  • brighton_gay Christian 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 🖖🏼 (@brighton_gay) reported from Sompting, England

    @FuriousCoops It’s a major BT Open Reach outage which many non-Virgin Media companies piggyback their connectivity through.

  • garypleece Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Yep it’s still bad. Sometimes ok, a lot of the time not. Can someone look into it for me please.

  • MarkCherrie Mark Cherrie (@MarkCherrie) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Andy has now told me that the work was never rescheduled for today. This really isn’t very good.

  • garypleece Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia BN1 6FN - I’ve done the checks through your app and says no issue?

  • mattiem1976 Matt (@mattiem1976) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia It's fine I am going to cancel my contract as the offer to retain is disgraceful when compared to offer from others

  • michelle83mj Michelle83mj (@michelle83mj) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia This link doesn't work

  • garypleece Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia They couldn’t fix it last Saturday… It’s been better today, but still up and down at certain times. Def not fully fixed

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Did you read the message, I don't want to call or use whats app ad uve spent far too long doing this already. So I'll have to complain in writing then it seems. Shocking service yet again you do not read whta a customer is saying.

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia why would my Virgin internet go down at about 0045 every night ?

  • etinton Elliot Tinton (@etinton) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’d just like to cancel now please. Is there someone I can speak to to arrange?

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Yes it seems to be ok, but I don’t understand why it would be going down every day between midnight and 1am

  • wavell_mark Junior (@wavell_mark) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia how come after nearly 3 days is my internet not working?? How do I claim compensation for this??

  • etinton Elliot Tinton (@etinton) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    .@virginmedia so how do I get in touch, speak to someone, get issues resolved?? No response anywhere.

  • alternativeage Alternative Ageing (@alternativeage) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It’s happening way to regularly. I’ve lost a whole days work up to now, do I get compensation? Spent an hour yesterday morning sorting out yet more issues as a result of the outage over the w/e. 🥲

  • MarkCherrie Mark Cherrie (@MarkCherrie) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    So far I’ve had three promised appointments from @virginmedia but sadly three no shows. We’ve had intermittent broadband for about 6 months now and just can’t seem to get the problem fixed.

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Honestly I'd rather not as we have called so many times and get different call centres. Get cut off and can never speak to the otmriginal care team. Please can someone call us considering this is part of our compliant

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia With all due respect I can't face another encounter via the phone or WhatsApp, far too time consuming. Could you provide me with an actual complaints email address as the online submission doesn't work

  • garypleece Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia No it was the ‘general area fix’ (my engineer was cancelled by Virgin) which was then followed up with an email that said ‘everything is sorted’ which it was, until today when it was in and out again for hours. It’s ok now, but for how long?

  • palewis1 Phil (@palewis1) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia what a useless company after waiting a week from doing as was asked of you on reporting my fathers death I receive a letter telling me I done it wrong. I’m afraid I lost it on the phone today and when all is sorted we will be leaving you. Great bereavement service.

  • diverdan123 DanS (@diverdan123) reported

    Absolutely terrible customer service from @virginmedia called and spoke to advisor who then put me on mute during the call then left it on mute without speaking to me or answering any questions. Helped me make up my mind as contract is ending so time to move @bt_uk or @SkyUK

  • dcaldwell998 dcaldwell998 (@dcaldwell998) reported

    @virginmedia Affects wired as your **** router doesn’t reach the point of the house I’m in. And has just happened again. Fix it or admit you can’t and I should be let out of my contract.

  • gaungoo45 ShabGaungoo45 (@gaungoo45) reported

    @virginmedia It’s working today. But it’s been really slow

  • pepperbint Kate McKinnon (@pepperbint) reported

    @virginmedia Tried all this. Still can’t get through to a real person just keep getting recorded messages or unhelpful texts. Please reply Yes or No to whether we can expect full service to be restored by tomorrow morning.

  • Kevin_V_Ram KVR 🇲🇺 (@Kevin_V_Ram) reported

    @virginmedia I would prefer you to fix my non-existent broadband connection atm rather than these useless quizzes… but hey… you do you… and I will leave when my contract is up!
