    @virginmedia Though I am dyslexic I have painstakingly done this on multiple devices and have photos to show It - not posting them publicly but it does not recognise that password 😢 A search on line suggests the problem is not unique. I have one hour to call the manufacturer if you advice.

    @virginmedia hi, internet down in se5. A bit of a disaster for me as I have so much work on. Could you ask someone to check it?

    @virginmedia Hah really @virginmedia been trying live chat since 8am and now call but on hold for ages!! Is not on. Causing issues with my work!! #worstbroadband

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

  • AdamHMatthews
    Adam H-Matthews (@AdamHMatthews) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia How does £8.40 a day cover 2 people unable to work for a full day? Still no contact from Virgin engineer or any comment on what the issue is? The time to fix the issue just keeps getting later.

  • mrkinski
    Tony Kinson (@mrkinski) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    After the long outage overnight, @virginmedia was back online but is now down again. Any chance of you fixing it before we all need our connection for work in the morning? Asking for all your disgruntled customers. #VirginMediaDown

    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia There is a blockage, that I know - I have had no service since November. I was told it would not be sorted before March 6th. I had been promised 3 call backs from different people in the Exec Department - none have followed up.

  • WhiskyOneIce
    Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have chased and chased and spent 4 hours today on WhatsApp, no advise just can't help because I have outstanding bill....no the line isn't active because it was ported over to Community Fibre on 8th July

    @virginmedia another night not being able to use the platforms I pay for due to crappy service from yourselves

  • Khaled_Miah1
    Khaled Miah (@Khaled_Miah1) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?

  • macon1375
    Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia can have no rival to the worst customer service out there! Said resolved an issue after held for over an hour only to find it’s not and I now can’t get back in touch. 2nd day work ruined

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??

  • Avoiceonly2

    @virginmedia @massrossini1 System was restored this AM then stopped again at 4pm cannot do no work at all and customer service lines busy

  • Phil_Swallow
    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

    @virginmedia @Jaym7t5 My system is down since about 4pm

  • MiaZagica
    Baltazarka (@MiaZagica) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

  • AnnaThurmanLDN
    Anna Thurman (@AnnaThurmanLDN) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia sort it out! I’ve got Betty next door hollering at me over the fence when I’m trying to get the washing in asking if it’s gone down! #virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage

    @virginmedia @virginmedia its not my equipment, its your end. If you know how important it is why does the estimated fix time keep getting later - now its after 6pm. When the working day has finished. Logged on to speak with someone and can't verify me even though im logged into my account!?!

  • StephenHampson
    Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported

    @virginmedia White flashing light on the power button. Volume works but not that so can't watch catch up and can't watch any paid channels. New complaint incoming. Thanks a lot

  • Barbiknow
    Abbey (@Barbiknow) reported

    @virginmedia In the kitchen it’s very bad, bad in the bathroom, worse upstairs and it’s very frustrating. I just upgraded to a faster bandwidth but I haven’t seen a single difference except for that I am paying more money.

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @virginmedia It is still showing the same in status since the early morning. There is no any other update or any estimated time. At least I would expect another update saying about the outage and estimated fix time.

  • HatedDesign
    Hated Designs (Jamie) (@HatedDesign) reported

    @Afctopgooner @virginmedia mines out and the sites only telling me "We can’t connect to the broadband kit in your home" rather than telling me if theres an issue or not

  • MrBenGrant
    Ben Grant (@MrBenGrant) reported

    @virginmedia we are so done with you when our contract ends, barely a month goes by with outages and reliability issues! £73 a month you would expect top speeds and super reliability. Sadly not.

    Joanna O'Donovan (@22abfabf1cf4408) reported

    @virginmedia no broadband in Shankill. Outage?? No info on your app.

    My WiFi still down its been a whole *** day What is their problem 💔💔💔 Virgin media + o2 you're **** m8 fix your ******* wifi and TV services 🙏 I don't want to be ******* lectured for doing nothing productive

  • Kilsally_Redux
    Kilsally Redux (@Kilsally_Redux) reported

    Virgin Media O2 is gearing up to provide wholesale access to its network to challenge the dominance of BT. But it said Openreach was seeking to “choke” off competition before it had truly begun by luring third party companies away.

    Pete McManus (@PeteMcManus) reported

    Update… @vmbusiness might be the worst company I’ve ever come across for customer service! Stay well away, they will miss-sell you and then ignore you, promise you a call back and ignore you! Unbelievably bad
