  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)

    @virginmedia Thanks for updating I've had my 82 year old dad on the phone as he only has the main tv channels so I guess its the same issue as the pixalation issues. I'll let him know

  • AckersStorm
    Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

  • anttaylor23
    Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀

  • johnsonhomes2
    johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

  • Karamonkey1
    Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

  • WCONNOLLY2512
    William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported from Manchester, England

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • bludav_andrew
    👽 (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow

  • thechilledpanda
    Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported from Bramhall, England

    @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

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

    @virginmedia on my second week of being a first time customer with you and my connection has been down for nearly 10 hours now. What’s going on?

  • ChrisFoxRacing
    Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

  • OldhamBradd
    Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, England

    Fings outage analysis of #virginmediadown is 20.7% of subscribers are being affected @virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage #virginmedia @outagedetect

    @virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!

    🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia It's nothing you can help with on twitter unfortunately 😞.

  • PaulRegent1
    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

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

    @virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?

  • he_tompkins
    Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi there, I was told I would receive my replacement broadband by today and still no indication of when it’s going to arrive. Any help?

  • DaveGarside
    Dave Garside🇺🇦🇬🇧❤️ (@DaveGarside) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No. Tv is fine. I can access VOD such as Amazon Prime & Youtube no problem

  • 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?

    @DanAaronTaylor @virginmedia Same issue

  • thebeeb_23
    the_beeb_23 (@thebeeb_23) reported

    @virginmedia a little man from virgin media just rocked up at the door to explore opportunities to get our business back. How poor is the customer relationship software that they don’t have on record that pricing, service and delivery was so bog awful I will never go back?

  • 1kevin010
    Kevin (@1kevin010) reported

    @virginmedia Things are fine now, but it was down for over 6hrs this morning. The thing that annoyed me and others was that virgin didn’t acknowledge any issue online to reassure its customers, something to remember in the future

  • britfoodfinder
    GB Food Finder (@britfoodfinder) reported

    @LivThms @virginmedia That’s terrible. I find it quite unbelievable that @virginmedia will not accept this is a widespread problem and are not even admitting so, let alone try to resolve it for us all. How can we be expected to remain customers without the means to access our accounts?

  • DeborahGuina1
    Deborah Guina (@DeborahGuina1) reported

    @alisterrussell @PeteUK7 @virginmedia My sis in law was in ICU on a ventilator, I had just brought my brother back from another hospital after an MI. A debt collector for a utility Co knocked at his door. Atm the hospital rang to say we had to go down ( SIL later died) the debt guy said not to worry & offered a lift!

    "There's a broadband issue in your area" Aye, no **** @virginmedia. But there was no issues till your engineer turned up at lunchtime and started fiddling with the cabinets! 😩

  • Vikk3rs146
    Mark vix (@Vikk3rs146) reported

    @virginmedia No thinking about it ..this week was the final straw of your shite service and even lousier customer service ..I’m gone after 30 + years but loyal customers mean nothing to you lot .

  • RRS91718
    Robert 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽ (@RRS91718) reported

    @virginmedia For the 3rd time in under 2 weeks our internet has gone completely down. This is becoming totally unreliable
