    @virginmedia We managed to get through to your team on the phone yesterday and they said they will call us back. It started working again yesterday evening but it’s an on and off problem we have had for weeks so needs looking into properly which I hope will happen soon.

    @virginmedia don’t worry about supplying a service that I can use to work from home, I’d much rather leave the house in a pandemic to access stable broadband...!!!

    @virginmedia I upgraded to the Ultimate Oomph package in Jan but still waiting for the order to be completed. I’ve contacted customer services on numerous times but no success, I’ve also raised a complaint. How do I actually get some help to complete the order?

    @virginmedia is there a bandwidth issue in the network? I’m in Fleet, Hampshire #patchy #slow

  • EmsAlice Ems ☾ (@EmsAlice) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia It’s now been more than 48 hours and once again our catch up services and virgin media store is down and unavailable ... this time with no known local issue. What am I meant to do?

  • gregemmerson_ Greg Emmerson (@gregemmerson_) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Completed the tests with the app, one room poor coverage

  • paulineayres PaulineAyres-S/W (@paulineayres) reported from Blackwater, England

    @virginmedia Have to wait until Monday until an engineer can come out to fix whatever the problem is, I have never ever had a good connection, made many complaints but this is the worse ever. Intermittence connections causing me to need another @SlimmingWorld consultant to cover my groups 💔

  • KathyMck1962 Kathy mckenry (@KathyMck1962) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia can you advise how much longer our internet will be down in the Tilehurst Reading area had no internet since 8pm yesterday? ?

  • DawnFabbricatti Dawn Fabbricatti🇿🇦🇮🇹 (@DawnFabbricatti) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia You LITERALLY cannot be serious right now? Is this how you believe my issue will be solved? And yes, in the last 19 days I have rebooted twice.

  • BobBeveridge1 Bob Beveridge (@BobBeveridge1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia When your expensive fibre broadband crashes in the middle of an online meeting with an MP this is bloody frustrating and unacceptable. Your service is often unreliable in the middle of the day. Can it be fixed or do I need another provider as backup?

    Truly bad Virgin Media services@virginmedia @blueyonder both Broadband & TV down yesterday. no engineer until Saturday 4pm-7pm! Feel sorry for frontline peeps as they said they’re getting hammered by customers! Do not fall for their promotions!

  • J_C_Hall James Charles Hall (@J_C_Hall) reported

    @virginmedia just awful customer service from you trying to get my broadband installed. Plus, trying to actually speak to someone is a nightmare, I wish I'd never bothered with your business and gone with BT. #disgrace #customerservice #fail

  • EmmaWilton15 Emma Wilton (@EmmaWilton15) reported

    @virginmedia I had a contract opened in November but cancelled it and the cancellation hasn’t gone through so I was charged and nobody can help me and now they’re saying I owe £100+ even though I’ve got proof😢

  • JnrTuttle Harry_Tuttle_jnr (@JnrTuttle) reported

    @sir_frankuk @virginmedia I've had virgin for years and no real problems so I expect they're all as bad as each other and it just comes down to luck

  • mulla_safwaan Safwaan Mulla (@mulla_safwaan) reported

    @sulemotala @virginmedia @BT fr man stupid virgins

  • SLindoYnwa SLindoYnwa (@SLindoYnwa) reported

    I thought @virginmedia on the phones where the worst until I have had to deal with passport office the past few months literally must just employ any random idiot @GOVUK

  • ps3samson Ian Hickson (@ps3samson) reported

    @virginmedia It is NOT MY CABLES!! It's the weak signal coming into the house, we will try to rebook a engineer but I think it is a outside issue because we would have had signal problems beforehand. My postcode is DN16 1UF if you want to see if it is an "outside" issue.

  • kevin_webb184 kevin webb (@kevin_webb184) reported

    @virginmedia it wiuld be great if you actually answered with 45 minutes... my days off are filled with calling you to try and get you to provide a service i pay you for @virginmedia

    @virginmedia good morning can you tell me if the services in area 30 are just off for today please. My auntie is disabled and relies on her telephone for any issues she may have throughout the day.
