  • Mike4Eastleigh Mike Thornton (@Mike4Eastleigh) reported from Fair Oak, England

    @virginmedia So absolutely no help from Virgin Media. My broadband is down. I go on line and it says there are no issues in SO50 6BP. I click on fox my broad band and of course it can’t because I have NO broadband!

  • RobNeedhamFR Rob N (@RobNeedhamFR) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia No telephone service in PO9 very poor Virgin Media on a day people want to call their families!

  • sam_joy Sam Joy 🇺🇦🇬🇧 (@sam_joy) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia I'm no longer with VM and haven't been for about 2 years. Won't have a current email address to be able to sign in to my old account.

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Another text from @virginmedia ‘great news, your service has been restored’. IT HAS NOT BEEN RESTORED, no change.

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    You know @btsport, it would be nice to watch the match in UHD, if only the UHD channel wasn't so jittery. 🤦 Whoever's problem it is, whether it's @btsport or @virginmedia, sort it out!!! #RANLIV #ChampionsLeague

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia an explanation would be good. To be left Monday 30th, Tue 31st with no communication by you is not good enough. I need reassurance by your company that you know how to fix this! The customer shouldn’t have to be chasing the vendor - not good service, Virgin Media.

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia DAY 3 WITHOUT SERVICE (Broadband, Phone and Television): I’ve received a text to say the technician who was to visit this morning has been cancelled😳 Received another text that service should be back at 4pm - it has taken Virgin 3 days to detect issues in my area??

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Oh for God’s sake, @virginmedia , I’ve already done this 3 times, the latest time last night with your technical support, the same person that arranged for a technician to come this morning, then cancelled because you erroneously believe the breakdown is resolved.

  • BA5H3R27 BASH (@BA5H3R27) reported from Gosport, England

    Jesus your internet is **** @virginmedia on off on off on off reset it …. Takes 5 mins to boot on…. On off on off. We certainly won’t be renewing with you.

  • RobNeedhamFR Rob N (@RobNeedhamFR) reported from Havant, England

    @virginmedia seems your network has issues again as pages are not loading or slow to load in PO9 again. Yes I have turned my STB on and off again!

  • enkeli85 Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Disconnect from @virginmedia on 28 Feb. Still get charged a month bill on 1 Mar & been told I'll both need to wait 45 days for my refund & that it will be credited the same day. Great help for budgeting & doesn't help that customer service chat couldn't understand the issue 🙄

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    So there's me hoping to watch the #SingaporeGP in full before work then it gets delayed by an hour. **** sake. Thank God for the @virginmedia app. (Dear god I hate working late shifts with a passion) #F1

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Your lack of communication has and still is horrific. And i am fast losing confidence in @virginmedia - how can i plan a working day while having to chase the Supplier of my comms equipment. Issue was to be fixed at 8am, but now … who knows!😡

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Oh it's broadband price hike time again!! You can almost guarantee @virginmedia will try and increase the broadband prices by more than the CPI figures, then drop it back down as soon as you phone up and mention the word "Sky" EVERY. BLOODY. TIME. #MartinLewis

  • DIZZYDJC Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    My internet is painfully slow tonight. Checked my router and it's not that, it's the internet itself. What is going on @virginmedia ? Your status says no faults but I can assure you there is. I am paying for 1GB bb and so far only reaching speeds of about 2.25 mb- explain??

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan - Brand building PR for B2B (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia what is happening in postcode PO5 - no internet since yesterday mid day and your help messages don’t provide a solution. How many times are i going to read ‘try again in 5 hours’ ??!!

  • DIZZYDJC Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • Recklessjai124 Just_Jai (@Recklessjai124) reported

    @virginmedia down yet again. It’s insane how many times they go down and then say they’re sorry only for it to keep constantly happening. Disgusting that we pay so much for it to just never work. Sort it out man

  • BtheBhoy88 BtheBhoy88 (@BtheBhoy88) reported

    @virginmedia I want to know why it was disconnected in the 1st place? your colleague said there was no issues..I want my final bill discounted before I leave next Saturday

  • wea5el83 Rob (@wea5el83) reported

    Posting my usual msg but using data today because, guess what?!, @virginmedia internet is not working! Another day, another shocking performance from @virginmedia. I cannot implore you enough to avoid this company

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down in multiple homes on my street. I was told by your support you don't monitor your endpoints? Shocking if true!

  • just_my_luck Maria Georgieva (@just_my_luck) reported

    @virginmedia I am moving home and 2 of your agents assured me that the broadband won't be switched off before 5 pm on disconnection day. It was actually switched off at midnight on the previous day? I'll be raising a complaint against you for misrepresentation and loss of income

  • saschxd Sash 🙋🏼 (@saschxd) reported

    If I could rate @virginmedia mobile teams customer service lower than 0 I would! Going on 3 weeks with no phone no answers and countless call backs promised with no follow through! DO NOT USE!

  • London_Tash London_Tash (@London_Tash) reported

    @virginmedia We have had intermittent internet connection for one week now. Unable to work efficiently at home. No support, No help, yet,extortionate pricing! 🧐💩

  • BRPreston_ Ben (@BRPreston_) reported

    @virginmedia I recently upgraded my contract on my phone, and now I can't make calls anymore. Getting "not registered on network" when I try to call anyone, even customer care. Any help with this?

  • JDeBurca jeandeburca (@JDeBurca) reported

    @virginmedia The estimated time to fix it keep changing. It will be 24hrs out! That's ridiculous.

  • DonBaldini Graham Ball (@DonBaldini) reported

    If there's one thing I don't want to happen it's for @CBeebiesHQ to be down on @virginmedia on a school morning. Urgh!
