• 
  Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported 2 minutes ago from Hatfield, England

  Used to tell my colleagues on @virginmedia to switch to @BT to overcome reliability issues. Moved house and little choice to pick Virgin. No internet or TV for 7 days, fix due by 1pm today. Queried at 1.30pm and 6.30pm, assured it would be today, told to relax. Frankie says BS.

  @virginmedia what is the problem with #broadband this morning?

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 9 minutes ago 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 is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

• 
  jeanne smith (@jeannesmith1) reported 14 minutes ago from Hillingdon, England

  @virginmedia will lose my money as a loyal customer of 20 years standing, by slapping a 120% rise on my next contract due to start in November! Who else has seen such a massive percentage rise?

  RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported 20 minutes ago from London Colney, England

  @virginmedia Now I am told they will send me a new hub as they do think I have problems T the house . That’s why VM booked a engineer it was not me who did it . Time will tell if the goal post moves again today

  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 20 minutes ago from Watford, England

  @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported 22 minutes ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days

  Daymo Alexander (@Daymoalexander) reported 23 minutes ago from Hemel Hempstead, England

  @virginmedia I think @YodelOnline needs a good kick up the behind for being super late and not even letting the customer know! Not a great start so far #newcustomer

  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 26 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia I’m afraid not. I did ask to speak to a supervisor/manager and they said they would submit this request. My question is: is there actually a fault or is this an ongoing issue? It seems to be the latter, tbh.

• 
  ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported 28 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia There is no link. No one appears to know what’s going on and there is no ownership or continuity of help. As the paying customer we are supposed to just wait, lose business and accept the situation.

  @Charlie_A_Gee @virginmedia They don’t give a damn, they’re virtually a monopoly, Ditch them and go to sky.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 30 minutes ago 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/

  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 36 minutes ago from Watford District, England

  Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

• 
  John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported 37 minutes ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

• 
  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 42 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia No, I’m trying to find out the status of my complaint received by Virgin on 30 September. I’ve had zero communication or acknowledgment of it.

  Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported 55 minutes ago from Hemel Hempstead, England

  @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!

  @virginmedialife @virginmedia The worst service from any company I have ever used. I would like to be removed from your business accounts.

  Little_Missy2. MA. History🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🌹 (@Missy_Ports) reported 57 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @SilentMugger @virginmedia Yes I'm shocked too, didn't think it would be this long & they best fix it as I can't work and I'm using all my mobile data to try and contact them. Really bad service.

• 
  Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported 60 minutes ago from Hatfield, England

  Virgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

  aldo (@ukaldo2) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m completely disgusted. You hounded my 80-year-old mother with repeated calls until she cancelled her existing contract,only to then refuse to provide the new service. Why were no checks done upfront? You’ve now left her with no contract. Completely unacceptable.

  Serenity Solo Studios (@SerenitySoloDev) reported 7 minutes ago

  Virgin Media may have the best broadband speeds for me, but lying salesmen and Virgins policies really has me thinking about cancelling during this cooldown period. I was told 1000mbps was the maximum speed here. I found out it was 2000mbps. I tried to change as I was unaware of this at the time, due to what the saleman told me, but they wanted to charge me £88 per month or so for the 2gb package when the 1gb only costs £33 per month. Even though the website says £55 per month for the 2gb package. I then asked about the upload spped matching the download speed. At first, I was told this was a different package, not an addon, so it would cost £88 per month in total. What? I then threatened to leave and rejoin with a new package as I was in the cooling off period. I was then told this was an addon for £6 per month. They can't change anything on my package though apparently. It now has to be sent to another team to check through this and I have to wait 5-10 days. This is the most confusing company I have ever dealt with. When joining Sky, I could change my package at any time and still be given the in contract discount. Sky may have slower speeds, but @Virgin have to have to the worst policies that kind of makes me regret changing over. If they say I still have to pay almost triple the cost, I may just take the loss of the broadband speed and move back over to Sky. Virgin are trying to rip me off as their sales representative who came to the door and sold me the package never gave the full information to me and said 1gb was their highest package they had for my area.

  Barry Devlin (@irishbazdev) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Two months + before I get contacted by 02/Virgin Media regarding my ongoing complaint and all you can offer me for broken promises is £20. No phone calls before today and you are a communication company. Not good enough!

  @virginmedia I've just had a lovely chat with Kabeer to renew my contract. He was polite, friendly and helpful. Please make sure he's praised for his customer service. 5🌟

  Mark Aitken (@sparky0710) reported 32 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Still no Internet. A full day without Internet and no update as to what is the issue or when likely to be resolved. Definitely be leaving after contract. WFH and this isn't first outage. Never had this with previous provider.

  @Mickskinz @DavidPNoble63 They will enforce it with isp's quite easily. Just fine virgin media if they fail to act on frequent ip address switching
