    @TheO2 and @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Be careful of this, they say they will send you a free SIM card. First off, it never arrived. Secondly, they rack up a bill baring in mind I’ve not used it. Then put it on your credit rating. So glad my three year contract ends with o2 soon.

    @virginmedia I only use the hub as a router for my internal network of Dlan Wi-Fi extenders. This provides the best solution in my house. Having another Wi-Fi signal only causes more issues. Manual control is always the best solution! The Dlan routers stopped working….

    For a communication co @virginmedia aren’t very commutative. Their internet is down AGAIN. 3rd time in 2 weeks. I saw one of their men at a roadside junction box. That’s dangerous they should leave that to the experts. I am seriously thinking of returning to @bt_uk

    @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. :)

    Bex Allen (@travellingbex) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    4yrs with @virginmedia never had a problem. But now that I do their 'customer service' sucks, endless cycles of talking to bots on their website, or being on hold for hours on the phone! 3 days of this just trying to get the Internet I'm paying for! #frustrated #virginmedia

    @virginmedia No problems so far today so fingers crossed

    Dear @virginmedia, our Internet stopped working at 4:50 this evening. Right before my 5pm work video call. Now I cant turn my @HiveHomeUK lights on because your service is still down. Get it sorted would you please.

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

    You only know how sitty a service provider relly is when something goes wrong. Was with @virginmedia for over 5 years. Now that i decided to leave they have charged me for 2 months with me already with another provider. After complaining they take 2 months to refund you and now that i sent them their router they somehow misplaced it and charged me 40 quid saying i didnt send it (even thought i had a call last week where i gave them the receipt) If you are their customer.. Get out as soon as possible and remember to block the direct debits. They cannot be trusted with your money.

    Nick Malden (@Malders) reported from Godstow, England

    @virginmedia Yes the internet has been down all day in Ox2 8pg. I rely on it for work!

    Anyone in the #Oxford area having serious issues with @virginmedia WiFi today? Ended up having to result to hot Spot from my phone to try and get work done. 😣

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

  • wcbutcher
    Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on? Been without internet in OX5 area since yesterday afternoon. Trying to work from home. These are difficult times as it is without this issue.

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia your services are becoming a joke. Constant WiFi issues and problems. Sort it out ASAP. Frustrating.

  • 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

  • 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 😮🙁

  • 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.

  • ellejack1824

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

  • zahoor_sheraz
    Sheraz Zahoor (@zahoor_sheraz) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @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!

  • 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

    @virginmedia Another day, another excuse from your service team. I message them and they have say nobody is coming: "I'm really sorry for the inconvenience caused. As I checked, the appointment was not attended due to technician unavailability."

  • phil66uk
    Phil66 (@phil66uk) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 And they don't take off anything if your service is down either

  • cbHatternew

    @virginmedia how long till your engineers resolve the red button issue on @SkySport ?

  • IAmTheSavageSho

    @virginmedia count your days WiFi has gone down in Colne Lancashire can't even play the new Zombies Map Rex Infernus because of it 🥀💔

  • Vonk9
    Veronica Dodd (@Vonk9) reported

    @WHUbluesman @virginmedia They denied there was a problem when I rang. Sent out an engineer who told me there was a known problem. What's the excuse?????

  • sadelta99
    Andy (@sadelta99) reported

    @virginmedia so your customer services promised that the broadband would be working by the end of the day…… it isn’t so more lies. Tv now apparently not going to work till tomorrow. Half expected as engineers went home around 18.00 leaving it broken

  • Carolestfc1
    Carole Yeo 🌻 (@Carolestfc1) reported

    Another football season and STILL @virginmedia cannot sort out the games on the red button. What the hell do I pay for? Complete incompetence. I want the service I pay for or a significant refund!'

  • LiamBolger7
    Liam Bolger (@LiamBolger7) reported

    @virginmedia @CliveR39 I still think it is not a technical issue but some sort of contractual issue between Sky and Virgin. Next step will be ‘technical issue’ logging on to Sky sports as a VM customer.

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 23 without our @virginmedia broadband (or phone, or TV) so I’ve celebrated by spending 90 minutes on hold with the “Customer Services” team and responding to the email from the Complaints team telling me that they had fixed my issue (spoiler: they hadn’t). Pathetic!

  • Cptredwaffle
    Captain_red_waffle (@Cptredwaffle) reported

    @virginmedia 3rd street-wide outage this year in LS6 tonight. Surveyors have confirmed my property is infra-locked with zero Openreach/Altnet access. Virgin holds a total monopoly here, yet the local street infrastructure is failing. Shambolic really, I need this escalating.
