  • woodyturts Alex Turton (@woodyturts) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia hey, it’s been slow going on broadband in GU14 since Tuesday.

  • 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) I’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?

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

    @virginmedia Yep. Wired isn’t working either. I have no broadband, no WiFi, no service. Been like this since Saturday and intermittent since Jan/Feb.

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Thanks I’m currently doing this now. So on the ‘phone once again for around an hour and been passed over and back and STILL no outcome a d still holding. Just waiting for the line to go dead as previous. When does a customer give up and just leave this shower for good?!?!?! 🤬🤬

  • ce141974 Caryn Sinclair (@ce141974) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is beyond bad!! When making a complaint because I have no internet your representative desires to shout over me! I’ve been waiting 3 days!! Shocking!!!

  • Tom38971529 Tom (@Tom38971529) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Well I would speak to a member of the team but always get the call cut short and I ask for a call back if the line goes dead. Twice yesterday ot happend Nd never got a phone call back

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

    @Firesnapper999 @virginmedia It’s really frustrating; the third technician was brilliant, replaced everything almost like a new install and it worked great for just over a week. Now the status site says everything is good whilst a call to support says it isn’t. #Grrr

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

    @virginmedia *sigh*. Been directed to this many times. Had engineers referred many times. This is a persistent issue that raises its ugly head far too frequently

  • mkn1ght Ultra Mugnus (@mkn1ght) reported from Reading, England

    @monstroso @virginmedia A problem we all have.

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

    @virginmedia Thanks. Engineer showed up, plugged in a new Hub 3, “fixed” my BB & WiFi and, 3 hours later, it’s still not working. Can I 1) file a complaint and 2) get a guarantee that this will be fixed for once and for all.

  • DoughnutDoney Doughnut Doney (@DoughnutDoney) reported from Benson, England

    @virginmedia plz stop calling me asking if I want an upgrade. Been a loyal customer for over 15 yrs and its getting annoying now. Yes my phone is due for an upgrade but only when I want it. So plz when you say Im on the 'has been contacted list' stick with that 😞

  • a3racer Chris C (@a3racer) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia is there a fix time for the Virgin TV issue in the GU21 area? It’s been down now for over 24 hours! Will my account be credited with money that I have paid for no service?

  • nenevall derrick mulvana (@nenevall) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia @OfficialRandL reading festival, the virgin media mobile network is on its knees with no internet connection across most of the site.. sort it out.

  • tashaj1984 Natasha Gorrie (@tashaj1984) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia I have posted but not sure how a forum post will help. Can you advise of your official escalation complaint process

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hey @virginmedia I forgot how awful you were when it came to anything other than collecting my direct debit. Apparently you don’t have a complaints dept, genius, and after 4 calls to you today totally around three hours, you cut two of them off during the musical interlude!

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

    @virginmedia Thanks. Done that. Multiple times. And over the last 6 months. And when I was an ntl: customer. And CableTel before that. 27 years of 56k > 350Mb and now it’s totally doing my head in. Unable to work from home properly. Boss won’t be happy!

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It about moving house. As Virgin is unavailable at the new residence and the move is only temporary I was told in two separate calls that I could ‘freeze’ my account and now it’s come to it it seems that I have to keep paying whilst not receiving any service or buy myself out!

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It’s more about how this can’t be dealt with online and spending a busy day trying to get to talk with someone who actually can help. #Disgraceful #expectedthis

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @denman79 @virginmedia The irony is that @virginmedia are more like the Pistols -‘No point in asking you’ll get no reply’ and they seem ‘Pretty Vacant’ but ‘Never mind all that…..’ can someone please take some responsibility and ownership that seems to be sadly lacking atm

  • Debbiejojessup Deborah Jessup (@Debbiejojessup) reported from Woodley, England

    Trying to cancel our Virgin Broadband what a nightmare. On hold for 90 mins still no one answers from the cancellation department. #virginmedia @virginmedia

  • dabe1971 Dabe1971 (@dabe1971) reported

    @virginmedia @ChrisBrownsell No, because it’s not working. Probably because you have a NATIONWIDE OUTAGE that you are not admitting to. Why not ?

  • EESprite Kathy #PraiseLover (@EESprite) reported

    @pilot_paul @ianmills99 @virginmedia Seems lots in the ads if you look at the comments are affected, service status I am told says normal. Clearly not!

  • gothbrxt Clio 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@gothbrxt) reported

  • IsabelS89974683 Isabel Silva (@IsabelS89974683) reported

    @virginmedia Guys internet as gone down without warning Reading

  • monkeyfunkster Lizzy (@monkeyfunkster) reported

    @virginmedia @BethanyHoyland And given the service page is also down, how does Virgin intend to compensate us for an entire day of outage? Those of us WFH still especially?

  • ChrisBrownsell Chris Brownsell (@ChrisBrownsell) reported

    @virginmedia I have been checking, and up until about 10 minutes ago the page wasn't loading at all. It is now and does say that there is an ongoing broadband service issue. Thanks.

  • VishChikkam Vishnu (@VishChikkam) reported

    @DobisMuted @virginmedia Same here, my net not working, so as the service status page
