  • 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.

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

    @AnishModgil @virginmedia In my experience No. and when I asked for money back last time they told me there had to be a complete service loss for a certain number of days!!!! Maybe time to contact the #Ombudsman

  • tobygilles
    🎤Toby Gilles🎤 (@tobygilles) reported from Hounslow, England

    Has anyone with @virginmedia got the @SkySports red button working? I genuinely think it’s never worked for me and I’ve had Virgin for about 5 years now. I just wanna watch #Watfordfc. I’m paying enough, why do I not get the service?

  • andburd
    Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

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

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

  • traymca

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

  • morish1
    maureen robert (@morish1) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

  • will_i_am67
    Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @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 🙄

  • UF1902

    @PandemicEU @virginmedia It's been happening for weeks. All I get when I call customer service are excuses.

  • 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 !

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

    @virginmedia Thanks, John. No they didn’t confirm. All they said was that the issue *might* be fixed by August 2nd, which as you can imagine is far from ideal. Meanwhile, I’m also being charged a full month despite not having a reliable connection for over a week.

  • UrbanEdgeCapit1
    Urban Edge Capital (@UrbanEdgeCapit1) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Can you please fix the broadband in the NW9 0TE area. Its been 5 days already. 😪

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

    @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?

  • StuartTarn
    Stuart the Copywriter (@StuartTarn) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    A combination of @OpenreachHelp‘s incompetence by cutting through the internet cable outside my house and @virginmedia no showing for an engineering visit to fix it has me having to run my business through my phone hotspot until Friday. That’s if they show up, of course.

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Good morning, This is the 3rd day with no broadband. You have conflicting messages as to whether there is an issue or not, and whether it has been fixed or not. I have been unable to speak to anyone or log a call out. Can someone please help

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

    @virginmedia Yep, not good enough. What’s the issue? Why does it keep happening and what are you doing about it? And how are you compensating customers?

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

    @virginmedia ‘Helpline’ completely useless! Just sends me a text to a link to check my service 😳 What is going on???? #VirginMedia #UnhappyCustomer #NotOk

  • IstvanOFatyol
    Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Since w/c 22Aug my wife and I continuously keep checking the service status which gets updated and deadline pushed back. Nobody with virgin has broadband or TV for over 3 weeks now without explanation or a decent update

  • Rochdale_Cowboy
    Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Took out an @O2 account as part of some 'volt' deal with @virginmedia. My god O2 are bad. Apparently you have to wait a few months to access your account online to wait until their systems "catch up" for new joiners. Shouldn't have bothered.

  • TimmyLDN
    🦒🤓TimmyLDN🙄🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🦒 (@TimmyLDN) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Yes at £37 when as a new customer I could get it for £25. I am happy to stick at the £32 but you are not willing to match.

    @virginmedia can someone for the life of me help me out with this linked Virgin & 02 apps, can’t sign into my Virgin app, as my Virgin and 02 are u der two different emails. So tried merging them 3 times now! And still no joy!! can’t log into my Virgin at all! I’m so frustrated

  • HenleyDB
    Henley (@HenleyDB) reported

    @GreyBlackstone @virginmedia They're charging me over £105 for only broadband. They're a bunch of greedy jokers. I had an issue and called them, they made things worse. I'm stuck not renewing my contract. If they mess up again, I end up paying even more but on a new contract or accidentally disconnected.

    @virginmedia Just cancelled my broadband because you want £33 for m350 but new customers get m500 for £24 how does that work been with you for nearly ten years but a new customer gets a better deal 👍.

    Gordy (@trueblue171) reported

  • pokerchamp_Cbbo
    Cububo (@pokerchamp_Cbbo) reported

    @koenjideck Only worked well for me in recent years, but it gave me a decade of packet loss and outages before then 😵‍💫 I remember playing games with people on my street at uni, and half the people would disconnect in a lobby whenever Virgin Media had an outage 🥀

  • PaddyMc_06
    Patrick McNamara (@PaddyMc_06) reported

    @virginmedia I’m trying to get ahold of you but your phone service is on a loop. Tell me why you have not carried over my parents landline of over 40 years as requested and confimed. This needs to be fixed ASAP for very impotent specific reasons. Please get in touch to sort this!

    @virginmedia Can you not just reply on here and just explain ? There is nothing secret about this post there’s nothing to hide it’s a general question regarding the cool down period.
