    @virginmedia customer service is so ****. They just transfer you round to different departments

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

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  • jimmysteamboat
    jimmy (@jimmysteamboat) reported from Manchester, England

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

  • barrys59
    Barry Slater (@barrys59) reported from Barton upon Irwell, England

    @virginmedia still no service M27. 4th hour! Rubbish!

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

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

    @virginmedia are you down again in M20? Hub flashing red again.

    @virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today

  • 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).

  • 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?

  • Rik_Ashton
    Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @SkyUK My Sky package is slowly edging up. Some new customer deals from a couple of years ago have worsened discounts but... I'm still around £30 a month better off than when I was with Virgin Media. Never going back.

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia No as you person on 150 said you do not have a customer service that I could talk too. Your engineer said it was a fault at the box in street so I don’t know when it is fixed. But it’s not improve in the last month

  • SoloUtilitaRian
    UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, England

    With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

    @virginmedia I've tried the online help to no avail.Just going round in circles. How do I get to book a visit by a human being?? 😡

  • twiddlemeister
    Definitely not Elon Musk (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    Probably consider an unlimited tariff at some point to make up for when Virgin Media goes down.

    @virginmedia you have caused me nothing but hassle for months now. Your customer service team are completely useless.

    @virginmedia any reason why your down! @DAZNBoxing missing all the fight!!

  • andrewtalbot72
    Andy T (@andrewtalbot72) reported

    @virginmedia @gblondon1 Good luck with that….!!! I did the same 18 months ago… after 4 months of Virgin messing up my bills I moved back to @skytv The call centres are simply the worst I’ve ever encountered A much better service imo…

  • DavMcQ84
    David McQuillan (@DavMcQ84) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been 66 days, 4 lengthy phone calls and a few hours of repeatedly trying to explain to your poorly trained call centre team that my ‘myvirginmedia’ account has been locked and still no solution despite repeated promises it would be. It is absolutely pathetic.

  • Burns12L
    luke (@Burns12L) reported

    @brownbill_scott @virginmedia Same lad been down for like 2 hours now

  • EdwardThorpe
    Edward Thorpe (@EdwardThorpe) reported

    @virginmedia are you having issues in the HD4 area? My broadband has been completely down since at least 6pm yesterday

  • Lyndzii
    Lyndzi Hamilton (@Lyndzii) reported

    @virginmedia requested delivery date and new contract start date to be 28th July. You’ve now sent a text and told my internet provider that I want to start it on 29th June which will incur me a fee. Can you fix this please?

  • TheDoctorMagic
    Kevin (@TheDoctorMagic) reported

    @virginmedia I'd like help with this: Why do you require customers make themselves available for a delivery from 8am to 6pm when other companies are able to give a 4 hour window? And why do you continue using the incompetent @Yodel_delivery company? My recent delivery finally arrived 8.45PM.

  • JoeFarrugia
    Joe Farrugia 🇬🇧🇲🇹🇪🇺 (@JoeFarrugia) reported

    Being messed up by @virginmedia. 1st we were never told the old box must be returned then they charge £90 for not returning it. Trying to get this sorted is such a hassle. You’re told one thing, nothing gets done then you’re told something else.

    @VMSportIE Who ******** is Tim Clancy? Some randomer off the street? Is Virgin Media Sport run by Sinn Fein?
