    @virginmedia No estimated time. "It's a complex problem". In other words its a network fault not a line fault. Why isn't the number you shared available on your website? The service checker is useless in this scenario. The website says it's working when it isn't.

    @Mtr95 @virginmedia I’ve had the same…so frustrating…just total lack of service regularly…if I had a choice of fibre providers here I’d ditch this shambles in a heartbeat

    @virginmedia Didn’t get a response then told another dept would contact. All we want is the service we are paying for. We need a new v6 box the replacement sent doesn’t work properly(set top box) we cannot use catch up and the picture is intermittently pixilated.

    @virginmedia First thing I did, and I run them regularly. Only 53.46 Mbps download and just 9.99 upload on a supposedly 100Mbps service! On a wifi laptop right next to the router it’s just 23.43 and 10.08

    @virginmedia I think its our router etc we have poor Internet speed all the time no Internet in certain rooms i actually have better signal with next doors Internet, I've been ringing up for months with no help!

    @virginmedia poor doesn’t come anywhere near the description needed for the service you provide for a long term customer who simply needs the OLD Superhub 2ac router replacing. I simply need a replacement sent quickly but must wait for an engineer on Tuesday 4th January.

    @virginmedia Sadly no. we admitted defeat, we were on hold for 1hr 50 mins. Got through the next day, the equipment sent does not work properly now have been advised to call after the new year to chase it again. We are paying for a service we aren’t receiving this is really disappointing

    Broadband not working folks and your site keeps crashing on 4g @virginmedia

  • Ade1701
    Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Does anyone at Virginmedia ever actually answer phones? Calling from my parent’s number, supposed to be listed as vulnerable/priority. No answer for over 40 minutes! The hold music is torture, and zero indication of how long the queue is! Your customer service sucks!

  • mark_xc
    Mark Baldwin (@mark_xc) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia why are not supporting key workers through these challenging times? Both my wife and I are key workers supporting the NHS & the food industry from home yet you fail to fix our Broadband issues for 3 weeks. We can’t work. @piersmorgan @BorisJohnson

  • Ade1701
    Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Why is it your call centres and your web chat give no answer for hours on end, and your website constantly falls over returning error messages.... “Whoops! Something went wrong!” Your customer service is a joke!

  • Markycot
    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    I can’t get because Hub 3 doesn’t support it, poor quality control, worse customer service @virginmedia I want it sorted today!!

  • Markycot
    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

    @ArmchairAdml Just give notice or switch to a different provider. I had similar with Virgin media recently and literally had to have my wife try and open a new account at the address before I got a deal comparable to the new customer one.

    @virginmedia Been off nearly 24 hours. My nannan is elderly and she cant watch anything. She lives alone and pays a lot for this service. Its ridiculous.

    @UtilitaEnergy I'm abroad and unable to access my account via app or webpage, my family at home are unable to access it 1) He has visual impairment issues so is unable to read the meter, 2) @virginmedia is down so I do not know how much credit I have till I get home on Monday.

    @virginmedia My Tv service is still down Pe7 area. Every week we have issues with distorted and pixellated channels. What the hell is wrong with you people. No apology ever given. The service is a disgrace.Been with you for 12+ years. Contract up in July and then you can go to hell

  • cuddy271
    Michael Cuddington (@cuddy271) reported

    All we are getting on our tv is a scrambled picture @virginmedia are no longer the people you can rely on, they have become far too expensive , their customer service is non exsistent and people are going elsewhere.

    @darreng3007 @virginmedia Having the same issue called 150 said that there is an ongoing issue, cant find out when it might be back up and running

  • gordonwd
    David Gordon (@gordonwd) reported

    @virginmedia So you accept there's been an error processing my order and tell my you can't resolve it - I have to call your customer support team. I call them, get out on hold for 5-10 minutes and the call simply gets disconnected. Been a fan of you guys for years - I'm wavering.

    @BBCWatchdog would you be interested in my story regarding disgusting customer service off @virginmedia regarding a repayment for a bereavement issue?
