    @virginmedia Please note @Ofcom that @virginmedia has been down across south west London for 48 hours due to a 3rd party digging up a cable. Virgin Media’s network resilience; disaster recovery; and customer comm’s are inadequate.

  • stephraim83 Steven E Whittaker (@stephraim83) reported from Chorley, England

    Dear @virginmedia I'm not one to complain, however in this instance I feel I have to. I've been paying over the odds for your service for 6 years now... with only a few issues. 3 week ago my services just stopped working, bizarrely after I'd payed for pay per view...

  • stephraim83 Steven E Whittaker (@stephraim83) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Sorry @virginmedia I don't wanna complain but your engineer has just left, my services still aren't working I rang customer services and they fobbed me off. They said said we're closing soon so ring back tomo. Not good enough.

  • prdent73 Philip Dent 🇪🇺 (@prdent73) reported from Euxton, England

    Noooo!!! The virgin media wifi is down. We might have to start talking to each other..

  • Lisa_P117 Lisa Patel (@Lisa_P117) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia starting to get sick of the rubbish service... first off my internet and now for the last week my TV doesn’t connect!

  • RealStuartCarey Stuart Carey (@RealStuartCarey) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been getting “ No Service “ since Sunday. My postcode is Pr42uj. Is there a problem in my area. 🤔

  • mashie1964 Ian F (@mashie1964) reported

    @_Pealos @virginmedia I was with Virgin media & they were awful. Lots of outages, slow speeds (took them two years to recognise my router was too old for the fibre) & crap customer service. Been with BT for years now. Far superior

  • KellyForrest75 Fatgirlslim75 (@KellyForrest75) reported

    @virginmedia Eventually I threatened to leave and was put through to tech not sure off issue is permanently resolved I was also told to use the IVR to accept a retention discount but it has disappeared so on hold again!

  • b_m1066 Bill_ (@b_m1066) reported

    @virginmedia There are no issues in the area... please can you investigate further.

  • paramedic1950 Nick Latham (@paramedic1950) reported

    @virginmedia Has my Virgin mobile carrier swamped from EE to O2, my signal is almost none existence now yet you keep telling me coverage is normal, O2 is rubbish on my area,

  • Katie88L Katie (@Katie88L) reported

    @virginmedia please can you confirm the number for the text messaging service for broadband customers. I rang the 0345 number earlier and got the option to deal with my query via text. I don't know I can trust the number texting. Please help!

  • PennyHawkeswort Penny Hawkesworth (@PennyHawkeswort) reported

    @virginmedia After 4 hours I managed a text conversation which resolved my problem until my contract ends mid July

  • twalesO . (@twalesO) reported

    @virginmedia Well no, how do I get my service back?

  • DavidP_radical David P (@DavidP_radical) reported

    @virginmedia Just experienced the most appalling effort at customer service from VM regards a problem with my router. #tryharder

  • rachel46611 Mrs Cusick (@rachel46611) reported

    @virginmedia Shocking customer service from @virginmedia. Cadent accepted responsibility - virgin should pay us the compensation and then claim it back from Cadent

  • justmejo2 Jo Evans (@justmejo2) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia that'd be fine if you hadn't offered to keep my price the same: £38 to £55 isn't what you sold me. That alongside a complaint you haven't bothered to answer. So far you are really excelling in customer service.
