  • movenicely movenicely (@movenicely) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia the worse customer service I’ve had in a long time. An absolute racket- tv, internet, billing & customer service: all woeful - they allow themselves 28 days to respond to a query & the phone lines are inaccessible - you couldn’t make it up #avoidvirginmedia #crooks

  • diddywatts Chris Watts (@diddywatts) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia It was changed by your team trying to compete with sky but could not match the like for like with sky so asked to be left as was till my notice period was up. Virgin have made this a very difficult transition and treated a loyal customer with utter contempt

  • mandysatwit mandy jones (@mandysatwit) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia On hold 15 mins so far because I want to reduce my package, do you ever answer these calls or do I just cancel direct debit 😡

  • mickthenorth Michael North (@mickthenorth) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your message and offer to go on this web chat. Just tried and your closed, so this doesn’t help either!! My friend who lives with us was the reason for getting Sky sports and his team Spurs are on BT sports and he can’t watch it!!

  • manwithfishhead Manwithfishhead (@manwithfishhead) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia No I haven't. Even the service status page is down on the website. :( the phone lines tell me you are working on it, which is fabby but would be good to know what the issue is and how serious I suppose. Thanks for coming back to me so quickly though. :)

  • IanAShepherd Ian Shepherd (@IanAShepherd) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    So @virginmedia seems to have gone down across the whole country simultaneously. Will be interesting to see what the root cause is.

  • SyedaOxford Syeda Butterworth (@SyedaOxford) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @jashley586 @virginmedia Thanks just switched to this channel 🙂 can't check service status on virgin website as that appears broke too 😮🙁

  • mickthenorth Michael North (@mickthenorth) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just got home from work, after leaving home at 7.20 this morning so destined never to have the problem solved. Perhaps I should cancel my direct debit, that way I will have contact in no time!

    @virginmedia Any idea when the broadband issue for ox145 will be fixed. When I ring 150 I get no actual update, just that you are working on it. I work from home and rely on this. Ta. :)

  • manwithfishhead Manwithfishhead (@manwithfishhead) reported from Abingdon, England

  • Snappxrz_ Ant (@Snappxrz_) reported

    My virgin media been down and **** for 2 days. PAIN

  • tinyhaz Gary Harrison (@tinyhaz) reported

    @virginmedia So there is a downstream congestion issue that only impacts my whole street at 8pm every night. Virgin have been working since 26th March apparently and they cannot tell me how long it will take to fix and your website says there are no issues in my area. Utter incompetence.

  • Captain_Hummus Marco Holness (@Captain_Hummus) reported

    @virginmedia Completed the test by resetting the router and nothing has changed! Still have high download and ZERO upload. Can someone from your team just admit there is an issue that’s not to do with our routers? Various users on Twitter are reporting the same thing. When will this be fixed?

  • Jenpen21 Jenny May (@Jenpen21) reported

    @virginmedia FFS! What is going on today! Every 30 minutes pretty much my Internet is dropping out! 🤬🤬 looks like @SkyUK might be gaining a new customer

  • chizzy73 Dave Chisnall (@chizzy73) reported

    @virginmedia Just sort out the rubbish service that it keeps having to reboot the router. Getting boring now!

  • drumastersmusic Dru Masters (@drumastersmusic) reported

    Rant about Virgin Media Business warning... @vmbusiness trying to pay you for your service but you keep cancelling the installation because YOU can’t change 16 to 16a... Really? Is it really that hard?

  • Babyootang Goat (@Babyootang) reported

    @virginhelp please can you help- been waiting for 3 weeks for @virginmedia to connect me after I moved and they let me down on 19th March. Customer service is abysmal and not getting anywhere! Been a loyal customer for years and problem is not being sorted!

  • James_4x James Hudson (@James_4x) reported

    @virginmedia I did. It was they who diagnosed our low upstream power and qam and said a technician needed to come out. We got a technician (eventually), who proved the issue was outside the property by replacing the router. There is nothing WE can do to fix this, which is why I want out.

  • sophiestevox Sophie Stevenson (@sophiestevox) reported

    @virginmedia need to sort their **** out n get our internet back up n running, no WiFi, no phone, no tv n they’re saying no engineers are available to come out n help so there’s nothing they can do 🙄🙄 what a shambles especially when people are relying on working from home

  • JoeCMerriman Joe Merriman (@JoeCMerriman) reported

    Lutz Schuler, CEO of Virgin Media is rumoured to be taking command of Britain's biggest mobile network, as it seeks regulatory approval for its £31bn tie-up with O2.
