    Oh great Broadband broken! , and now got to wait in for Virgin media to fix it tommorow afternoon. Probably punishment for not watching the funeral.

    @virginmedia No issues... I need to speak to someone I've tried everything... Reboot, reset and nothing is working

    Tim Hyson (@timhyson) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia 20 hours of being passed around your customer ‘care’ teams and no progress. And yet I doubt this is even close to a record.

    @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.

    Be 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

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

    @virginmedia Guys it seems to me @virginmedia is the only one that has problems? My neighbour who uses “talk talk” has never ever had a problem.. I am tired of @virginmedia excuses and I will leave, had enough of it thou..

    Time to ditch @vmbusiness I think, unreliable service & weak support

    Simon Groutage (@myball123) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia hi there, all of our services have dropped out in the last ten minutes, the router changed to a flashing red light without anybody touching it. I have rebooted the router and it comes back on but is still flashing red. No TV, no WiFi, no landline help please

    Apologies for the stream interruption last night folks- @virginmedia my ISP is dealing with a large service outage. Hopefully back up tonight!

  • discobabe76
    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.

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    @redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers

  • andy_s_battle
    Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia Just spouting corporate line does not improve the situation. No advanced notice, no resolution to problem, appointment missed, but if I am not here for a visit I am fined. This is very one sided for a service that has other companies wanting the business

    @virginmedia Are you going to post on here when fixed ..like a customer caring company would do ..or just let people spend all day checking

  • saoc78
    Steve O (@saoc78) reported

    The @O2 and @virginmedia online account process is the worst UX I've ever experienced. Whoever was in charge of pulling these services together needs sacking and blacklisting. Joke.

  • ElmoBz77

    @virginmedia I called up to check service but it says my account number and phone number don’t exist??

  • AnnyTrish
    Trisha (@AnnyTrish) reported

    @virginmedia All channels are scrambled. So that means any scheduled recordings will be useless. Zero info on the VM app. All you get is - sorry, please try again later. No help, no information, no nothing!

    Monica (@addingtonsquare) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t even log on to account. Keeps looping back and saying not recognised. More than tv issue then?

    @jmstocka @virginmedia Website never works properly, you get so far then it goes off.

  • HighburyRhino
    Andrew Forman (@HighburyRhino) reported

    @virginmedia No reply by phone and no ability to check anything via my account (which appears to not be recognised). Any timeline on a fix for TV issues in London N5?
