  • 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. 🤬

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @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)

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • pSK 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...

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • PeterNooneComms 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

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

    @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

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Mashman9 Martin Ashberry (@Mashman9) reported

    @virginmedia Phoned and got cut off or call dropped. Tried to watch the film again, same problems after about 10 minutes, router restarting itself again. Can’t get through to a human, can’t watch the film. Are you any better #sky ?

  • Michael03633144 Mike Mike (@Michael03633144) reported

    @virginmedia Bit late John, didn't renew due to terrible customer service after warning you 11 months earlier but virgin couldn't be bothered to take it seriously after 14yrs as a customer. There are other suppliers you know..

  • EmmaSteele85 Emma Steele (@EmmaSteele85) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi is down every night from about 6pm…until about 8am- what is the deal on refunding where the service isn’t being provided?

  • mxsum98 ꜱʜɪᴋᴀᴍᴀʀᴜ (@mxsum98) reported

    @virginmedia your broadband is absolutely atrocious and so is your tech support, have so absolutely no clue about what they’re doing and offer no help at all!

  • HeyItsMystic heyitsalto | Fortnite Player (@HeyItsMystic) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry for the late replys a little help from the virgin community helped a lot just had to reset the Hub 3 and it’s back on but the thing is the booster is near my room and the signal is like 3 bars which is really concerning, I’m probably thinking because the house is really old

  • mycalltwo milky t (@mycalltwo) reported

    @virginmedia No, Instead Virgin, having acknowledged that I had tried to cancel, and being cut off after hours of waiting, have now charged a non payment fee and are trying to charge me for another month. Complained yet again and asked to go to CISAS. Have raised with BBC, MP etc. Shysters

  • randomacts28 Lisa (@randomacts28) reported

    @virginmedia since my tv box has been upgraded it’s very very slow. I can’t go into any apps and my recordings haven’t recorded and when I’ve clicked onto iPlayer it’s frozen. But apparently my app says everything is fine!!!

  • TimpMills Tam (@TimpMills) reported

    @virginmedia when I actually get the two refunds you've promised via my cisas complaint (supposedly sent 14/07) for issues ongoing since 11/2021, then I'll send your equipment back. Until then, I'm taking a leaf out of your book and ignoring all correspondence👌#worstproviderever

  • Ysgramor Fatih Cengiz (@Ysgramor) reported

    @words1982 @virginmedia @VanishaRanchhod I don't have an internet for 2 days. The reason is internet outage. My neighboor is using it. I'll go crazy.

  • DrFunkson AlDo (@DrFunkson) reported

    @virginmedia raise my bill to 51£ a month from £25 and then follow with an immediate outage all day! SW11 area London has been without internet all day. When will this be fixed @virginmedia? Totally useless service.
