    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, DAY 5 without Internet connection here and I haven’t received any update from you. Can you PLEASE make some clarity on what is going on and when we can expect this to be fixed? Surely you should have sent a technician to check on us by now… Absolutely awful.

  • U2Gorilla
    Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

  • IstvanOFatyol
    Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Since w/c 22Aug my wife and I continuously keep checking the service status which gets updated and deadline pushed back. Nobody with virgin has broadband or TV for over 3 weeks now without explanation or a decent update

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Oh, they did let me cancel, but I had to answer about 3 “last question”s before they proceeded 5 minute response time on chat, took me nearly two hours, after the 4 hours it took to connect an agent. We could get a contract with a credit check in 5 minutes.

  • plummerkevin1
    Kevin Plummer (@plummerkevin1) reported from Richmond, England

    @martynenglish2 @virginmedia They have a catastrophic reputation around here ... speeds great in theory but always down, slow and out of order as I see from local shops.

  • morish1
    maureen robert (@morish1) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, it’s past 12pm and we’re still without any Internet connection (and getting desperate now). I’d like to stress that this isn’t an intermittent signal issue but a total loss of service as we’ve been having no Internet connection AT ALL since last Friday. HELP PLEASE!

  • judge_ravinder
    Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia Why is the connection between the internet and tv constantly going having to reboot modem all the time. Sick of this issue as not once in a while happening for a month on & off, more everyday in the last two weeks. This is not the service I expect for how much I pay.

  • SMillbery
    Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I’ve done all these. Very frustrating as I only had a new super hub and cabling to house installed 2 weeks ago. Never had such intermittent service in 20 years of using virgin.

  • Fatty_Koo91
    Bhaven Dusara (@Fatty_Koo91) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    How can it be called Virgin Media when it goes down so much??? #VirginMediaDown

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Can you just send a technician over to us? I’d assume you’d prioritise a customer that has been left with no Internet for 5 days? I’m not going to post the issue on an online forum, I’m asking you to provide support please.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

  • muloongo
    Muloongo Muchelemba (@muloongo) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Why is the broadband service down today?! It’s been patchy all week. For the price we are paying every month, we expect better than this… #virginmedia

  • U2Gorilla
    Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Requested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM

  • stephen_j_moran
    Stephen Moran (@stephen_j_moran) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    And another day has gone by with no landline service from #virginmedia in this part of Harrow HA1 and still the same recorded message saying they've found the problem and are working on it. @virginmedia

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @atnori_ @virginmedia Yep, experienced just recently :D I am an extremely patient person… I properly lost it today 🙃 At least the damn thing is cancelled though.

  • Johnlumb67
    John lumb (@Johnlumb67) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Thanks do you have a number that will A: Answer the call B: Answer within 1 week. C: Actually understand my problem. I have had bad experiences on the phone with VM

  • jtdavies
    John T Davies 💙🇺🇦💛 (@jtdavies) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia We had issues last month, a nice engineer came (Mohamed) and said it was a local problem. I reported it on the phone again on Tuesday (Aqeelah), she said there are local problems (again). I fed up wit this, it’s been a week of impossible internet, day and night!

    @andyburnham You might like to add VIRGINMEDIA to your list of organisations that do everything they can to prevent customers ending contracts. They are THE WORST.

  • TruthAsylum121
    (Re)Search & Destroy (@TruthAsylum121) reported

    THREAD 9 — COMMUNITY CALLING AND THE MONEY BEHIND THE DEVICES The Community Calling programme gives us another important part of the story. Virgin Media O2 and Hubbub have worked together to collect and redistribute unwanted smartphones. Migrant Help has been one of the organisations receiving devices for asylum seekers and refugees. Then there is the Tech Lending Community Fund. The first phase was worth £400,000 and supported charity partners to establish tablet-lending hubs. The projects included organisations such as Thames Reach, the Kurdish and Middle Eastern Women’s Organisation, Willowacre Trust, Refuge and Leeds Refugee Forum, with tablets and O2 data being made available through the programme. In Swansea, around 700 donated phones were distributed through a Community Calling project, with O2 providing 12 months of free data, calls and texts. Swansea Asylum Seekers Support made 127 referrals to the scheme in 2021. Its records also show £8,175 spent on phone top-ups, covering 1,160 £10 top-ups. There was another £2,400 provided by Hay Brecon Talgarth Sanctuary for Refugees. The funding came through organisations including the Moondance Foundation, Comic Relief/SCVS Emergency Fund and Welsh Government/SCVS Integration Care Fund. This is where the investigation starts moving beyond technology companies. There is philanthropic money. There is council money. There is Government money. There is corporate money. And there are charities distributing the resulting technology.

    It is the truth. Virgin subscription from £85 to £254 a month because contract expired and they’ll never contact you. This is affecting millions of people @virginmedia can you explain this bullshit?

    @vdaybabygirl85 @rayquannnnnnn @virginmedia Keeps dropping out? Which VM Hub do you have? I've just got upgraded free from the hub 3 to hub 5 and so far haven't had any drop outs. Give the customer services a call and ask for an engineer (free) and when they come, it's ifs the hub 3, they'll change it for free.

  • finn33

    @virginmedia I’ve done the trouble shooting steps. You’ve checked that I’ve paid my bills. Hence the comment about the engineer. I don’t need to give you any other details.
