  • haasty_kawa haasty kawa (@haasty_kawa) reported from Derby, England

    @virginmedia I'm not at all satisfied. Since last night until now, my internet has been down. When I attempted to contact customer service, it flatly refused. I attempted to access the page, but it is still blocking me. I am self-employed. The region DE248ET is shown here. Fix it asap

  • haasty_kawa haasty kawa (@haasty_kawa) reported from Derby, England

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @toik1961 @virginmedia I think there was something all our Internet dropped out now our #alexa network is not working #internetoutage

  • HistoricCatLady Rebecca Ward (@HistoricCatLady) reported from Mackworth, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on? I can’t even get onto your website for the service tracker using my phone data! I could really use an update here so that I can actually work!

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes it must have shorted itself overnight @virginmedia can I please cancel the engineer?

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia We have an engineer booked for Monday but I don't believe this is really acceptable with the amount of money we pay each month we should be able to expect a service which works, I understand there will be issues but over 3 hours later nothing?

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    When you have a smart house and your @virginmedia #Wifi goes down so nothing is working 😳 now the kids are moaning at no tablets, @PlayStation or @xboxuk there is only so many times I can reboot the hub...... #internetdown

  • 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.

  • iamthemummy julie marlow (@iamthemummy) reported from Ibstock, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia One of your tech engineers confirmed the problem in our local area and following a conversation with customer service they kept trying to get me to create multiple networks for speed. This wasn’t the problem, the problem was amplifiers in the local area!!

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia Everyone is very apologetic but that doesn’t help give a vulnerable old lady the peace of mind that her son is available at the other end of the phone, should something happen.

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia It’s even more stressful as we can’t tell her when you will resolve the problem. Extremely poor service.

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

  • Andyfoodie Andrew Markou (@Andyfoodie) reported from Tamworth District, England

    Hi @virginmedia I live in the B77 4LD area and we use you as our Broadband providers. Has the network gone down and if so approximately when will it get fixed and be back up and running?

  • TheRealSiOram77 Simon Oram 💙 (@TheRealSiOram77) reported from Fazeley, England

    @virginmedia No broadband or TV at the moment. Been poor for a few days. Website just says you're aware of the issue. Can't get through by phone and tried to sign up for updates but keeps failing. WiFi needed for work. Any suggestions?

  • JackalynHardy Jackalyn Hardy 💙 (@JackalynHardy) reported from Tamworth District, England

    @virginmedia waited for 25mins to get through to discuss changing my contract gave all my details put on hold and then cut off, despite having my number and mobile they haven't even tried to call me back great customer service

  • Liammanning2u li.iam🏳️‍🌈👬♥️ (@Liammanning2u) reported from Swadlincote, England

    @virginmedia @taylur41 Does @LutzSchueler know how bad your customer service is

  • Liammanning2u li.iam🏳️‍🌈👬♥️ (@Liammanning2u) reported from Swadlincote, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me

  • katej1984 Kate J (@katej1984) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia any chance you could hire call centre staff that don’t hang up the phone after 3 seconds in an attempt to bring their AHT down?

    @virginmedia Thanks, there was nothing listed. However I discovered via local media there was a major outage near Dumbarton, however there was nothing on the website or app. The call centre didn't know either. Lasted most of the day. Pretty poor Comms.

  • ThomsonEdwint Ed Thomson (@ThomsonEdwint) reported

    @virginmedia why have you changed the way I access my account on trying to login into Virgin Media? You are asking for a second e mail address to access! I don’t have one . No other options.

  • CraigMansfield0 Craig Mansfield (@CraigMansfield0) reported

    @virginmedia no communication on outage in Dumbarton from virgin media directly. Outage since 12pm. What is going on

  • dishesrdone74 Chris Denton (@dishesrdone74) reported

    @virginmedia my skysports app is not working. It asks me to sign in then verify my email address then won't let me in? Help please.

  • aquarius16th Neil Walley💙🇺🇦 (@aquarius16th) reported

    @virginmedia having completed the recent security update, I am unable to login to skysports app via the virginmedia 'button' on my android tablet as the link is not working. Any ideas?

  • Lindalou0207 Linda Lou (@Lindalou0207) reported

    @virginmedia sort out your links on the new My Virgin Media and My 02, the verification email takes ages to come through and the passkey link doesn't work, an hour of my time wasted trying to verify my account.

  • Amanda20125308 Amanda Beesley (@Amanda20125308) reported

    Worst customer service ever from @O2 Raised a complaint, several weeks later they tried to contact me but I was driving so they closed the complaint!!!! And all of this is due to the incompetence of the staff at the Livingston branch 😡 @virginmedia

  • RobRollin2 Audere Est Facere (@RobRollin2) reported

    @Tramzadol @virginmedia @VodafoneUK Honest i think the constant time changes are pissing me more than the actual outage! Its crazy bad!. Have you done the compo thing online? Make sure you do mate.

  • RobRollin2 Audere Est Facere (@RobRollin2) reported

    @Tramzadol @virginmedia Honest its a joke. Never had a issue with @VodafoneUK , i need to beg forgiveness and go back ASAP!!!!.

  • Phil0266 Phil Halshaw (@Phil0266) reported

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia it is now over 2 days since I have been unable to login in to my virgin media account or access Sky Sports via the Sky Sports App or via internet. When will this be fixed and where is the communication explaining the fault.
