  • Richardjmoses Richard Moses (@Richardjmoses) reported from Brookmans Park, England

    @virginmedia I raised the complaint via the online portal as instructed. There are also notes on my account about this. It’s about the intermittent service since June....

  • ricky_heavens Ricky Heavens (@ricky_heavens) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Still not working. Over 24 hours now and still no tv or WiFi

  • umar1s Umar Shareef (@umar1s) reported from Southall, England

    @virginmedia Your service check link keeps saying the same thing but keeps forwarding the estimated fix time in increments of 4 hours, making it seem like an engineer is working round the clock... But we see no-one on our street. I've never had a service cut off for so long + no updates!(2/2)

  • NikHunt_ Nik Hunt (@NikHunt_) reported from Paddington, England

    @virginmedia Checked earlier - no faults found on the auto test. Also rebooted router to no avail. Issues affecting both WiFi and cabled connections, as well as the video on demand apps on the TiVo (amazon prime video was slow and laggy)

  • buttertam80 TamTamm♥ (@buttertam80) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia your networks been down and wasting my own data! Since yesterday 5pm since I’ve come home! Rediculous! Apparently whenbwe called at 8 was told 1-2 hours what’s your problem! Need to change services as this keeps happening

    @virginmedia ... lost all TV, Broadband and Telephone in UB10 8SJ... your operative said it would be intermittent until 30th September!!!!_- Been down over an hour now and my wife and I are trying to run a business... and it’s all in the cloud!

  • umar1s Umar Shareef (@umar1s) reported from Southall, England

    @virginmedia I've tried rebooting as well. The problem persists.

  • The_Photographr Imran ® (@The_Photographr) reported from Southall, England

    @britpakgirl @virginmedia I had issues with them earlier this year when working from home. Two days without access. Had to resort to sitting in a coffee shop to try and get work done.

  • EreiraS steven ereira (@EreiraS) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It was from broadband team the gentleman name was Robert. He was not listening to anything I had to say he was beginning to annoy me so I had to put the phone down before I said something I would regret

  • Laurencrabs Lauren © 💅🏼 (@Laurencrabs) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reply, I got through in the end. Was calling regarding poor WiFi coverage in my flat, and the more pressing matter of our internet being down for over 24 hours - engineer booked for Friday but not an ideal experience so far with this broadband!

  • RobbarnesModel Rob Barnes (@RobbarnesModel) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia probably the worst customer service going 👎🏻

  • EreiraS steven ereira (@EreiraS) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I telephone back in June to report an issue only to be fobbed off by one of your call representatives. Then I telephoned again in August because my issue had got worse to be promised a manager will call me back on several occasions no one did.

  • Darryl1712 Darryl Robertson (@Darryl1712) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    Really wish sky did good broadband. The level of service from @virginmedia is shocking

  • umar1s Umar Shareef (@umar1s) reported from Southall, England

    @virginmedia Your service check link keeps saying the same thing but keeps forwarding the estimated fix time in increments of 4 hours, making it seem like an engineer is working round the clock... But we see no-one on our street. I've never had a service cut off for so long + no updates!

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It’s not internet related. If it was the all my other devices would have an issue. Tried on numerous occasions to reset the router but it hasn’t fixed the problem. It’s going to need an engineer.
