    @virginmedia was offered a wifi pod service last week due to the poor internet in my property, got the one pod and was told to call back on the 20/5/21 to order the additional 2 that are available, now on the phone to your team and getting nowhere!

  • LydSmiz
    Lydia Smith (@LydSmiz) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia It’s been over a month since I sent an online complaint form (as advised by this account) and have heard nothing back since and it has been 4 months since the original issue (not to mention the 13 calls to customer service). When can I expect to hear back on my complaint?

  • Brimson1
    David Brimson (@Brimson1) reported from Yarnton, England

    @virginmedia unable to send emails on different email accounts. Is there a problem your end? 😖

    Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I got through & they ran some tests & everything was fine(:-) but it was suggested that maybe there is some Network maintenance somewhere & that when it’s completed the Top Green Flashing light on the Router will go back to normal🤞🙏👍

  • 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. :)

    @virginmedia broadband down in oxford. Looks like this is a national issue. When will it be fixed ?

  • missdrivanova
    Desi (@missdrivanova) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    Hey @virginmedia - I have no WiFi at all since about 7pm last night (OX2). Any idea what the issue is and when it will be resolved? Thanks!

    Wendy (@Wendywirdz) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia Finally we did. Took 2 days of texting. Not the best service.

    @LaurakBuzz @virginmedia They can slow down your service in busy times. Dodgy. It’s in the contract though

  • kirkknowles121
    Kirk (@kirkknowles121) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia Very poor & will now be cancelling. Third outage this year. Working from home you just cannot really on @virginmedia

  • bettyjo62
    Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yes I live in Abingdon and the service is not good. Anytime there is rain there seems to be a problem

  • roxanneselby
    Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    Terrible Virgin Media AGAIN this morning. Total misery. @virginmedia

  • StuPCrook
    Stuart Crook (@StuPCrook) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called them and got nowhere - it’s a simple request that should be a simple form - not an hour wait in the phone minimum. You don’t publish the number, it isn’t in the help screen and the chat function times out! #useless #poorcustomerservice

  • AmandaD00131015
    Amanda Davies (@AmandaD00131015) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have logged a complaint and have 2 reference numbers. No my house is 25 years old, not a new build

  • Adamox2020
    Adam (@Adamox2020) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia shocking WiFi issues in the Oxfordshire area. Sort it out. Its been on and off for months now. Fix it quickly. No excuses please. It's annoying and frustrating 😒

  • HilaryGurden
    Hilary Gurden (@HilaryGurden) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia can you tell us if the service is down. We have had no tv or internet for the last half an hour

  • poolshark1972
    Chris Chapman (@poolshark1972) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin just been treated like a thick criminal by your customer service team, all because your website has locked me out and won't let me re-register. You should be ashamed.

    @virginmedia No problems so far today so fingers crossed

    So done with @virginmedia, live chat is useless, offer you absolutely terrible deals 'Your renewal offer will be £15 a month more than you currently pay, despite above inflation cost increases every April and you will receive nothing extra in return. This is our biggest discount'

  • JHNaismith
    James (Jim) Naismith (@JHNaismith) reported

    Usually optimistic on technological progress so disappointed broadband speed being > halved to 67Mbps next month by @bt_uk. @virginmedia can’t fix their “blocked duct” at front door, not good advert for uk infrastructure, I live in Jericho, central Oxford, not remote Highlands.

  • PaulOBrienKil
    Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported

    @virginmedia @MizzCQ I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.

  • Dharmi04
    dharmi04 (@Dharmi04) reported

    @virginmedia my broadband seems to be down, can you check and fix ?

  • lionking2014
    Martin (@lionking2014) reported

    @JuanSpanishfly @LPXIOP @virginmedia I know how it works I was using voip 30 years ago!... The problem is the virgin broadband is down more often than the virgin phone line... So seems like I am losing a reliable landline line to go over a dodgy broadband one!

  • PaddySw99745534
    Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported

    @virginmedia @_JIMBO55 You still have not got it ! A customer has problems with your service who has messaged, emailed and called VM but you still have not dealt with their issues. Take your out of date equipment out of my home and I will move on to a better provider. For an 82 year old unacceptable.

  • s4m1rk23
    SK (@s4m1rk23) reported

    @james_bull8 DM me my brother works for Virgin media - he’ll put your whole package down guaranteed (internet + TV Package). Your getting scammed 😭😭

  • chewytheleftie
    Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported

    @alan_reddish @sibelian62 @virginmedia They are a terrible company for internet. Fortunately for us we have plenty of their direct rivals who we use instead now after they made it clear our custom was of no interest to them

    Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported

    First-time drug possession may no longer mean prosecution. From today, adults caught with a small amount of drugs for personal use may instead be referred to the HSE for support. They must admit the drugs were for their own use and agree to take part in the scheme. More on Virgin Media PLAY.

    @virginmedia I moved house on August 28th and Virgin has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. #Sutton #England #SOS
