    @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.

  • trushar108 Trushār Patel (@trushar108) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @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

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia @peterlealfc That link doesn't work!

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia @stephen_twitt Good luck calling that customer service number. @virginmedia should try calling themselves

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 *poor

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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🙄🙄🙄

  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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 :(

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

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

  • xSonorouSx TomWilliamsMusic (@xSonorouSx) reported

    @virginmedia No network access when plugging devices in via Ethernet. WiFi won't work on my phone for some reason. And I'm getting kbps of upload and download speed on my ps4. Its a piss take to be honest.

  • StephDenman Stephanie Denman (@StephDenman) reported

    @virginmedia I haven't had issues getting through, I've had issues with the service. They've had access to my account and still can't help me. I'm really regretting signing up to VM already and our service hasnt even been installed yet!!

  • JoEdwards79 Joanne Edwards (@JoEdwards79) reported

    @virginmedia Intermittent signal - no internet at all and loss of signal in a lot of rooms of the house. I’ve reset router and done all the usual diagnostic stuff. I’m just fed up and need proper help.....

  • Botty11 Botty11 ✆ 💯 (@Botty11) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 Been through troubleshooting, replaced SIM, replaced handset but issue remains. Need to terminate contract and change provider. Virgin need to Waive charges as not fulfilling contract.

  • Nineteen791 Nineteen79 (@Nineteen791) reported

    @virginmedia You have ignored my question and showed no sympathy for my serious situation. Please give me the exact date as to when the fix shall occur. I cannot understand how this is an unreasonable request

  • ems_plain Ems aka Plain Jane (@ems_plain) reported

    @virginmedia I realised that afterwards! However my Ring device is not working at all. Can you confirm that the service will be back up and running by 12pm today as your site says. I am disabled and am totally reliant on knowing who comes to my front door

  • food_writer Fiona Beckett (@food_writer) reported

    @zuffle @virginmedia Cable. Neighbour has been having similar problem so not down to equipment or placing of router as they always want to suggest

  • RoyRoyski73 Roy Stephens (@RoyRoyski73) reported

    @virginmedia CH49 has mobile phone connection problems. Are you aware?

  • ChrisLi54189444 Chris Little (@ChrisLi54189444) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried ringing and using the messaging service and got nowhere. I have a message from 21/1/21 assuring me that everything would be disconnected on 12/2/21. Very frustrating.

  • EmmieJayneA Emmie-Jayne (@EmmieJayneA) reported

    @virginmedia Residential and no, rebooting doesn’t help! I don’t know if it’s just IPhones because my mum also struggles (as an IPhone user) but my dad doesn’t (a Samsung user). I was just wondering is all!
