    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??

  • Phil_Swallow
    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

  • Keldavey
    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?

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

  • DogAteMyWookie
    Mr Wookie aka Cliff (@DogAteMyWookie) reported from Croydon, England

    Hey @virginmedia when are people in the CR0 postcode going to get their Internet back? It's been down since lunch? Any ETA? Need to plan if I need to go to the office tomorrow instead.

  • gorgeousuk
    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

  • PieFaceMark
    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

    @virginmedia please provide an urgent update on this lengthy outage and when services will be restored #Virgin #Virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage

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

    @virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal 💔

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

    @virginmedia Broadband gone down again in SE3 8HT area, I’ve reset the hub 3times and still no Wi-Fi or broadband. I’m using data on my phone again.

    @IanSlaterPhoto1 @VixThatRuns I have a sizeable Samsung. Ditched Virgin Media, the plan was to have Freeview. The tv doesn’t support Freeview!

  • illymus
    Illy Mus 💙 (@illymus) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia so you hike our prices up and then the Internet has been awful today. Left home at 6am, just got home and still the same issue. Our landline relies on Internet and so does my 83 year old mother who uses it. Remind me what I am paying for???

  • Avoiceonly2
    A voice only (@Avoiceonly2) reported from Blackheath, England

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

    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.

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

    @virginmedia No effort is made to rectify the problem they just want to change to VOIP with no regard to a customer who spends over £1200 a bear for all devices, I wonder what offcom would think

  • strutcakes
    Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, England

    Called 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.

    @virginmedia you need to up your game guys. Two weeks of intermittent connectivity and the best you can do is tell me that I need someone to come to my home but Ill have to pay a £25 fee if I miss the booking slot. How about I charge you £25 per day for lack of service?

  • Badmufc
    .Bad (@Badmufc) reported

    Hey @virginmedia My nets been down since 10 o'clock last night got any information on anything at MK42 8TS. Can't even make a phonecall to VM 😭

  • FrazzzYT
    Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported

    "There is intermittent signal in your area" so what did @virginmedia spend nearly a week destroying the Internet in this area actually fix... can't wait to leave once Openreach finish their build in this area. Sick of terrible service. Trying to run a business lol

  • Yuzi87
    Greg Cunnington (@Yuzi87) reported

    @virginmedia I've been a Virgin Media customer for 20 years, I've been paying out of contract rates at £109 a month for 2 years without realising. When I create a package as a new customer its £37 a month, however as a long time customer my new price is £68. Nice way to treat your Customers!

    Savannah (@justicenowxxx) reported

    O2 @O2Help @VirginMedia This complaint has involved 25+ written exchanges, contradictory information, refusal to provide a senior review, and now a complete service failure abroad. I need O2 to fix roaming immediately, refund any charges, and review goodwill compensation properly

    @Buzillion Now three is giving me 15 pounds option sha , the problem is the building only had virgin media service

  • DarcKni68649817
    Darc Knight (@DarcKni68649817) reported

    @virginmedia If the service is not paid for, it is stopped. @virginmedia is not giving you the consideration of old time customer. So why then is it OK to triple the bill of any household? Pay over 3 what they should pay for 9 months? Give a public explanation before I give my account details

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @virginmedia We’ve been w/out home broadband (B91) for 16 days. No info why it’s taking so long to fix. Date keeps shifting- for a week it was 5 Aug, then shifted to v specific 12 Aug @ 15:08. Today’s text said engineer here & fixing it. Then went back to 12th. What is going on??

    @biggle1908 Virgin media will be very helpful when you want to join but you’ll regret it when there’s a problem or you want to leave, their customer service is probably one of the worst in the industry imo.
