  • smithsterbloke Gary Smith (@smithsterbloke) reported from Bracknell, England

    Called to discuss end of contract and to retain my business (especially during uncertain times and current my employment status) and help reduce costs. Told it’s going to cost £15 more than we already are on! SO MUCH FOR SUPPORTING US! DISGUSTED! @virginmedia

  • mmaaccss Macsi (@mmaaccss) reported from Wokingham, England

    @CarolynBe @virginmedia Still not working for meeee :( Xx

  • ginaatinknight gina knight (@ginaatinknight) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia not think much if the service from virgin media so far not great for new customers

  • K74Marti Marti Jerrard - K74 (@K74Marti) reported from Farnborough, England

    @lastdart @virginmedia I am with you on this one. They may have me over a barrel right now but when this is all over and normal service is resolved they can say farewell to this customer. If this is the way they treat loyal customer then #SirRichardBranson is in for a big expensive shock.

  • catch_cancer Catch Me If You Cancer (@catch_cancer) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia good afternoon. I've been on hold for 3 hours and been cut off twice. I'm a vulnerable customer and need to speak to someone

  • Cooper100Nicola Nicola Cooper (@Cooper100Nicola) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I’m still waiting for someone to reply to me about my bill. I get cut off when I try to phone, the online complaint form receives an error on every submission, there is no chat functionality available and I can’t get a reply in social media. Please advise ASAP. Thank you.

  • cobysaur Ryan Byford (@cobysaur) reported from Wokingham, England

    I wonder if @virginmedia and @vodafoneuk use the same backbone or something. Both services are down or extremely slow since 17:00

  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Followed all you suggested actions, and still no joy. Also have a complaint open COM103973949, someone should have got in touch within 24h. 2 days and still nothing.

    Hi @virginmedia, I'm trying to pay a bill through your app, but every time I try to pay, it keeps saying ”session has timed out” and has done for the last couple of days. Before this, I've never had an issue with it but it's not happening this time. Please advise. Thanks.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • benreade Ben Reade (@benreade) reported

    In a useless circular bot chat with Virgin for over a month. Jokers trying to charge £62.50pcm for home broadband! @Vodaphone4 have already set me up £19. @virginmedia I'm reaching out here in an effort to communicate with a human who can finally confirm wtf is going on. @Ofcom

  • sharonjane3103 Sharon G (@sharonjane3103) reported

    @virginmedia do you have a customer service department that actually assists your customers ? 11 calls to you in a week, 3 of them today. On hold for an hour. £100 added to my bill. Someone turning up for an appt that I know nothing about ? Service is nothing short of shocking.

  • KellieKnowles Kellie Knowles (@KellieKnowles) reported

    @virginmedia This is still not ok! I have had the phone put down on me, been told lies, and falsely offered a service which you don’t seem to be able to deliver! It takes 2 days to arrange a permit from the council, not 9 weeks! Nobody seems to be taking responsibility for this problem!

  • ReQzvl Hieu (@ReQzvl) reported

    @Hyperzxz @virginmedia its actually 45 mins now wtf

  • chrisfishdish Dazed&Confucius (@chrisfishdish) reported

    @virginmedia She’s on the phone to you right now, if there’s no resolution then I’ll get her to contact through this

  • MsEmmaClifford Emma Clifford (@MsEmmaClifford) reported

    Heads up for anyone wanting Carrie Hope Fletcher tour tickets today but are not an O2 priority member. If you are a virgin media customer you can sign up to O2 priority with your virgin media email account as they have merged together.

  • KellieKnowles Kellie Knowles (@KellieKnowles) reported

    @virginmedia I have already raised a complaint two weeks ago. Still no contact!!!!

  • benreade Ben Reade (@benreade) reported

    @virginmedia I'm cancelling. here on @Twitter I finally get someone to acknowledge me in minutes! Maybe focus some energy on less public forums as well! I'm amazed your level of customer service is legal. @Ofcom

  • chrisfishdish Dazed&Confucius (@chrisfishdish) reported

    @virginmedia We can’t find anything in her emails. We definitely cancelled within 14 days, we were loyal customers with virgin for years, how can you treat struggling families this way, we can’t afford to pay £320 for literally nothing.

  • saysCharlotte_ Charlotte ******* (@saysCharlotte_) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Media. I've been on hold for over 20mins, it is about leaving a package which from your website it suggests I can only cancel from calling customer services.. Is there any web chat options to do this?
