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

    @virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)

    Is anyone experiencing a Virgin Media outage in M6 currently? Fibre Broadband is struggling to connect

  • Jo8Pink
    Joanne Fallon (@Jo8Pink) reported from Macclesfield, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been waiting, yet again, for 10 days to get a call to resolve my wifi issue. Can’t contact you by website and I’m not sitting for another 90mins to get passed round 6 people 😡. Ongoing issue for far too long now. 8 years I’ve been a customer, like it matters??

  • 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.

    @virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!

  • 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

  • MCR_ADM
    Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England

    Been on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.

    @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

  • 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.

  • AckersStorm
    Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

  • dantheman8t5
    Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England

    @virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today

  • Slt4K

    @virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯

  • _Hill_J
    Jamie Hill (@_Hill_J) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @Defencebrief @virginmedia I, too, am a previous virgin media customer. They put the price up ridiculously. When I asked to renew the contract at the price advertised online, they refused. So I left. At which point I was bombarded with offers. Not a good way of treating customer or doing business.

  • SurrealPaulT
    Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

  • 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.

  • HollowayAlec
    Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England

    @virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.

  • DaveGarside
    Dave Garside🇺🇦🇬🇧❤️ (@DaveGarside) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No. Tv is fine. I can access VOD such as Amazon Prime & Youtube no problem

  • haylesxxx1
    *Hayley* (@haylesxxx1) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia hi, after so many years of being a customer, do you send out new upgrades? My router keeps dipping and going off, been doing it for awhile now, couple of weeks.

  • bigdave22003388
    Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help

  • 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.

    Davie G 🇬🇧 (@fredbeare) reported

    @virginmedia why is your customer service sooo bad spent 5 hours today on various chats/calls each time you transferred me had to start all over again. Why dont your teams speak to each other. In the end i cancelled joining you. Your lack of service told me all i needed to know

  • Julybird
    Julybird (@Julybird) reported

    @y_alibhai @virginmedia Change your internet provider. Or ring their cancellation number and they'll likely push heaven and earth to help you then. If they don't, definitely change. I was with them years ago, absolute rubbish of a service.

  • mademetoxic
    Nicole! 2.0 (@mademetoxic) reported

    @virginmedia Yes no problem

  • iam_samedoho
    Sam Ed (@iam_samedoho) reported

    @OgaHans MTN is one of the biggest network operators in Nigeria. EE, Virgin Media O2, Vodafone, and Three are the major network operators in the UK. EE coverage is very good because BT owns and operates it using its existing infrastructure. Most of the smaller network operators are resellers. They bulk-buy wholesale - network minutes, texts, and data at a heavily discounted rate from (like EE, VMO2, or VodafoneThree) and resell it to people. Their coverage isn't good because they are limited. They are only competitive on price, not on coverage.

  • IsTheTruthToxic
    Face palm Vengance (@IsTheTruthToxic) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it does and it’s a bad system. Your tortuous phone tree system makes talking to the right people very difficult, having to phone for the best deal instead of being offered it by daily is predatory and unnecessary, you know the problems so fix them

    @virginmedia my new equipment was ordered weeks ago & never arrived! I rebooked, but changed fed delivery date and heard nothing since!!

  • In2125
    Man in Black 2125 (@In2125) reported

    @virginmedia yeah did that. it says all fine. no issues .... yet a quick scan of social media ( not using virgin broadband obviously, reveals there's an outage in my area .... perhaps you should move your status checker to another provider? It's going to 24 hours apparently. great service

  • GeekyHairy
    GeekyHairyBestia (@GeekyHairy) reported

    @virginmedia what the hell. Yet again service down in my area. It’s been consistent the two years I’ve been here but you’re the only option but yet again this week it’s been consistent. It’s clear you can not provide on your network to all houses in area so so it we pay for this

  • Jason29wctb
    jason (@Jason29wctb) reported

    @virginmedia All they say is need a engineer and I tell them no but send them any way knowing they can't fix it ,if I cancel £1600 ,even tho it's illegal to hold me I a contract with a service that's not fit for purpose

  • y_alibhai
    Yasmin alibhai-brown (@y_alibhai) reported

    @virginmedia My email account has been locked since last Thursday 11 June. I am an award winning journalist. This has totally disrupted my work. Your customer services raised a ticket P0136 01850 on Saturday to get it unlocked. Nothing has been done. Over to you.
