    Peter Noone 🇪🇺🇮🇪 (@PeterNooneComms) reported from Worthing, England

    Paid @virginmedia £25.95 to watch #JoshuaPulev and the picture is unwatchable. Engineer fix estimate of 11.20pm for an event that starts at 10pm is no use to anyone. #Iwantmymoneyback

    @virginmedia I have no tv service what’s going on this is 3 nights running now that the picture has all broken up and suddenly it won’t even load the channels I’m paying £130 for this it’s not good enough

  • Mick1082
    Mike smith (@Mick1082) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Eventually yes but had to go though the sales team first I get with the COVID situation it’s more tricky than normal but the 150 line though is appalling to be cut off after waiting spending nearly two hours is really poor service guys the people I did speak to were very helpful

    @virginmedia Hi, can you elaborate on why Brighton fibre was so horrifically terrible today? In 8 hours I got 3 hours work done....

    Pete Hobson (@pSK) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    You bunch of cheap *** fraudsters @virginmedia . Invest in your infrastructure. Invest in your tech support. You really need a government watchdog don't you. You clearly can't be trusted to be a private company

  • bobthe_dolphin
    Bob the 🐬 (@bobthe_dolphin) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I can't even login to my account...

  • pSK
    Pete Hobson (@pSK) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    And also @virginmedia if you reply to me with one more bot. I'm going to Dedicate every free hour I have for the next month to writing a fleet of bots to get people to leave your sucky service. So stick that up your bots.

    @Ben76593214 @virginmedia Where are you getting these “rumours” or are you making it up? Granted Virgin are unhelpful in communicating & keep moving the resolution time (but not until it’s almost reached)

  • fordie
    Mark Ford (@fordie) reported from West Worthing, England

    Anyone else in BN12 having broadband issues on @virginmedia?

  • biconic__
    Alex 💫 (@biconic__) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @conniebliff @virginmedia Virgin media have been ******* us around for over a month and left us with no internet, truly the worst customer experience I have ever had for anything by a long way

  • Shannonmanuel_
    shannon (@Shannonmanuel_) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia been 2 days and our WiFi still not working ! Tried resetting and turning on and off again !! Pls help , we are students who neeeeeeed WiFi

  • pSK
    Pete Hobson (@pSK) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    My god @virginmedia sort it out!! The whole streets been complaining for months. Loads have left your service now. You've replaced the junction box. What you gonna do next, waggle a squirrel and see if that fixes it?

  • biconic__
    Alex 💫 (@biconic__) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia We’ve spent probably the best part of a full day on the phone to your ‘customer service’ staff over the last month. Appalling service.

  • rafthemaster
    Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia are you able to check on a fault by location for me. I don’t have access to the VM account but the last I heard was it should of been resolved by 10am today and it’s still down, account holder won’t be available for hours to check

  • josie_milligan
    josie🗽 (@josie_milligan) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia our TV and Internet have been out since 12, fix been pushed back twice to tomorrow now. No good enough for 100 quid a month.

  • CharlesB2T
    Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia I only found this out by talking to the engineers working at getting us all attached again, down our road, but if we don't know this, it looks as though it is your equipment which is at fault. To be fully kept up to speed with real info, will stop nightmare thoughts from growing.

  • SteveAfterlight
    Steve Love (@SteveAfterlight) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia We tried valiantly. After being let down again on the basics of simply getting us our equipment and getting us online we did eventually manage to speak to someone. Thankfully we managed to cancel and go back to Sky and never need to deal with Virgin Media ever again!

  • josie_milligan
    josie🗽 (@josie_milligan) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia fix has been pushed back to tomorrow now. Can't get through to a human on your phone number. Utter joke especially when so many have to work from home at the moment like my partner. 🤬

  • CharlesB2T
    Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia A problem, which I'd like you to address, is that we don't know what the problem is. Last time this happened in October it turned out that the waterworks people had dug through 15 cables and it all had to be reattached.

  • Mick1082
    Mike smith (@Mick1082) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia what’s happening with the tv service in the BN2 area?of Brighton it’s been fine all day and now I’m getting a broken up picture the same thing happened at the same time last night too

    @virginmedia I am now out of contract, if I cancel it how long long will it be before I can rejoin as a new customer ?

  • UrbexTroll
    urbexing (@UrbexTroll) reported

    Feels so good to cancel the direct debit for virgin media Ireland and never be a customer again. People if we all cancel our direct debit’s they will have to reduce their prices @VirginMediaIE #costofliving #costoflivingpayment #recession2022

  • gashead
    Alistair 🏴‍☠️ Burns (@gashead) reported from Hatfield, England

    Used to tell my colleagues on @virginmedia to switch to @BT to overcome reliability issues. Moved house and little choice to pick Virgin. No internet or TV for 7 days, fix due by 1pm today. Queried at 1.30pm and 6.30pm, assured it would be today, told to relax. Frankie says BS.

  • Megameak
    John Meakins (@Megameak) reported

    @virginmedia are there any issues reported for NN5? Been a week of faulty Internet and even none at all! It's Friday night and I have had no Internet all day. Any update would be great, it's annoying to be told there are no faults on my connection when there really is.

  • misspiggyx101x
    misspiggy101 (@misspiggyx101x) reported

    @virginmedia I spoke to them, my problem was that it took 5 hours of messages to get nowhere! Was offered a deal then wasnt allowed to actually have it?? Honestly gobsmacked!

  • xSmithy1980x
    x Smithy x (@xSmithy1980x) reported

    @virginmedia What?? Yes total loss. No internet and no tv. May have service during day but I’m at work then so no use to me , it’s not just a slight drop out. Can’t even load web on my phone

  • LOLOPHONEIQ
    Vorix (@LOLOPHONEIQ) reported

    @virginmedia It isn't just slow WiFi speeds, it's the fact it keeps dropping off and disconnecting form things making everything that needs the Internet unusable

  • Laps72
    Laps (@Laps72) reported

    @virginmedia Your WhatsApp chat service is ridiculous! I’ve got a simple question and I’m left ‘hanging on’ whilst an agent is found. Shocking customer service
