    Mansukh (@mmpa4) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia Been a long term customer of Virginmedia and recently renewed contract along with O2 mobile but customer services has gone downhill. Having issues with Wi-Fi,phoned again today and was told technical support will call me by 1:30pm, but no one has bothered.

    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 🙄

  • spandya1

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

  • thefitebegins
    jrd1982 (@thefitebegins) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yet again Virgin Media is down and yes I have tried the checker. Why are services with VM constantly going down across the UK?

  • 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?

  • 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

  • arintsie
    A Rintsie (@arintsie) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    @virginmedia I am sorry but twice in 45 mins they cut me off as they did not know how to resolve the issue / easy way out

  • 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!

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

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

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

    Requested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Sir Geoffrey Of Rogers 🔶 #FBPE #FBPPR (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in KT12. Any idea when it will be fixed ?

  • Stefan_baisden
    Baisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Southall, England

    @virginmedia now onto the second week of no contact. No help and no communication. Imagine trying to call someone at this billion dollar company just to open a business account. And you can’t even get through for 14 days. It’s pathetic. This 02 merger has finished them.

  • 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

  • DamienPSmith
    𝓓 𝓪 𝓶 𝓲 𝓮 𝓷 (@DamienPSmith) reported from Bracknell, England

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

  • itsstheasianone
    Dukè 🇩🇪🇱🇰 (@itsstheasianone) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    anyone else’s virgin media down?

  • BeckyMorrish13
    Becky Morrish (@BeckyMorrish13) reported from Camberley, England

    Useless service from @virginmedia called 2 discuss package options on hold for ages the agent says he was trying to help them puts me on hold then put the phone down. If their customer service is like that I think I’ll try give someone else a go @skytv can you do better?

  • 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.

  • arintsie
    A Rintsie (@arintsie) reported from Marlow Bottom, England

    @virginmedia You keep cutting me off when I call ! / just email the complaint number to a member of your UK team and ask them to call me, really not that hard

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

    @virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!

  • SMillbery
    Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia Service page says no issues.

    @virginmedia hi, my mum got a call supposedly from you about the router being slow. I took over and I don’t think it was legit. They were asking me to switch off the router and put it on again. I ended the call as I was suspicious. Internet speed is fine.

  • ravipal1214
    Ravi Pal (@ravipal1214) reported

    I gave you my proposed resolution three times, two working pods shipped together, pre activated and 50% off until both function as am losing productivity and your service isn’t useful for my work. @virginmedia since I have been asked to cancel- I don’t think that proposal matters anymore.

  • selhurstpaw1
    Paul Wright (@selhurstpaw1) reported

    @biggle1908 Avoid Virgin Media at all costs. Call centres are overseas. Back up if you have real issues is very slow. Regular price increases. When you renew your contract, it will be considerably higher.

  • charles_forsyth
    Charles Forsyth (@charles_forsyth) reported

    @biggle1908 @SBarrettBar @zeninternet I have both Zen and Virgin Media (two fibres). Zen is symmetric but VM is not (here), despite Zen being half the price. Symmetry (or not) depends on the underlying infrastructure supplier. VM has been great over many years, fairly usual tech support; Zen has been excellent and the tech support is very techy. ("Symmetric" here means upload and download rate is the same; often upload is much slower.)

    @tizyfv @virginmedia They ain’t bad for me they just give me 150 ping on NaC and 130 on Middle East

    @virginmedia why is your service so bad! Broadband constantly going off, service checker cannot currently connect at the moment. No service issues reported……IT DOESN’T WORK!

    @virginmedia No need to send a DM. Managed to fix the issue. Thanks

  • GW_Mktg
    GW 🔰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GW_Mktg) reported

    @O2 terrible signal in my own home. @virginmedia have let me down (yet again) so no WiFi equals no use of phone. Long-standing client and not really feeling that benefit. Started a DM conversation which went dead. Please help

  • bahallathegreat
