    Hey @virginmedia Parents new 360 box not working and engineer not available to come out til the 27th!!!! Not good enough! 😔

  • hungoverdrawn
    Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia me19 postcode broadband down please advise

  • tolu_____
    Tolu (@tolu_____) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Virgin Media broadband down AGAIN. Service Status website & app don’t work as no internet connection 🤨 @virginmedia

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia They haven’t got through to anyone to cancel it yet?

  • bultifish
    Nick Bultitude (@bultifish) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hmm, #Skyglass is looking like a decent option if this #virginmedia outage becomes a habit.

  • Paul_Ilett

    @fingers_terry @virginmedia I hope so. I’d hate to have to cancel my subscription.

  • owensirons93
    Andrew Owen (@owensirons93) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

  • WeHateHills
    WeHateHills (@WeHateHills) reported from South Woodham Ferrers, England

    @ClassicSoulDJ @virginmedia Get @BTGroup much more reliable - have read so many stories about #Virgin having problems

  • moebius1967
    ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I'm having real trouble cancelling my Virgin media account. Cant6v chat them, can't email them now on hold for 10 minutes. Just want to end the contract give 30 days notice. New promotion only for new customers. Wtf?

  • kellydyke08
    Kelly **** (@kellydyke08) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

  • KatiePurkiss
    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!

  • adiesmith64
    ⚒Adrian Smith⚒ (@adiesmith64) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @KAYI50747133 @virginmedia Yep how you have explained it is exactly the same for me, have tried my 2nd box upstairs but the same problem!

  • rrrussboy
    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

  • GrandmasterAce1
    kali ace (@GrandmasterAce1) reported from Grays, England

    @SunveerC26 @_amansanger_ @virginmedia This is so rude, how do u guys have footage of me waiting for the internet to come back up 👀👀 booky

    @obbsie @virginmedia They are absolutely ****. Wouldn’t use them if they were free. They are dishonest and I wouldn’t trust them to run me a bath without cocking it up.

  • Mrhalfandhalf8
    Samuel Pierce (@Mrhalfandhalf8) reported

    @virginmedia hi virgin now a other problem since my Internet went down when I reported it the advisor said they should put 15 pound credit on my bill hasn't happen as it was down for that long.

  • SiGallagher
    Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported

    So @virginmedia just ignore attempts to contact them on here, meaning a spam/fraud account replies in the comments to try and catch people out. In the absence of any actual help or comms from the official account, people will be caught out. And the website is broken so there's no other way to contact (phones are jam packed)

  • billywi56359173
    billy winter (@billywi56359173) reported

    @virginmedia too busy money grabbing working through bots instead of getting real people to support your customers with actual help, fed up of trying to explain to a robot what’s going on

  • crispinlewis
    Chip Lewis (@crispinlewis) reported

    @katybye007 @virginmedia Ive been waiting 3 hours!!!!! Need to renew/cancel contract urgently. This is beyond a joke!!!!!!!

  • CherylChau1029
    Cheryl Chau (@CherylChau1029) reported

    @virginmedia 2hr phone wait! Mis-sold £78 (quoted £33.99) + 24hr outage. Fix it or I'm cancelling under 14-day cooling-off. #VirginMedia

  • mumherts
    BaaBaa (@mumherts) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on with your customer support? Tried online Bot twice and got bounced out. Been on hold with telephone for 40 mins!!!!! Can someone answer the phone 😡 #virginmedia

  • NoBotForSupport
    NoBotsForSupport (@NoBotForSupport) reported

    @mumherts @virginmedia Bot support is a very real frustrating issue today. I am a dedicated account to protest the incompetent support system. I hope we get the real human support back where it is needed. #NoBotsForSupport Tag/Mention me for repost.

  • hartdj
    Danny (@hartdj) reported

    @virginmedia I am a new customer. Today I received home start kit. I have plugged in the router and it isn't connecting to the internet. I received a text message, saying 'due to a technical fault we can't activate your kit, contact us on live chat'.... can’t get through on chat.

  • TRFCSW19
    londonswa (@TRFCSW19) reported

    @virginmedia your engineer came yesterday and lied about someone coming today to solve an issue he couldn’t fix. Now your online booking system not working. Been on hold for an hour now trying to speak to someone. Still no WiFi. Great way to treat a customer of 20years
