    @virginmedia Sorted now. Received an envelope last week with an adaptor. A leaflet inside stated we would receive an email when to change it. No such email received. Communication very poor

    Andrew Wood (@andrewlwood) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia another outage in Tw8. This has been a regular problem over the last three weeks. It’s messing with my business and now my family movie night. Are you aware, and when will it be sorted?

    @liamPATTIE @virginmedia So many time since Tuesday reset WiFi turned off tivo box at back at the wall everything. Called again Thursday and he told me you've got it unbelievable customer services 🙄

    @virginmedia Thank you. It’s so stressful when working from home and only being able to use my mobile phone to do anything! Netflix now finally working. What was the problem?

  • Jotwinn
    jox (@Jotwinn) reported from Cobham, England

    @libertyglobal I use virgin media wifi and broadband have been a customer for little under a year now and have spent all day on the phone with them I am a priority customer as I have medical equipment that needs wifi to transmit readings to hospitals and they said they would

  • yessibelloperez
    Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Once again, your status checker says there’s nothing wrong but I have just called the number provided and was told by an automated messaging say your engineers are working to resolve a very complex issue. This is the second time in less than a month.

  • BarbaraMolony
    Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia My problem is that the fix time is 24 hours! That’s really not ok

  • staffora
    Staffora (@staffora) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia is there an known outage in KT2 area? Have no broadband or TV.

  • HoarseRoar
    eamorugby (@HoarseRoar) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Still no service. Your website tells me service is fine. Over the phone the automated message is “an intermittent service” and when I finally spoke with someone they’ve organised a technician to visit next TUESDAY. It’s a mess.

  • andrewlwood
    Andrew Wood (@andrewlwood) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia This problem is still here; internet has been sporadic all day, dropping out for several minutes at a time. You are not reporting any issues on your coverage tracker however.

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Geoff Rogers (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from Hersham, England

    @virginmedia @FeelitWorking I think the OP is airing his frustration at the fact that he has to ask for discount at the end of the contract. VM does not do this with its business customers (I know as a former very satisfied business customer) so why should it apply to consumers? To be fair, Sky, BT, Talk…

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    Problems again with @virginmedia in Oxford!! When will you get this sorted #virginbroadband #virginmediadown

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Lord Geoff Of The House Rogers 🔶 #FBPE #FBPPR (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia Yes but it just tells me to check my hub. TV has gone down as well so it looks like a cable issue and not internet. It’s not telling me anything else. Please can you check. Post code is KT12 3. And I’m not the only one !

  • Flozephine
    Flo (@Flozephine) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia no broadband in RG12 for over an hour - can’t report on your service status page as it appears down? Any update gratefully received 🙏🏻

  • Griffo2018
    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia I have done this now 7 times since 28th Nov without any Virgin service. I just called for the 8th time as I am expecting a new hub today to now be told it’s not coming today . A long list of bad customer service. I am fed up . Don’t use Virgin media as for the customer your left

  • P4TTL
    Patrick Smith (@P4TTL) reported from Chertsey, England

    @virginmedia Yep, no issues in the area. Everything was working up until about an hour ago, and now the Internet has gone very sporadic and constantly disconnecting, as shown by the ping test.

  • ExtremePCUK
    ≡xtr≡m≡pcuk 🔜 #i69 🤟 (@ExtremePCUK) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! I’ve worked with major computer and ISP’s over my time but by far Virgin Media is the worst! I pay £111 a month and not one person can help. Intermittent internet for a month but they say just wait another week it may be back on!

    Dippy | Brig Content Creator (@Itsdippylive) reported

    In the same 28 April email, Virgin Media wrote: "a dedicated chat-based support route for customers with reasonable adjustments is needed... an area where we must improve." They wrote that 6 days ago. Today the next cycle broke.

  • rchcool
    It's mom not mum (@rchcool) reported

    @virginmedia @sabrevan Yes can you please explain the issue? Repeated occurrences means we can’t rely on the service until you confess the problem and whether it has actually been solved or if you’re just applying temporary fixes to avoid paying compensation to customers

  • Liafreytre
    Tre (@Liafreytre) reported

    @AndrewW12290183 @virginmedia They never send them. Still have old crap of theirs from years ago.

  • sabrevan
    Brendan (@sabrevan) reported

    @virginmedia There was an outage in my area - for 3 days. It’s not my hub. It’s the ridiculously bad, unreliable service @virginmedia provide. Our whole street is complaining. Guess what … the service is down again today 😡

  • servesthesun
    Steven Usher (@servesthesun) reported

    @virginmedia it’s quite literally impossible to sign into either your website or the app! Literally stuck in an endless loop of being asked to sign in but when I do it refreshes the page asking me to sign in

  • JordanPsych_
    Jordan (@JordanPsych_) reported

    @virginmedia ever since last Thursday I've been getting high ping issues on call of duty and this is a virgin media specific issue only. Any idea when this is getting fixed?

  • rchcool
    It's mom not mum (@rchcool) reported

    @virginmedia 3rd time this week our broadband is down, no explanation has been given each time only “an outage has been identified” and it takes at least a day to repair. What is the reason? I need to work from home this week and receive the service I am paying for.

  • veyron_fan
    David Kirk (@veyron_fan) reported

    @hamchester44 @_HenryMill You don't get why people are so into it. Did you see the price of f1tv? It's literally a fraction the price of Sky.... If you don't have a classic TV service like Sky or Virgin media, which many don't, you're only option is rubbish NowTV sports pass for over £30 a month!!!

  • AmyHeppi
    Amy Heppingstall (@AmyHeppi) reported

    @virginmedia That’s all you ever do look into it never any action it improves for a few days then terrible it used to be such great service where has that service gone??

  • Welshryan17
    Ryan Bowles (@Welshryan17) reported

    @virginmedia why does my Internet just die for no reason I mean I'm paying £73 for disconnecting and poor performance I'm paying for 1gb but only getting 100mb at the most it's kinda starting to annoy me at this point
