    Hey, ‘RP,’ again, @virginmedia is down. The lack of resilience is shocking and embarrassing for a major broadband provider. #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  • StuJonesMusic
    Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Quite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

    Trickie Dickie (@NickHickey84) reported from Bradmore, England

    @virginmedia a customer of yours for years. Had a cpi increase letter to say leave with out penalty. Competitor massively cheaper than you for faster speeds. Only to be told by a colleague I have to pay £110 to leave today?

  • OpiniatedOne1
    Pretentious Opinions (@OpiniatedOne1) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

  • BeardPunk
    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

  • jenkin99
    jen (@jenkin99) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

  • tr0y1291
    Troy (@tr0y1291) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

  • RefinedSavage
    Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

  • shelleex5
    Shelly (@shelleex5) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia red button not working again!! @skytv, does yours work? #FedUp missing baggies after my shift 😪

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Think we need to call an engineer out anyways, before the outage I was only getting 600mbps max when my package is the 1Gig.

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • kolapoagunbiade
    TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

  • CaseyRain
    Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Causing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

  • nealesj
    Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England

    It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  • richardcbishop
    Richard C. Bishop 🏃‍♂️ (@richardcbishop) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @Damien_Clyburn @virginmedia They're appalling. I've had business version for 10 years. BT never miss a beat. Outstanding. Get rid of them.

  • CaseyRain
    Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Had an @virginmedia broadband outage on Sunday for 2 hours. Since then, connection so spotty that I'm getting 10 seconds of completely dropped packets followed by 20 seconds of slow-as-molasses ping times once every 10 minutes.

    John Moore (@JohnMoo99882213) reported

    @bmstewart2004 This is exactly why I cancelled my Virgin Media subscription and moved to BT over 5 years ago. My bill went down from over £100 a month to £42 a month. When my contract is up for renewal I make contact and negotiate a deal. I am now paying £39 a month for broadband & TV package.

    @IainSankey @virginmedia We’ve been with virgin for about the same time, abysmal service, they don’t seem to care at all, our internet drops out constantly, it drives me insane.

  • shezzey

    @bmstewart2004 The modern equivalent of **** Turpin,I've successfully switched to Virgin Media after 20 yrs with Sky who demonstrated less than zero customer retention acumen F*ck em.

    Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported

    An Irish MEP is calling for a Europe-wide response to the growing crisis in farming caused by this summer’s extreme weather. Billy Kelleher says Ireland is not the only country suffering, with crop yields down massively across the continent. Here at home, the Agriculture Minister is expected to meet farming representatives this week as concerns rise over winter fodder stocks. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY

    @virginmedia - resorting to contacting you here as other channels have failed to help me get a connection to your services even though neighbours have it. Please reply in direct message - thank you
