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

  • 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.

  • 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???

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

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

  • PJacksonClark
    #TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Thanks KF for your speedy reply. But since "Frankie Bot" and I started chatting three hours ago via customer service chat I've been left waiting. Is that as good as it gets?

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

    After a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻

  • JosephS65112253
    Joseph Sweeney (@JosephS65112253) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.

  • Ashley_Rhysss
    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

    @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?

  • marksonofjohn

    @virginmedia Hi No broadband service in CB113HG Can you please tell me what the issue is.

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

    @virginmedia 8/ have to pay if it came down to a third party router intimating that the fault was mine. No appointment till Thursday! I tried to explain that I care for an elderly lady and he wouldn't let me speak and kept interrupting me which was incredibly rude. I advised him to let me

  • 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

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

    @MayorofLondon Shame they provide the most terrible customer service and treat you like they've got you by the short and curlies! Pay £400 a year for a service, custome service agents are like robots and stuff you for days when it doesn't work with no alternative offered! @virginmedia

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia They advise they would send a signal to router, I then turn off after 5 mins, for 10 mins and when back on all will be working! Well it didn’t make a difference and my speed test shows my downloads dropped from 236mbs to 36. The issue is uploads tho at 0.5mbps. On hold again!

  • 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.

  • Champs707007
    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

  • willbassoumba
    William (@willbassoumba) reported from Camberwell, England

    Virgin media is down and I actually have to talk to my family… yuck.

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

    @virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

    TheseColorsDontRun (@truthtellerGB) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia What’s more insane is that you are using Virgin Media. One of the worst service provider in the UK alongside O2.

  • kkitkat_exe
    spidella's kitkat🍫 || exams (@kkitkat_exe) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia dude virgin media probably dont even know what theyre charging you for their customer service is so *** talk to an ombudsman theyll get back to you much quicker

  • mrwood71
    Mick.W (@mrwood71) reported

    @virginmedia you have the most rudest and aggressive sales personnel that called me after checking your website and thinking of joining. @skytv you have the worst renewal offer after joining 15 years ago when returning from overseas service Any alternatives?

  • cleggy1966
    Simon (@cleggy1966) reported

    @virginmedia I already have done and it is hopefully being sorted. All depends on whether the engineer turns up this afternoon or whether you decide to cancel the appointment again

  • SarahDruscilla
    Sarah Loughran (@SarahDruscilla) reported

    @O2 since joining virgin media the coverage in Milton Keynes is terrible. I’m almost always on 1 bar. You’ve gone from being the best signal in the area to probably the worst.

  • djraw123
    jane rawlings (@djraw123) reported

    @virginmedia The worst service provider ever ! This is the final straw ! You steal people’s money !

  • cleggy1966
    Simon (@cleggy1966) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. Because there was still an outage in the area, you cancelled the appointments. My issue was separate to the outage, but apparently you just cancel any appointments when there is an outage, irrespective of whether the issue relates to it or not. Madness.

  • Conquistadur
    RR (@Conquistadur) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia Just leave them they'll never get the money of you anyhow, and there's no way they can stop you leaving. Just sign up with a new company that will come to your house and install an order with no problems.. you are already disconnected, so there's nothing they can do.

  • laankaan
    kaan #freeimamoglu (@laankaan) reported

    @virginmedia So should I check your outage page daily to see if I’m getting the service I’m already being overcharged for? It took 30 minutes to talk to someone btw. Also; scaring people to overpriced renewals 6 months in advance is DISGUSTING.

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia Well after 30 years that's me left VM. I would advise anyone to check their contracts to make sure you are not getting charged for a package you never signed up for(Like me) Forget complaining and watch out for the trick of you having to apply for a returns package
