  • 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.

  • Shaun1799
    Shaun (@Shaun1799) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia having problems with my wifi would you help me out

  • wowbaggerish
    (An)TonyM 🇺🇦 (@wowbaggerish) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia @gosportjack75 Yes. Please ensure you do. It's appalling customer service.

  • ASHVllN
    Ash まじめ (@ASHVllN) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia On wired connection I’m getting the same results 431mb download and 30mb upload. I’ve tried to diagnose the issue via your website and it suggested again to send out a technician, so I’ve requested one to come again next Monday 11th.

  • wowbaggerish
    (An)TonyM 🇺🇦 (@wowbaggerish) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia Yes, apparently you have an engineer working on it. If hoping the 20 hour estimated fix time is overly pessimistic!

  • fadermonkeyking
    Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to cancel an engineer appt next week. Followed online instructions but only option I get is to re-book for a different time. No option to cancel. And I don’t have time to wait for a response from you if I phone! Help!

  • 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

  • TimHole
    Tim Hole (@TimHole) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia thank you, I am trying to register so I can access the service but I can't receive SMS so I cannot receive my verification code. I tried to login but it said email not recognised so guess i havent logged in before. Please advise.

  • 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?

  • U2Gorilla
    Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

  • MarkAlexKeller
    Mark A. Keller (@MarkAlexKeller) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @ThreeUKSupport So does it only work when Three Wi-Fi is available? On Virgin Media it always asks me to login then says it should have logged me in automatically.

  • KlymkoNataliya
    Nataliya Klymko 🇺🇦🇬🇧 (@KlymkoNataliya) reported from Southall, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there's an outage in my area (area code 21)?

  • 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

  • andrewlwood
    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?

  • JammieBun
    James Brown (@JammieBun) reported from Hillingdon, England

    Hi @virginmedia. I’ve tried phoning you with a complaint, but the calls get shunted into weblink hell. I’ve submitted two complaints through your site which have mysteriously disappeared from my account. And on Twitter the links you send for an online chat only ever lead …

  • magma62
    mara penzo (@magma62) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia I know where to check, thanks! My problem still persist! It's Friday night and I have no Internet?! Why? They have been carrying out works for weeks now. I think I need a compensation. Why am I paying money for no service?

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

    @virginmedia Called customer services at 6.30pm yesterday Sky sports now added. Lots of issues with WiFi at same time was on phone unable to load tivo box history appears to of been sorted. We will see in next 14days

  • leaver_sharon
    Sharon Leaver (@leaver_sharon) reported from Bracknell, England

    @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

  • 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.

    @virginmedia Is service in London W13 working?

    @virginmedia Hey I was told earlier by customer services on IM that an engineer will come to fix or replace my WiFi hub on Friday, but I haven’t received any email or text confirmation. Will one be forthcoming?

  • notnotzecoxao

    @GregoryRasputin @virginmedia companies don't give a **** if you're sick or not, they just want your money greg lmfao

  • Terristarfish
    Teresa 💜 (@Terristarfish) reported

    @Benleo We left @virginmedia as they had such poor customer service!

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    So, it appears that @virginmedia has cut off my Internet as threatened. My crime? I haven't had the time or energy to set up a new router they delivered last Friday. One they insisted on even though the current one works. I'm paying for a service they've decided to end

  • tiger20004

    @nufcrichys If you are a Virgin Media customer, all three finals are free on Channel 526; no HBO or TNT subscription is needed.

  • UAVHive
    UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported

    @Benleo I have worked in telecoms customer service so can vouch for Virgin Media being (in my view) the worst in the industry. They billed me twice for a single month & made me pay for equipment I'd already returned. I was overjoyed to cancel.

  • Donatedparts
    Steve Austin (Not the real one) 🇬🇧 (@Donatedparts) reported

    @Benleo @marktenjag @virginmedia File an official complaint stating you were misled & want the contract cancelled without penalty. You can use a Consumer Rights Template from Citizens Advice. Escalate to a Communications Ombudsman if the company rejects your claim or fails to resolve it within 8 weeks.

  • badcorpse
    Matthew Kennedy (@badcorpse) reported

    @Benleo Stay away from Virgin Media and you will be happier for it trust me. Clear someone in an office somewhere has said we can offer **** customer service that costs X from India or good customer service from the UK that costs Y and they have went with X

  • ActuallyClarex
    Clareactually (@ActuallyClarex) reported

    Fk sake #virginmedia not working yet again. That’s made my mind up. Cancel it is.

  • ollyp3
    Ollyp3 (@ollyp3) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Wait - you have to stay on a contract or cancel. Why can't they just cancel what you were sold, give you the compensation (which they are legally required to on Ofcom auto compensation anyway for lost connectivity) and fix your service urgently. I cannot believe you are being held to a missed contract without the perks of said contract! Apalling
