  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    Broadband service improved, good speed and customer service follow-up. Thank you @virginmedia much improved service.

  • melvinabrose millie p RN RHV QN (@melvinabrose) reported from High Wycombe, England

    Virgin media just rubbish. Just so disappointed in a service that for the past 2 months has been rubbish. Worked all over the house and even in the garden for all the time we have been customers but now only working on one side of the house and not upstairs.

  • mathers1981 Stephen Marshall (@mathers1981) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke of a service. Try and leave them as they are having your pants down each month and it’s like trying to escape Alcatraz. Awful firm

  • spice1971 Graeme Spice (@spice1971) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia Maybe you can pass on the fact 2 calls to two separate call centres (first was India, second Scotland) both dropped mid call. Assuming it wasn’t the operators maybe there is an issue. Didn’t happen to Philpines on third call. Annoying when hold times are long

  • KernowPrincess Lynn Gower (@KernowPrincess) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet appears to be up and down for RG30 2QT

  • woodsa164 Alex George (@woodsa164) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia The worst Broadband provider 😡 The worst customer service 😡

  • mikeyh817 Mike (@mikeyh817) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia According to your fault page there’s nothing wrong yet when you call they agree there’s a problem. Again poor service from yourselves when your departments can’t agree!!!

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia Sorry to say that I contacted your online chat, but they offered no significant update other than 9th Sept for a fix and no offer of compensation as I am not experiencing a total loss of service. Not happy at all.

  • mikeyh817 Mike (@mikeyh817) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia putting on such excellent service again 😡😡😡😡 broadband been down now for over three hours. You clowns really are useless. Really wish we’d left you when we had the chance 😡😡😡😡😡

  • basicbloke2012 Basic Bloke (@basicbloke2012) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia I did this last week and again twice this week All says there is an issue and I need to talk to someone

  • gb20man Grant Baartman (@gb20man) reported from Bracknell, England

    Intermittent network service from @virginmedia again, seems I need to use my reliable personal hotspot from @VodafoneUK - at least I have a fallback plan.

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    The @virginmedia amazing service continues, pay £13.99 for a film that you cannot watch due to technical error 🙄 look online, seems common & responses unhelpful, hurry up @SkyUK & get faster broadband here so I can switch!

  • RJHOTCHEF Ryan Wilson (@RJHOTCHEF) reported from Fleet, England

    @AlyInASpin @virginmedia Weird we are having the same problem #lag , @virginmedia whats the problem please. Very annoying now

  • MartinJerrard Martin Jerrard (@MartinJerrard) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia No as I am about to drive to work when I should be working from home as I do each Friday and Monday except poor service is preventing me doing do. I will make a formal complaint tonight as this is the second time this week.

  • MartinJerrard Martin Jerrard (@MartinJerrard) reported from Farnborough, England

    @dinger3805 @virginmedia It's become a bit of a joke which is not funny anymore as I have lost 2 days pay now because of this given the price we pay. Appualing service at the moment.

  • daddysdahmer Soph (@daddysdahmer) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet keeps dropping out in RG30 and then completely went. No issues showing on your site. Tried restarting router but still no internet!!!

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    Getting a bit fed up of @virginmedia marketing calls that just hang up when I indicate I’m not interested - not even giving me the chance to opt out - #GDPR rule breaking....

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I made a GDPR complaint to you at the time of writing that tweet it was acknowledged, my preferences were updated (apparently) and yet I STILL get calls. Not a word of an apology in that letter though. Didn’t think anything would tempt me back to Sky..

  • dionne_angus Dionne Angus (@dionne_angus) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia trying to watch a film on Netflix only for my tv to keep flashing up wired LAN cable is disconnected then wired network is connected what is going on I pay for virgin and Netflix and getting fed up

  • LouiseBrogan3 Louise (@LouiseBrogan3) reported

    @virginmedia is there a tv problem? Broadband/WiFi ok but online tv won’t work.

  • husain_akhtar Husain Akhtar (@husain_akhtar) reported

    @virginmedia @TyrellLadyo .no TV since 11am in my area - received no alert message/update by Virginmedia, a very high-charging service provider - disgusting!

  • Flossy_999 Lisa (@Flossy_999) reported

    @virginmedia So I hope we will all be getting some sort of refund from our bill for the lack of service...as you wouldn't go into a restaurant order and pay for food for the restaurant to say they couldn't provide your food...🤔

  • 59snoopy manpreet johar (@59snoopy) reported

    @virginmedia This is now becoming ridiculous, we have been without TV all day and cannot log in to our account to make a complaint, receive updates or gather any useful information 🤬🤬🤬

  • TheBionicGolfer Richard White (@TheBionicGolfer) reported

    @virginmedia Is this VM “Customer Service”? There is no useful information posted here on Twitter, your last Facebook site post was 8th June, and your 150 Customer Service phone number, for hours, says “too busy, please phone later” We are CUSTOMERS, PLEASE COMMUNICATE WITH US!!

  • pamela_jk Pamela Keenan (@pamela_jk) reported

    Tell that prick Branson to get this sorted for the fitba or his stupid rocket is getting shoved up his arse #virginmedia

  • steer266 Glenn (@steer266) reported

    Virgin Media crashes leaving thousands unable to access TV services They are the worst provider in the UK. They are expensive an utterly inaccessible to people making enquiries or complaints. They were dreadful a year ago. They're 100 times worse today.

  • KrazyWabb1t KrazyWabb1t (@KrazyWabb1t) reported

    @virginmedia @MarkHen66172350 Paying a bill for a service we dont really get...why dont you update with any progress? at least tell us is gonna take 5 days to fix...so we know what we up to
