    @virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.

  • MikeBiscoe1
    Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    If anyone is interested in how much @virginmedia are overcharging for their dreadful service, Iโ€™ve just been offered a price match on cancellation to move to a different supplier. ยฃ27.50/month for a service for which they originally increased price to ยฃ105/month

  • Rochdale_Cowboy
    Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Took out an @O2 account as part of some 'volt' deal with @virginmedia. My god O2 are bad. Apparently you have to wait a few months to access your account online to wait until their systems "catch up" for new joiners. Shouldn't have bothered.

  • Flozephine
    Flo (@Flozephine) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia no broadband in RG12 for over an hour - canโ€™t report on your service status page as it appears down? Any update gratefully received ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

    @virginmedia Internet is down in GU51 since yesterday. When will it be up? Can't report it online, because we have no internet for it to check with!

  • mattrose18
    Matt Rose (@mattrose18) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia TV is an issue. broadband is not. Tests are always either cannot connect at this time or say there is nothing wrong. Donโ€™t see how my kit in the house can one minute have speeds on +300Mb to next to nothing?

  • 6thDr

    Today I finally changed my phone. Goodbye #virginmedia #virginmobile never again shall I have such awful customer service service.

  • pmross
    Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England

    Dear @VirginMedia, after 3x visits from technicians over 6 months (one of whom LIED about fixing bb/WiFi) Iโ€™m now back to no service (48 hours). Yes, tried rebooting, off/on etc, status says everything OK, Called yesterday and there IS an issue. When are you going to fix it?

  • Pablocollier
    Paul Collier (@Pablocollier) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Sorry but no. If you can't monitor your own service provision why should I ?

  • TheBadgerG
    Thom Gibbons (@TheBadgerG) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes, zero issues in area for broadband, pulled apart and reset the router numerous times. It just keeps wanting to download new settings, works for a bit and then fails. Engineer now booked for next Wednesday which is an eternity running my business from home.

    @virginmedia I have followed every instruction as advised. Turned off, set, check status and even network issue in area.. it just keeps dropping out daily with no know issues. Itโ€™s as if faster broadband has actually slowed it all down! Pse sort it out

    @virginmedia @misselledee Do you think that no service might mean the Internet page might not be available

    @virginmedia what kind of tin-pot internet service are you providing? Broadband outages for multiple hours on April 4th, April 6th and now today, April 12th

  • paragaz
    Garry (@paragaz) reported from Streetly, England

    @virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service

  • CraigA3
    Craig Aldridge (@CraigA3) reported

    @virginmedia I have messaged you team online, replied to their emails and tried calling. But your team told me my package wouldn't change as I moved home then have sent me a contract for 4x as much and then decided to not pass security with me to fix. It's an evil scam

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    An in-place upgrade which is causing a 10 day outage - pretty awful planning @virginmedia. And telling us it would be fixed in 1 day, then 2 days, then 4 days, then 3 days, then 4 days, then 10 days - is a bit of a joke.

  • coomerdarren
    Darren Coomer (@coomerdarren) reported

    @O2 What an absolute joke of a company since virgin media i can't access my O2 app spoken to 2 people who said they will get this issue resolved & again nothing i still can't us the O2 app because I need a virgin account ******* sort it out !!

    Paul Parkin (@kingoftheshed) reported

    @virginmedia This is pathetic now, the signal drops out every half hour. Not really sure what Iโ€™m paying for now.
