    @virginmedia you really are a shower of you know what! Had no internet for over 24 hours, and when we finally get through over an hour on hold, you can’t give us any info because your servers are down! Sort yourselves out!!!

  • catmxc cwm :3 (@catmxc) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia is there an outage in islington?? Me and my neighbours with Virgin have had no WiFi for 2 days

  • kapowaz Ben Darlow (@kapowaz) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia It’d be great if somebody could investigate that without me having to go through the support playbook of all the steps first. I need the connection for work.

  • pauldurie p2.0 ✊🏻 🏳️‍🌈 #BLM (@pauldurie) reported from London, England

    @OwenJones84 @virginmedia @JeremyVineOn5 Usually a router issue of inefficient switching between bands 2.4GHz and 5GHz Can go into router settings and explicitly set it to 2.4GHz (lower speed/better range) or 5GHz (higher speed/poorer range)

  • Alarms_Are_Us Alarms Are Us Ltd. (@Alarms_Are_Us) reported from Bushey Heath, England

    @virginmedia Probably not looking at the full conversation history then. Problem not between cabinet and house. However engineer forgot again to put notes down. Said to contact him and he abs his line manager would ensure resolution, however not returned calls or messages

  • Housewife6 Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia This is not a new issue, its been months. The wifi keeps dropping all day everyday. I believe its an external issue i need an engineer. And how do i complain about the service i am receiving?? I am paying for something iam not receiving.

  • ImaginaryCard Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Issue is still ongoing. I have called the helpline twice and after dialling my password and getting a dial tone, I have been cut off both times before speaking to anyone. Are your phone lines broken?

  • Housewife6 Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia Its now been 6 hours and nobody had called me. This is the bad service I am talking about! Its not good enough!

  • DWozza Wozza (@DWozza) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia waiting an hour on the phone and then someone puts the phone down on me, what is wrong with you guys?

  • kapowaz Ben Darlow (@kapowaz) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia It’s happening periodically on a wired connection (not wifi related). When it happens upstream drops to 150-300Kbps and downstream drops massively too. No known issues reported in my area, but it’s been happening for a few days now.

  • ImaginaryCard Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia it's been 3 hours and we still don't have WiFi. We shouldn't have to wait 48 hours of bad service for a refund when this **** happens every few days 😵#virginmediadown

  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia is their an outage in SE London ? I’ve lost everything.

  • Alarms_Are_Us Alarms Are Us Ltd. (@Alarms_Are_Us) reported from Bushey Heath, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp guess we will go another week without being able to resolve! If only you understood the actually impact this has had... #promises #fail #CustomerService

  • Housewife6 Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia I have made a formal complaint and i already have the connect app, it does not help me!

  • nishp Nishchal Patel (@nishp) reported from Harrow Weald, England

  • IAGallosi Ian Gallosi (@IAGallosi) reported from Ealing, England

    Hi @virginmedia - what’s going on this weekend? TV and broadband sporadically working. Your site says everything is ok but I’ve not been able to connect to the internet all day and the tv service is having an absolute meltdown every hour or two.

  • PaulDupree19 Paul Dupree (@PaulDupree19) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia I’m struggling paying my monthly fee & now notice it’s gone up this month as my discount offer has run out. Can you please offer me another loyalty discount or I may have to cancel. I also work for the NHS in case you offer staff any discount. Thanks in advance, Paul

  • Housewife6 Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

  • chuckieDM Chuckie (@chuckieDM) reported

    @supermanelfc @indykaila @virginmedia Just been informed I need to speak to specialist team and there wait time is 50 minutes. Shocking service, will be removing most services for virgin.

  • karibag karima tribak (@karibag) reported

    @virginmedia Please tell me why my contract has been renewed without consent and £30 more expensive. Is this my reward for being a loyal customer and after my booster exploding just before Christmas. Where is the logic!!!!

  • spoorkk Max (@spoorkk) reported

    anyone else get really excited when you get a call from virgin media scammer so you can tell them to **** off

  • MintyRod Rod Minty (@MintyRod) reported

    @BrowneKen @virginmedia The virus has been the worst thing to affect customer service. It doesn’t really exist anymore. People working from home or watching the TV, sleeping or walking the dog, while you’re trying to get through on the phone. You should think about cancelling them and going elsewhere

  • chuckieDM Chuckie (@chuckieDM) reported

    @virginmedia No call back offered #poorcustomerservice #Terrible @indykaila if you can retweet this for me mate, cause its been shocking. You have a bigger exposure. Companies take your hard money but nothing in return

  • charlieensor Charlie Ensor (He/Him) (@charlieensor) reported

    @virginmedia So am I right in thinking "service request" is their engineers coming to install the fibre optics today and installation is them connecting from there? If so, I know how to install it after the fibre optics have been fitted outside

  • McBillyuk Billy Lady of Dunans (@McBillyuk) reported

    @virginmedia so why can't you let me keep my number. I'm dyslexic and struggle with numbers. All I wanted was a new mobile with old number which isn't allowed I don't get why you can't keep the old number why virgin to virgin is allowed. Its very anti helping people with issues.

  • JenniferAnneSm6 Jenny Smith (@JenniferAnneSm6) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is the worst of any company I have the misfortune of dealing with. Contract for broadband is up in May and I will not be renewing. Just been on hold for 45 minutes to be cut off without any resolution. This is about the 10th call I have made 😤

  • WowbaggerHT Peter Walker (@WowbaggerHT) reported

    @virginmedia What has happened to your website? "Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit."

  • TheDude924 Paul (@TheDude924) reported

    @virginmedia been waiting 4 days to try and get to customer services to get my bill sorted out - and you’re now refusing new online chats - was put through to the wrong area yesterday - after waiting 9 hours…… Maybe hire some call centre staff? Is that really rocket science?….
