    @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 Just called your offshore call centre regarding my internet connection. I’m having the same issues as I had when I got a £154 credit from you. /1

    @virginmedia so struggling with WiFi signal dropping out again, fixed couple of days ago via automated check. Now can’t get through on phone how am I supposed to get WiFi working again?

    @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.

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

  • 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...

  • notdodgy
    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.

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

    @virginmedia Internet down again (had engineer here Monday). Cut off after a 62 minute wait! Tried the app won't let me log in as my password is wrong and it hasn't sent me any new password link (2 hours ago).

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  • 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!

  • isunhita
    Sunhita Ing (@isunhita) reported from Stratford-upon-Avon, England

    @virginmedia really appalled with our experience as a new customer (15years with previous supplier). Mix ups with installation. Overcharged. Waiting in for installers not turning up. Closing of a complaint that was escalated. Chasing. No resolution. Want to leave already!

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

    £117 a month & @virginmedia down again plus still haven’t had my booster I was promised in Feb 21 & June 22

    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

  • villans1982
    Mark Jones (@villans1982) reported from Halesowen, England

    Virgin internet down yet again. Every day it’s getting embarrassing #virginmedia #poor #embarrassing

  • SharonNaokes
    sharon Elizabeth Noa (@SharonNaokes) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia My main issue is that I need to speak to someone!! How do I do that? The line is constantly busy and won’t even put me on hold, the website says I need to speak to someone to deal with my requests! Can you see my problem? It’s appalling.I’m paying for a service I’m not receiving

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

    Had problems with my TV since September now can’t get any live football or movies @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Just phoned, spent 35 minutes on hold, call answered, questions asked, checks being carried out.......... Phone gets put down!!! Do you expect me to call again for the same atrocious service?? @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog

    @virginmedia service status checker ……… nope, That’s not working either

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

    @virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

    @virginmedia With all due respect, the engineers have been there all day, I saw two of them having a 40 minute lunch break at 10am at Greggs. Can you push these engineers to get this completed today? Compensation isn’t a valid response to not being able to work - ridiculous service

  • TheWayWeWillBe
    The Way We Will Be (@TheWayWeWillBe) reported

    @virginmedia so cross with you again today Not only is the broadband up and down as usual (but tests show fine) but you won’t allow me to log in from my Apple Mac and you won’t allow me to update parental controls Useless

  • weyland76

    .@virginmedia my TV box will not record anything. Every recording says "recording failed due to a technical issue" but I have no idea what that issue is?

  • AFC_OSRS
    Cobes (@AFC_OSRS) reported

    @j_ball13 @virginmedia Ignore them till the death certificate they can't do ****, all smoke n mirrors. Had that issue with my uncle passing. 1 email in writing and when obtained provide death certificate.

  • redmollster
    Sammo (@redmollster) reported

    @virginmedia how do we get a new HBO activation email? We have TNT sports but don't appear to have the invitation email. All the online help simply sends us round in circles and trying to get through on the phone takes ages. Surely this should be quick and simple?

  • Hayden_Willan
    hayden willan (@Hayden_Willan) reported

    @virginmedia So what’s the point of the online renewal journey? Is the system designed to help customers, or just to annoy them?

  • sworrall36628
    Wozza (@sworrall36628) reported

    @virginmedia why is it that I have contacted you 3 times to swap out 2 my wired mini boxes to replace with 2 streaming boxes and I am still yet to receive an email confirming the change! Poor that I spent over 40 mins on chat last week (3rd time) rubbish CX!

  • Driftinuphill
    Glen Dickson (@Driftinuphill) reported

    Virgin Media? Hi tech? Can't resolve a 4 day old broadband problem. Piss poor service. Piss poor communication. Said I'd get email updates but I can't log in to Virgin email. Chancers.

    Will (@willmgreenhalgh) reported

    @virginmedia is down So forced to use data but @O2 is so slow and bad it struggles to connect to anything and the o2 network app says phone masts aren't working Great service all round, not, what's the point of doubling my data if I can't connect to anything

    @QxPain_ @virginmedia Restart phone then should connect to WiFi ensure it connects to your network then test with opening a browser and running a speed test
