    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Your system sent me a satisfaction survey. Needed to complete it using mobile broadband because my virgin broadband doesn't actually work, but is apparently working enough to not qualify as being out of service.

    @barbs_paul @EE Up there with @virginmedia, horrendous service for existing customers!

  • pixiero79
    RosieGee (@pixiero79) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Trying to work from home with an internet connection regularly dropping out is a nightmare. This is an ongoing problem yet no service fault in my area. I am paying for a service I am not consistently receiving. Been a customer for many years but thinking of moving...

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

    @virginmedia can you help! Or be the useless internet provider you have been for ages!!!!!! No ******* internet is 12!!!!!! ******* joke

    Steve Deery (@SteveDeery) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia That hasn't helped. I just want to talk to somebody. No known service problems in my area

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia our broadband is down flashing green light. The service page has a fault shown but check status says its working fine. You need diagnostics for your diagnostics...

    @virginmedia is there any issues with internet today? It’s been down for three hours now

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia once again on demand not working. How are you supposed to watch a sky movies film when it stops every 10 seconds to spin a wheel for 10 seconds. Service checker says its fine and the box has been rebooted.

    Anybody in B37 with a @virginmedia box having problems with their boxes rebooting? Ours has done it twice without warning this evening.

    Only 3 months until i can get rid of @virginmedia awful internet even worse customer service!

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

    @virginmedia your service is worse than ever, no wifi for a week and all you keep saying is it is very complicated and your engineers are trying to fix it

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Every morning around 9:30 this week, our business broadband has stopped working. Lights look normal and we need to power cycle to get service back. What's going on? Postcode B90 3BD Do you have a back up option available as this affects card payments.

  • HelenAbdullah08
    💙 Helen Abdullah 💙 (@HelenAbdullah08) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia We tried the messaging service thank you that didn’t help either. To be honest we are dreading trying to contact you again in the new year to get this sorted another 2 hours on the phone! I would have thought it your responsibility to sort this out but apparently not!

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @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!

  • RobinB1971
    Robin 🤘🏻 (@RobinB1971) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia signed up for your new broadband and still waiting for the stuff to arrive. Apparently parcel is still at @YodelOnline main hub. This is the SECOND day I've cancelled things and waited for it to arrive as yet to no avail. WTF is going on!?! 🤬

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @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.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia 45 mins on hold then cut off over 100 quid a month TV not working yet again!

  • frugalista1
    Frugalista (@frugalista1) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia TV completely down this morning ,it’s been intermittent since September nobody helps me just fobbed off. Who is the ombudsman over you I can complain to? I’m no longer prepared to keep paying for services I’m not getting.

    @virginmedia Why can't I login in. In a constant verification loop between the website and my email address.

    So I guess I am not the only one who is having problems with @virginmedia today and the past couple of WEEKS.....💔 Honestly what is going on.....

  • peter_mcclurg
    Peter mcclurg (@peter_mcclurg) reported

    @virginmedia Can you sort the Intermittent connections in ML5 North Lanarkshire of Scotland area please. Utter garbage customer service. Two hours and still no call answered. 28 years a customer and definitely no more when renewal is due.

  • Dgjbear1
    Dgjbear (@Dgjbear1) reported

    @virginmedia Hiya. I’ve been on hold trying to get through to your team that deals with retention for an hour. AN HOUR. And you want to increase my monthly fee by 50%? For this level of customer service?

  • unknown74user
    Un (@unknown74user) reported

    @virginmedia Do you have any English people working for you who can hold an actual conversation and help with my request? Or should I just cancel my direct debit and wait for you to try contact me instead? Everything about your system sucks

  • av47ar
    av47ar (@av47ar) reported

    @kelly_twidale @virginmedia When we changed to 360 the V6 could no longer watch recorded programs if you didn't have an internet connection or theres a problem with a service.

  • DevilHatman
    Hatz (@DevilHatman) reported

    @virginmedia what on earth is going on? My upload speed has been dogshit since Friday/Saturday. Today along it's dropped from about 25mb/s to less than 10mb/s. All your site says is "intermittent issues in the area"... which is so regular its utterly redundant now

  • murphyireland83
    Its Murphy (@murphyireland83) reported

    @virginmedia yo… why does everyone who works for you just lie their faces off? 2 days no internet engineer said someone would be out to pull a line within the hour.. 4 hours later no show, call customer service and the promised me a call back by 6pm. another lie, now sat on hold

  • saoirseisla
    Isla (@saoirseisla) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been without wifi for 10 days. All I am being told is that they don’t know when it’ll be fixed. I work from home and have been unable to get anything done because I need wifi. I’m a week behind. I need it fixing asap. The problem isn’t my end it’s yours.

  • john1mccarthy
    John M (@john1mccarthy) reported

    @virginmedia I'm shocked!! Someone actually called me just now. Albeit 4 days late, but I guess that's just how you guys work. No real news, I'm still not due any form of service from you until May 14th, so a bit of a waste. Amazing what a bit of negative pr on X can do
