  • damawa42 Daniel W (@damawa42) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Also "we're" not "were" Yes pls - can you give update on "Trouble Call 12165447"? I was given that as a reference number for issue engineers were investigating; I received a text saying it was fixed but the problem persists. Also - insane that your bot asks for bank sort code!

  • mikegrimmel Mike Grimmel (@mikegrimmel) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia utterly dreadful service which has been deteriorating week on week until today I have 350Mb at the speed of dial up and a TV service that just doesn’t work. Sort it out

  • darthteddy Suren Perera (@darthteddy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I trust you won’t be charging me for the time your service is down and even compensating me because I am unable report to work and do my job?

  • karenlilylion karen butcher (@karenlilylion) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I just need the service i pay for to work and not to wait 50 mins for someone to answer the phone and not to be lied to that is all

  • infolakedistri1 info@lakedistrictcottages.net (@infolakedistri1) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I have now been without broadband for over 24 hours and on your service status page, it says I have no problem. When I call, you admit the problem but give no indication when it will be resolved. When can I expect broadband in Nw3?

  • stephen_j_moran Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia All the customer service people I've spoken to (by mobile phone) have been very nice and tried their best with tests and notes on the file etc. The work on cabling seems to be a law into itself and repeatedly tried & fails, as far as I can gather, to though that is only surmise.

  • ritu2009 Irma Ritu Arora (@ritu2009) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia horrendous customer service, no wifi despite 100mb speed I am paying for

  • DanielSSmith DanielSSmith FRSA (@DanielSSmith) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia multiple houses on my street are down but all being told there is no problem and must be with ourselves only. Clearly it's not. Trying to work and home school and can’t today. Se136ew

  • AdahParris Adah Parris (she/her) (@AdahParris) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia wifi outage again in SE London. This has been happening for the last few days but the website service status says there are no issues. What’s happening and when will it be fixed?

  • Courtneyxx Courtney Lynn Murray née Hauseman (@Courtneyxx) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia No idea? can you let us know and provide compensation for a decade of terrible service?!

  • nadeemshassam Nadeem S. Hassam (@nadeemshassam) reported from Hillingdon, England

    Virgin Media putting up prices. Under the guise of network upgrades! “like it or leave it” they say. Fair enough, “leave” it is. @SkyUK @bt_uk I’m coming to one of you! #leavevirginmedia #virginmedia

  • KarenGerardi Karen Gerardi (@KarenGerardi) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia television viewing is painful ! Most channels are scrambled . Been a problem on and off for a month. How do we sort !!!!

  • dcsender Dominic Sender (@dcsender) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia please can you advise what is happening with your WiFi service in the NW2 area. WiFi keeps dropping out. Impossible to get through to anybody and on the meantime I have lots of work to do.

  • harrydotcom_ HK (@harrydotcom_) reported from St Albans, England

    Hi @virginmedia having constant broadband issues AL1 St Albans. I’ve logged numerous calls and now the text service isn’t responding to me. Internet cuts in and out all day. Was told would be fixed on 13th but now no one is answering the phone. I’ve tried to call again today but

  • rindalobinson Linda Robinson (@rindalobinson) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia Have been losing internet connection intermittently for the past 2 weeks and unable to work/homeschool consistently. Is there a known issue?

  • CuttingDawn Dawn Cutting (@CuttingDawn) reported from Bricket Wood, England

    @virginmedia terrible service, I’ve tried calling and online chat to no avail. You’re blaming Covid but surely by now you’ve sorted out working from home or office. I need to speak to you but you avoid all customers!

  • andrewclemens78 Andrew Clemens (@andrewclemens78) reported from Datchet, England

    @SkiProJG Never had anywhere near what we are supposed to get and we are about to get a price hike soon to thank us for being a loyal customer. Can I get hold of anyone to discuss this at @virginmedia’s end? Can I f...!!

  • darthteddy Suren Perera (@darthteddy) reported from London, England

    So @virginmedia is down again. App says everything is fine but clearly not.

  • Ryanharwood81 Ryan Harwood (@Ryanharwood81) reported

    @TechFlowTweets Hey Alex I have a few questions we have just moved and our house doesn’t have any Ethernet cables ran though so everything’s WiFi pretty much. I have the virgin media super hub 3 in modem mod and a Netgear X8 AC8500 router. The WiFi signal is ok but stuff buffers.

  • AIiFSA A (@AIiFSA) reported

    Virgin media been down for 3 hours now 💤💤

  • nathanstark__ Nathan (@nathanstark__) reported

    Virgin media wifi is the worst thing to ever exist @virginmedia

  • SerendipityShah ANFIELD SOUTH (@SerendipityShah) reported

    If you’re thinking of buying a broadband service, my advice, stick to @BTCare they are the best. Avoid @virginmedia at all cost. They will steal money you and not give you a service in return. You have been warned. #homeschooling #EducationDay #internetshutdown   @MailOnline

  • Scatzy81 Louise Mitchell (@Scatzy81) reported

    @virginmedia another day without service and another day without luck getting through on the phone to virgin. 4th December this was raised as an issue and I'm still waiting for support

  • weirdh0e laurenspurr♡ (@weirdh0e) reported

    @acs_shawty @virginmedia my mums had the same issue. no response to the emails she’s sent complaining either...apparently even if you cancel your direct debit they can still take money out of your account !? x

  • ian_slowey Ian Slowey (@ian_slowey) reported

    @virginmedia Main reason is cost. My 12 month contract expired and my package doubled in price. I can get a similar package for £22-£25 for fibre broadband. My Virgin bill is now £50. New Virgin customer can get a faster connection than I have for £26.

  • jamesgblackwell James Blackwell (@jamesgblackwell) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Virgin Media Ireland down / outage since 23:30 (over an hour at this time). Cable Modem can't get IP address upon reboot.

  • DJJoshuaRoberts Joshua Roberts (@DJJoshuaRoberts) reported

    @virginmedia have taken £101 from my account, yet they have failed to provide a working service for over 5 weeks now. @Ofcom please advise, I’m sick to the back teeth of this. 👎

  • sctsman64 brian (@sctsman64) reported
