Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Though I am dyslexic I have painstakingly done this on multiple devices and have photos to show It - not posting them publicly but it does not recognise that password 😢 A search on line suggests the problem is not unique. I have one hour to call the manufacturer if you advice.

Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but I’ve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.
-
Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported from Blackheath, EnglandYour website for checking status is not loading. Can you verify if there are known issues with broadband in the se3 area. Thanks @virginmedia
-
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??
-
#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?
-
Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia I think you will have to agree this is an unacceptably long time for the repair as it’s already been going on for days?? “There's a TV issue in xxx. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. We hope to fix this by 14 March at 16:00”

travelling Adam (@TravellingAdam) reported from Blackheath, EnglandVirgin why do I keep losing my mobile network? @virginmedia (been trying to post this since 11am lol) as I have virgin broadband as well. 😤
-

DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 4/ I work from home so asked what can I do in the meantime? No help given. I asked to speak to a supervisor. Waited 15 mins to speak to Supervisor ( 45 mins total already spent on phone)..
-
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 🙏🏻
-
Tony Kinson (@mrkinski) reported from Bexleyheath, EnglandAfter the long outage overnight, @virginmedia was back online but is now down again. Any chance of you fixing it before we all need our connection for work in the morning? Asking for all your disgruntled customers. #VirginMediaDown
-
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.
-
Chris 🏳️🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, EnglandCalled 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.
-
Leigh Booker 🐈⬛ 3.5% #FBPE #FBPPR #GTTO (@leighbooker) reported from Welling, England@virginmedia Please explain why your Virgin checker site was down too. Disgraceful
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 9/ speak but he kept interrupting me. He had no help for me for having no internet for 6 days. He kept sighing and refused to put me through to anyone who could offer anymore help.
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandListening to the broadband presentation on @itvMLshow with some irony. I pay @virginmedia £79/month for broadband/phone & TV. BB/TV failed in November, after many calls they say it will be fixed in March 2023 😬 Compensation is only calculated when service is restored 😪 Fair?

-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@virginmedia Seems fair comment-they aren't sensible! Googled "how effective making complaints to @virginmedia is" and came up with some very negative feedback culminating in: "customer feedback AND regulatory data suggest their handling of complaints is often seen as inadequate" Oh dear🙁
-
Dom Kane (@ClearlyOptional) reported@virginmedia - We pay a premium for your services and time and time again your service is down. thats us without access to a baby monitor, without access to baby health monitor - absolutely ridiculous. think it’s time for a change
-
Jason Caine Smith (@jasoncainesmith) reported@VirginMedia No response on X or WhatsApp after hours. Cannot get through by phone due to your system issue. This has left an elderly customer without TV all day. Completely unacceptable. If I don’t get a response shortly I will be making a formal complaint.
-
Just Be Retro (@JustBeRetro) reported@virginmedia my virgin TV has not worked since 16th March the problem was identified on 17th March Why has it not been fixed
-
Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported@virginmedia are you gaslighting me. 6 days without broadband or TV and you still haven’t done anything to resolve the issue. I live in a city so it’s not as if I’m in the middle of nowhere making it difficult for you to resolve the issue
