    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.

    @virginmedia awful disgusting customer service. 3 different agents 3 conflicting replies and told other were lies! What has happened to virgin? Supervisor was so rude. Didn't listen and kept interrupting me with robot replies. #terriblecustomerservice #badcustomerservice

  • nicktippett
    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

    @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.

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

    @virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day

    @virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

  • andy_s_battle
    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

  • 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

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

  • 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

  • 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.

  • WhiskyOneIce
    Mark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have chased and chased and spent 4 hours today on WhatsApp, no advise just can't help because I have outstanding bill....no the line isn't active because it was ported over to Community Fibre on 8th July

    Melina Kakoulidis (@MelinaKakoulid7) reported

    I think the @virginmedia customer services agents are like computers rather than human beings they are unable to have any conversations and comprehend on what is being said to them by a human being. They are working from a script and are unable to deviate from a script.

  • timlumley
    Tim (@timlumley) reported

    @virginmedia Getting fed up of my Broadband speed dropping. Others in the Gateford area of Worksop are saying the same. Kindly rectify whatever is wrong please. I do not pay you for slow speeds!

    @virginmedia How dare you give your crap partners O2 @O2 permission to set up a direct debit in my account without my permission? 😡 Next time you pull a stunt like that i will end my contract immediately and go else where, You thieving B******* 😡

    @virginmedia Leaving because of your ineptitude.. I should take legal action against you for the lack of service you’ve provided causing me and my wife a multitude of hassle cos we work from home .. jokers

  • Gbarch1
    megb (@Gbarch1) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia virgin media has been totally down since 28th May at 10pm. Many people in my area are affected. The potential fix date has been moved forward several times. The latest is 1st June at 12. They haven't given any explanation and their Whatsapp is suspended. Help!

  • AlfiePupper
    Alfie Pupper Esq 2 (@AlfiePupper) reported

    Hey @virginmedia how come the only part of your service that works consistently is billing? Posting on here because I have more chance of handcuffing a ghost than speaking to a human employee for help. Funny, cos when you wanted to sell your service we couldn’t get rid of you!

  • PeteUK7
    Pete 😷 #COVIDisAirborne (@PeteUK7) reported

    @virginmedia Good heavens. You think an AI response sending me back to the beginning of the bereavement process is in any way appropriate? It doesn't deal with my issue or answer the questions I asked. Find a human, a senior one at your place and do this properly.

    @LelJoyce I've got Virgin Media so have been watching coverage on the red button as the 360 coverage has been awful. They were on the studio talking while not covering the Sabalenka game, missing two points as she was serving for the match and then talked over the rest! Awful coverage.

    Keith Bambury (@Jackba2) reported

    Hey @virginmedia I live in Epping CM16. My services have been out for 2 days. You keep putting the fix date back, you now say Monday. Prove to me you know what the trouble is and that you are actually working on it. No excuses allowed about resource allocation.
