  • cornbunting Anita McCullough (@cornbunting) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia I’ve never had a protracted problem like this before. It’s only ever gone down a couple of times before (in over 15 years!) and then come back within 7 hours or so.

  • theotheodorou Theo Theodorou 💙 (@theotheodorou) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia my broadband is still down since this morning. Your engineers have not fixed the issue although your automated system says no issues in area. Please tell your engineers we are still down in N21. Impossible to talk to a human. Very frustrating.

  • markandall Mark O'Brien (@markandall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia 4.45 on Saturday evening you text me to move my install from Monday 9am to some day in 3 weeks time .. And now no one available to help?

  • jas9029 JAS 🇮🇳 🇬🇧 (@jas9029) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia Hey AL13DQ is down, any updates on this please? your service status page shows no problem what so ever!

  • pharmr5 Diviyesh Shah (@pharmr5) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Please tell me why I am paying for M100 broadband but lucky to get M1 some times. Never have we got more then M30. For the last 1 1/2 years it been crap

  • leosmudgersmith leo smith (@leosmudgersmith) reported from Iver, England

    @virginmedia nice service guys cut me off on wrong date should I cut off my direct debit on the wrong day shocking service

  • timlardner Timbo (@timlardner) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia your wifi has been broken at Elephant & Castle tube station for more than 2 weeks. Maybe get someone to look into it?

  • SOCYearwood Son of Carl 🇧🇧🇯🇲✊🏾💙 (@SOCYearwood) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @Hyperoptic #10YearsOfHyperoptic Virginmedia and BT couldn't provide a reliable service. Hyperoptic could.

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Pls don’t take this personally but honestly it should be in your policy that customers reps should read treads before relying!! I’ve mentioned before - I’m deaf! I CANNOT make phone calls! That’s why that stupid BOT robot is demeaning and frustrating for ppl with limitations!

  • jamescun James Cunningham (@jamescun) reported from London Colney, England

    @doismellburning @danpalmer I have a self-hosted box with DigitalOcean in London. My use case is isolation from local networks and ISP privacy (I know I’m just moving the problem, but I trust DO more than Virgin Media). For those cases, VPN providers are a haven for data collection, so no.

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia why is the connection for Wi-fi so bad in the #Mertonarea at the moment. Seems we are paying for a non service again.

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I have NO INTERNET NOW FOR OVER 36hrs!!! VM you’ve been promising to sort it!!! What a freaking useless network provider!! It’s a joke! I’m sure your competitors are laughing right now!

  • Mostons Paul Moston (@Mostons) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia So customer services are baffled by daily outages since July - you should advertise a “not a fault free service” expect months of business disruption , and forget working from home. Just fix the problem.

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia And before you asked me to ask someone else to make the phone call; I live alone so no I can’t get someone to help make the phone call!

  • Mostons Paul Moston (@Mostons) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Fastest UK broadband. That’s a maybe, but what you fail to say is that you will suffer regular outage and won’t be able to work. But that’s ok because you’ll pay £16 compensation for hours of lost production.

  • shaspi Sharon Spiteri (@shaspi) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia There’s a problem in the area apparently which is due to be fixed by 3pm. Thanks for checking.

  • LisaKathryn5 Lisa Kathryn (@LisaKathryn5) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia what is happening in AL3? Now saying 9am tomorrow before broadband repaired, this is almost a day of lost working time. Service is so bad, what is being done to make it more reliable?

  • RKWinvisibleman Robert Wright (@RKWinvisibleman) reported from Lambeth, England

    We’ve switched broadband providers from @virginmedia to @CommunityFibre and, while the service is OK, @susanrwright’s email is no longer arriving. Anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?

  • Gloriouscharlie Charlie Gallagher (@Gloriouscharlie) reported

    @virginmedia I still haven’t had confirmation I’m cancelled either. Despite three calls and an online complaint ‘chat.’ Perhaps you could assist? Reference: C-3006221787

  • Gloriouscharlie Charlie Gallagher (@Gloriouscharlie) reported

    @virginmedia You’re putting my package price up £66 per MONTH! The email telling me this also explains how new customers can have the same package for £91, but I have to pay £145. A reward for my 20 years as a customer.

  • Leeroy64Cordrey Lee Cordrey (@Leeroy64Cordrey) reported

    @virginmedia 3 hours on customer service for new deal, transferred to customer relations and they let time run out until close with out responding 4.5 hours and no new deal your are a joke. Got to do it all over again because you hold all the cards

  • Courtney0482 Sarah Courtney (@Courtney0482) reported

    @virginmedia I cant check coverage as all it tells me is to ring 789 for help! Then I spend 2 hours on phone where the phone is then disconnected. Clearly a fault I was told yesterday after 2.5 hours on chat service interruption due to system update due to O2 merge. Can someone get back to me

  • IAmWillPhoenix Whiskey Will Phoenix (@IAmWillPhoenix) reported

    @virginmedia I was told for raising the complaint and wanting to leave id have £16 taken off my bill. Nothing has come off and now just spent 20 mins on hold only to be cut off. How is your CS This Bad! ?

  • CraigH0151 Craig (@CraigH0151) reported

    @virginmedia My package goes up next month. I’ve asked to cancel the contract in the WhatsApp chat but no one has confirmed the cancellation

  • JayneCorbett63 Jayne Corbett (@JayneCorbett63) reported

    @virginmedia Okay 30 minutes to get through to customer service because no TV, internet etc and told no engineer until Monday. Can’t remember password so asked for bank sort code. Really. Bank details?
