    Have @virginmedia gone down in South Manchester??? Been kicked off the wifi!

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

    Skysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!

    @virginmedia No point, there is a problem but it shows there aren't any issues in the area.

  • blokealex
    alex. (@blokealex) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

  • ErHes1997
    Emily (@ErHes1997) reported from Timperley, England

    How can @virginmedia say "yes there's a problem in your area, we expect it to be fixed on Wednesday"... 5 days is a joke when you'll never see that money returned to you for lack of service provided

  • EdwinDa18453545
    Edwin Daniel (@EdwinDa18453545) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

  • JoshuaBurns
    Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?

  • Aldehulme
    David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?

  • Hasbullins
    Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

  • gamepopper
    Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  • nathangreen101
    Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • birdflu_7
    officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I have numerous emails of my complaint , all of them paying lip service so to speak .

  • SimpaticoGem
    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

    @virginmedia what in the world is up with the wifi in Bournemouth at the moment? No fix until April 15th? I'd very much like some kind of reasonable explanation for that please...

    @VirginMediaNews Virgin media government mouthpiece as bad as rte.

    Jazza (@jmilprint) reported

    @sharonmariahall @virginmedia I've never had a problem with them, consistent fast Internet, TV works fine. When I thought of leaving they gave me a reduced price all done through Whatsapp.

  • Jd95975184
    Ian (@Jd95975184) reported

    @misselledee @virginmedia If virgin cant provide you service from 30 days of you reporting the fault you can leave for nothing, they are very incompetent when dealing with customers, deal with one agent who promises to sort it, never does, you phone back then its a different agent and you start all over

  • AaronHudsonUK
    Aaron Hudson (@AaronHudsonUK) reported

    @virginmedia - TV and internet is down again, any issues in the Peterborough area?

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @virginmedia @AlloquiStrix Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste of time.

  • dandufton
    Daniel Dufton (@dandufton) reported

    @virginmedia My VM account has been locked out 'for security reasons' for over three weeks. I called the number given and was told it has been escalated to the techteam. Now three weeks on and I've heard nothing. Trying to chase on the phone but been on hold 25 mins. Help!

  • redjohnno1
    Eye of the the storm (@redjohnno1) reported

    @virginmedia 15years a customer, tried to renew 3 times. 3 times you did it wrong, given up and moved to sky. Your customer service is absolutely shocking and zero customer loyalty

  • yiuonmw

    @virginmedia Nah, this is not on. What is this UK side internet issues going on the past few weeks. What is the estimated turn around on a full resolution?
