  • katesj1983 Kate (@katesj1983) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia It appears to be both..as both my WiFi and wired connections are being slow compared to usual

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

    @virginmedia Really need to consider my options and look at other service providers - ongoing intermittent service for a week now and keep getting fobbed off by you CSA's - I think you may want to consider reviewing your customer services. #badcustomerservice #virginmedia

  • kyle2tweet kyle2tweet (@kyle2tweet) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia looks like I’ll have to cancel my direct debit coming out next month maybe that will get this call back I’ve been promised. Terrible terrible company!

  • donnataylor7 Donna Webster (@donnataylor7) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t receive my new contract on April, was not told of 6 month discount price shot up and I had to fight to get my billing date changed. Overall not a good service 😡. Took me over 30 mins on telephone to try and resolve

  • mattrobertsCFC Matt Roberts (@mattrobertsCFC) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia Definitely not broadband on, @amazonprimesport need to sort out their network.

  • katesj1983 Kate (@katesj1983) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Already done that and run tests nothing..and it’s still a mess. My wired connections are also going super slow as well as WiFi

  • perrycoke Kezza 🙃 (@perrycoke) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia twice I’ve been on hold to customer service for 25mins only to get cut off. My broadband & TiVo hasn’t been working since 4pm. I’ve tried restarting the hub many times, checked the connections as well. I work from home & this is not what I need right now.

  • roballan07 Rob Allan (@roballan07) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Yes when talking about the quality of customer service I have received from @virginmedia in the past week.

  • StJamesofFleet James Snyder (@StJamesofFleet) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia been on hold for 25 on a second call. The first disconnected. Problems with BB for three days and now the hub doesn’t even power on after an apparent update!

  • Noice113 Noice1 (@Noice113) reported from Finchampstead, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to cancel and on three occasions have asked for help my bills have gone up by 45% no explanation shame on you

  • donnataylor7 Donna Webster (@donnataylor7) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I have resolved it now but I’m tired of having to fight to get a good service. I had to threaten to report it to Watchdog before getting through to someone who could help.

  • flyingjok John Neilson (@flyingjok) reported from Camberley, England

    @dgrutsch @virginmedia @SkyMediaUK @virginmedia has lost direction and customer focus IMO. After trying to tell me there was no fault in my area, before agreeing for an engineer to visit and check system (multiple faults) it proposed sending a pack of cables for me to try and fix myself. Err I don’t think so!

  • philip_e_davies Philip E Davies (@philip_e_davies) reported from Wokingham, England

    @sabrakhan @virginmedia Mine used to be fast but got very slow a couple of weeks ago

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

    @virginmedia just love paying for services which I'm not getting! Seriously sort it out or I will be going elsewhere. No tv, no internet your service is an absolute joke!

  • perrycoke Kezza 🙃 (@perrycoke) reported from Hurst, England

    @virginmedia I managed to get through to customer services in the end & now have an engineer booked for 2moro between 7am & 12pm. Going to cost me half a days work now.

  • CorneliusEvans Chris Evans (@CorneliusEvans) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Netflix is not working with our broadband service you might want to looking in to this as all other streaming service work fine. P.s I’m VM service tech 😉

  • danarnie Danny Daly-Arnett (@danarnie) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia I ring and get hung up on after being on hold for 6 minutes. I just want what I was offered on Friday. I am not very happy with the customer service I am receiving at the moment and will just walk away. I have been a customer for 10 years and get no perks just bigger bills

  • danarnie Danny Daly-Arnett (@danarnie) reported from Bracknell, England

    @laaqpr @virginmedia The new one is. “It’s all gone through” Then never receive an email and still paid what you are paying with the “system” saying I never called

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

    @virginmedia how do I cancel my contract with you. My broadband is constantly going down and for the price I pay your services are not worth it especially as i am on limited money. So I am looking at going to sky thank you

  • kyle2tweet kyle2tweet (@kyle2tweet) reported from Bracknell, England

    @JackSheaFFC @virginmedia I know so if I’m waiting for a call back then OBVIOUSLY I’ve already raised a complaint 🤣 no common sense with this company!

  • _MrKen Ken N (@_MrKen) reported

    @virginmedia It's showing as fixed with no issues now even though others in the same area are having the same problem. Apparently I have an appointment for tomorrow, but the my virginmedia app isn't showing anything so I'll see whether anyone shows up. 😔

  • Lulu_Pine Lulu Pine (@Lulu_Pine) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently not staying back though!!! Lost it again about 20 mins ago - same as yesterday no broadband but service status page says no problems for me but an outage for my neighbours - we need stability & accurate information #noVMbroadbandagain

  • JC_Fpl #FPL JC (@JC_Fpl) reported

    @virginmedia Is has been installed and activated, but I specially told the guy who called me I do not want it live. He said this was fine and it wouldn’t be made live until I called up. This was not the case and been billed ever since. I would never have had the pre install done or anything.

  • kaejlaab The General (@kaejlaab) reported

    @virginmedia How are you fixing an “upgrade” which is what I was told the outage was due to.

  • bungaorbust Bunga Bunga (@bungaorbust) reported

    @virginmedia Errr'm YES! Done everything Virgin told me to do every time this happens, NO issues, there never are, it's network/server outage, or ongoing repairs, it always is, the problem is always the same & reported 100's of times by other people on Twitter! #virginmediadown @virginmedia

  • IanP Ian Pond (@IanP) reported

    Hi @virginmedia - Second day of no access to my blueyonder email account, call your technicians to be told the service has been stopped!. Is that the case? No prior notice given?

  • JC_Fpl #FPL JC (@JC_Fpl) reported

    @virginmedia So basically I have to carry on as j was? With no help or responses? Great 👍🏻

  • JonathanTerry01 Jonathan Terry (@JonathanTerry01) reported

    @virginmedia I called you're appalling customer service team today and despite spending an hour on the phone 2 weeks ago, nothing was action. You have overcharged me £150 because your stupid staff can't do their job

  • NoxInABox_ Free birb (@NoxInABox_) reported

    @sketchybasic2 Virgin media is the only virgin you can trust to go down on you

  • NoxInABox_ Free birb (@NoxInABox_) reported
