    @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.

    mark (@PieFaceMark) reported from Poplar, England

    Absolute nightmare with @virginmedia arranging new package. Since agreeing package deal yesterday I've received FOUR different emails telling me I'm gonna be paying four different amounts, all higher than what was agreed. Absolutely terrible customer service and real headache

    My day off and I still cannot watch Amazon prime due to virgin media delivering a ****** service. I really think we need to switch providers now. Enough is enough.

    @virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

  • discobabe76
    DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

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

  • eviemae239
    Ben Rogers (@eviemae239) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia wi-fi down yet again for about the 5th time this week. Constantly going down over last few weeks as well, absolute shambles.

    @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.

  • TravellingAdam

    @virginmedia my internet is constantly not working it’s really frustrating.

    @virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service

  • 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?

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

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

    @virginmedia It's okay I've taken it up with CEDR now and let them resolve it, I'm just highlighting to people how difficult it is to cancel contracts and the fact that VM consistently "loose" letters

  • markselondon
    Mark 🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England

    @ttastev @virginmedia Website is down also I can’t get anyone from virgin media, looks like whole of U.K. is down.

    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

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

  • markrhorney
    Mark (@markrhorney) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia again really???? I just signed up to a flipping contract and broadband goes down again! Worst mistake. Should have went with another provider. My Plex and my security system is down. Thanks for nothing virgin. 🤬🤬🤬

    Virgin Media. An astonishingly **** company, even by the standards of the UK telecoms industry. You are an absolutely ******* appalling company. You utter ******* disgrace.

  • finn33
    Caroline (@finn33) reported

    @virginmedia And it’s gone down. Again. Are you actually kidding me. What is this lunch time and virgin stops supplying broadband. How hard is this. Get it sorted. I’ve done all the trouble shooting and I’ve paid my bills. Jesus wept. I pay enough. Sort it out.

    @mb26026 @SkySports @virginmedia Yep and they still charge stupid money each month for it, whilst delivering such poor quality!

  • Johnsonio
    Magic A-J (@Johnsonio) reported

    @virginmedia wasted my time talking to your customer services. My contract is up, you’re offering me same package for £27pm online and asked customer service for a better deal and they offer me £43pm! Guess I’ll go elsewhere then

  • ShamaJunejo
    Dr Shama Junejo (@ShamaJunejo) reported

    There is no WiFi service since yesterday in South Croydon @virginmedia and no one is providing information that when it will be restored. You are the worst broadband provider in the area with pathetic customer service.

    John Spencer 555 (@johnspencer555) reported

    @virginmedia Harlow here, Hub and TV down in afternoon, evening, and all night? It's back on this morning. As Hub does Telephone, it's difficult to find out what's happening.
