    @virginmedia No effort is made to rectify the problem they just want to change to VOIP with no regard to a customer who spends over £1200 a bear for all devices, I wonder what offcom would think

  • jrseloto
    Francisco Soler (Jr) (@jrseloto) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia 11 May - which of course i will cancel today as I’ve had enough of this. too much stress and no TV or internet for 30 days

  • markselondon

    @virginmedia Broadband gone down again in SE3 8HT area, I’ve reset the hub 3times and still no Wi-Fi or broadband. I’m using data on my phone again.

  • gendal
    Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.

    @ttastev @virginmedia Website is down also I can’t get anyone from virgin media, looks like whole of U.K. is down.

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia How long is due course? I’ve already spent hours on this issue with no resolution. I started this chat conversation on Wednesday 1st February. Wouldn’t you agree the customer service from Virgin is woeful?

  • ZJM_331
    CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

  • drewerydyke
    Drewery **** (@drewerydyke) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia No, no further info save for 151’s automated voice saying there are ‘intermittent’ issues. For how long or what or impact - no info.

  • mariesnotcool
    Mariachiara (@mariesnotcool) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia we’ve had no service in EC1V London, since our Wi-Fi was installed last month. We’ve tried to call countless time and we keep being told about “area issues” that would be solved the day after but never do. This is just unacceptable behaviour!

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Please as I have been paying for service

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

  • kevinri00714924
    kevin richardson (@kevinri00714924) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Will this issue be resolved today

  • Barchetta66
    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @Whiskey_Mick @virginmedia We’ve just had the same experience - waited 8 days. Not a word from them. Not a human spoken to. If I had another choice I’d drop them. 0/10 for customer service.

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  • andy_s_battle
    Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia Just spouting corporate line does not improve the situation. No advanced notice, no resolution to problem, appointment missed, but if I am not here for a visit I am fined. This is very one sided for a service that has other companies wanting the business

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, yes I did. But still no service before I left home. Online service checker just said problems with TV & Broadband in my postcode area. Currently not at home, but will check upon my return.

  • 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!

  • AnnieCaird
    Annie Caird 🌻 (@AnnieCaird) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

    @O2 It's not tv issues I have an issue with it's not being able to use rewards or just login with a o2 account as I keep being asked to link a virgin media account as previously I was just able to use my phone number which is an o2 one

  • glenn_coin
    Glenn Edwards ⚽️🥊🦮 🇬🇧 (@glenn_coin) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia It’s the only option I have that doesn’t use Openreach lines, which are crap. They were terrible when they were NTL as well, seems like nothing has changed.

  • KathyMi25429227
    Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported

    @virginmedia Paying a premium for a poor service...why is it impossible to actually speak to anyone?? Wait time unacceptable

  • alfie_beachlife
    Alfie (@alfie_beachlife) reported

    @Benleo @ChrisSleven @virginmedia Lured away from EE by Sky on BB + mobile package. The mobile service is next useless and despite upgrading to the highest Sky BB speed available it’s still not as good as EE plus they did the price hike wrapped up in some BS marketing about how wonderful they are. Back to EE asap

  • grayn59
    Nicky Gray (@grayn59) reported

    @virginmedia why is my broadband off and why does this repeatedly happen? Your broadband service checker also does not currently work.

  • Bowtomephil
    Phil (@Bowtomephil) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Some are great some are not. I had an issue told them what I thought it was as it happened before. One guy said its not that, came three times, changed modems, cables connectors etc. I told them don't send him , they sent a new guy listened to what I said, fixed what I said.

  • Benleo
    Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported

    Congrats to @virginmedia for being perhaps the WORST company I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with in Britain. Three engineer visits, five plus calls to Indian call centres, and still you can’t activate the TV contract you upsold me when I simply called to get my connection back. Awful, awful business model.

  • GrzeLow
    Grze ski (@GrzeLow) reported

    @virginmedia @DrewSheridan1 Are you lot out of your minds? Another outage/shutdown on N11 1BA? WILL THERE EVER BE A MONTH WHERE THE SERVICE RUNS SMOOTHLY??? You’re the worst internet provider I’ve ever had, and I’ve had plenty!

    @tracy_s1 @virginmedia yes same, says "intermittent signal" issue
