  • ChantelleEJ Chantelle (@ChantelleEJ) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Thanks KT. Unfortunately it’s still not working and I have tried the online service checker and the number, it says no faults. Is the internet problem linked to the on demand problem? I’ve been out at work for 12 hours so it’s been like this all day :(

  • ChantelleEJ Chantelle (@ChantelleEJ) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. It came back on yesterday AM but was out since Thurs PM. It was always flashing green and early Sat after running a test it said it was a network issue. I was luckily not working at home on Fri. It was difficult to find out if it was me or the network for a long time.

    @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Dear Virgin Media, unlawful pretending fraudulent callers keep ringing us about a nonsense router signal issue and hacked IP network? Can you please implement preventative measures to protect vulnerable community members living in the UK. Thx

  • swimmingsu Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England

    So frustrated with @virginmedia spend over an hour on hold only to be cut off by their customer service rep #whatcustomerservice #frustrated #zerocustomerservice

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia *poor

  • DiscoEquinox Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp The problem is with getting through on the phone or live chat. It’s very easy to add or upgrade services but god help you if you want to remove any services or leave. I was on hold for over two hours last night only to be cut off. I’ve been connected to live chat since 17:43 0901

  • swimmingsu Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England

    @virginmedia 1/2 been on the phone for over an hour on hold waiting for customer service - finally get through and the customer service rep cuts me off before I even say what I want...

  • erikalesleyneal erika lesley neale (@erikalesleyneal) reported from Rothwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi I was wanting to cancel my order because I have changed my mind

  • russsanders2 russ sanders (@russsanders2) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia customer service not answering phone. How you expect to keep customers.

  • Helenfaerieart Helenfaerieart (@Helenfaerieart) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia random phone call from your tech support, issues with my router apparently, but, didn't know my name, address or account number...I guess this is phishing and fake?

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Eventually I looked at my phone and saw that they'd replied after 3 hours. I saw it half an hour later and replied but they then weren't talking to me. The next day I called up and got through after 3 minutes. Using covid as an excuse for poor service is awful.

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia The outcome of the call was what I wanted. I mean your pour service telling people to sit online for 4 hours waiting for someone to talk to me rather than call your call centres. If I'd called up straight away I'd not have needed to tweet you. You didn't even tweet back quickly.

  • DiscoEquinox Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Want to keep my broadband service only. It amazes me that you can get a response in social media almost instantly but can’t get a response elsewhere for love nor money

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I thought my issue was resolved yesterday, but today I’ve had an email saying something different. I text the number again, at 11.28am, the bot replied but nothing since then?!

  • TMITV19 Let's get back to normal #KBF (@TMITV19) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Yes after a phone call. Now I'm actively looking into moving to @skytv after the poor service.

  • OllieToogood Ollie Toogood (@OllieToogood) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia why is it impossible to speak with anyone who can help? I keep wasting hours of my time on hold to no avail

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Tried this 3 times today. It will not submit my complaint. Very handy.

  • cazzlar1985 Cazzlar!! (@cazzlar1985) reported from Burton Latimer, England

    @virginmedia @peterlealfc That link doesn't work!

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

  • Privatenugget2 Privatenugget (@Privatenugget2) reported from Irthlingborough, England

    @tiff_tv @TalkTalk That's not bad tbh i have rung virgin media been on the hold for over an hour then they just cut me off🙄🙄🙄

  • willjennings80 Will Jennings (@willjennings80) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones

  • lusianita Anita L (@lusianita) reported

    @virginmedia You can anticipate a complex fault to take longer than a few hours? Why don’t you say 2-3weeks at the start rather than sending updates with estimated “fix” times in 12h intervals. No one will take you seriously after@a week, not 4 weeks!

  • jamiebulloch 🇪🇺 Jamie Bulloch (@jamiebulloch) reported

    Internet down for the second time this week in SW9 @virginmedia. What’s going on?

  • Dolores4214 Dolores42 (@Dolores4214) reported

    @virginmedia @ExCeLLondon No internet acess in South East London for 12 hours. It is a disgrace. Virgin media is always advertising how get their service, but there is constant issues of no service in our area. It is time people should file a complaint to the Ombudsman.

  • nasherxxx ❥ Ellese (@nasherxxx) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I had a email saying that my mobile phone contract has ended and a text to say ‘thank you for contacting us’ but I haven’t contacted you nor cancelled anything… can you help please?

  • dunfy85 Dunfy (@dunfy85) reported

    @virginmedia It's my own domain but it goes via Microsoft mail services. It ends in .info which i suspect is the issue.

  • RoyHanney Roy Hanney (@RoyHanney) reported

    @virginmedia @EGX Is that something you do on the internet? I wouldn’t know cause I am a VM customer

  • Ahmed_Moghazy Ahmed Moghazy (@Ahmed_Moghazy) reported

    @DaveZ_uk @virginmedia £288 to cancel the contract you didn’t even ask for or accept?! That’s ridiculous!

  • anjor_pl anjor (@anjor_pl) reported

    @virginmedia Tweeting about my complaint C-200922132 because your resolutions team is failing to understand my emails -- for the past 2 months or so I have had full loss of broadband about 3-4 times a week for the whole night (roughly 10pm-8am).

  • RoyHanney Roy Hanney (@RoyHanney) reported

    @virginmedia @EGX @ExCeLLondon Would be nice but I haven’t had internet access for three days because I am a VM customer
