Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England‘ere, @VirginMedia, it’s been a full month now of totally unreliable service at my house; 5 engineers later, with the last call to 0345 454 111 on Friday saying you KNOW there’s a problem and it WILL be fixed in 24 hours. I called bullshit. I was right. Sort this out!!!
-
Daniel Bonilla (@danbon1973) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia how do I check my virgin status if the status page doesn't work? Is there an outage in GU21 area?
-
Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia I had my phone on me all day and didn’t have any missed call message. I have called numerous times and no progress. I understand you also can’t help me.
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, EnglandDear @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?
-
John Neilson (@flyingjok) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia Worst part of it @virginmedia is the way your customer service team speaks to customers. Quite appalling and in my experience always approached on basis that the customer is wrong. It consistently bad - to be told you don’t send texts when I clearly had two texts quite insulting!
-
Marta (@vikingmarta89) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia why since Monday is so bad signal in Reading West ? I’m not able to work !

-
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. Don’t see how my kit in the house can one minute have speeds on +300Mb to next to nothing?
-
Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, EnglandAnother day of bad experience with @virginmedia broadband service in RG6 area. Buffering on streaming service, no video calls possible on Skype and WhatsApp. Seriously thinking of switching to @bt_uk
-
Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England@mattlintott @NetXL_dot_com Nice 👍🏻 got gig1 from @virginmedia but the upload is awful only 50mbit. Hope it gets increased to at least 100mbit soon.
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!

Daniel Sherlock (@mcsherlocks) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Internet down at the moment in Woking also yesterday. Checked with my neighbours also down so is system wide
-
CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@virginmedia Yes I have on multiple occasions, I have just been taking to engineer who running the 30 day test, while taking to him I had 3 lost connection issues. Your employees are trying say that I will have to pay to leave my contract, @Ofcom state, I can leave without penalty
-
Inmita La **** Peora de Offo (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia Internet is not working properly in my pc and your virgin app does not work either. It has been like that since last night.
-
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!
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, EnglandTook 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.
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia I don't know. You never answer the phone when I call you.

gareth moore (@gareth5274) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia any chance of any help, been phoning since Friday and still getting nowhere. Ta.
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, EnglandReally hard to support brand @virginmedia and recommend them to anyone for Broadband. They may be the only competitor to BT but do you have to compete for last place?

-
Bilgin Art (@art_bilgin) reported@ virgin #virginbroadband @VirginAtlantic Virgin media broadband 4 days without broadband from crappy Virgin. Mast down, so it takes 4 flipping days to fix it yet everything internet, business, security and entertainment is down
-
the_beeb_23 (@thebeeb_23) reported@virginmedia Oh, I can think you should rest easy in bed knowing that this will never happen. I on the other hand have to spend every moment of every day telling people about what a bunch of front b0ttoms your organisation is and how 5hitty sticks should be deployed to keep away from you
-
Rhys (@vickdawg92) reported@virginmedia when is this wifi issue going to be sorted ******* **** show from you as a company 10 days at least now which started as a global issue to a local issue to a software issue to a problem with a box near me which still hasn't been sorted dates keep getting pushed back
-
Emma Spurdle (@EmmaSpurdle) reported@virginmedia Yes but it’s no help if it keeps changing, this is the third estimated time fix it’s shown since Thursday
-
Ana Atkinson (@Ana1Atkinson) reported@virginmedia These problems have been on & off since Thursday. Will we get compensated & will Virgin issue a statement to their customers to let us know what is going on? It seems like you have serious problems & just keep saying it will be fixed in 24 hrs. I have no landline, tv or internet
-
David Gerrish (@DavidGerrish) reportedMisleading email @virginmedia saying I can watch Champions League Final for free. Seems I can’t. Now my son is in tears and he thinks I’m a terrible Dad.
-
AJG (@gozzand) reported@OliverGMcManus @virginmedia surely as theyre not actually providing you the service contracted you should be able to cancel without penalty?
-
Robert Cashin (@robert_cashin) reported@virginmedia Service desk closed for the evening, so logging this here. Broadband and television down in B24 8RB. TV shows a code CS2004. WiFi hub flashing red and TV box flashing a symbol with two arrows. Have rebooted WiFi, but this has made no difference.
