    @virginmedia Just when I thought you'd fixed it, it goes wrong.....was working fine during the day. Busy times your service is shocking. I've now got the same message.... insufficient bandwidth.

    @MartinDaubney @virginmedia I've heard negative stories.about them downhere. Again around service. Dread to think what will happen with Flybe, if Virgin supply shoddy service.

    @virginmedia As per many comments in this thread I have suffered at the hands of terrible VM customer service. Employees don’t seem to have the tools to do a decent job. So many pillars & posts to be passed between. VM ok when it works but if you need help...

    @virginmedia Follow me and I will send you my account number by DM. Someone just needs to look at the call notes and text notes to determine my complaint. I’ve already used web chat.

    @virginmedia Hi John apparently they are unable to help I now need to contact the oomph team !! No contact details , joke

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    It would appear that @virginmedia broadband is down across the SW until at least midday. Not that you’d know from VM. Have had to glean this from internet searches & Facebook. Usual poor VM customer service.

    @virginmedia All sorted, went down for about 4 hours in total yesterday then came back up.

  • Alydinsdale

    @virginmedia no broadband for 18 hours and told won't be fixed until 12.9.19 refund for loss of service #Exeter

    @virginmedia total dismay , terrible service, routers constantly fail . Call CS and told you have been customer over 15 years but best to go to @sky for a better price !!

    @Yoshi107422871 @virginmedia Yes they say they will raise a complaint but nothing comes of it, no call or e-mail followup

    @virginmedia Wow, £96 a month full package! Never even asked for it, and all phone numbers unavailable!!! #Swindlers

  • cherylblackmini
    Cheryl 💇 (@cherylblackmini) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia I had my WiFi and phone installed back in June , the box outside my house was broken so your engineer connected to my next door neighbour, and was told it would only be for a week , I have phoned numerous times and just get ignored . Atrocious service!

  • AJMerron_writes
    AJ Merron (@AJMerron_writes) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there’s some form of outage on the network as a whole. I can’t get any clear answers from the @TravelodgeUK Wi-Fi help line. The network just seems to be refusing to connect logged in devices. I’m here for one night and requested money back for Wi-Fi to no avail.

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    @virginmedia Well that’s pretty meaningless. Broadband down in Exeter & other parts of Devon. When is service expected to be restored? Why haven’t you put a message on your website? This is impacting my ability to work at home.

  • LizzyLoly
    Liz Loly (@LizzyLoly) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get hold of someone to establish why I cannot login to my account online and why I have been overcharged. Despite being told several times that someone would get back to me in 24 hours it never seems to happen. Please advise how I can reach you.

    Helen Rimmer @thekindbraveleader.bsky.social (@melon_h) reported

    We now have a @virginmedia engineer booked but not until Tuesday, cue loss of earnings, money spent on extra data and petrol to go to my parents to try and use internet. Issue was definitely local area but now been told need engineer. 5 days after first went off.

  • _Alfista

    @ArrEssVeeTwin @jen_moxon @virginmedia many years ago at previous address I had to take annual leave to call Virgin customer services during UK office hours, when I knew it was UK call centre answering, as the foreign one never logged a single call so had to start all over each time.

  • Alissa_SarahLou
    Alissa (@Alissa_SarahLou) reported

    @virginmedia When are you going to issue a formal statement on the nationwide outage. Cm16 area been out since last Thursday, but for others I can see it's been a lot longer. Do right by your customers and issue a statement.

  • DrBaalt
    ♛ 𝔹𝕒𝕒𝕝𝕥 (@DrBaalt) reported

    @footballontnt What’s the deal with TNT Sports and Virgin media and the HBO app. Signed up. But the app doesn’t allow access. And for that reason I’ll be gone in 30 days. This time forever. Such a ridiculous solution. Doesn’t work. So it’s gone and so is my business. Forever.

  • Vicky51308928
    Vicky 💖 (@Vicky51308928) reported

    @virginmedia your internet causing my son to have huge meltdowns. I am paying for a service that is incompetent, unreliable and damaging to my son due to his very severe condition. Last month your staff called my sons disability a ‘mental breakdown’- not acceptable

  • nbevans
    Nathan B. Evans (@nbevans) reported

    @BenZaranko This is just how network operators roll now in hyper-consumption economies I saw a Reddit thread the other day where one guy had ended up paying Virgin Media £130/month just for basic cable broadband. Just because he hadn't challenged any of the price increases for 3 years.

  • CryptoPoli
    Poli 🤌 (@CryptoPoli) reported

    @virginmedia It's now almost 1 full month worth of a total loss of internet service and another failed engineer visit. This is completely unacceptable, I can't get any answers from your customer service team on when this will be resolved and your engineers never call!!! @virginmedia

  • cornynthecob
    Suzanne Cornyn (@cornynthecob) reported

    @LelJoyce I've got Virgin Media so have been watching coverage on the red button as the 360 coverage has been awful. They were on the studio talking while not covering the Sabalenka game, missing two points as she was serving for the match and then talked over the rest! Awful coverage.

    @rpd_pacer @virginmedia @virginmedia customer service is woeful. With them since it was Telewest. Sky are much better and have got good offers on at the moment. Only time they were any good was after a death in the family when they weren't needed anymore! Good luck.
