    Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia On the basis that I can’t get through to anyone in Virgin and the online help isn’t helping, will anyone respond to my Tweet of 15 hours ago?

  • shon_douglas
    Shôn Douglas (@shon_douglas) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Checked there...shows no known issues. Seems to have stabilised a bit on the last half an hour.

    @virginmedia Yes that was one of the first things I done, no problems apparently

    @Ofcom you should really investigate how @virginmedia Von people into thinking they’re on a rolling contract and then hit you with a £200 charge when you try to cancel.

    Just spent the last hour trying to get in touch with @virginmedia very bad customer service #nothappy

    Oooo so virgin sport has been acquired Seems to be the strategy of virgin. Virgin media might well be next but the airline will never be sold

    Joe Harper (@joe_joeharper) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia love lying about putting you on a rolling contract and then hitting you with a £200 pound cancellation fee when you try to cancel after you’re forced to move home. Nice work!

  • TheJamesLawlor
    James Lawlor (@TheJamesLawlor) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia Don't ask me to check service status. Don't ask me to reset your router. Don't ask me to ring that number to speak to a computer and don't send me a link to 'tell' me whats wrong with the Internet

  • mitanshu
    mitanshu (@mitanshu) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia poor broadband connection at the moment. Is there a known issue ?

  • jamierudge

    @virginmedia your V6 box is so unreliable! Random picture breakups, loss of signal, audio out of sync... Makes me want move to another provider! 😠

    @vmbusinesshelp @terrizmo @vmbusiness This was yesterday. Your faults team were unhelpful when I finally got through after nearly an hour on hold. The significant outage seems to be well known but not by the twitter team who still have an outage from June pinned to this account!!

  • TheJamesLawlor
    James Lawlor (@TheJamesLawlor) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia Not good. Only 2 devices that connect in the house are PlayStations. Nothing else will connect. Says 'connected with problems' on my fire stick

    Hi @virginmedia I need some help please. My parents internet has gone down, customer services say they need a replacement hub taking up to 7 days to arrive. My mother is disabled and my dad is her carer, both isolating. How can we get the hub delivered quicker pls?

  • WattsChelt
    Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia I should have recognised that is the number I’ve been calling. Other than an online test it just leads you around in circles. No further forward, no fix, just a little more cheesed off. Really disappointing.

  • outtheratrace49
    David Crebbin (@outtheratrace49) reported from Cheltenham, England

    I’m with @virginmedia mobile and getting a lot of harassing calls amongst others from @HMRCgovuk telling me unless I press 1 a warrant will be issued for my arrest. Is anyone else getting these calls or is it just me or my network?

  • liamharries

    @vmbusinesshelp how can you claim to have a 24/7 fault support hotline if every time I call i either get cut off or after 5-10 mins of hold music I get a dial tone then silence? How can it be that @vmbusiness has even worse customer service and reliability than @virginmedia?

  • Lettie73
    Colette Etheridge (@Lettie73) reported from Quedgeley, England

    @virginmedia please can you provide the correct contact details for making a complaint.

    @virginmedia I got given a number and it was a automated service, haven't actually spoke over the phone to anyone. Only on here

    @virginmedia Hi, you need to make customers aware that you’re being used as part of a scam. People are ringing saying they are from Virgin Media and there is something wrong with their route. They then try and get people to download malware to “fix it”. People need to be warned
