  • AdiStaempfli Adi Staempfli (@AdiStaempfli) reported from London, England

    I understand it takes time to replace fibre optics. I don‘t understand why @virginmedia sends out messages that are plain wrong. My connection is not working, has not been working ever since Tuesday evening. Is this to avoid having to pay back customers?

  • walshChanny Channy (@walshChanny) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did, a VM agent went through the whole event and resolved it for me. There are thousands of VM customers in a FaceBook group suffering similar problems it is called Virgin Media Customer Service.

  • chinaheart7 Karen Louise 💙💞🌈🙏 (@chinaheart7) reported from Dartford, England

    @Matthew_Wright @virginmedia Go to BT. Never had any BS from them.

  • LynetteSzeto Lynette Szeto-Martinez (@LynetteSzeto) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have this app, have scanned. Sometimes coverage is bad.

  • Adrianmilesarch Adrian Miles (@Adrianmilesarch) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia broadband has been absolutely dire in the last few weeks. Phases of outage or sun 2mbps speeds. Anyone else experiencing similar in SE26 area? Remember it was around cold snap it got bad - maybe affected the infrastructure.

  • Adrianmilesarch Adrian Miles (@Adrianmilesarch) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Service status says no known issues but when I call over the phone an automated message refers to intermittent problems last two days and that engineers are taking a long time to fix complex problems. Currently ok but recently every day there is a long period of issues.

  • watchvideosoul Nezih Savaşkan (@watchvideosoul) reported from Lambeth, England

    Yet another night of Virgin Media going down yet again. SW16. @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • KBHeadteacher Keith Barr (@KBHeadteacher) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia any chance of connectivity @KenderSchool ... ? Any help would be welcomed, please...

  • LynetteSzeto Lynette Szeto-Martinez (@LynetteSzeto) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Done a service rest of area, say no. My router diagnostic says there is a problem.

  • IanBorrett ian (@IanBorrett) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia without a doubt the worst company I've dealt with. But they have a great person in Stefano, an engineer in the SW4 area. He has actually gone above and beyond to provide some customer service. I hope Virgin notice this, but they probably won't.

  • devanHD devanHD (@devanHD) reported from Lambeth, England

    **** #virginmedia No Broadband, No Tv and No Landline #SW2. Been an hour already, sort yr **** out or lose another 200,000 customers this quarter! Up To You!

  • billosmond bill osmond (@billosmond) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Just tried that. Endless waiting and ended up exactly where I started. Just can’t speak to a human and explain my specific issue.

  • JamesJWalsh James-J Walsh (@JamesJWalsh) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I have been “on hold” since 1851 for a customer service agent. This is kinda cementing my view of needing to leave.

  • watchvideosoul Nezih Savaşkan (@watchvideosoul) reported from Lambeth, England

    Clearly the 06:05 ETA for a fix is an arbitrary generic number, as on the 1st March when it went down, the fix ETA was 06:05 too. @virginmedia

  • IanBorrett ian (@IanBorrett) reported from Lambeth, England

    5th visit in 20 days from @virginmedia today to fix my broadband. Am I confident they'll actually give me the service they charge me £112.50 a month for? Am I hell. Can I actually get thru and speak to a virgin employee? Don't be ridiculous.

  • IanBorrett ian (@IanBorrett) reported from Lambeth, England

    Guess what? Yes, @virginmedia is down again. I have no idea what I have done to them but they are treating me like I'm a c**t. Since 12 Feb I can count the days of adequate service on one hand. What an embarrassment of a company.

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Don’t tell me what to do. I want this tedious issue RESOLVED!

  • billosmond bill osmond (@billosmond) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Just to update you. Engineer came round on Monday and informed me there was a local issue with broadband that @virginmedia were aware of and was surprised I had not been informed. The last engineer who came round seemed unaware of this!!! How do I get compensated? Anyone know?

  • ReneeDoegar Renee Doegar (Cohn) (@ReneeDoegar) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia wifi down in Brixton (SW2). It says you’re not getting it fixed until tomorrow?! Any chance it will be done sooner than this? It’s a pretty vital resource for many of us right now!

  • walshChanny Channy (@walshChanny) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That is what happened. If it didn’t happened to you it is even more strange. Do you want me to do it again and record it? In the meantime, I was contacted today and agreed a way forwards to stay with VM. It is quite hard to have to deal with bad customer care while grieving.

  • JcukSarita Sarah (@JcukSarita) reported

    @virginmedia Hi thank you for replying I got a call earlier today explaining why the increase had happened it was a automated email sent out as my next provider have requested my phone number. As I explained the the gentleman earlier. I appreciate the help I am now receiving 1/2

  • StevenOgilvie92 Steven Ogz (@StevenOgilvie92) reported

    @virginmedia Ye I’ve checked and apparently there’s a TV issue in the area but broadband and phone is fine. Assuming the tv issue wouldn’t have an affect on the wifi?

  • Lordylord Lordylord (@Lordylord) reported

    @virginmedia It appears to still be down due to network issues

  • JcukSarita Sarah (@JcukSarita) reported

    @virginmedia We signed up to the Ultimate Volt bundle, was installed on Friday and my Husbands been on the phone to you regarding his new sim 3 times today and been hung up on/disconnected every time. Please help!

  • krisbradshaw Mr Duncan-Bradshaw (@krisbradshaw) reported

    @virginmedia I've now submitted a complaint via your online form... it is like you're trying to stop customers leaving you.. but when you increase prices and give nothing extra, it isn't surprising at all!!!

  • patricksocks77 Dean Young (@patricksocks77) reported

    Not very happy,just spent half an hour waiting to get through to @virginmedia to report an issue,got through to customer service only to get cut off on 2 occasions,followed all the online instructions to no avail,I just need to speak to someone to report the problem

  • ben_pounds Ben Pounds (@ben_pounds) reported

    @virginmedia why exactly won't you let customers go for a cheaper option when they are no longer on a contract?I've been told if I want a cheaper option I'd have to cancel and then rejoin 3 months later Nothing but poor customer service!

  • nickbamford Nick Bamford (@nickbamford) reported

    @simonnread @virginmedia As they have written a letter to you doesn’t that mean you can terminate your contract with them the same way by writing and telling them so? Then cancel your DDM.

  • JcukSarita Sarah (@JcukSarita) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 However because of continuous bad experiences prior I do not wish to continue with Virgin Media and will continue to move over to the new provider. All I hope is that the powers at be take note and seriously improve their Customer service call centres. Thanks for your time
