    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on to the Service Status line, no issues. Used My Virgin Media app no issues raised with Broadband or TV provision. Still picture break-ups on some channels.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I can't get Amazon Prime on 3 TVs now. There's a problem I can't solve. I need an engineer. Going to phone again.

  • MJPArmario Marcas Seán Pádraic Ó Donnċú (@MJPArmario) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia worse customer service I’ve ever experienced . Write to me and give me a number to contact and here I am on hold for 15 minutes . No messaging , no digital or chat options to resolve . Need someone who knows we’re in 21st century looking at your service model .

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Yesterday 3 new boxes installed after weeks of problems. Just turned on tv..no signal. Tried another, same. Phoned & told wait times r long. Advised go on line & try to sort it. I am not a feckin tv engineer but a paying customer who is thinking of going back to Sky.

  • garye1969 gary eaves (@garye1969) reported from Bryn, England

    @mikelavelle93 @virginmedia If it is ask them to upgrade you because of how crap it is. It should be free.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Long conversation. There is definitely a problem which is not good as engineer was here Monday. Booked another visit for Friday evening. So no tv for me until Friday. Can't get Prime or Netflix. This is not satisfactory is it? I live alone, so I'm very angry.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia One tv is now working. The other 2 still saying No Signal. I haven't touched sets since engineer was here on Monday. Just used remote controls which I find inefficient.

  • MOL_FSG Chris molyneux (@MOL_FSG) reported from Warrington, England

    @CISASUK yet again you have closed my case without adjudication being completed??? I am starting to think you play a part WITH Virgin media now Extremely poor

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Planned work which is fine but the advert in writing and on the tv makes it sound good that you get data on your Virgin mobile if your broadband ever goes down. Just finding the contact for trading standards

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia just found out as I’m an oomph customer on volt I should get broadband of 350 but getting 53 jitter is beyond a joke too. What happened?

  • AMEB62 AME (@AMEB62) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia complaint about customer service and nuisance calls being received with no one on the line. Told I had been emailed to follow up complaint but no emails received. Appalling customer service #poorservice

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Engineer just left. Has sorted the problems with all 3 sets. Very considerate explaining everything to me.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @Lizzim18 @virginmedia Poor service. It's annoying isn't it?

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have 3 tv sets showing No SiGNAl. Absolutely fed up now. 3 new boxes Monday & problems with sets since. Now none is working. 😠😡

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Yes I know! They are doing essential works but you say broadband outage and you get data on your phone. That is a breach of trading standards as apparently you don’t do that

  • DarrenMoggie66 Darren (@DarrenMoggie66) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia why do ask customers to pay for gadget rescue ,they’re clueless five days running now I’ve had to contact them about the same issue ,after each day them saying the problem is resolved

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia It's worst on 601 BBC News where either part or all of the screen pixilates. But it happens on other channels to a lesser degree.

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Still a problem. Programmes we recorded Thurs & Friday are unwatchable (& not available on Catch Up for some reason)

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia are totally crap and lie. No broadband we will put it on your phone like! Call for 30 minutes beginning for help all I get is I understand

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    Problem with @virginmedia in my area. Unable to watch @jamie_murray & @BrunoSoares82 To say I'm miffed is an understatement. 😠😠

  • adam_gayle Gayle Adam (@adam_gayle) reported

    @virginmedia I need help quickly, my internet cable has been broken. Link sent not working and can’t actually talk to anyone!

  • Conoalie Ryan (@Conoalie) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, so internet is out, landline is now VOIP so it's out and I can't sign into my app via 4G as "you can't reach your servers just now". How do I register my outage? Also, stop breaking plz, it's becoming quite regular...

  • ali_getfitquick Ali (@ali_getfitquick) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke of a customer service, my service was supposed to be installed but instead I’m greeted with uninterested call centre employees that don’t want to help and keep me on hold for 45 minutes !

  • johncoxonmedia John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Have reported to you here that independent engineer confirmed my connection is OK but hub 3 is faulty & needs replacing. You advised phone 150 again to book engineer. Your system does not enable that just offers fault trouble shoot txt message.

  • mightymarkuk Mark Bell (@mightymarkuk) reported

    @virginmedia You don't have access to my account, you're going to tell me call 150. Heard it all before. You could help with the hub 4 but you refuse to. Incidentally didn't display any lights when all devices lost WiFi & it won't show me diagnostics anymore.

  • wedroveallnight Matty (@wedroveallnight) reported

    @virginmedia Still no acknowledgement to any of my complaints and still no signal. Am I going to have to go to the Ombudsman to get a resolution? Yoir CEO is out of touch with his customers and only seems to care about a silly Virgin O2 merger when we are the mugs paying for it @LutzSchueler

  • musicvideofits Music Video fits (@musicvideofits) reported

    @virginmedia I’d also like to raise a formal complaint against this customer service agent for being very rude and unhelpful

  • chasingbadger Chasing Badger (@chasingbadger) reported

    @virginmedia Yes there’s an outage. Let’s hope it’s fixed sooner than the predicted 3pm

  • dionnefowle Dionne Fowle (@dionnefowle) reported

    Why on earth is @virginmedia broadband sooooooo bad ? #workingfromhome #notworking #fastercloserjokes 🤬🤬

  • musicvideofits Music Video fits (@musicvideofits) reported

    @virginmedia No an engineer was sent out and it still didn’t work my issue now is your official customer service rep is being very rude
