    @virginmedia As I am a sane human being, I’ve already looked online for help. Why answer like this - an obvious bot response. ??

  • dazholdcroft1
    Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Well if it’s so far taken 5 years I’d say it’s never going to happen surly

    CANNOT WAIT until we leave @VirginMedia in a few months time. Non stop internet issues for months now. I’d urge everyone to swerve Virgin Media. Better companies out there who do more and cost less.

    £117 a month & @virginmedia down again plus still haven’t had my booster I was promised in Feb 21 & June 22

    @KellyQuilt @virginmedia Virgin are hopeless for ease of contact. My daughter was with them and the service wasn’t at all good. This nonsense about calling them at a time to suit them is just ludicrous. They need to admit that they (& others) don’t staff adequately to suit their customers convenience. 🤬

  • robintjohnson8
    Robin Johnson (@robintjohnson8) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. While I’m on the subject - why does it ALWAYS take multiple attempts to sort anything out with VM? Your WhatsApp and online support workers usually sign off with ‘rest assured you will not have to contact us again’. But this is rarely true?

  • Samsmilew
    Samantha Worrall (@Samsmilew) reported from Warwickshire, England

    @virginmedia trying to check service status update Ona local issue. No website access to do it, we have TV now but still no internet CV34 6? Can you help?

  • MrsDont09
    helen somerville (@MrsDont09) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia whats happening with the service in B29 area. Been off and on past 24 hours.

  • amancalledalex
    Alex Barker (@amancalledalex) reported from Coventry, England

    @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK I had a problem with @virginmedia which eventually got sorted out, but not before going to their Executive Team. Customer care was nonexistent on the phones. Customer care is challenging but staff need to show much more empathy with the customer.

  • rjoberns

    @virginmedia service status checker ……… nope, That’s not working either

  • meclareyb
    Clare (@meclareyb) reported from Birmingham, England

    Very pleased to publicly announce we are leaving virgin media. I have never known such a diabolical internet service - current situation our 100mb per whatever it is means our internet is unstable for any zoom session. Utterly ridiculous. Hoorah for us 🙌🏻

  • zcobb
    Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported from Coventry, England

    I just spent about 20 minutes trying to find out why I'm getting email from @virginmedia about a SIM that I didn't order. As far as I can tell, the email is legit and Virgin is sending me, and a lot of other people, a replacement SIM "to improve service." Did I miss a memo?

  • all_day_
    Mathew (@all_day_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hey guys whatever I try to play back or if I rewind live tv to play back the boxing is terrible so much so you’re unable to watch the programme. The wires are all connected fine and all other internet devices are fine. What’s the issue?

  • pinkz_afc
    Pinkz (@pinkz_afc) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia why is your customer service so shizzle! All i want is my confirmation of cancellation date email.

  • zcobb
    Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported from Coventry, England

    Me: Can you tell your supervisor that this email looks a lot like a phishing email? Support Person @virginmedia: I know, a lot of people have said that.

    James DR Brown (@jamesbrown39) reported from Warwickshire, England

    @virginmedia Before your status site stopped working it said you were aware of an issue in are area and it could be fixed by 2200hrs this evening!!!! Now you are not aware??? Please what is going on??

  • jamesbrown39
    James DR Brown (@jamesbrown39) reported from Warwickshire, England

    @Shafik32296732 @virginmedia It is down in CV34 as well. Before the service status site crashed it was saying it was expected a fix by 2200hrs this evening!!!

  • ___Mezzala
    Riz 🌹🇬🇧 (@___Mezzala) reported from Birmingham, England

    @AGJ27_ @TwiitterJo @virginmedia Ours has gone down… Again. The 5th time this evening. I’ve had enough of this ****. Genuinely can’t wait to leave. Never experienced such awful service in my life.

  • meclareyb
    Clare (@meclareyb) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia you claim we get 100 whatever’s per second. So tell me. Why my internet doesn’t work. I can’t stay on a zoom as my “internet is unstable” and live tv “jumps” not streams. You sent somebody to resolve last time. It’s now repeated this behaviour again. Why do that?

  • Rob_Hicks
    W1NGNUT (@Rob_Hicks) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Doesn't matter now, we've terminated the contract and joined Three home broadband. I just think it's disgusting that a customer of over 10 years doesn't get offered a deal as good as a new customer.

  • tacksf0rsnacks_
    Jσѕιє (@tacksf0rsnacks_) reported from Exeter District, England

    @virginmedia seeing as your internet is down across the whole south west, perhaps you would like to pay for my phone contract this month if I go over my data? Seems only fair, no? Seeing as I always have problems with you...

  • DemsSlater
    Demi (@DemsSlater) reported

    @virginmedia seems the whole of Devon is down yet your website says my broadband is ok! … ITS NOT!! PL postcodes are heavily impacted #dosomething

  • JulieGalt
    Julie Galt (@JulieGalt) reported

    @virginmedia The service status line is saying that there are no issues? Our internet is down, the tv doesn’t work??

  • Tylerkin93
    Tyler Lander (@Tylerkin93) reported

    . @virginmedia rather than keep giving people a bullshit response asking them to check their connection when quite clearly there is a widespread connection issue why don’t you get your people to do their job and find out what the issue is while you accept responsibility

  • nicola_buckley9
    Nicola Buckley (@nicola_buckley9) reported

    @virginmedia Yes that’s right. I don’t know what happened to the call investigation, no one could tell me. Another complaint was raised but resolution was ‘apology to customer’ which I haven’t actually had! Now I have to take the complaint externally. Shocking it has got to this point.
