    Alien-**** (@CosmicHustler) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia Any chance of some kind gesture of goodwill to a very long-term customer (Telewest days) and long-term isolator due to suppressed immune system, struggling without a working & very necessary distraction...

    Justin James Clack (@JustinJmsClac) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia what is wrong with your broadband lately? Laggy services, **** streaming, **** internet activity? Can you explain please? I tried calling your number to complain but your services are crap there too.

    @virginmedia Don’t try and pass the buck! It’s NOT a windows issue, it ONLY occurs on this Virgin network!

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

    @virginmedia It says no known issues but there is one as it is exactly the same problem we have had for a week. We were promised it would be fixed by 09:00 today

    Nickins (@ninsull) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia how can you spend nearly an hour on two phones to report a problem with no one picking up. Yet ask me if il refer you. @next stop I’m cancelling my contract.

    @virginmedia footy on BBC1 through virgin box about 5 minutes behind tonight. Not good service

    @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!

    @virginmedia what are the customer service hours at the moment?

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Is there an email address I can use instead? I can just tell them the address and send the photos and explain the problem. They turn up whenever and fix it (its on the street, so no one needs to be home) I’ve taped up the lower parts, but up higher it is hanging over a shop sign.

    Ade1701 (@Ade1701) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia After a couple more wasted hours and speaking to two more useless, rude and incompetent call centre operatives your customer retention team actually listened. Might help if ALL your call centres were UK based and had some compassion.

    @KRIPTO99 @virginmedia I’m currently surveying my village on our local Facebook group. Loads of people having the same issue, but nothing coming up as a ‘known network issue’. I agree - it’s making working from home challenging.

  • lorna_conway
    Doonie (@lorna_conway) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia It's not an issues according to the site. It's working on wired connections. I'll be looking for compensation after this. If the costomer tells you there's a problem then take their word they're the ones paying you, why would they spend money other than to get what they pay for.

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

    @virginmedia Internet and TV down yet again and this after a debacle of a mis sold “extra” remote control this weekend, absolute disaster and terrible customer service!

  • SprocketEtQuill
    Sam Greenland (@SprocketEtQuill) reported

    @virginmedia Another Virgin Media engineer came out again to bury the cable from house to street. The cable is now in trunking over ground and the internet service was severed. You have said it will take yet another on-site engineer to fix the connection and left me without a connection for the week - until an engineer is available. You have, however, paid £100 towards the cost of the alternative internet provider. Your logic was £30 for data (on a #GiffGaff SIM card which I chose) and £70 for a dongle. I bought a £120 4G modem for external use that connects directly to my #Unifi switch on WAN2, bypassing your hub altogether and giving a connection back to my whole house rather than just one computer with a USB port. Given it's taken since November to bury this cable, I'm not convinced tomorrow's engineer will be able to fix the connection or bury the cable. We will see how the day unfolds. Your contact centre staff all aim to be very helpful, and your service (when it's working) does provide a decent connection most of the time, but your implementation is lacking.

    @O2 is **** for customer service since the Virgin Media merger constantly logged out an log back in won’t let me pay on the app can never get through when I’m at work sort this **** out man I’ve been with you forever same number everything

    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia Internet, and subsequently TV, have been down since yesterday in G67 area. Someone posted a picture of the junction box knocked over, any idea of how long to fix? I work from home and need the Internet to do my job. This needs fixed ASAP.

    @virginmedia Right, I’ve tried calling these things. None worked Which suggests it’s an app issue.

    @virginmedia I have Netflix as part of my deal. I’ve been told 4 times that an email will be with me in 24 hours. Still no email after 8 days. Everyone promised but no delivery’s. This seems to be a regular issue.

    @AncientJellyTot @virginmedia Same problem with religious callers but one replied with "Jesus would want to use to talk to you whatever your sign says". I had to stifle a giggle as I closed the door.

    @UKDan86 @virginmedia Defending a multi billion pound company who can’t even offer a service you pay for is a new low for you Dan.
