    Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia On phone now since 0830 this morning. Still on hold. Also tried on what's app. Still waiting to be put in contact with an agent. Shocking service

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.

  • Hasbullins
    Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I have phoned you at least 10 times this week. I’ve had a visit from a technician. My Wi-Fi still doesn’t work. I rang up AGAIN in the last half an hour, after waiting for 30 mins to speak to someone, they said they had ‘system issues’ and hung up on me. (1/3)

  • Aldehulme
    David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?

  • gbmcfc
    GLENN (@gbmcfc) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Well you find I'm cancelling my contract with yourselves, hope you go bust, your customer service team is a shambolic embarrasment. Loyalty works both ways.

    Ah @virginmedia with this up and down service today you are really spoiling us!

  • andymillington
    Andy Millington (@andymillington) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia My stepson and his partner having real problems getting someone to move the account to new address. Seems like a simple self installation M&T but nobody will help.

  • essers
    Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi. We had to cancel our move due to a situation beyond our control, and contacted you to confirm this, and cancel the installation at the new address. Today, we’ve woken up to no services and found we’ve been disconnected. We need our phone and broadband urgently. We are…

    @virginmedia customer service is so ****. They just transfer you round to different departments

  • birdflu_7
    officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia If you want I can send pictures and ALL THE emails .I don't have the time to keep discussing the same situation with yet another virgin media support staff . My time is precious.

  • Rik_Ashton
    Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @SkyUK My Sky package is slowly edging up. Some new customer deals from a couple of years ago have worsened discounts but... I'm still around £30 a month better off than when I was with Virgin Media. Never going back.

  • essers
    Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I need these services back today. I needed them this morning, when I was not receiving emails that I needed to respond to. I needed to know that you were going to do this, and when it was happening. I am under monumental stress and you’ve just cut out account off, for no reason.

  • nick_lowden
    Nick Lowden (@nick_lowden) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia can’t get on service checker as app says it is out of service. Internet has gone down in M20 ?? When should it be fixed?

  • OldhamBradd
    Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, England

    Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

  • acailler
    Adam Cailler (@acailler) reported from Manchester, England

    @JournoBird @virginmedia We've had it cut out twice for a few hours, but that was related to the ridiculous heat and they fixed it quickly. I realise everyone will have different experiences 🤦

  • louaze
    🐝Louise🐝 (@louaze) reported from Manchester, England

    Skysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!

  • essers
    Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia This should have been simply and readily resolved, as soon as your error was brought to your attention. Just because I can’t afford to pay for the top tier of services doesn’t mean I don’t matter as a customer. A very long term, loyal customer, I would note.

    @virginmedia Hi, yes the loss of service is still ongoing and this is the 3rd time this month would this not go under continuous loss of service?

  • LadyLucia05

    @virginmedia Well im hope now and service is still not restored

  • dollDCFC
    Dermot O'Leary (@dollDCFC) reported

    @Benleo I know this will be of little conciliation to you but I recently had an issue with my @virginmedia broadband. It required a new Hub. I phoned on a Tuesday late afternoon and they booked a call out for the Thursday PM. They arrived on time and fitted the new Hub. I had no issues.

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia No, you absolutely don't understand. Leave me alone. Maybe I will be well enough at some point in the future to sort this. Maybe not. Your treatment of disabled people and your withholding of key information to a customer is disgusting. I'm cut off now, thanks.

  • vickiferris
    Vicky Leigh (@vickiferris) reported

    I call customer services and then told oh they do 360 boxes for existing customers but if it worked OK then the box was fine. However the email says the boz will work and look OK until it doesn't so I ask for a replacement or engineer to check it (4) @virginmedia

    @hamsterpranks @virginmedia Virgin - sucking the life out of humanity since inception. Thank **** I got rid years ago.

    @virginmedia please can you tell me why your boxing pay per view never works properly please? No such issues with Sky pay per view.

  • fsmith82
    F Smith (@fsmith82) reported

    @virginmedia no internet as box is out of date (family member had same issue a few weeks ago) & engineer can’t come until Monday. Why aren’t you contacting customers to upgrade BEFORE we loose a service we pay for???????
