-
Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?
-

-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 1/ I've been without internet access since last night. I called this morning at 830 and did reset as told, didn't work so was told it'd be passed on to network engineers and they'd get back to me if it didn't come back on within the hour.

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.
-
Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England@virginmedia Pre install Refused to acknowledge any wrong, wouldn't get anyone to even attempt to look till 24th, cust. Service refused to engage as pre installs problem, so am left still with no Internet and no way to sort issues, plus having been spoke to rudely
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, EnglandShockingly 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
-
hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?
-
Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but I’ve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.
-
anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently
-
Chris 🏳️🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, EnglandCalled Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@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.
-
Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia It’s now showing there is a problem. It’s been going on for 3 days now being very intermittent but only just started showing there was a problem this morning
-
Alex (@ameehan71) reported from Bromley, England@_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandListening to the broadband presentation on @itvMLshow with some irony. I pay @virginmedia £79/month for broadband/phone & TV. BB/TV failed in November, after many calls they say it will be fixed in March 2023 😬 Compensation is only calculated when service is restored 😪 Fair?
-
Kerry Vaughan (@Boubs1985) reported from Addington, EnglandAint it funny how my Internet was good as gold until @virginmedia tried to convince me to upgrade. Now its absolutely terrible 🙄
-
Mark 🏴 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandBe careful if you ever want to cancel a @virginmedia account, I wrote to them, twice as per their T&C because you can never get through on chat or phone, they deny receipt of letters because you cant send recorded delivery so they just keep sending bills and chasing payments

Rusty Spoons (@JustRusty) reported@virginmedia How vile. There is no amount outstanding on my account. It has been paid. The response I got from the credit file amendments team was to contact the credit file amendments team. So I'll just go to CISAS. You're even horrible on social media. No wonder your trust pilot is so low.
