  • S_Whitchurch
    Sharon Whitchurch 🇺🇦 (@S_Whitchurch) reported from Burntwood, England

    First World problems. Internet dropping. Or should I say, @virginmedia broadband. Its awful, drops completely three / four times a week. Sometimes several times a day for a few seconds. Can't wait until I can give notice!

  • leesteane7

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract, is there a phone number i can call as i got cut off last night?

  • Miss_Pumpkin666
    Caroline (@Miss_Pumpkin666) reported from Birmingham, England

    @sahinbrum @virginmedia I agree that their compensation policy is bs, I’ve found when I’ve had any outage affect me, they patch it quickly so the service gets intermittent while they work on a full fix, that way they don’t have to compensate, even if service drops out every couple minutes. BS really

    @pipjcee @virginmedia And not working again in Brum! #VirginMediaoutage

    @virginmedia They lied and told me that they had called the house phone. They hadn’t. They updated my contact number to my mobile. I chased this 4 days later and was told my number had been updated and the complaint was still open and I will receive a call. Guess what?

  • Rob_Hicks
    W1NGNUT (@Rob_Hicks) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't matter now, we've terminated the contract and joined Three home broadband. I just think it's disgusting that a customer of over 10 years doesn't get offered a deal as good as a new customer.

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • MartinWilko

    Virginmedia down Sutton Coldfield. National outage . Their website down, unable to report status. No reports or statements from Virgin media. Price rise of 13.8% #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • Andyoram25
    Andy Oram (@Andyoram25) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    Trying to watch #LIVWOL but pic quality on ITV4 is awful. Tried ITV X app & not any better. The Virgin Media ITV X app isn't working. This is poor but not unexpected from ITV who just cannot do digital stuff.

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  • robchippyman
    Rob Chipman (@robchippyman) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s on both WiFi and wired. At this present moment I’m unable to get ANY network from the router on both.

  • DeanCondliffe
    dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. This whole conversation is about VM saying they will contact me to discuss my complaint and VM thinking it’s ok not to call and the complaint will just fizzle out. Do you have an email address I can write to please?

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m going to but I know I won’t get anywhere anyway the customer never gets anywhere

  • BeardPunk
    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

  • GodivaGuidedogs
    GodivaPuppyAppeal (@GodivaGuidedogs) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia Mainly because you’re now too expensive, called retention team and was offered a derisory £4 discount. Enquired about new streaming service, agent knew nothing about it

  • redron1975
    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia so what crap excuse u got today for us in the ws10 area? Internet down again. Honestly if you were a guard dog nothing would be safe. Even less reliable than the weather forecast.

  • ___Mezzala
    Riz 🌹🇬🇧 (@___Mezzala) reported from Birmingham, England

    CANNOT WAIT until we leave @VirginMedia in a few months time. Non stop internet issues for months now. I’d urge everyone to swerve Virgin Media. Better companies out there who do more and cost less.

    Lewis Byers (@lewisbyers92) reported

    @O2 keep having sign in attempt emails from virgin media o2. I’ve reported and was allegedly getting a call back from you (never happened) and if I try to sign in to my o2 account, it always asks me for a pin and as if it’s the first time logging in every time. Sort it out ffs

  • Barbiknow
    Abbey (@Barbiknow) reported

    @virginmedia In the kitchen it’s very bad, bad in the bathroom, worse upstairs and it’s very frustrating. I just upgraded to a faster bandwidth but I haven’t seen a single difference except for that I am paying more money.

  • Blinkfan180
    Robin (@Blinkfan180) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Terrible service. Internet would regularly drop at least once a day. Been on gigaclear and Internet has gone down twice in 10 months. Speeds comparable too. Also use sky stream. All good too.

  • Borgbunny
    Dave or David (@Borgbunny) reported

    @virginmedia could you give us more information as to why the predicted time of resolution for fixing the service outage in Kent is 8pm tonight? Does it take that long to really reboot everything?

  • daniel18921892
    Daniel (@daniel18921892) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Confused because they have literally stated they sent you a return pack? I’ve been with them for years and have never had an issue with them. Suppose it’s beucase I’m not a **** like you clearly are

  • mostly_sleepy
    Kat (@mostly_sleepy) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They never said anything about wanting our broken 2nd TiVO back (had been broken unknown amount of time, so cancelled), and we were going to take it to get WEEE'd. Seeing this I'm glad we put it off long enough that we needed a VM engineer for something else and gave it to him!

  • MrZacJamesB
    Mr B’s History (@MrZacJamesB) reported

    @virginmedia has had at least 3 outages in the past week in my area. Becoming all too common and I work from home… my phone signal (for data usage) with O2 is also conveniently incredibly poor. Is there something we should be aware of?

    iplayer quality so bad watching the match. Like watching through water. Also, why can't I watch with @virginmedia app? Disappointing..

  • Forza_Pakistan
    Elon Gandi Mushk (@Forza_Pakistan) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I don't like how they think they can push retarded indians onto residential customers these ******* Indians don't know the elbow from their ******* then they expected to resolve our issues when they don't even speak the language clearly @virginmedia is a laughing stock

    O2 and virgin media combine to create the most incompetent internet service experience since the ******* 90s
