  • chriswoods84 Woodsy (@chriswoods84) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia only had internet installed last week. For about the 15th time it's dropped out. Fed up of sitting on phone on hold. Service update page says all ok. Clearly isn't

  • KernowPrincess Lynn Gower (@KernowPrincess) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet appears to be up and down for RG30 2QT

  • daddysdahmer Soph (@daddysdahmer) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet keeps dropping out in RG30 and then completely went. No issues showing on your site. Tried restarting router but still no internet!!!

  • chriswoods84 Woodsy (@chriswoods84) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia I've done all that. It's been intermittent all day. I've reset. I've turned on and off. I've sat on hold. It's a ridiculous service

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    Getting a bit fed up of @virginmedia marketing calls that just hang up when I indicate I’m not interested - not even giving me the chance to opt out - #GDPR rule breaking....

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I made a GDPR complaint to you at the time of writing that tweet it was acknowledged, my preferences were updated (apparently) and yet I STILL get calls. Not a word of an apology in that letter though. Didn’t think anything would tempt me back to Sky..

  • melvinabrose millie p RN RHV QN (@melvinabrose) reported from High Wycombe, England

    Virgin media just rubbish. Just so disappointed in a service that for the past 2 months has been rubbish. Worked all over the house and even in the garden for all the time we have been customers but now only working on one side of the house and not upstairs.

  • mathers1981 Stephen Marshall (@mathers1981) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke of a service. Try and leave them as they are having your pants down each month and it’s like trying to escape Alcatraz. Awful firm

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    The @virginmedia amazing service continues, pay £13.99 for a film that you cannot watch due to technical error 🙄 look online, seems common & responses unhelpful, hurry up @SkyUK & get faster broadband here so I can switch!

  • mikeyh817 Mike (@mikeyh817) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia According to your fault page there’s nothing wrong yet when you call they agree there’s a problem. Again poor service from yourselves when your departments can’t agree!!!

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Exactly - hands washed of the issue. I don’t need an update, you’ve told me it’s done. It isn’t.

  • RJHOTCHEF Ryan Wilson (@RJHOTCHEF) reported from Fleet, England

    @AlyInASpin @virginmedia Weird we are having the same problem #lag , @virginmedia whats the problem please. Very annoying now

  • dionne_angus Dionne Angus (@dionne_angus) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia trying to watch a film on Netflix only for my tv to keep flashing up wired LAN cable is disconnected then wired network is connected what is going on I pay for virgin and Netflix and getting fed up

  • spice1971 Graeme Spice (@spice1971) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia Maybe you can pass on the fact 2 calls to two separate call centres (first was India, second Scotland) both dropped mid call. Assuming it wasn’t the operators maybe there is an issue. Didn’t happen to Philpines on third call. Annoying when hold times are long

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    Broadband service improved, good speed and customer service follow-up. Thank you @virginmedia much improved service.

  • InflightJames James (@InflightJames) reported from Wokingham, England

    Absolute SHIT customer service from @virginmedia today. Due have an iPhone delivered yet “for some reason” it was cancelled. Thanks for that.

  • basicbloke2012 Basic Bloke (@basicbloke2012) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia I did this last week and again twice this week All says there is an issue and I need to talk to someone

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    Intermittent network service from @virginmedia again, seems I need to use my reliable personal hotspot from @VodafoneUK - at least I have a fallback plan.

  • markblunden MarkBlunden (@markblunden) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia you’re broadband has gone from great to very unreliable. It seems to drop out regularly now. Paying a lot for your service sort it out!!

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Sorry to say that I contacted your online chat, but they offered no significant update other than 9th Sept for a fix and no offer of compensation as I am not experiencing a total loss of service. Not happy at all.

  • sarahbloomers Sarah McDonnell (@sarahbloomers) reported

    @virginmedia Just thought I’d keep you in the loop as you were so interested. Still no wifi and nothing happened in over a week. My husnband has probably spent 12 hours or more on the phone but nobody wants to help. Any wise ideas?

  • sadtb_ Sadia (@sadtb_) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on with your service? Our wifi has been cutting off every ten minutes for months now and it shouldn’t be for the fibre optic package we pay for. Tried getting through to your technical support and I’ve been on hold for hours. Can you help please?

  • missradhikaj Radhika Jesani (@missradhikaj) reported

    @virginmedia Tried this and was informed that only a technician would be able to assist with this problem as it seems to be an issue with the cables

  • hbanana80 hkadiyeh@gmail.com (@hbanana80) reported

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia @virginhelp So I've called customer services again and again. With promises of a call back. I've not had a cal back and I still have a hole in my property from the engineer that installed the internet in my home. What's the plan and what are your thoughts?
