Cllr Thomas Ashby (@thomas_ashby_) reported from Witney, England. @virginmedia morning. Internet has just gone down on Mirfield Road in Witney. Do you have any news as to why? We did not have any notification.
-
Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia We need this sorting, as there are 3 of us working from home, involving video meetings. How do we get in touch with you to sort our services out? Our TIVo box is also slow to respond and on-demand isn’t working, due to internet problems. Help. Now. Please.

-
Bex Allen (@travellingbex) reported from Oxfordshire, England4yrs 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

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
-
Katharine Fellows (@KatieFellows1) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia Yep just checked our postcode and an issue has been flagged- hoping resolved soon!
-
CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported from Oxford, EnglandYou 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.

Melisa Soto (@Melyclassy) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia thank you for being an example of how bad customer service works! It took me 4 months to get on hold of you to cancel my service #NeverAgain
-
Miles Gomme (@MilesGomme) reported from Cumnor, England@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….
-
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

Headington News (@HeadingtonNews) reported from Oxfordshire, EnglandVirgin Media down in at least part of central Headington. Engineer on his way, apparently
-
Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia problems in OX2? No internet here
-
Olie Bosley (@Olski) reported from Abingdon, England@virginmedia how embarrassing is it for you that I would rather pay @skytv more per month just to not have to deal with your appalling customer service?
-
Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England@virginmedia upgrade to 360 has caused no end of issues - slow WiFi, slower TV, losing saved programmes, and customer services very unhelpful. When we suggested complaining they hung up. #virgin #nocustomerservice
-
Amanda Davies (@AmandaD00131015) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia Still not had the courtesy of a phone call 30 days after making 2 complaints. I would NEVER EVER recommend @virginmedia @libertyglobal. I had a box fitted to my house without my permission & hadn’t ordered
-
Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia is there a problem in Oxford? Video calls on team dreadful, and connection very inconsistent.

-
Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia Yes, it says no issues, but plainly this is not the case. TERRIBLE today and yesterday.
-
Oxford Wolf /\_/\ 🔶 (@Oxfordwolf) reported from Oxford District, England@virginmedia I've just received my price rise letter. Utterly extortionate! I will be calling you later to move providers. Your WiFi router is terrible as well. Perhapse my new provider will let me use the Internet more than 6ft away from the router?

-
Malcolm Sillick (@Malcolm_Sillick) reported@LeilaniDowding @EE Lellani, it's not just EE, it's everyone. Even those on cable (Virgin Media) still have to have the phone plugged into the router. Seems like a good idea, until you get a power cut (which can be supported by a back-up battery, which is NOT given as standard) If the internet goes down, then so does your phone. Great if you have a mobile, but if you live in an area with a poor mobile signal, so reply on 'Wi-Fi calling' in the house, then when the internet goes down, you also have no mobile service. It's called progress!!
-
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 😭😭
-
Tom J Jarvis (@TomJJarvis) reported@virginmedia I was sold Gig2 2Gbps symmetric in June. The upload was never delivered at the contracted speed. After three separate calls got nowhere, your Faults team corrected it, then applied a £6/month surcharge for the speed I had already bought. 1/
-
Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported@IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????
-
Paul Hulse (@paulpresenteruk) reportedDear @virginmedia I upgraded my package last night to add TV yet I wish to cancel this change due to the price for existing customers which is nearly double to what a new customer would get… I have tried to contact through various methods to cancel.
-
mmhmm (@xhatne) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia Easy solution here, someone should invent a method to get the leaflet through the door, so it ends up in the house, but passers by can't see it so it isn't obvious that nobody is home.
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reportedDay 35 of absolutely no services from @virginmedia and no useful information about when/if the outage in our area will ever get fixed. Let’s hope that @guardian Consumer Champions will look into this - I’ve just written to them. @Ofcom
-
Martin Whelan (@mairtinofaolain) reported@PaulOBrienKil @VirginMediaNews @VirginMediaIE Currently swapping to Digiweb for broadband. Customer service seems to be their thing. A sales rep from Eir annoyed me with his pushiness, and Virgin Media ain't that great a price anymore
-
Dermot Carmody (@DermotCarmody) reported@virginmedia hi. Your phone service and chat service are both failing after I input my account number.

Dr Peter Dilworth 💙 #Woke #GTTO 😷 Blue Tick👀 (@PeterDilworth1) reported@virginmedia please help these people out. You are now aware of the situation and are not providing the service you are being paid for.
