  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Sorry is just not enough as a big name and charge us a supreme service but not provide us a pathetic service. How much I lost in last 3 months and specially in festival time. Which is higher time of my business.

  • sureshhalai Suresh halai (@sureshhalai) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia signal gone down again in IG2 6PX, please can you reboot your servers

  • essentialfusion شاهد اقبال (@essentialfusion) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Don’t reply with a bog standard message written by a monkey doing a cut and paste job. Bubbles has more important things to do than worrying about your crappy service

  • HMSbeagle1820 HMS Beagle (@HMSbeagle1820) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks db, but I really don’t understand how this is taking so long. Surely there must have been a Virgin Media support team in London at some point in the last 2 months

  • CounterCultureG Counter Culture (@CounterCultureG) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia moved from #sky gave notice 2 weeks ago, looking forward to installation on Friday 13th. You confirmed on Tuesday 10th. Took the day off work. Didn’t arrive, called support. Was informed installation changed to 28th😡😡🤬🤬🤬. Great start! Received letter today14th

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    I advice people please do not use @virginmedia broadband they are false advertising. Pathetic customer service useless engineers not turn up on due date just charging big money in the name of fibre optic but service is worst than land lines. No service in my home last 7 days

  • barnettenergy Rob Barnett (@barnettenergy) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Yes. That’s correct. When I am on my home network (Virgin), Netflix video will not stream — watching Amazon Prime right now, which is working fine. YouTube also works, so it only seems to apply to Netflix. (And Netflix works fine when I switch to 4G / Vodafone.)

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia I have experienced similar issue in October 2019 they have book the engineer but didn't turned up on the day. I have take day off from my work. No communication from Virgin media . I have to call and listen all the songs and wasted my 1 hour nothing sorted.

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia I have been experience no internet since 10 December 2019. I have received the message 13-12-19 back to work but no internet called the Customer service couple time no internet yet now they book engineer wednesday.

  • moira_adams moira adams (@moira_adams) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia after 24 hrs TV & broadband outage in SM3, the 4pm fix time better be accurate or I’m going to have raging kids to deal with

  • call_horne Chris (@call_horne) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia is there any reason why my internet is so slow. Last week I had hitting 100mbps now it’s not even 20.

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    Poor service and pathetic customer service @virginmedia broadband. incompetent engineers and useless customer service team. Worst ever experience on any broadband provider.

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia I just want a service which you promise

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia is a worst broadband provider and their customer service is pathetic they are lairs do promises their engineers not turn up I been calling since October 3 times book engineers no turn up yet last 7 days no service and again said book a engineer.

  • AdrianLiard AdeL (@AdrianLiard) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia No need for escalation. Everyone has been courteous, it's just the lack of product package changes communication which has been an issue.

  • alansbrown alan brown (@alansbrown) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Put something online or phone message when we call also despite being out since yesterday morning only been able to register issue this morning. Not great service really so likely to cancel my contract in new year despite over 15 years as a customer just too much poor service

  • SarahWaygood Sarah Waygood (@SarahWaygood) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia if our services aren’t back in action by 4pm as promised I will be holding you responsible for any actions that arise as a result of watching bad kids DVDs back to back.

  • AdrianLiard AdeL (@AdrianLiard) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia In my humble view the customer call centres, specifically abroad need more training...I've been on the phone 3 times to amend packages & in truth not many are up to speed when the change occurs As a customer of over 11+ years it's been a poor experience

  • Juliefleur24 Joobs (@Juliefleur24) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    Fed up that yet again @virginmedia have outages in my area, shown as not working until tomorrow pm ! I’m trying to study but have internet, again

  • alinaqi80 Syed Ali Naqi (@alinaqi80) reported from Ilford, England

    @DBUk11 @virginmedia They are not paying anything on compensation. I am waiting for tomorrow if tomorrow not sorted out my broadband I will cancel Mr contract.

  • Dazzler2909 obe (@Dazzler2909) reported

    @virginmedia You try following that link and see how you can do it doesn't offer you a place to apply or make a complaint says ring a number that sends me a text to the same link. is there not an email I can't write or better yet tell the person to fix it properly.

  • willMackMersh will ✨ (@willMackMersh) reported

    @virginmedia I’m really sorry, but “sorry for the wait” would be acceptable if it had been a couple of weeks but it’s been 16 weeks with no broadband service through no fault of our own? We’ve been endlessly patient but at this point it feels genuinely criminal. We need an update now.

  • paulmonger The Player (@paulmonger) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I currently pay the internet bill. I need to put it into my housemate’s name (who owns the house) as I might be moving out. Is this easily done without loss of service? Thank you.

  • sethghecko Sethghecko (@sethghecko) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve checked your service status and it says there are no issues but I haven’t been able to get online all day.

  • Aleem_A Aleem (@Aleem_A) reported

    @virginmedia Already done and surprise, it’s saying no issues. I have already rebooted the router. I can’t connect any devices downstairs now.

  • GeekySteph Stiff! (@GeekySteph) reported

    @virginmedia I know, I know…. It was just the worst possible timing for me with a 3pm deadline. It can’t be helped with this crazy heat. Its working intermittently but never mind I’m sure I’ll get things sorted.

  • delfender D Fender (@delfender) reported

    Multiple houses in our estate @virginmedia has been down since yesterday and yet they won't accept there is an outage problem so we are all having to wait for individual engineers to come out. How many houses have to be without internet before you accept it's not a router issue?

  • A1an_G Al Gee (@A1an_G) reported

    @virginmedia hi our TV and Internet is down again. Was out for 5 hrs yesterday and it's now down again. Not just me the whole postcode. It's happening more frequently. What is happening and why does it keep going off.

  • jay28453803 JAY (@jay28453803) reported

    @virginmedia Ok but it’s not so easy. The thing is broken it won’t let me enter any text! I’ll email now

  • keithgraham86b keith graham (@keithgraham86b) reported

    @virginmedia Had to ring Customer Services spoke to a really lovely lady whose name was Hashura, she had patience of a saint, at the end of a long conversation (nearly an hour) I found out that a large percentage of the record is missing off system. Manager to phone me
