  • 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!!

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

    @virginmedia I haven’t tried again as it would be my 4th attempt & I’m a very busy person. I’d appreciate any help or advice.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia you have completely messed up by accounts you are incompetent company I want my problems sorted now this as been going on for four days

  • 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. :)

  • 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 😮🙁

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

    @virginmedia Sorry you’ve just asked me if I’ve contacted your customer support team . How about you read the thread , yes over 5 hrs on the phone

  • 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

  • Amelia30549431 Amelia (@Amelia30549431) reported from Abingdon, England

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

  • Wendywirdz Wendy (@Wendywirdz) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia are the worst company to get hold of. If you read this, please contact me about my account!!!! #virginmedia

  • 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 😡

  • johndoran21 John P J D (@johndoran21) reported from Oxfordshire, England

  • kelly1latorre Kelly Ward ( was Collins ) (@kelly1latorre) reported

    What a stressful bloody morning trying to communicate with @virginmedia a member of their sales team rang me yesterday & changed my contract phone now with o2 after reading info tries cancel today they say they cannot change. Told them I must not have my actual number changed as

  • MelanieDerrico1 Melanie Derricott (@MelanieDerrico1) reported

    @virginmedia do you have an email address I can make a complaint to? I already contacted your "customer service" last Wednesday and I'm still waiting for my call back from a manager 🙄

  • gingerannie34 Annie C 💙 (@gingerannie34) reported

    Any idea when we'll be able to make outgoing calls @virginmedia ? tried to make some calls today just says Number not valid. I know it's not a me problem as others are having same issue. Thanks in advance 👍

  • kelly1latorre Kelly Ward ( was Collins ) (@kelly1latorre) reported

    @virginmedia as hospitals and Macmillan nurses all have my contact number and tell me I must speak to o2 who have sent me a new SIM card 😬 wtf 🤬!!!!!

  • Johnmhunt John M Hunt (@Johnmhunt) reported from Oxgangs, Scotland

    @virginmedia hi I’m aware there’s a calling issue just now on Virgin Mobile but I was wondering how to get an upgraded 5G SIM on ultimate Oomph as the one we have is only allowing 4G.

  • coopdoggg187 Stuart Cooper (@coopdoggg187) reported

    @virginmedia hi, any way of checking if mobile coverage is down in my area? Online coverage checker also not working for me. BN12 4RD area!

  • BusinessBad4 Bad4Business (@BusinessBad4) reported

    @virginmedia Don't worry, I've already given up. You're a massive conglomerate and I'm a pleb customer. Ofcom are just as bad and only provide the illusion that are to protect consumers - but again = pleb customer. It's a fight I'll never win, so I give up. Don't worry, I'll keep paying 😞

  • EggsyGLC John (Eggsy) (@EggsyGLC) reported

    @virginmedia I have not received any communication. Call centres are no help. Can some one please call me.

  • BusinessBad4 Bad4Business (@BusinessBad4) reported

    @virginmedia This morning it's fine thank you. I purely needed a record of the loss of service so I can be credited fairly. If I never noticed and reported it, you'd continue taking money without offer of discount. I pay for 24/7 service, whether used or not. Thanks for responding 👍

  • Smf06091 Smf0609 (@Smf06091) reported

    @virginmedia your service level is atrocious
