  • 1SLToo
    Andy (@1SLToo) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    Merry Christmas to all at @virginmedia who have left all of us in WD3 area with no TV or Internet for over a week (predicted) and probably longer over the entire festive period, moving to sky in the new year due to your continuing rubbish service and customer service

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

    @virginmedia any chance of a stable service?!?

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia once again there is no connection between our box and the hub after a couple of days with no problems. Also why did the engineer I had booked for Thursday morning not turn up? 😡

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • andrewlwood
    Andrew Wood (@andrewlwood) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia This problem is still here; internet has been sporadic all day, dropping out for several minutes at a time. You are not reporting any issues on your coverage tracker however.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Yes I did try to call but couldn’t get hold of anyone after a 20 min wait. As you can see from the screenshot above in previous tweet, every appointment I make gets cancelled. Are you able to do something about this? Any help would be much appreciated

  • tobygilles
    🎤Toby Gilles🎤 (@tobygilles) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia Will it be a quick fix?

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

    @virginmedia It is incredible, what you're doing is just pushing the date on your service page to one week to another. We don't have Internet for two months now! What are your engineers doing? I am going to cancel your contract and I will go with an better provider. @virginmedia #virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

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

    @Spongette1982 @virginmedia I agree especially when this issue has been ongoing and still not resolved.

  • 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.

  • MrsJerryTweets
    SusannJerry (@MrsJerryTweets) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia broadband down since 7am today and intermittent for a week. Your customer phone line cuts off. You are adding 10% to my monthly bill for an appalling Service. What is the excuse?

  • Stefan_baisden
    Baisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedialife @virginmedia The worst service from any company I have ever used. I would like to be removed from your business accounts.

  • 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.

  • paulhelpspeople
    Paul Smith (@paulhelpspeople) reported from Twickenham, England

    When you cancel services with a company, because you are fed up with crazy price increases, but the next day get some ultra pushy sales guy from an overseas office try to argue they can do it better, when will they ever learn, no means no. @virginmedia you are the absolute worst!

  • ImaginaryCard
    MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia The service status always says its fine but the Internet goes down at this time every single night. #virginmediadown

  • Stefan_baisden
    Baisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Southall, England

    @virginmedia now onto the second week of no contact. No help and no communication. Imagine trying to call someone at this billion dollar company just to open a business account. And you can’t even get through for 14 days. It’s pathetic. This 02 merger has finished them.

  • BelfastBooks
    Belfast Books (@BelfastBooks) reported

    @TrevorM63275988 Having dealt with Virgin Media on behalf of clients for more than 20 years, I can say their customer service has changed dramatically. They now appear to rely heavily on contact deflection, a practice where customers are repeatedly directed towards web chat, FAQs and automated systems instead of being able to speak to a human adviser. While contact deflection is intended to reduce support costs, my experience is that it has reached the point where accessing a person has become unnecessarily difficult. I'll I'll be raising it with Ofcom under the complaint they have against them.

  • Nesphalim
    🐰 🦄 Kimberly 🦄 🐰 (@Nesphalim) reported

    @BBCNews This doesn't surprise me. Virgin Media treat their customers horrendously.

  • EpicLastSong
    E i l i s h (@EpicLastSong) reported

    @virginmedia It's quite pointless even getting in touch with you, you closed my complaint when I questioned whether you're going to fix the pricing that you agreed was wrong. If you want to help the complaint reference is on the image attached.

  • Ailsa56202286
    Ailsa (@Ailsa56202286) reported

    (Part 4/4) Meanwhile, I was receiving constant calls demanding payment and threatening late payment charges. No customer should have to fight this hard just to leave a broadband contract. SHAME ON YOU, @VirginMedia.

  • DiscooDave1969
    Disco Dave (@DiscooDave1969) reported

    @BBCNews @virginmedia I am disappointed the fine is not higher. Let this be a warning to anyone thinking of moving to them. They will offer a great 12 month deal and then double the price in year 2 and making it extremely possible to cancel.

  • grahamhill1
    Graham Hill (@grahamhill1) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media were terrible to deal with when I had a contract with them, terrible customer service up until I quit - only then did I get to talk to someone in charge. I still quit and signed up to @sky

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @MartinSLewis By far the worst company I've had the misfortune of dealing with in recent years. If Ofcom truly had any teeth, it'd ban Virgin Media from operating in our telecoms sector. A truly dreadful company.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @aidan_codtello @virginmedia Good luck! When the service works at @virginmedia it's great-but when there's a problem you're pretty much on your own with a fanciful bunch of stories until you can finally get an engineer to pitch up. I always think that how they handle a problem is the measure of a company...

  • kimmie350
    kim milner (@kimmie350) reported

    @jennyk1977 @SilverstoneUK I missed you on the tv Jenny but trying to watch it on virgin media as a nightmare. Didn’t see the national anthem or martins grid walk either as the channel changed to the damn cricket!!! Finally got the race to play but I wasn’t quick enough to spot you sorry.

    @virginmedia im leaving you lot, still not sorted the signal issue in my area. Its been nearly a week of this! poor!
