  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Great! In the middle of a worldwide pandemic and the service is down since this morning in Didcot. With so many people working from home and you let everyone down. I am waiting to finish my contract with you and bye-bye. You won’t see me ever again !!!

  • ajthesheepdocto Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England

    @virginmedia Thank you - when I run the TV check it says there is an issue. Guess we just need to sit it out. Sadly we appear to be the only ones in the area with an issue (have asked around)

  • SmithRodwsmith1 Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I got through & they ran some tests & everything was fine(:-) but it was suggested that maybe there is some Network maintenance somewhere & that when it’s completed the Top Green Flashing light on the Router will go back to normal🤞🙏👍

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Milton, England

    @virginmedia I have been without internet since yesterday. It is really frustrating in these difficult times when people need to work from home. Impossible to talk to anyone!!! Still don’t know when the problem will get sorted!!!

  • JurassicGarden Char (@JurassicGarden) reported from Didcot, England

    The worst part of Lockdown wasn't the loneliness, the boredom or the agitation. It was seeing ******* Birdseye, McCain's and Virgin Media shoving happy family lockdown vibes down your throat to advertise themselves.

  • a1_nos A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Abingdon, England

    @CloopR @virginmedia Just horrid. I had the same problem with Vodafone. In the end the only way I resolved it was a good friend was golfing buddies with the CEO otherwise I don’t think I’d have sorted it.

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia And yes I called to your outage number, apparently there is no known issue in the area. Even though last night at 11.30pm in the app the status check showed every service is down, even though they weren't down last night. This happens only during working hours.

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I have has my your chat open for 24 hours, sent a text message 36 hours ago and no response to either. As a new customer, with a query, this is not a good start.

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Yes. We have been without internet in the area since yesterday and sit nice yesterday you are saying you will get it fix in the next 4 hours. Just now, another text that we’ll have to wait till 8 o’clock. This a joke, honestly 😡

  • ajthesheepdocto Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England

    @virginmedia upgrade to 360 has caused no end of issues - slow WiFi, slower TV, losing saved programmes, and customer services very unhelpful. When we suggested complaining they hung up. #virgin #nocustomerservice

  • shaun1968 shaun harley (@shaun1968) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia I'm expecting a replacement set top box to replace a broken tivo. Told it will be delivered Weds. but I've had no confirmation email and not showing in my virgin app. Can anyone help

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Milton, England

    @virginmedia I have already written to you twice in here and you just don’t bother to answer. Impossible to communicate with Virgin by any means. No customer services whatsoever!

  • a1_nos A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Abingdon, England

    @CloopR @virginmedia Also had a huge issue with Together Energy who owed me £500 and wouldn’t pay it. Eventually contacted finance lady at Daily Mail who contacted them and I got my money. Will dig her details out if I can. She was very helpful.

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia You apologize??? Really??? In the middle of a pandemic , I am a key worker and had to work from home today band I have missed all the meetings. I wish I could cancel my contract and had nothing to do with Virgin ever again!

  • SmithRodwsmith1 Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia Hi I downloaded the latest Update for my Apple Phone & ever since then when i click on my Virginmedia Hub3 my phone says it’s connected to the network but has weak security I’ve never known it to say that before😱

  • acikbasufuk bannedbird (@acikbasufuk) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia the worse customer service and layer I never ever buy their services again

  • ajthesheepdocto Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England

    From @Snottlegroover I’ve had/having Virgin issues again. Anybody else in OX12 area?Since upgrading our box it’s been a complete nightmare. Definitely won’t be renewing contract this year. #VirginMedia #virginmediadown #virginmediainternetissues

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia I just want to cancel my contract. You are not a reliable company. You can’t even bother to speak with the customers that pay you.

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down in OX11 area.

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.

  • paulviola7 Paul Viola (@paulviola7) reported

    @virginmedia That 1 of the probs, you dial 150 and it goes straight to engaged or you end up waiting ages. Plus theres no option for customer service.

  • jay_warda Jay Warda ⚢BLM🏳️‍🌈 (@jay_warda) reported

    @virginmedia I still need to speak to customer services, so yes, I require the number

  • jamespatty93 James Pattinson (@jamespatty93) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, I’ve used the app before & all my devices are fixed in the same position. It’s not like I’m moving them to blackspots around the house. For example I’ll be using my Smart TV, then it’ll say “there is no network connection” at random times

  • owenspinner Owen (@owenspinner) reported

    @virginmedia As many of us are working from home; we rely on your internet to get our jobs done. Saying an issue will be fixed within hours on the 13th, to it still persisting now is far from the transparency we should expect as customers

  • gchicco 𝒢𝒾𝒶𝓃𝒻𝓇𝒶𝓃𝒸𝑜 𝒞𝒽𝒾𝒸𝒸𝑜 (@gchicco) reported

    @virginmedia I'm trying to - the connection is very unstable and it's taking forever to load. It was ok-ish until 10-15 minutes ago.

  • amylouisestone Amy Stone (@amylouisestone) reported

    @bt_uk Yeah I’m aware most service providers use your lines - which means I have no choice but to pay @virginmedia’s increasingly extortionate prices. It’s a shame because I was desperate to switch but your service is far below what is considered good in this day and age.

  • carlapercival carla (@carlapercival) reported

    @virginmedia Can’t ever seem to get through and my internet service is terrible I and trying to do home schooling for my daughter who needs to be online for school and this is now becoming a problem. If she can’t get online it goes down as an absence

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall 🏳️‍🌈 (@KeithBursnall) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been up and down constantly and rebooting takes around an hour each time. Seriously looking at other, more reliable providers.

  • iamnb Nelofur (@iamnb) reported

    @virginmedia been trying to speak to anyone in the ‘movers’ department numerous times in the last few days and each time during being transferred to that department the line clears!! would say to any1 thinking of moving to virgin media to think again! Awful service still waiting

  • Shevylatic John Abernethy (@Shevylatic) reported

    @virginmedia Tried the text number you gave me without success. Time is now getting short and I need some answers. I have been a customer of Virgin for many years, and I think that I have not been treated well. Advise please.
