    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.

    @Niki44 @virginmedia Commiserations. Prepare for a life or poor internet and misery.

    @CloopR @virginmedia Also had a huge issue with Together Energy who owed me £500 and wouldn’t pay it. Eventually contacted finance lady at Daily Mail who contacted them and I got my money. Will dig her details out if I can. She was very helpful.

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

    @virginmedia Hi there. Never got my 5 GB SIM card as stated in my contract. Been waiting for over a month and never got it! Impossible to get through customer services to speak to a human...

    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.

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

    I had an issue with my @bt_uk tv box. I got through straight away and a replacement box was sent forthwith. I had help setting it up. Brilliant service. Eat your heart out @virginmedia

  • 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.

    Rob H&ynes (@RobOnABike) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @CSmit77 @virginmedia @richardbranson Whereabouts in Oxford are you, Christian? We had a brief outage this morning, and now we've been out again for half an hour.

  • MilesGomme
    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….

  • roxanneselby
    Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England

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

  • SmithRodwsmith1
    Rodney Smith (@SmithRodwsmith1) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia I went on Virginmedia & it said they know of a TV Issue & it was affecting TV Go Users so does this it could be affecting normal TV Viewing through V6 Box & Virginmedia Router. The Fix time is estimated for 12pm Tomorrow(Engineer) I cannot watch TV Now it keeps going On & Off😱😫

    @ChloeThomsonYT @virginmedia Internet sounds as bad as their billing!

  • Malders
    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!

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

    @virginmedia the system is down in OX5 again. Also how are we expected to report a fault on line if it’s down. This is unacceptable 2nd time in 2days. Will the £50 compensation you offered for the 1st now be increased. It’s NYE so Plse get it sorted.

  • inmilla68
    Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Milton, England

    @virginmedia I have already written to you twice in here and you just don’t bother to answer. Impossible to communicate with Virgin by any means. No customer services whatsoever!

    Filer (@FilerPlays) reported

    @MachineGunLuk3y @virginmedia Majority’s of the ISP’s in my area run off the BT network so I’ve got fibre to the property with about 1GB down. I’ve had Virgin before and didn’t rate it, had issues similar to yourself as well mate.

  • eastmancred
    David Mellor (@eastmancred) reported

    @United_Webby @virginmedia @virginmedia are without doubt the worst company I've ever dealt with. Nothing ever works and you can't speak to anyone about it. Don't do it Webby.

  • 5amcoek

    @virginmedia Is there any more detail on the fix? It just keeps getting pushed back every couple of hours

  • QuanTuM_kL
    K (@QuanTuM_kL) reported

    @JJMootts @virginmedia I don't get why everyone moans, been with them for nearly 20 years and might have had 3 issues, it's almost never down, the internet speeds are far beyond what any other provider can do, although the others may have finally caught up, for years it wasn't close.

  • markoram1
    Mark Oram (@markoram1) reported

    Hi @virginmedia Have to say I have dealt with a company as bad as yours , I am trying to help my elderly neighbour who happens to have been a customer of yours for 30 yrs plus deal with her badly missold package ,

  • Farestage

  • davidclbyrne
    David Byrne (@davidclbyrne) reported

    No work phone for 3 weeks, Over 20 calls to “Customer Service”, AI that doesn’t work, Technical support that doesn’t work, Incompetence at a level impossible to describe, And no call back since Monday. I’ve had same number for 32 years-until I went to @virginmedia

  • TomQuante
    Tom Quante (@TomQuante) reported

    @virginmedia You won't answer your phone (apparently this is a tactic you use..?) and I am not paying my increased bill. Cancelled my DD with you so I will let you chase me instead. Your customer service is still terrible
