  • Kev_Williams Kev Williams (@Kev_Williams) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia ok, what’s happening with the outage. Nothing on yr website or app. Cannot work from home, losing money.

  • jennyjanepalmer Jenny Palmer (@jennyjanepalmer) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Are you joking @virginmedia broadband down again, this is at least the 3rd time in a few weeks.. and started before everyone started working at home..

  • AFCBCarl carl mieleszko (@AFCBCarl) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @benedictsf @virginmedia @skytv @BT That’s good but I have had nothing but issues with sky broadband in the past! Touch wood apart from today I haven’t had any issues with BT for 18months

  • AFCBCarl carl mieleszko (@AFCBCarl) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia I don’t think you understand do you!! not just surrounding areas, this is misinformation and is causing your customers 30miles away from Southampton to waste time checking with work it support, windows it support, and pissing about with their routers because your not honest

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia @ceasuri_rele This is happening too often now. After the recent outage debacle this is simply not acceptable. Please confirm that all customers in the affected areas will be receiving financial compensation.

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Whether broadband is a utility or not is a point of view. From my perspective, it’s a utility. I accept no supplier can guarantee service. VM may be just be on an unlucky streak. Your service is presently not something I trust - based on current experience.

  • GordonFong Gordon Fong (🍸🦐🦀🥋) (@GordonFong) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @lisaculling @virginmedia They’ve broken one big f-off sized cable and are installing another one. Not a small job but even then I ended up with a leaking ducting by then yesterday.

  • AFCBCarl carl mieleszko (@AFCBCarl) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia internet down since 23:30 last night in Bournemouth still not up and running what kind of organisation are you, you lose your trains, lose your cola, now losing the plot! @skytv & @BT from now on.

  • Natalie05490147 Natalie Griffiths (@Natalie05490147) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I’m disappointed in the lack of service! I’m a vulnerable customer and yet they don’t seem to be bothered by this fact! I get promised call backs and they never happen... I’m left with no facilities

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Right this second, no. But it’s becoming clear that I cannot rely upon the service. It really is a utility. My water, gas & electricity all seem to run smoothly but not my broadband service. It is very frustrating.

  • mattjlawrence Matt Lawrence 📣 (@mattjlawrence) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Please @virginmedia learn from the banks and offer your customers the option to pause services or waive cancellation charges for people losing their jobs. £80 to take TV off my plan after 15 years as a customer is not helpful

  • LaurenSTompkins Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Hey @virginmedia I have an issue with my account all to do with a new instal. Please can I talk it through with you to try and resolve it.

  • chefmike56 Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I work online and am really angry I have been unable to run my business so far today .. I entrust my working life to your firm and it's worse than crap

  • LaurenSTompkins Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    thanks @virginmedia I don’t have a working service as you say I have a bill to pay. According to the records next bill payment is due 04/05 but because your new installation charges are so high I’ve gone over the credit limit.

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia You didn’t mention the refund that Virgin Media clients should be getting. Reputational damage is one thing, but unless these repeated service outages cost your shareholders money, things won’t improve.

  • Natalie05490147 Natalie Griffiths (@Natalie05490147) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I’m awaiting a call back from a manager to confirm from the new customer team that he can get a quick start pack out to me ASAP due to my unique circumstances. The manager John said he or a colleague would call me by Saturday. It’s now Thursday and I’ve heard nothing!

  • GordonFong 5G.ordon Fong (🍸🦐🦀🥋) (@GordonFong) reported from Bournemouth, England

    I actually spoke to the #virginmedia engineer who had to fix the fibres in Southampton the other week. A utilities company had cut through them down by the roundabout at the end of the M271 he said. Up all day doing that of which was done by another company!

  • chefmike56 Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia In thse hard times is virgin media aware that so many people not happy could so easily join somewhere else eventually making your company go bust . The service is dire

  • Sharpy_G Sharpy (@Sharpy_G) reported

    @virginmedia Honestly this says very little for long standing existing customers and cashing in on the pandemic #WorkFromHome situation by also instigating broadband price hikes for them is pretty poor #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • vforvelvetta V (@vforvelvetta) reported

    @virginmedia We've checked the service link (doesn't show any issues) + contacted support but haven't heard back about anything specific in the area. No idea what could be wrong, but it's affecting the whole household.

  • ZarahFrostt Frosty Knickers (@ZarahFrostt) reported

    @virginmedia Yes tried that and still not working. This has been a common occurrence since we have been with virgin media. It's so frustrating too as it interrupts a lot of important stuff

  • Egborne1 Egborne (@Egborne1) reported

    @virginmedia now I've just spoken to a woman who had the worst quality line ever who has asked the same questions as the other woman and has now put me on hold, not heard anything for 5 minutes

  • jeffdance1 . (@jeffdance1) reported

    @virginmedia I didn't have a package change. I've still got the same package. My contract was for £44 a month and I've got a rolling £9 managers voucher to bring my bill down to £35. I changed address and paid the £35 fee separately

  • 1tappleby Thomas Appleby (@1tappleby) reported

    @virginmedia Experiencing serious broadband performance issue for the past 11 days. 2 phone calls, 1 complaint, 3 hours wasted on the phone and zero progress. I have all the facts I need to cancel and claim money back unless someone from @virginmedia cares enough to contact me?

  • ClareBullock Clare Bullock (@ClareBullock) reported

    @virginmedia Really poor customer service yet again. I have been passed round 5 departments, no help at all and after 2 hours waiting on the phone I have now been cut off. Please could a customer service manager call me. #CustomerService #shambles #Unacceptable

  • Emma_Palmee Emma_palmee (@Emma_Palmee) reported

    @virginmedia And here we go again. No internet no phone no tv. When will this be back SO16? I'm getting sick and tired of this. Do we get at least a month free as this is your issue!!!!!!

  • HolliexSage Hollie Oconnell (@HolliexSage) reported

    @virginmedia been trying to get online support for over a week via live chat without any luck, how can we get support?

  • semmysonic Craig (@semmysonic) reported

    @virginmedia why does your app never connect to the hub. Worked to set it up but now can't find it!
