    @virginmedia That doesn't work when you have to use a work proxy filter and you think it not on your network, and when going to that website on another device it's disabled, this is why I asked for it to be removed as disabled for you is not disabled.

  • OlaAgbaimoni Ola Agbaimoni (@OlaAgbaimoni) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi please send an engineer to my house to sort out the useless Hub 4 box that replaced my reliable and efficient Hub 3. I have asked the community for a solution and they say get engineer out to separate the 2 and 5 GEXT. Fed up of paying good £ for a crap service!

  • jamrockfcvets Jamrock Vets FC (@jamrockfcvets) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Why do you offer a text service ? Then respond 24 hours later or don’t respond at all.I spent in totally 2 hours on the phone trying to speak to virgin media , but if I was a new Customer you pick up the phone within 2 mins . My broadband is down again

  • Nada_Altobaishi Nada Altobaishi (@Nada_Altobaishi) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia I am so disappointed with the service. I moved to my house in August and joined Virgin Media because I thought they had the best service. To date we are not connected and the date we were given is 29th December!! Point to note that we have no internet in the house!

  • o0MattE0o Matthew John Earley BBC (hons) (@o0MattE0o) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Hi is there any way remove your "Advanced Network Error Search", it is stopping me access company related sites, if I want to search I would use #Bing or #Google. Look forward to having this removed not disabled from my account ASAP.

  • a_peezy22 Not Alex (@a_peezy22) reported from Windsor, England

    Another day, another @virginmedia outage 🙃

  • jamrockfcvets Jamrock Vets FC (@jamrockfcvets) reported from Ealing, England

    @MendingTheGap @virginmedia Hello Sir , I have wasted 2 hours trying to ring them . If you wanna signed up you are speaking to a member a staff in less then a minute, try and cancel different story all together,serious go with SKY who will Assit you alot better

  • FieldsyUK Chris Fields (@FieldsyUK) reported from Chorleywood, England

    @ItsDaveClayton @virginmedia Mesh Wi-fi is the only way Dave. Most ISP routers are a bag of crap, turn their wifi off and use an external mesh system. Obviously if you’re getting 12Mbps wired at the router you’ll likely need to speak to Virgin.

  • LisaYidetteWHL Lisa 😺🛍⚽️💃💅✌🥦🥕🌽 (@LisaYidetteWHL) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginhelp Virgin Media.FOUR DAYS now. They make you hang on forever then offer you a link to your mobile, and when you message on that as instructed, they never come back to you. Absolute disgrace. My bill has gone up by another 20 quid a month. I will NOT be paying £120 for this service!

  • rana_banana Rana Brightman (@rana_banana) reported from London, England

    @k_co @virginmedia That is insane. Urgh. We’re hostages to **** service with the promise of the fastest speeds ever!!!

  • maiku_akahane 赤羽マイク (@maiku_akahane) reported from Kensington, England

    I feel down as my @virginmedia internet.

  • rana_banana Rana Brightman (@rana_banana) reported from London, England

    As customer service standards go, @virginmedia sucks badly. They need to seriously ask themselves, is letting someone wait 45 mins and counting for someone to help with a technical fault acceptable? NO IT ISN’T. HEEEELLLLOOOOO???!! WHEN ARE YOU PICKING UP??!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • jamrockfcvets Jamrock Vets FC (@jamrockfcvets) reported from Ealing, England

  • ThemapNeil Neil Taylor (@ThemapNeil) reported

    @virginmedia good to see no service on a Saturday night. No TV or Broadband in BR6. Compensation? Only if it’s off for a full two days. A step closer to signing up for Sky. #hopeless

  • andrewjhirst A H (@andrewjhirst) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, yea we’ve done all the recommended stages, including service status. Our particular issue is that on TV Guide there is no programme list as it just says To be announced against every channel. Further more we are unable to record any programmes.

  • jamesmcgraw James (@jamesmcgraw) reported

    @virginmedia Hi- there seems to be no service where I live (N10) and no indication of when this will be fixed?

  • leobarnes Leo Barnes (@leobarnes) reported

    @virginmedia And this is what is confusing. Different options for different customers… and nobody in VM seems aligned on what is possible. I’m afraid I’m seriously considering the competition as I’ll probably get a better deal as a new customer (despite being with VM for over 15 years).

  • justinberkovi Justin Berkovi (@justinberkovi) reported

    @virginmedia Any ETA on service coming back online in N10? Has been OFF ALL DAY!!!!!! 🤬

  • AgentVettelOO5 Evie Vettel 💋👑🫧 (@AgentVettelOO5) reported

    Just let you guys know that my data has ru out and my internet isn’t connecting to my phone. So I might have to cancel my broadband EE and joined BT or Virgin media.

  • myrnamahfouz myrnamahfouz (@myrnamahfouz) reported

    @virginmedia my 4g mobile data has been off since 2 pm today and I cannot make calls or send smesses from my mobile phone. What is wrong with your service?

  • zynubi Paul (@zynubi) reported

    @michaelberry @virginmedia They have always been fantastic to me in regards to sending engineers and QOS, just crap in customer service and prices out of contract. Just signed up for FTTP now so cancelling services after 14 years with Virgin.

  • outrobii gab⁷ ☕️ (@outrobii) reported

    Still very offended by Virgin Media for the stream breaking down during best song Idol 😔 I thought we had a better connection than that (quite literally in all sense of the word)

  • Anthony80089731 Anthony (@Anthony80089731) reported
