-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandAfter 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 🙏🏻
-
Mr Wookie aka Cliff (@DogAteMyWookie) reported from Croydon, EnglandHey @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.
-
#TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia I've covered all the options; there aren't many. It tells me there are no problems in my area and then defaults to the bot chat.
-
Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Camberwell, England@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..
-
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.
-
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
-
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
-
Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England@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?
-
Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Lambeth, EnglandYou still have not fixed the internet at Sw4 @virginmedia ???? What do you reckon your subscribers think of you? Good or bad ???
-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub
-
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??
-
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.
-
Bernie Biggs (@Biggsy58) reported from Bexleyheath, England@virginmedia putting their tariffs up by 17.3% from 1st April - that’s 3.9% over the Retail Price Index Inflation of 13.4%…people getting nowhere near this sort of increase in their pay packets…hang your heads in shame especially in a cost of living crisis.
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@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.
-
Anna Thurman (@AnnaThurmanLDN) reported from Bexleyheath, England@virginmedia sort it out! I’ve got Betty next door hollering at me over the fence when I’m trying to get the washing in asking if it’s gone down! #virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage

Cruffers (@Cruffers) reported@virginmedia No you can’t log on in that way. I’ve tried it. And we shouldn’t have to when we’ve paid for the service. Very poor.
-
LeedsLadSam (@LeedsLadSam1) reportedIf anyone’s @virginmedia red button plus channels aren’t working for the football the best thing to do is login to the sky sports app/website. Click login with virgin media. Once logged in you can watch the games. 👌🏼 #virginmedia #skysports
-
The Yellow Head (@marcwalby) reported@IainSankey @virginmedia Interesting, this was going to be my move in October. I have never used the phone line and we don't watch any of the Virgin TV stuff. Was it really that hard to get just Broadband?
-
Paul THORNE (@harrewis) reported@virginmedia Unacceptable…should be offering compensation to customers for failing to provide the service being paid for.
-
Sarah Sanders💙 (@SarahSanders58) reported@IainSankey @virginmedia They just offered me savings of over £50 a month without even asking. Still need a landline because mobile reception here is awful. Got Sky Sports, Sky Cinema, HBO, Netflix so all set to not move from the sofa when it actually starts raining.
-
Colin Morty (@cmwba) reported@virginmedia red button not working again! What do we pay all this money for? #shockingservice
