    @virginmedia how do I check my virgin status if the status page doesn't work? Is there an outage in GU21 area?

  • Chateauneuf64
    Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!

    @virginmedia The service page doesn’t work, or says there are no known faults. I’ve been going round in circles with this all week 🤬

    @virginmedia how soon before that issue is resolved? I’m in the RG12 area? Trying to work from home

  • 1SLToo
    Andy (@1SLToo) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    Merry Christmas to all at @virginmedia who have left all of us in WD3 area with no TV or Internet for over a week (predicted) and probably longer over the entire festive period, moving to sky in the new year due to your continuing rubbish service and customer service

  • itsnotO56763609
    itsnotOK (@itsnotO56763609) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia Why do you make it impossible to downgrade packages? Choosing "change package" only allowed was upgrade. Talk to customer service, they say they're only allowed to upgrade. Is the only possible to reduce package by cancelling?

  • TimHole
    Tim Hole (@TimHole) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. Just tried an old handset and still no SMS or phone calls can be received. Please help, its already caused a few problems.

  • mattrose18
    Matt Rose (@mattrose18) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia Wired and yes. Seems to have stabilised for the time being. Hopefully no more issues

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

    @virginmedia good at persuading customers to stay with them just not very good at keeping promises. Several telephone calls to customer services still not activated request for Sky Sports can't even be certain new broadband speed has been implemented might need to contact @Ofcom

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

    @virginmedia Shouldn’t I be eligible for a reasonable compensation for paying for a service that I’m not actually receiving?

  • 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.

  • Chateauneuf64
    Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia all week had total Broadband outages and down again now (past hour). Received a text from VM with link to follow (self help) and guess what, I need Internet to access! Trying to WFH just impossible. Every hour we have issues.

  • 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.

  • docklobster
    Nick (@docklobster) reported from Hillingdon, England

    Is my PC unusably slow because #Windows11 has screwed it or because @virginmedia are still messing with the local fibre network or maybe both? Either way I'm having a #technightmare #techfail

  • tobygilles

    @virginmedia Will it be a quick fix?

  • Chateauneuf64
    Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia OK guys, could you ask your team behind the scenes to turn my BB signal up just a tad, you know, enough so it actually works? As your putting your prices up would be great to experience what I'm actually paying for now! Thanks

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  • TomboBrewster
    Tom Vincent (@TomboBrewster) reported from Egham, England

    Not a great start by @virginhelp @virginmedia Engineer doesn't turn up and now 90mins and waiting on hold to find out what the issue is. Annoying we had to leave @skytv because of their broadband speed in the new house.

    @virginmedia is there an outage in Woking? No WiFi at all for 2 hours so far. 😫😫🤬

    @virginmedia I don't know. You never answer the phone when I call you.

    @virginmedia why the hell has my Internet been intermittent for over a week and after today was supposed to be the “fix” date, it’s now updated to say next week? Literally can’t work due it dropping out. Imagine there’s no compensation for you turning to **** though, hey?

    @MTBoar @virginmedia That’s just rubbish, you can take it off you want it (however have a look at the issues people have had with cancelling their Virgin media subscriptions at the end before you do…)

  • SamanthaJane_H
    Sam Sheehan (@SamanthaJane_H) reported

    @virginmedia I did direct message 4 days ago, nobody read or replied. I’ll recap- 2 weeks no service, five engineers sent to diagnose the same problem multiple times, no fix. Complaints team open and close complaints immediately with no resolution. Fix not due for at least another week.

    @biggle1908 I changed to Virgin media for that same reason. Very happy customer.

    @virginmedia - you customer service app is faulty, my TV Box is faulty how can I leave and end this poor service? Can @skytv or @EE help Me leave and get a better service?

  • Greenje84616605
    Green jello (@Greenje84616605) reported

    @biggle1908 I’ve been with virgin media for 15 years now no issues whatsoever other than they cut the power to my old WiFi router which left me with no internet connection at all . They done this because I told them my WiFi box was fine I didn’t need to upgrade. I pay £78 pm just for interne

  • pauldewolfe
    paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported

    @virginmedia Really disappointed. Called to renew my contract but couldn’t get a good enough deal, so wanted to cancel. They couldn’t process it and told me to call back. I did, gave my name, email, ph number, bank details and last payment, but they still couldn’t pass security.
