    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media wifi been unstable since June 2020. Virgin Media never resolved the problem caused me to lose hundreds of £'s. Made me lose my PIP. Virgin made me pay double because they kept charging me twice most months. They've made me lose half my PC Guarantee

    @Mattallwright 2 years on since I have been having trouble with Virgin Media (fingers crossed) they may have now get an uninterrupted supply after charging me late payments more than double my Media prices whilst as a Vulnerable Person they were awful

  • owensirons93
    Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

    @virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

  • johnperreira
    john perreira (@johnperreira) reported from Basildon, England

    @simon_perreira @virginmedia Go with @NOWTV bruv.. never had a major problem with their service and you get a few tv channels thrown in as well.. when ever there has been a outside problem it been sorted in days.. oh and it def be 💯 cheaper than @virginmedia #Cowboys

    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing

  • GoonerGrizzly
    grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England

    @virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

  • moleyfozz
    paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia since you upgraded me for free to intelligent wifi, ive lost all signal upstairs arghhh. How can i switch back?

  • polhilljim
    Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia This is a long story. But Virgin have changed my IMEI number making a second repair not possible. My account is down and even Virgin can't access it. I've been promised calls back several times but they've not happened. The litany of Virgin failures is impossible to put in a text

  • rrrussboy
    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Actually that’s wrong, I received an email to advise that the complaint had been resolved and had to respond saying it hasn’t. What hope is there when you can’t even get a complaint right?

  • yiddo71
    Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia Still @virginmedia can’t get anything right!! Still you screw everything up and provide really bad customer service @BBCWatchdog

  • DanskiBoyWonder

    @virginmedia They replaced the box and it’s all working now,I do have one other query I have the Virgin go app but I don’t have any content available on it,is this something you can fix for me? There appears to be an issue with my account I have the ultimate ooomph package if that matters.

    After 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange

    Sodium (@sodiumlights) reported

    @virginmedia What's the phone number for tech support? My hub5 has died (ds scanning) and the online checker has been saying to try again in 4h for the last 24h.

  • argyledavros
    Dave Warrilow (@argyledavros) reported

    @vriginmeditif @virginmedia these appear to be impersonating. Your customer service is bad enough as it is.

  • andyg81
    Andy Golds (@andyg81) reported

    @virginmedia yet another broadband fault in de7 area ! Utter joke ….. time to cancel everything and move away after 20 years of being a customer

  • PGriffinFC
    Paul Griffin (@PGriffinFC) reported

    Watched the awful England game on Virgin Media. Judging by my timeline, the commentary of Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon was a lot worse. They're getting a right pile on. RTE's punditry is terrible for the WC. No choice elsewhere. I have never seen analysis so bad.

  • ross_biagini

    @virginmedia my tv internet & phone are still not working in HP6

  • Rav_Jagdev
    Rav Jagdev (@Rav_Jagdev) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute lying bast*rd of a company. New customer lied to and led up the garden path. Disgusting customer service and not receiving the service I wanted or am now being ripped off for. Engineer visit confirmed my suspicions. Just wait until Monday!

    @virginmedia terrible customer service. I recently joined. Supposed to have netflix included and have no idea how to activate it and swap my current account to it. Was supposed to get an email within 48 hours. It's been a week now and still nothing, even after a phone call
