    @virginmedia Hi I downloaded the latest Update for my Apple Phone & ever since then when i click on my Virginmedia Hub3 my phone says it’s connected to the network but has weak security I’ve never known it to say that before😱

  • MilesGomme
    Miles Gomme (@MilesGomme) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia why did you bother sending out the email about opting out of having your Wi-Fi settings changed, when you go and do it anyway!! I had to reset and turn off all the changes you made! If it isn’t broken don’t fix it!!!

    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

    @virginmedia Yes, it says no issues, but plainly this is not the case. TERRIBLE today and yesterday.

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

    Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Yes. We have been without internet in the area since yesterday and sit nice yesterday you are saying you will get it fix in the next 4 hours. Just now, another text that we’ll have to wait till 8 o’clock. This a joke, honestly 😡

  • travellingbex
    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

  • a1_nos
    A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Abingdon, England

    @CloopR @virginmedia Just horrid. I had the same problem with Vodafone. In the end the only way I resolved it was a good friend was golfing buddies with the CEO otherwise I don’t think I’d have sorted it.

  • RNeacsu
    Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia And yes I called to your outage number, apparently there is no known issue in the area. Even though last night at 11.30pm in the app the status check showed every service is down, even though they weren't down last night. This happens only during working hours.

    @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.

  • 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

  • SuzanneG1996
    Suzanne Gorham (@SuzanneG1996) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia broadband been down all day, tried everything to restit with no avail, its making working from home abslotuly impossible! Service checker online says no known faults in our area?

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

    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

  • 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

  • gill_haley33
    Gillian Haley (@gill_haley33) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia It seems a little expensive and I was hoping for a reduction as being a pensioner and a customer of Virgin long before it was Virgin, namely. Comtel back.on the day.

  • 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?!?

  • Malders
    Nick Malden (@Malders) reported from Godstow, England

    @virginmedia No difference with hub factory reset as a router with other router switched off. Green internet light flashing on the hub. Message Problem connecting to the internet on 192.168.1.1.

    BZSM1TH (@BazingaSmth) reported

    @virginmedia So ALL servicea are currently down in CT17 (TV, Fiber , and phone) They have been down since 1500hrs on July 13th. Not expected back up and running until 1300hrs on 14th July. This is not acceptable. You really are totally inept

  • EnzoFerro2023
    Enzo Ferro (@EnzoFerro2023) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Very sorry for your loss. I left virgin media a few years back after very poor service and I am hearing lots of examples recently of why I will never return.

  • sinbinnin
    Sinbinnin (@sinbinnin) reported

    @virginmedia We have had no TV in L22 since Saturday 11th July, outage checker has shown fix time this afternoon - just received a text to say engineer on the way, fix time now tomorrow. This is a bit more than rubbish, how do I claim compensation? (I thought it was automatic)

  • K6HolteEnd
    RedditchVilla (@K6HolteEnd) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Virginmedia were horrible to us. My mother had a stroke and had severe dementia. we tried to cancel her broadband and just keep the tv as she couldn't use a computer any more. They kept asking to speak to her and got angry when she couldn't remember her password. Utter scum.

  • MichaelLCrick
    Michael Crick (@MichaelLCrick) reported

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK As I have said here before, Virgin Media treat customers with total contempt. The worst type of British capitalism. Branson must be so ashamed.

  • UAVHive
    UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported

    Virgin Media simply do not seem to grasp customer service, I really fear the damage the merger with O2 will do to the service there. Penny pinching over a bereavement is proof of a fundamentally mismanaged customer service.

  • Yolo123Rana
    CFC._AKHI😴 (@Yolo123Rana) reported
