  • shaunreeves
    Shaun Reeves (@shaunreeves) reported from Fradley and Streethay, England

    @virginmedia It appears to have been resolved. However it is rather alarming to hear members of our village had been told by your customer service team “the earliest fix would be 6th Jan 2021”.

    @ash_tunstall @virginmedia Sky working fine. Streaming shit loads!

  • WiteWulf
    ☞Ⓖⓐⓡⓨ Ⓟⓐⓡⓚⓔⓡ☜ (@WiteWulf) reported from Shepshed, England

    @virginmedia It’s obviously a localised equipment failure caused by the power fluctuation this afternoon, not “signal to noise” problems as your telephone operative said. Get an engineer out here and fix it now, please, @virginmedia

  • k28ykaty
    Katy Oliver (@k28ykaty) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia Except if your me.. I’ve continually been supplied with a poor excuse for broadband.. I was promised a booster for my signal yet weeks later I’ve still not received it.. your not keeping up your side of this contract.. will not renew my contract when this is over!

    Looks like someone pulled out the wrong plug at Virgin Media HQ. Even their website is down!

    @mjordo78 @virginmedia Motivated as the full-time ones! I get very few problems, but if I did I'd be on the phone making sure I got a discount!

  • XStatikPulse
    Itza Secret (@XStatikPulse) reported from Castle Donington, England

    @virginmedia I would call 150 from my land-line to say that broadband and TV are down, but the phone isn't working either! And your call centre doesn't open till 8 (should be 24/7 when u sell a 24/7 product)

  • james_watts
    James Watts (@james_watts) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia The is letting me know. Downloads are very slow a video that would normally take 3 mins is now 40.

  • XStatikPulse
    Itza Secret (@XStatikPulse) reported from Castle Donington, England

    @virginmedia Patience! I'm absolutely furious! How dare you assume I'm happy to wait! I hardly have a choice in the matter. I work nights I only get time in the morning for relaxing in front of the TV and I probably won't be able to till Monday cos ur service is shit!

  • jonnyriall
    Jonathon Riall (@jonnyriall) reported from Shepshed, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. On both occasions there's apparently been no issues, and none shown again this morning. It's more the fact that even though it happened twice in a week, and having waited on hold for 30min each time, I just get told to call back if it happens again.

    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

  • XStatikPulse
    Itza Secret (@XStatikPulse) reported from Castle Donington, England

    @virginmedia It's not just my house, I checked with other people living in the village and they all have the same problem. Your app is now saying its a known issue, tv+bb est fix 11.25am but phone est fix 4pm. In the past if phone don't work none will. Its every week now.

    @virginmedia Hi I cannot log in to my Virgin Media go account nor change my password. Please help me as I need this urgently!

  • antbates1991
    Anthony Bates (@antbates1991) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia It's for Virgin Media. Everytime I ring up to try and change something no one over the phone can ever find my account and because of this no one can help me. I want to cancel my package because the offer I'm on expires next month and the services are not worth £84.

  • 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?

  • 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.

    Gabe (@SummerfieldGabe) reported from Lichfield, England

    omg @virginmedia has the WORST customer service 😭🔫

  • 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.

  • bond_gary
    gary 'uk' bond (@bond_gary) reported from Hilton, England

    @RockandRollSue @virginmedia I got rid my contract with virgin due to a bad reception, it took three months... each time I contacted them to cancel( when I could get through) they said it was all sorted, but they hadn’t done a thing, in the end I agreed to going pay as you go and just never used it again.

  • jonnyriall
    Jonathon Riall (@jonnyriall) reported from Shepshed, England

    @virginmedia No issues reported and yet again I can't access any on demand TV tonight.

    RetroGamerX (@RetroGamer90) reported

    @Stephencheatley @virginmedia We had the full VM package quite a few years back but always had issues with their tv service. We ended up going with Sky and havent had any problems since then. We kept the broadband with Virgin because we get 1GB for £38 month with Netflix included. Shop around mate 👍

  • nightrider20244
    Ian 🇬🇧 (@nightrider20244) reported

    @Benleo @CherryFaves0 @virginmedia They are useless the call centre staff are clueless I was only trying to be able to log into account on line and change bank details with them still never got it done all time I was with them I had to ring up every month to pay bill the only thing they understand is taking money

  • Bargainhunter85
    Simon Fitzgerald 🇺🇦 (@Bargainhunter85) reported

    @virginmedia Very rarely have any internet problems and 4 days ago decided to switch to BT. I’m finding it quiet a coincidence internet now keeps going off hmmm

  • bhoyjohn1888
    John Cameron (@bhoyjohn1888) reported

    Has anyone successfully cancelled a contract with Virgin Media? If so, please advise. Can't get them to answer any telephone calls or emails. Shocking customer service.

  • cyberbob1uk
    Cyberbob1uk (@cyberbob1uk) reported

    @virginmedia 51 days with you and 5 internet outages on April 4th, 6th, 12th, May 15th and yesterday which still not sorted today. How can you justify this shoddy level of service? Was with my previous provider for 10 years, 0 outages.

  • fcmad1960
    FootballCricketMad (@fcmad1960) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there, my problems are still unresolved and even your "Resolutions" team is blanking me. I need confirmation that we're at the end of the road so I can go to the regulator. How can I get this pls?

  • XONYT_
    X (@XONYT_) reported

    I switched my network from EE to O2 because I wanted 1Gbps broadband for my home, and Virgin Media offered me a discount, including unlimited everything and unmaxed speeds on my mobile through O2, which I already had on EE. Tell me why O2 is so much worse than EE, and why I cannot get a signal in many places. #pissed

    @Benleo @virginmedia Agree - worst company - taking more than fixed price contract stipulated from an old age pensioner.

    @Benleo @virginmedia Saw this coming a long while ago which is why I bailed when my contract finished, awful customer service and awful products, let this be a lesson to all of you on X!
