    @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Dear Virgin Media, unlawful pretending fraudulent callers keep ringing us about a nonsense router signal issue and hacked IP network? Can you please implement preventative measures to protect vulnerable community members living in the UK. Thx

    @virginmedia less than a week back with you and the tv and internet keep dropping, yet customer services will monitor the situation rather than help, won’t be staying! Waste of time provider

    @virginmedia on a 200mbps download package and I’m averaging 9mbps this morning! I understand there might be heavier traffic at the moment, but we can’t do any work from home with such poor service!! #stayconnected I would if I could!!

    Michelle Rey (@JahNiyamen) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Grrrrrrr! So frustrating, I've had a new broadband hub for a month or so now because of issues with WiFi and now have spent the best part of my morning sorting WiFi issues, and now still no WiFi...... I've got better things to do. #Annoying

  • markaugustus99

    @virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

  • DiscoEquinox
    Equinox Disco (@DiscoEquinox) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia @stephen_twitt Good luck calling that customer service number. @virginmedia should try calling themselves

  • sandeeptakhar9

    @virginmedia we've lost broadband. Reset the router numerous times but no success. Is there an outage?

  • ChantelleEJ
    Chantelle (@ChantelleEJ) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Thanks KT. Unfortunately it’s still not working and I have tried the online service checker and the number, it says no faults. Is the internet problem linked to the on demand problem? I’ve been out at work for 12 hours so it’s been like this all day :(

  • leemcrae76
    Lee McRae (@leemcrae76) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

    @Benleo @virginmedia My experience - engineer comes in to fix box. Tells me to put 'dog away!' I say 'no, she won't come into the lounge or bother you' 'Tea, coffee?' I say 'No' 'Water, fruit juice?' I add 'Fruit, fruit' he says I return with apple & banana He grabs both & puts them in his bag 🤨😖

  • AndyFormUK
    Andy Form (@AndyFormUK) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia We have an issue that’s been going on for 12months. As soon as my wife uses her laptop everything else in the house stop working, Xbox, streaming, even phones. I have 350 GB package and was told I need to upgrade my package to the top one to “fix” the issue. 10 plus calls, hours on hold been past from different departments, engineer visits that don’t turn up and engineers that turn up and say there is a issue with it and someone will be touch when it’s fixed. £40 goodwill I was offered and a call 2 months ago, I’ve even up trying.

  • Liver4breakfast
    Martin Moore (@Liver4breakfast) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia the irony. The repair date for the TV and intermittent internet problems has been moved, after 2 days of the same problem. Try to send Virginmedia a DM "There is a problem connecting with the server".. That's because of an intermittent internet problem that I have.

  • hughwjames
    Hugh James (@hughwjames) reported

    @Benleo I think I had a situation with Virgin media where they called me 5 times back to back. Their customer service is not British.

  • CJD39

    @virginmedia quite possibly the worst customer service EVER. I have been a loyal customer for years! Absolutely disgraceful

    @virginmedia no Internet for 2 days saying won't be fixed until Friday, I thought southern water was the worst, you've proved me wrong.

    @Benleo Virgin Media internet doesnt work at all I have had 5 engineer visits and they keep moving my router to different places around the house there are wires everywhere and one of the engineers even broke my wardrobe while fitting the connection cable

    I have released all audio tapes of my many calls since April 30 and will be collating them for the nation to see how @virginmedia treat their customers and breach consumer law.
