  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

  • michaeltruefitt Michael Truefitt (@michaeltruefitt) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you planning on giving all your customers a discount for your constant broadband issues and not delivering what people are paying for? I see it was fixed earlier but it’s gone down once again in the last hour. It seems to be a daily occurrence now.

  • DjDno Dean Blavins (@DjDno) reported from Chadwell, England

    Ffs, there it goes again!! Sort your **** out @virginmedia

  • W4lshy_85 jennie walsh (@W4lshy_85) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia once again absolute outstanding useless customer care 👌🏻 #virginmedia #gotosky 👍🏼

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    @virginmedia If you can sort out the compensation for the 2 weeks loss of service, that'd be great 👍

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    FINALLY!!! After raising a serious complaint with @virginmedia with the prospect of the ombudsman getting involved... They've finally got my services up and running Now all that remains is for them to sort out some compensation and then we can pretend this never happened

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    2 weeks now and I still haven't got any service from @virginmedia!!!! I'm starting to think they're doing this on purpose

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    I'm seriously considering cancelling @virginmedia!!! I'm getting ****** off with them. 11 days without a service is unacceptable!!!

  • DenhamKite Denham Kite (@DenhamKite) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia - what number do I call to talk to a real person to sort this rubbish before I cancel?

  • ollieg21296 Ollie (@ollieg21296) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @virginmedia Hi guys, I’ve put my UK sim card in my phone while I’m back in the country (I’m still paying the contract) - but I’ve had the sim in for 9 hours and I’m still not receiving any service. Can you assist please?

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia @O2 @peterkay_co_uk I think your service is a laughing show. Years and nothing ever fixed finally time to move on.

  • MonikP_97 Monik Patel (@MonikP_97) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    @virginmedia Definitely the worst broadband provider. How are you meant to wfh with no internet ??

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm looking at the new Sky Stream service that starts on 18th October combined with Three 5G broadband. Both offer rolling 1 month contracts

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia So whilst on the phone you put us through to get a dongle as an emergency and you tried to charge us £39! Wow the cheek of it!

  • moodykels Kelsey✨ (@moodykels) reported

    @virginmedia Hi my Virgin Media Broadband has been down all day and all I get is check back in 24h on the website?! Not any information ?

  • morse64 ian Morson (@morse64) reported

    @virginmedia what an absolute joke... cant access online due to this new Virgin media / O2 login. I do not have access to the email account and rang customer services to change it. Still no joy

  • rockorstone rockorstone (@rockorstone) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with virgin media this year, so poor and it has gone down again estimated fix 6 aug!!!! #virginmedia

  • scaramanga3ball Real Reptilian💙 (@scaramanga3ball) reported

    @virginmedia What's happening virgin media? Can't gain access to my account because you've decided to make me link it to an O2 id account, I'm not at O2 customer. What is the point of offering a service which clearly doesn't work.

  • Sherl06303 David Holmes (@Sherl06303) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t think I have the time and dedication needed to be a Virgin Media customer any more. Sky beckons.

  • womaninblue1050 Marilyn (@womaninblue1050) reported

    @AlisonLMercer @O2 @virginmedia Yes there are loads affected. There’s a Facebook group specifically for problems with Virgin and this problem is highlighted significantly.

  • womaninblue1050 Marilyn (@womaninblue1050) reported

    @virginmedia @chaitu99 Unbelievable that it’s taking so long. The trouble shooting step in your link is saying to register for a Virgin Media account but we already have an account.

  • mjaanensen mjaanensen (@mjaanensen) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone contact me. I no longer have access to the e-mail address associated with my account, therefore cannot login to my virgin media and cannot change the e-mail address associated. Help! Also your internet is awful at the moment but can't run any tests

  • Christo24382100 Christopher Aveyard (@Christo24382100) reported

    @virginmedia Believe it or not, still no change. It says that the email linked to my account is [object OBJECT] so I can’t link it to my virgin media 02. I’ve told god knows how many advisors this and no one is helping. I’m getting tempted to cancel and go back to sky

  • Christo24382100 Christopher Aveyard (@Christo24382100) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been with Virgin Media for two weeks and haven’t been able to log into my account, I’ve spoken to so many advisors who tell me to wait anywhere between 24-72 hours and try again. Terrible costumer service so far, no one seems to have a clue what they’re doing.
