    @virginmedia No broadband in GU46 7RR... is this part of the outage as have seen others in the area with issues but your website says no issues reported?

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

    @virginmedia All fine now - but TBH we're probably going to cancel. Our contract is up its going up from £70 to £85/month. To sign a new deal is a £82. Your offer to new customers is £45. I can't be bothered with this hassle every few months so am looking at sky. Thanks for checking though 👍

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia The only detail I’ve had is as follows and it’s hardly detailed. Please can someone tell me what is the issue and where, with timescales. “Hi, it's Virgin Media here. The installation is kept on hold due to construction issue.”

  • rohaaminho Najm Khan (@rohaaminho) reported from Farnborough, England

    Had the worst internet day ever. Never use Utility Warehouse or whoever own the line around here which is @virginmedia

  • AlistairNCox Al (@AlistairNCox) reported from Crowmarsh Gifford, England

    @virginmedia do you know how much longer the internet will be down in OX10 8 ??

  • kirsten_willis Kirsten Willis BEM (@kirsten_willis) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what is so difficult about customer service these days? Spent the last 4 days going through the repetitive process of checking out WiFi connection, eventually got a number to call TL get cut off after a 30 min wait! Not impressed!

  • TaylaWelch Tayla Welch (@TaylaWelch) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Internet is down... @virginmedia what’s going on 😓

  • c_s_skinner ©️🅰️®️🅾️ Lℹ️N📧 (@c_s_skinner) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia your WiFi box is rubbish, we keep loosing signal. Dreadful service. Do not recommend 😡

  • fostersbarbie Ang Gray (@fostersbarbie) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia tv,internet down for last 2 hours... hub flashing 2 green arrows.., help?!

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called, but that provided no help. I was told I’d get a callback from a team closer to the issue in 24 hours - which has since passed. Honestly, not a good start and I’ve not got service yet!

  • HollySquirrel Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia My husband has been unable to contact anyone at customer service. It seems our router has an intermittent fault. Please advise ASAP. My husband is a key worker (electricity generation), having a stable internet connection, is essential. 2/2

  • lucy_spalton Lucy Spalton (@lucy_spalton) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia Has everything gone down in Fleet? GU51

  • djmessyxjessy Jessica Boshier (@djmessyxjessy) reported from Reading, England

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I have has my your chat open for 24 hours, sent a text message 36 hours ago and no response to either. As a new customer, with a query, this is not a good start.

  • HaiderAlRekabi Haider Al-Rekabi (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Reading, England

  • GamerJamesFM GamerJamesFM (@GamerJamesFM) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia hi, I am trying to access my router settings page but it isn't loading. Any idea what the issue is??

  • rockyrobin1982 Robin Conway (@rockyrobin1982) reported from Bracknell, England

    Hey @itv and @virginmedia. Could you please highlight the #WeMakeEvents campaign along with your footage and advertising of V festival coverage? As without support there won’t be another one to broadcast. #lightinred

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Never got my 5 GB SIM card as stated in my contract. Been waiting for over a month and never got it! Impossible to get through customer services to speak to a human...

  • djmessyxjessy Jessica Boshier (@djmessyxjessy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia why do you keep hanging up on your help line thatwere on hold for, for 30 minutes a time. Answer and help

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

  • Corky70704558 Corky (@Corky70704558) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on your online chat for over 4 hours now trying to cancel my broadband contract. I have just been passed from pillar to post and still waiting........

  • mattyross_uk Matty Ross (@mattyross_uk) reported

    @virginmedia My flatmate account holder gets advised to do this every time. Has never helped. Can you please check if there is any reports in N6 area of works going on? The router/cables/channels have all been tested and replaced etc recently so I can guarantee its not the kit

  • benscollectable Benscollectables (@benscollectable) reported

    @virginmedia But again that’s me … the person paying you , doing all the chasing about to fix this … this is not on … all I want is a manager to call me and let me cancel.

  • Pablo8485 paul flett (@Pablo8485) reported

    @virginmedia The issue here is 2fold, 1stly how long will the response take to the complaint I made via email? (28 days potentially). You guys seem more comfortable losing me to BT than finding a way to compensate me for the error that virgin made when routing your internet to my house.

  • CharlieHodgins CMH (@CharlieHodgins) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not good enough. I’m not able to work. This was happening with my previous hub also. £75 a month for a service that hasn’t been working properly for over a month. I won’t be a returning customer once my contract is over

  • CharlieHodgins CMH (@CharlieHodgins) reported

    Another @virginmedia WiFi outage. Just a week after getting a new hub. Don’t worry though. It’s estimated to be fixed at 9:30 pm. Pathetic

  • benscollectable Benscollectables (@benscollectable) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve explained it to them about the repeated issues and having to reset my hub at least 16 times this month alone and I’ve been told I still have to pay £250 as I’ve only had one engineering visit instead of 3 …. During a Pandemic 😷

  • DetrimentKoi NMD DetrimentKoi™ (@DetrimentKoi) reported

    @virginmedia about an hour or so ago and was told it takes 30 days to look into a cab issue , after 3 engineers sent was told it was a cab issue but explaining that to them has been a nightmare cause they dont listen

  • Essieburton Estelle Burton (@Essieburton) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Thanks 2 lady I got throu to but not by using your options main menu. Refund authorised & cheque being sent. Hope it arrives after agreeing resolution. No final account bill attached to agree resolution refund :(

  • mattyross_uk Matty Ross (@mattyross_uk) reported
