    @virginmedia Last time, our wifi was down for over a week. I spoke to an agent on the phone who was utterly useless. You never offer any solutions. I’m starting to think that the only way for you to take any action is if I cancel my DD.

    @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.

    @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

    @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 Can you please fix the broadband in the NW9 0TE area. Its been 5 days already. 😪

    @SilentMugger @virginmedia It's been over 24 hours now and I've now been told it will be 10am tomorrow. I'm in North London, not in the wilderness. Its shocking that there's no Internet in the city. Maybe there service is getting worse.

    @virginmedia ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! I’ve worked with major computer and ISP’s over my time but by far Virgin Media is the worst! I pay £111 a month and not one person can help. Intermittent internet for a month but they say just wait another week it may be back on!

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

    @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 I’ve had REALLY bad connectivity all week. Please can you help? Have reset device to little avail. Ty

    Sid M (@smahes4) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia The reason given to us that you don’t want to put extra 10mtr cable to service 3 properties. That’s a shame on you and a classic lie that you say on your advert regarding coverage @richardbranson @Ofcom

  • brobbo55
    robbo (@brobbo55) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia sort out the wifi in AL4. Been down two days now joke of a provider

  • morish1
    maureen robert (@morish1) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Customer Service is shocking. It’s now almost 6 hours since I asked on WhatsApp for email address to be corrected and I’m still waiting for a response.

  • LauraVCook1980
    Laura Cook (@LauraVCook1980) reported from Hatfield, England

    @virginmedia disappointed after 10 years of being a loyal customer that I can’t pause my monthly payments for 11 weeks while I’m not at home and no one using the broadband or TV!

    @virginmedia I am loosing signal intermittently. Not great!

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

  • gemmak500
    ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia To be honest you probably can’t, I’ve been this route often previously and nothing changes. Made to jump thru the same basic hoops time & again by staff members who don’t understand the systems, it’s a perpetual, frustrating loop. Still my service is dreadful.

  • angelstorm13
    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

    Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported

    @AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.

    @VirginMediaNews Note to Virgin Media : stop platforming that religious zealot and fantasist - even at the opportunity cost re: a young journalist's tv screen time & professional exposure. He's on his way back to prison when another warrant comes down from the bench, in coming days and weeks.

    @virginmedia I have an engineer visit booked but it’s not showing on the app. I’ve raised a complaint about that but my complaint isn’t showing on the app. I started a live chat and was asked to move to WhatsApp’s, but didn’t receive any comms. How can I get a response from you?
