    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

    @virginmedia What is the point I would like to speak to a human being shocking service Definitely will not be staying with you 4 weeks if not more with no information regarding this matter Not consideration for others

    Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

  • AdieJAMster
    Adie Hughes (@AdieJAMster) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia

    @virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • BeardPunk
    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    Not only did I have to go out to watch the football because Sky Sports doesn’t work BBC has gone down so can’t even watch MOTD thanks @virginmedia

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

  • nealesj
    Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England

    It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Think we need to call an engineer out anyways, before the outage I was only getting 600mbps max when my package is the 1Gig.

  • k1El_w
    Kiel (@k1El_w) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @YodelOnline your ability to deliver equipment is shocking!!! The customer service you provide is even worse!!!

  • JazbaEnt
    Jazba Entertainment (@JazbaEnt) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia business installation, been given 6 dates since 17th January. 4 no show or wrong booked, 2 attendance but not equipped to extend installation from 1sf floor to 2nd. even billed for a service which is not even installed yet. Nightmare #virginmedia #broadband

  • RobinB1971
    Robin 🤘🏻 (@RobinB1971) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia signed up for your new broadband and still waiting for the stuff to arrive. Apparently parcel is still at @YodelOnline main hub. This is the SECOND day I've cancelled things and waited for it to arrive as yet to no avail. WTF is going on!?! 🤬

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • iamscorchy
    iamscorchy (@iamscorchy) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Experiencing issues in your area there is a technician in the area but still doesn't explain why my routers fans go really loud and disconnected from everything I have to keep resetting to get it back to normal then on top get "issues in my area" like always

  • beffycuk
    𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚑 (@beffycuk) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?

  • chrispsaras
    Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?

  • Yolandae
    BeKind (@Yolandae) reported

    @virginmedia I did, but it’s still not working. The estimated repair time has been changed numerous times, yet the issue remains unresolved.

  • CarryOnGemma
    CarryOnGemma (@CarryOnGemma) reported

    What now? @VirginMedia? I have tried to sign into my account to claim the reimbursement from not having the products you charge from dad. He should be getting a hefty rebate. Yet, you now can't sign me into the account because it's not connected to O2. So I tried that and you've blocked me because I have used the email to sign in too much. The email that is connected to the account. Then the phone number too much. If you don't fix this before I call you in the next twenty-four hours I'll take this to the courts which you have your bots saying people can't. Get me to let me sign in.

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    Genuinely, if there's a more incompetent company in the UK than @virginmedia, I'd be amazed. How a company can treat customers so abysmally and continue to operate is beyond me. No wonder they lock us into two-year contracts. 🤬 @MartinSLewis - I hope you've got a file open on Virgin Media.

  • TheWonderChildd
    Daniel (@TheWonderChildd) reported

    @virginmedia wanna explain my bill hike this month? And the lack of money back from the outage I had?

  • kellyj70
    Kelly Turner (@kellyj70) reported

    @virginmedia My son is job hunting and needs the internet. What with issues with you taking over my son’s Netflix account and giving us ads, we’ve had several times where we have lost services. Only renewed a few weeks ago! Wish I’d gone to Sky.

  • Pass_Move
    WATCHING THE GAME (@Pass_Move) reported

    @virginmedia This company is a complete and utter shambles. Still no Wi-Fi, still no broadband, still no TV, still no one answering phones. No basic information from the company with the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

  • LaraMitchard
    Lara Mitchard (@LaraMitchard) reported

    @virginmedia And what’s the estimated fix time?

  • sadiejane29
    Sadie~Jane (@sadiejane29) reported

    @virginmedia I was meant to get a call back over 2 weeks ago from Maddie. Still waiting 🤔 Clearly saw the state of the complain & decided you couldn't be bothered. Every time my mum has rang, you have documented it as something completely different. Terrible service really 😑

  • oldpoyntz
    MrsM 💙 (@oldpoyntz) reported

    @PeterBakerMcfc @virginmedia Internet is back now. No one touched anything and it goes off. Moving to Community Fibre once this contract is up. I can't keep having these issues & paying through the nose. At least we'll be able to rotate through the apps as and when needed.

  • fergal_hickey
    Fergal Hickey (@fergal_hickey) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Shocking Virgin Media Mobile. Can’t receive calls from Vodafone numbers for 6wks now. Now told it’s a widespread problem after being fobbed off for a month. Not good enough - VM should have been honest with subscribers and advised them but chose deceit instead
