  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia There are no faults in my area. The issue is likely to be with the router as the 2.4ghz works consistently on other devices.

    @virginmedia Not working here in Southend on most channels

    You make mistakes in life. Going back to @virginmedia is one of my biggest. Internet is awful, can’t sign into the media service and the customer service is nonexistent. I advise you do not do it!!!

  • 8blured8 blured (@8blured8) reported

    Virgin Media!!!! Our whole street has no internet... and you report everything is fine? This is because any attempt to report faults are now directed to: "your router is connected". No more customer service... no phone or chats... #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • Adamox2020 Adam (@Adamox2020) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have but seems like it's taking forever for your team to actually fix the issue. Been off for hours around Oxfordshire

  • vodkaredbill bbb (@vodkaredbill) reported

    @virginmedia is there any point when your phone lines don’t cut off , yiur overseas call centres are like robots and I am still trying to get a issue solved . Service from virgin media is a joke

  • EverybodyLuvs_ Raymond (@EverybodyLuvs_) reported

    Was on the phone to Virgin Media trying to get an upgrade on my TiVo box to a V6 box, basically fobbed me off and did all the resets and **** to make the old box 'faster'. The technical guy says there's ways I could tell you to get this new box but I'm being recorded. 🤔 Wtf

  • MElizabethLowry Elizabeth Lowry (@MElizabethLowry) reported

    @virginmedia You have been promising a call from IT for a week now. IT ticket, mail unlock forms - all useless. The call is never made, the unlock not actioned. Each time you simply issue a new ‘window’ for the non-existent call @RebeccaSmithers #guardianconsumerchampions

  • GHSSR Holly Lincoln (@GHSSR) reported
