  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia They said this issue is affecting my connection as I seem to be connecting to 5 something not 2.4 ghz can anyone help.

  • ratandnob Rob and Nat (@ratandnob) reported from Bromley, England

    @JohnKingscott @virginmedia As an IT manager for Her Majesty’s Treasury I find it annoyingly ironic that my role now involves governing their hybrid video calls but I can’t actually join any because my broadband is down. Ridiculous. I’ll be discussing compensation for loss of service with the area manager

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Can you see if fix eta for fault F09107079 is Monday 12th July please

  • acartoonheart Stacey (@acartoonheart) reported from Camberwell, England

    Working from home is super fun when Virgin Media’s internet in south east London goes down completely for the entire morning and you have to use the hotspot on your phone to try and get any work done 😬

  • agustin Agustin Pesciallo (@agustin) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia There is no current estimate. Still without internet. How can I cancel the service?

  • ratandnob Rob and Nat (@ratandnob) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Virgin Media Outage Update - Description: Service update. Broadband, Voice and TV fault F009165729. The latest update we have is: Our engineer is on site and they're working to fix the problem. The estimated repair time is now: 17/07/2021 20:00:00

  • StephenHance1 Stephen Hance (@StephenHance1) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Nothing other than to telephone again. We do now have an appointment so we will see if it gets fixed. Two of us working from home in zoom-heavy roles has been very difficult. And the only action we have got has been via ombudsman not your customer services.

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Omg this is ridiculous this has been since the 18th June.. I have such poor connection and I am wfh ? An engineer appointment to my house was booked but virgin cancelled? I can’t carry on like this for another week?….

  • c_vanadium0509 Claire Newton (@c_vanadium0509) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia any updates on the outage in SE London? What is the eta for resolution?

  • johndonato84 Gianluigi Donato (@johndonato84) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Still shocking, just managed to speak to someone and I have to wait 10 days for a deadlock letter, but again no a single resolution upon my complaints! Fraudulent sales is very bad! Very upset! I’m sorry but this has been the worse customer service ever!

  • monique86237847 EbonyGoddess40 (@monique86237847) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia when they gonna fix the internet 4th time now no service and this time longer than 1 day I chose Virgin media for download speed but may go back to Sky less issues

  • acartoonheart Stacey (@acartoonheart) reported from Camberwell, England

    Every time Virgin Media says they are near fixing our internet outage, they push the fix time back another 12 hours 😩

  • ratandnob Rob and Nat (@ratandnob) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia do you think you could actually repair the broadband and TV fault in the BR2 area? It’s been off for nearly 24 hours now and the fix estimate keeps getting put back. I might hold off the my next direct debit….sound fair?

  • steve_race Steve Race (@steve_race) reported from Islington, England

    @vmrampulla @virginmedia @Hyperoptic Sadly had hyperoptic in my old flat, which was great and neither they nor G-Network are yet available on my street 🙄🙄🙄

  • sarahMwasHudson Sarah Martin (@sarahMwasHudson) reported from Bromley, England

    Nothing like working from home when you have @SkyUK …. Day 2 of no broadband and no phone …. Quality service …. Will switch to @virginmedia as soon as I can

  • agustin Agustin Pesciallo (@agustin) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Yes, down for two days and when i called yesterday they said it was gonna be fixed today and it is not. I work from home. I have already spent my @EE mobile iNet and I'm buying @bt_uk passes. How can I cancel the service and move to other provider?

  • acartoonheart Stacey (@acartoonheart) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia The update just says there is an outage in the area and that there won’t be a fix until tomorrow morning? That surely can’t be right?? I’m having to waste all my phone data just so I can do my job 😭

  • lghendry Laura Hendry (@lghendry) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia It’s still down.. when is this going to be fixed? Been over 24 hours now!

  • steve_race Steve Race (@steve_race) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I need it ASAP… I haven’t been asked when I want it installed; on Saturday last week your customer service person said she would expedite the process.

  • agustin Agustin Pesciallo (@agustin) reported from Camberwell, England

    .@virginmedia two days without internet and tv, could indicate what's the process to cancel the service?.

    @westgdh @virginmedia Is your discord still down?

  • ThatNobodyRyan Friendly neighbourhood nuisance, Ryan! (@ThatNobodyRyan) reported

    @GayNightStand Nah Virgin Media are absolute DOG ****. Remember last year when someone cut through their fibre optic wires and they said it'll be fixed by 5pm the same day and it took an entire weekend? They kept lying at when it was being fixed and I nearly missed a deadline.

  • eluude elliot (@eluude) reported

  • elleIouise elle (@elleIouise) reported

  • Paul23985759 Paul (@Paul23985759) reported

    @virginmedia Still not good. How do I get this looked at if I can’t call you? Your troubleshooting ends at reset the router, which I’ve done, still an unreliable signal. This isn’t what I paid for!

  • murrinholi Laura (@murrinholi) reported
