    @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

  • pepetideo Pepetideo (@pepetideo) reported from Didcot, England

    After waiting for over 1 hour to talk to a human on @virginmedia, can't help but feel like I was being trolled by the choice of background songs. One says "I could get used to this", other about being down down down... Somehow I don't think this is the best choice of mood music.

  • 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

  • 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 😮🙁

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

  • 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!!

  • 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 😡

  • 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. :)

  • 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

  • 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.

  • chrisdaleoxford Chris Dale (@chrisdaleoxford) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness @virginmedia A major fault apparently. They claim to be “working hard” to fix it. Shambles

  • andyamonty Andy Montgomery (@andyamonty) reported from Wantage, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is STILL not working... new engineer installed today following a move, and couldn’t make it work. Promised me I’d get a call, but didn’t. I phoned tech support, they promised a call in 4 hours. Guess what THEY DIDNT EITHER.

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

  • 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!

  • HeadingtonNews Headington News (@HeadingtonNews) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    Virgin Media down in at least part of central Headington. Engineer on his way, apparently

  • 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. :)

  • 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.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Danidinger Dani (@Danidinger) reported

    @virginmedia It is a problem with the hub which cannot be resolved until Tuesday. I also have a mobile contract under virgin. Is there any way that we can receive extra data free so we can at least hot-spot our mobiles for some form of Internet until then?

  • ZChugtai Zoheb Chugtai (@ZChugtai) reported

    @virginmedia ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED WITH YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE. I SAID I AM LEAVING AND GOT TOLD “WELL I DONT CARE”

  • DUCKmagstoke DUCK MAGAZINE (@DUCKmagstoke) reported

    Virgin Media really are crap

  • koppitetillidie Mike Jones (@koppitetillidie) reported

    @virginmedia getting m63 error after you upgraded me to virgin 360 now can't use pause rewind record on demand. Customer services basically lied to me when they said I'd get called this morning.

  • RyanTwist5 Ryan Twist (@RyanTwist5) reported

    @virginmedia please sort you’re shite internet service out

  • coupe_garry Garry (@coupe_garry) reported

    @virginmedia Took Virgin to CISAS the phone adjudicator and won my case £200. I strongly recommend that anyone having trouble with virgin to contact CISAS.

  • LukePawley1 Luke Pawley (@LukePawley1) reported

    @virginmedia Please just help me to alleviate the stresses we already have with out current situation by doing the simplest thing in replacing our faulty equipment. We are a victim of circumstance none of which is by choice and you could provide the easiest solution. I can leave it outside!

  • wml82 wayne lenahan (@wml82) reported

    @virginmedia Splitting the WiFi signal from the hub. But it doesn't make any difference even if it is cable connected direct to the hub same issue. I am sorry but I am paying lots of money monthly and at the moment am struggling to even use the laptop for home working nevermind gaming etc.

  • XRPrometheus XR_Prometheus (@XRPrometheus) reported

    @virginmedia They got back to me and said they'd get back within 3? Also the complaint was not recieving a £75 voucher 100 days after I should have received it. Customer service terrible as usual, I vowed I'd never come back to virgin 3 years ago but have you another chance... That went well.

  • shortchick77 Nat 💙💖💜 (@shortchick77) reported

    FFS every time I try to watch something on a streaming site the internet connection from @virginmedia goes down it’s so frustrating 🤬🤬🤬
