  • C_CWarrender Claire Warrender (@C_CWarrender) reported from Methil, Scotland

    @fionalmorrison @virginmedia Twice! We need to work out how to work round a break in service before we rage quit!

  • gporter1983 Gary Porter (@gporter1983) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @VirginMember @stephenp6255 @virginmedia Yeah, thanks, it appeared on the status page that there was an issue, but there must a bigger issue as 2nite it will go down again no doubt

  • JulieMcIntosh1 Julie McIntosh (@JulieMcIntosh1) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yeah, see if you were worried about customer service you would find out what has happened and someone would call me with details. But no, I have to call, get through your monstrous IVR and sit on hold being told you’re very busy. I wonder why.......

  • Sm1987 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Shaun 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Sm1987) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia sent a message on here on Wednesday and still had no response from anyone. Great service as always

  • gporter1983 Gary Porter (@gporter1983) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia internet down again! This is happening every day, it's a joke.

  • doubledutch13 John van Dieken (@doubledutch13) reported from Methil, Scotland

    @virginmedia No I can’t get through. Followed online guidance. The router is dropping out. Reset and rebooted numerous times. Simple fix send out a replacement??

  • csd1234 conradsutherlanddunn (@csd1234) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia Not got a clue, they didn’t say, when we check online it says there are no known issues but speaking to an advisor yesterday they said that there was definitely a fault and they would get an engineer out ASAP

  • csd1234 conradsutherlanddunn (@csd1234) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia Still not fixed, a call has been logged to get someone out to fix it but it hasn’t happened yet

  • gporter1983 Gary Porter (@gporter1983) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia Still no reply from the initial text message I sent yesterday and my internet is currently off again and status page says no issues, this is getting beyond a joke! I'm trying to do school work with my kids, this is very frustrating

  • fionalmorrison Fiona Morrison (@fionalmorrison) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @ThirdSectorLab @virginmedia I had a similar frustrating experience with Virgin Media a couple of weeks ago. I was on a loop of nonsense via text messages for over a week. I resorted to calling again and selecting the option “thinking of leaving”, 10 mins later - problem solved. Terrible customer service.

  • RaymondoMurray1 Raymond Murray (@RaymondoMurray1) reported from Dysart, Scotland

    I’m having real issues with my @virginmedia broadband. Is anyone else being affected by their service? It’s an intermittent fault and my broadband drops which is so frustrating when #workingfromhome I have to say that @virginmedia haven’t been helpful despite calling them often.

  • Sm1987 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Shaun 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Sm1987) reported from East Wemyss, Scotland

    @virginmedia No I have given up to be honest. I am days in spending hours waiting with no reply. I have to go through the poor service every time explaining to them I can't afford the payments but they try and push a package on me at a higher price. I CAN'T AFFORD IT

  • C_CWarrender Claire Warrender (@C_CWarrender) reported from Methil, Scotland

    Is there any company with worse customer service than @virginmedia Husband has so far spent 6 hours on the phone to them today with no joy. They're truly awful.

  • gporter1983 Gary Porter (@gporter1983) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia status page is down, so unable to check if any issues, but our channels are not working properly, picture and sound keeps breaking up on all channels.

  • gporter1983 Gary Porter (@gporter1983) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia Not as bad as it was but picture still freezing now and again but the mini tv guide has started freezing when moving through channels.

  • bethmmurphy Beth Murphy (@bethmmurphy) reported from Methil, Scotland

    @virginmedia your broadband service is awful, need to reset router constantly and internet drops daily and at all different times 😡😡 no one answers the phones

  • Sm1987 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Shaun 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Sm1987) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @virginmedia been trying to cancel my contract for weeks now and spending hours waiting on customer relations online with no one to talk to just a sales team offering me something I can't afford

  • gporter1983 Gary Porter (@gporter1983) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    @stephenp6255 @virginmedia Not working again this morning, all my neighbours the same, so must be a localised issue in Glenrothes, happening almost every day

  • BigLaz1973 Kev Russell (@BigLaz1973) reported from Methil, Scotland

    @virginmedia my mobile signal has been down all day yesterday and now today #VirginMobileDown 😡

  • JulieMcIntosh1 Julie McIntosh (@JulieMcIntosh1) reported from Glenrothes, Scotland

    Is there anything more irritating than the @virginmedia chat bot! Being asked if I want to hold on chat every 30 seconds. Actually feels like it’s deliberate so the customer disconnects! #poorcustomerservice

  • terakopian Edmond Terakopian (@terakopian) reported

    @stuartfreedman @virginmedia @zeninternet Good to know. Thanks. To paraphrase, Virgin’s response a couple of days ago, was akin to, we’re just as bad as the others!!!!

  • SamPlan16007005 Sam Plant (@SamPlan16007005) reported

    @virginmedia Called them twice already, was told it had been escalated but heard nothing back. Also submitted a complaint. General outcome you never take any action just waste my time.

  • terakopian Edmond Terakopian (@terakopian) reported

    @virginmedia Alas, third time this week, the #virginmedia #broadband is down. Unacceptable failure rate.

  • Dotts1805 Paul Dotter (@Dotts1805) reported

    @virginmedia Getting about 125Mb D/L and 25Mb U/L wired (paying for 500Mb) and where I can get a wireless signal about 70Mb down and 10Mb up. Wireless dead spots in places that were fine 12 months ago with no router changes or movement and no new devices added.

  • nanoukacabra No, Nook (@nanoukacabra) reported

    Jeez, the @virginmedia website is awful for checking and reporting broadband issues. It's literally just told me that there's a known issue that affects multiple customers in my area, so instead of letting me to log that it also affects me, it's asked if the router is plugged in

  • Tim80422961 Tim (@Tim80422961) reported

    @virginmedia Reset yesterday evening. Ping this morning is 2.12mbps download and 22.71mbps upload. Looks like the problem is further upstream? Download has been particularly poor lately and we are not doing anything different.

  • nanoukacabra No, Nook (@nanoukacabra) reported

    @virginmedia Yup, that's showing, possibly because I've reported it. The issue is that to get to the 'report an issue' stage, I need to cycle through at least two iterations of 'turn router on/off', which only serves to discourage customers reporting genuine faults

  • ALBuff1 Amy Buffone (@ALBuff1) reported

    @virginmedia And how do you propose I do that when I have no signal??

  • Kevinj86 🅺🅴🆅🅸🅽 🅹🅴🅽🅽🅸🅽🅶🆂 (@Kevinj86) reported from Harlow, England

    Getting bombarded with calls from someone saying they work for @virginmedia and I have a problem with my broadband - five times this week! #nightmare @Ofcom

  • pjmckee Pete McKee (@pjmckee) reported

    Genuine question @virginmedia. Why might it take "between 2 and 48 hours" to reconnect a service? I'm not trying to be clever, I'm genuinely curious as to the process
