    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my broadband starting & stopping every 10 mins or so, packet loss too. I’m in the RG21 area but the website says no known issues!

  • stuartwhiley1 stuart whiley (@stuartwhiley1) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Would you please give me a phone number so that I can talk to a human being about a technical problem rather than wasting my life listening to a automated telephone

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

  • annabelouisa Annabel Z (@annabelouisa) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called 789 four times over the past two days and have been on hold for 20 minutes EACH time just to give you my PAC code 😭 talk about bad first impressions

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today supposed to have been reconnected. You have a problem, known about for days but arrive and say not today mate! I gotta go to Vodafone now for data. After 20 years, it’s like my wife left me...

  • draloksharma74 Alok Sharma (@draloksharma74) reported from Oakley, England

    @virginmedia we are without internet now for over a day. No text updates despite registering what can be done about such poor service

  • Johnty14 John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia next to useless support over the last 2 days trying to explain to your technical department what packet loss is! In the 40 mins it takes, the packet loss and speed has gone back to normal.

  • Gazimoff Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

  • Simmba88 Mechelle Penny (@Simmba88) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ceryswebb @virginmedia Their customer service is the absolute worst

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.

  • AndyOramEmax Andy Oram (@AndyOramEmax) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Great customer service!! NOT🤬. Returning customer and you told us it would work but doesn’t because we don’t have a face plate miss selling comes to mind!!

  • drewy__ Jez (@drewy__) reported from Whitchurch, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to contact via calling the number but I can’t get through as I’m a new customer wanting to join!

  • SparkleEyedGirl Nicola (@SparkleEyedGirl) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia I have a security issue with my router, I cannot login in or change password as somebody else is logged in. I have tried repeatedly over the last few days to contact you. We have 2 vulnerable adults in the house and need to sort this ASAP!

  • i96jms Jane (@i96jms) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

  • uppy33 Paul Upton (@uppy33) reported

    @virginmedia The robot at the end of the text could not help. It advised a human advisor would aim to be in touch within 4 hours. It ha now been 7 hours...

  • DMaineMan Jermaine Daw (@DMaineMan) reported

    @virginmedia I made an appointment for an engineer to rectify no TV service for 25 Jan. In light of lockdown is this still happening? I never got a confirmation email from customer service as they said I would? I’ve been on hold for 3 hours via phone, hence this tweet.

  • RicRoberts Ric Roberts (@RicRoberts) reported

    @virginmedia But during the week in the daytime the upload was so slow, couldn’t get video calls or screen sharing to work. As I say, it’s ok right now, so seems like a ‘capacity’ thing on your network. But still not great for me trying to work at home (which I always do!)

  • hooplingkev Kevin F Green (@hooplingkev) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia it’s bad enough informing me you’re putting prices up, then today TV/broadband or phone service not working which has cost me £16 for an event I booked and am unable to stream #poorservice #Moneygrabbing

  • CRISTIA41583607 Cristiana Costa (@CRISTIA41583607) reported

    @NatGraham21 @virginmedia This is interesting... I am not the only one having issues with @virginmedia

    @NatGraham21 @virginmedia @NatGraham21 Getting my complaint submitted today too.

  • AmandaBrockUK Amanda Brock (@AmandaBrockUK) reported

    @virginmedia It’s up now. Virgin goes down several times a week 40 minutes plus

  • TheStuArmstrong Stu Armstrong (@TheStuArmstrong) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried to speak to someone for 5 days and managed to get someone today and I have now been waiting 3 hours for an answer on my complaint. And I don’t believe that you cannot escalate this issue to someone who can help. I will give this 5 working days and then issue action
