    @virginmedia my internet/tele are not working! Second time in the space of a few weeks

  • lucindaduffy12 Lucinda Duffy (@lucindaduffy12) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Anthony did arrive but very late and well after our 'slot' - he was under the impression customer services would have let us know? Such a shame to have had to complain, as he was so efficient and sorted things for us. Communication is key though!

    @NOWHelpTeam awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • AlexxTheTiger Alexx 🏳️‍🌈 (@AlexxTheTiger) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Not really, I checked your system on my virgin media page and it reports no problems on the area, I already restarted and rested my modem, more then once time

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I've checked the service status yesterday and twice today. I have screenshoted the result in my earlier tweet on this thread. What do I do now?

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi John, I did that yesterday & the result was Virgin booked an engineer to attend Monday. However you texted this morning saying due to issues you had to cancel the Engineers visit that was booked for Monday. No further update or comms were given. What do we do? PLEASE HELP

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Done that and it says no known issues. Why have you cancelled our engineer visit tomorrow. Please help

  • boardchik Katy Molyneux (@boardchik) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down again!!! I don’t need this when working from home! And before you ask I have done every step you ask us to do!!

  • AlexxTheTiger Alexx 🏳️‍🌈 (@AlexxTheTiger) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia But that costumer service was abysmal, the person took ages to reply, and when it did, tried to sell me the same internet package I have for more than what I pay currently even...I don't want to have to upgrade my package to "fix" my internet, I just want the speeds I hired

  • johncoxonmedia John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Have reported to you here that independent engineer confirmed my connection is OK but hub 3 is faulty & needs replacing. You advised phone 150 again to book engineer. Your system does not enable that just offers fault trouble shoot txt message.

  • SteJoycey10 Stephen Joyce (@SteJoycey10) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Yeh if I want to sit in a queue for hours then get through to someone with no really English language skills! Virgin great when it works and awful if you ever have a problem ! Why don’t you call me?

  • GregBarnes2 (((Greg Barnes))) (@GregBarnes2) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia Once again my sim card isn’t working. Please don’t ask me to call the service centre, I’ve tried and haven’t got that long to live. Happy to email you details if you give me an address.

    @virginmedia Hi Guy's, we've had no broadband for 36 hours now and you've just text to say you've had to cancel our engineer call tomorrow! What's going on? No broadband and no communication

  • andy4321 Andy Collier (@andy4321) reported from Stockport, England

    I'd never switch broadband to @virginmedia after hearing about their unfair charges on @joelycett #virginmedia

  • markroberts0007 Mark Roberts (@markroberts0007) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia hi there, we’ve had internet issues since we went to sleep last night. We live in m30. There is a flashing green light on the box, I’ve been on your website to try and reset the box etc. Have you any idea what’s going on?

    Anybody else having problems with Gifs and Videos on Twitter since yesterday? On my iPad and J’s Samsung tablet now. App and browser. Everything else works. Seems to be related to Virgin Media as fine on my Business PC which is connected over BT Broadband.

  • lcwatt07 lesley watt (@lcwatt07) reported

    @virginmedia yet again, TV froze and turned off. Restarted tivo box but still not restarting. Nearly a daily occurance now and your staff weren't much help on the phone

  • NoSwearingHere7 mu🅱️z‼️ (@NoSwearingHere7) reported

    @virginmedia the problem has been identified, surely you can fix it, yeah?

  • kath_u22 Kathryn (@kath_u22) reported

    @virginmedia We now have an engineer booked in after having to call you back again however we still have not received a call back from the manager as promised as there is a large list of complaints ongoing. This has now been promised twice to us and just adds to the ongoing issues

  • jamestoml1 James Tomlinson 💙 (@jamestoml1) reported

    Hi @virginmedia it's proving quite difficult to cancel an install after a house move. Can you help?

  • simonhancock_uk Simon Hancock (@simonhancock_uk) reported

    @Ponty100mph @virginmedia If they had originally installed when they were supposed to, would you have met the minimum period obligation? If it was entirely VM's fault that the start of your contract was delayed, it looks pretty poor for them to impose minimum term penalties.

  • alison_coole Alison (@alison_coole) reported

    @virginmedia The broadband seems ok but this is extremely annoying 3 times in one week !! How long is it expected to take to rectify the Twitter issue as it’s now over 24 hours ?
