  • indiointernet Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia, I can't get through when phoning customer services! Just an engaged tone. First time in 13 years. What's going on? Trying to find out more about a broadband issue in BN1 #brighton.

  • cjossy Joss (@cjossy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia @Virginmedia and @richardbranson need to improve you customer service and the access. It’s a joke. I feel sorry for you working for them.

  • leerobertson64 Lee Robertson FCSI FRSA (@leerobertson64) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Service keeps dropping and when on its really poor signal. Gone through all the usual trouble shooting steps as this happened a few weeks back so just did everything as per last time.

  • scotthortop Scott Hortop (@scotthortop) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @SimonHendy @virginmedia Get it on everything! What chance I get @virginmedia to help out or do I spend my whole Sunday night with the supermarkets?

  • indiointernet Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia If you read back, I already mentioned that I had done do. Hence the speed test that I performed. Look, I mean no disrespect but your service is a bit of a joke. I couldn't even get through on the phone! Engaged tone for 2hours. Thankfully, things seem ok today.

  • mejones2121 Michael Jones (@mejones2121) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia anyone thinking of joining these clowns think again. No customer service. Read all of the comments under their adverts. Their advertising should be done under the Trades Description Act as it's nowhere near good enough even with the faster speeds.

  • leerobertson64 Lee Robertson FCSI FRSA (@leerobertson64) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Sure although I do miss the days when companies who knew customers were having problems called them as opposed to the other way around. I’m a bit old fashioned that way I guess 🤔

  • ChloeWhytee Chloe⚪️ (@ChloeWhytee) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia hi, I’ve tried to contact via chat as I can’t call and I wait about an hour then give up, is there anyway someone can help me on here?

  • MikeHobden Mike Hobden (@MikeHobden) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to someone to confirm cancellation of an installation. I am getting nowhere online as I am not an existing customer. Can you help?

  • cjossy Joss (@cjossy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia As slow as your broadband speed

  • mejones2121 Michael Jones (@mejones2121) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 customer services is just 'turn it off and on again on automated message' Can't speak to anyone. May cancel direct debit if I don't get some satisfaction and action soon to resolve issues which appear common place complaints

  • scotthortop Scott Hortop (@scotthortop) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @SimonHendy @virginmedia thanks Simon. I was about to try your trick but the caption has disappeared! But never fear it will come back again and then I will try once more...

  • stevewestsussex Stevewestsussex (@stevewestsussex) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia I would like to speak to someone from customer service but your 03454541111 number isn’t working - how do I get thru

  • indiointernet Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Looks like @virginmedia is down in the #brighton BN1 area. Service status says back on lune at 22:45. great timing @virginmedia, nice one, really appreciate the inconvenience.

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I’m being forced to contact you this way as 150 has been engaged since I tried calling yesterday. Experiencing terrible upload speeds plus problems with TiVo. Please contact me #stayconnected !!

  • indiointernet Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Thank you @virginmedia? The outage fix will carry on for an additional 12 hours. You really know how to provide a great service, don't you? Well, not for me you don't. You've properly messed up my ability to have my work published tomorrow, thus, loss of business. #unimpressed

  • ATS_Spencer Spencer Clark (@ATS_Spencer) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Worthing BN114NN reset and rebooted router still nothing... Outage?

  • mejones2121 Michael Jones (@mejones2121) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia it's not a good sign when you're complaints dept have a set message saying all staff are busy and cut you off. How bad is the service provided! #virginbroadband #poorbroadband #virginmedia

  • Brown3P Peter Brownings (@Brown3P) reported from Plumpton Green, England

    @virginmedia can someone DM me please I’ve been on you chat service all day and getting nowhere

  • cjossy Joss (@cjossy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia A bloody bot!!! What happened to customer service. You guys are a joke @richardbranson

  • ScottMcCulloch_ Scott Mac (@ScottMcCulloch_) reported

    Why’ve you lowered the resolution on HD footy? @virginmedia @SkySports

  • Madmagsparky Sparky (@Madmagsparky) reported

    @virginmedia Hi would it be possible to have an agent call me in regards to getting a new router as the one I have is providing very poor signal and regularly drops out this has been an ongoing situation for months but yet I still have the same issues

  • melodiemonster Jen Melodie Jones (@melodiemonster) reported

    16 years with @virginmedia and it's like they don't care about their customers. 2.5 months after logging our issue, still not resolved. #disappointed

  • niallsalisbury Niall (@niallsalisbury) reported

    @virginmedia I have experienced today the worst customer service I have ever had. YOUR sales team promised us a credit when joining and during a 90 min phone call I spoke with 6 advisors who all agreed we needed the credit but wouldn’t apply it. Should have stayed with sky.

  • Robseep Rob (@Robseep) reported

    Just played my best match of DBD so far. Killer couldn't keep up with me. Soon as a teammate was hooked, I was swooping in to rescue them. All over the gens. Running to the gate and the internet went down. Outage in my area due to be fixed at 9:30pm. Thank you, Virgin Media.

  • Laura1902 Laura S (@Laura1902) reported

    @johnnywez01 @virginmedia Yeah. Latest update is that it'll be back at ten. This is the sixth time the time it'll be back has changed. I don't know why they didn't just say we'll have no service until Monday. I highly doubt it's going to be back soon

  • OOHAHHCLAR CLARE BRIDGER (@OOHAHHCLAR) reported

    @TakingNoNotice @virginmedia My Internet as been down since Saturday lunchtime, was going to be fixed for 6am that didn't happen. Time changed to 4pm then 6pm and still nothing 🤬

  • Banhammer72 Banhammer72 (@Banhammer72) reported

    I've been with @virginmedia for a number of years now, only ever had cause for complaint, a couple of times, it seems that back in March they changed my BB package and signed me to a contract for another (now) 18 months. [1/2]

  • SpecialCei SpecialCei (@SpecialCei) reported

    @virginmedia when I'm having to do it 2 days in a row it's getting frustrating, especially with all the previous issues I've had

  • TakingNoNotice Mickey Red Eyes (@TakingNoNotice) reported

    @virginmedia down again, second time in 10 minutes
