    @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. :)

    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!

  • 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?

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported from Oxford, England

    @virginmedia @FuzziePieRat Yes.. And how ****** up is it that you treat your existing paying customers so badly they have to attempt to do these hacks to get what you are freely giving away to new customers?

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

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

    @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. :)

  • Hoopsjackal
    Mark Crossley (@Hoopsjackal) reported from Wheatley, England

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

    @MarkRover @virginmedia Nightmare, normally get good comms when things are down but I have nothing to go on.

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

    @virginmedia Then why did the call handler say 48 hours.? 28 days is unacceptable & no one has contacted me to find out details, so how can they resolve my issue?!?

  • IHTP67
    Anne Davis (@IHTP67) reported

    @Virgin @virginmedia can you please update customers on current outage ongoing for 48hrs. Parents cannot get through due to long wait times. This is an unacceptable situation. Please advise all customers regardless of whether they have been able to report it.

  • JCorbinHus
    J Corbi (@JCorbinHus) reported

    @virginmedia 19hrs + no broadband security system down in a high crime area. This morning I was offered comp £10 by customer service agent as a “goodwill gesture” for inconvenience 🙄

  • leelamalur
    SRao (@leelamalur) reported

    @virginmedia No one to help and besides have charged a penalty for non- payment. Terrible service. Will find a way to get out of the contract.

  • Dave_Syracuse
    Dave (@Dave_Syracuse) reported

    @VirginMedia you're wifi isn't working again. Your say you'll fix it by the 19th of May but that isn't good enough. I pay you for reliable wifi connection every day. I'm not receiving that. This is a formal complaint and I expect to be reimbursed for my stress and inconvenience.

  • pjpar

    @virginmedia how do I claim compensation for no TV service now for 2 Days??????

  • Why__OMG__Why
    G HUNTer (@Why__OMG__Why) reported

    @DowndetectorUK found alternative ways of watching ITV1. get a clearer constant picture than Virgin Media. Several sources at zero cost. With the constant problems and ever increasing costs, I don't mind if I get interrupted tv at such an enormous discount.

  • Daveytmartin
    Davey Lad (@Daveytmartin) reported

    @Craighale4 @ArmchairAdml @virginmedia Call them and say you don't want the phone line anymore when your contract is up. They will offer you a deal. Just done it went down from £88 to £48 with Netflix!
