    @virginmedia No Internet for 48 hrs and can't work, will you be crediting customers for lack of service?

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

    @virginmedia Good morning, This is the 3rd day with no broadband. You have conflicting messages as to whether there is an issue or not, and whether it has been fixed or not. I have been unable to speak to anyone or log a call out. Can someone please help

    @virginmedia It is incredible, what you're doing is just pushing the date on your service page to one week to another. We don't have Internet for two months now! What are your engineers doing? I am going to cancel your contract and I will go with an better provider. @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • paulusthegrey
    Paul Simmonds (@paulusthegrey) reported from Borehamwood, England

    @virginmedia I think I may have an idea what’s happened to your service in #borehamwood It looks like a kerbside box has been totalled by a drunk driver.

  • LinkedinMac
    Mac Laubscher (@LinkedinMac) reported from Bushey Heath, England

    @virginmedia any idea why services are down across the board in WD23 postcode area?

  • PaulswainDJ
    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia We have liftoff! Just spoke with a member of your team on the phone. Her name was Francis. She was fantastic! Sorted the problem out and applied a credit to my account. Buy her a drink now 🍷

    Virgin media down all over it seems… need #Internet what’s wrong with you @virginmedia

  • StephenCavinder
    Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported from Bricket Wood, England

    @virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Croxley Green, England

    @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

  • TinaReading
    TinaReadingEditor (@TinaReading) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia No and that's the problem. I need it for my grandsons 😪😪😪😪😪

    @SilentMugger @virginmedia Richard. don't bother. I've had various Internet providers and virgin is the worst. I've been without Internet for 23 hours and counting now and still can't get hold of anyone to help. I can't do my job and they appear to have issues all over the UK.

  • EnriqueGuadiz

    @virginmedia WiFi is an absolute total **** of a service! Reliable WiFi With the hub 5 bullshit! Should be thrown out of the window! No WiFi /service in HP2!

    @elisjames @virginmedia Used to have problems in Streatham with Virgin before we change provider. Needed a new router last time.

  • seanhannam
    seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia We’ve spoken to eight people to try and resolve our internet issues.We’ve ordered new boosters because the new service isn’t compatible with the old ones.We’re a ‘priority customer’ - the new boosters still haven’t arrived…So frustrating. Your service is appalling.

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Its a fault in the area, I have been given a fix time of 9am on the 19th for the landline and broadband, now my tv has gone down as well

  • 1SLToo
    Andy (@1SLToo) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    Merry Christmas to all at @virginmedia who have left all of us in WD3 area with no TV or Internet for over a week (predicted) and probably longer over the entire festive period, moving to sky in the new year due to your continuing rubbish service and customer service

  • seanhannam
    seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia Is this how you treat your ‘priority customers?’ During a cost of living crisis, we have chosen to stay with you, yet you can’t pull your finger out to look after your customers. I work from home but can’t fully use the service I’m paying for due to your incompetence.

  • hw_renewe
    Harold Wicks (@hw_renewe) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia “Have you checked for any issues in your area” No I have not checked that link. It is intermittent; one minute it is useable and next the internet service is missing; it is regular occurrence, happens almost daily!?

    @obbsie @virginmedia Very strange - must be something behind such an outage? Not seen anything of significance yet

  • AlbertoGiovino
    AG (@AlbertoGiovino) reported

    @virginmedia new customer here. Great customer service when you wanted my business. Now: Still not Wi-Fi-boosters are contracted to give. Impossible to get through to an agent, instead going in circles with your automated number. Web-messaging not responding. What do I do?

  • 9f46435cb75347b
    CombatPug (@9f46435cb75347b) reported

    @virginmedia My partner has been trying to contact your company via telephone for near 11hrs! Been on hold for over 3hrs at a time! Awful service we are experiencing contact me/us It is very important!

  • SiGallagher
    Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported

    @virginmedia How about 2.5 hours? Fix your website and app servers!! If you’re using AI coding or agents to run it, you need to stop, the whole thing is broken. I’m paying for this customer service as part of my package and getting no support at all

  • SiGallagher
    Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported

    So @virginmedia just ignore attempts to contact them on here, meaning a spam/fraud account replies in the comments to try and catch people out. In the absence of any actual help or comms from the official account, people will be caught out. And the website is broken so there's no other way to contact (phones are jam packed)

  • bravemongoose
    Alex Murray (@bravemongoose) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I am trying to cancel my account, but no one is answering your phones and your web chat totally broken. Do I really have to send you a letter to cancel?!

  • paulieg1066
    Paul goodhall (@paulieg1066) reported

  • crispinlewis

    @katybye007 @virginmedia Ive been waiting 3 hours!!!!! Need to renew/cancel contract urgently. This is beyond a joke!!!!!!!

  • billywi56359173
    billy winter (@billywi56359173) reported

    @virginmedia tried calling and it’s impossible to get through to anyone, my bill keeps going up and up and up and the service keeps getting worse and worse, so I try and swap supplier and now you’re charging me nearly £300 to leave early.
