    Matthew Jones (@mattxjones) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia It wasn’t - I just want to add sky sports to my package, but I can’t online and the automated telephone service doesn’t work

  • oh_so_boatie
    Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Not a great start to Monday - @virginmedia is down, mobile hotspot not working, and as a freelancer who doesn't get paid when I don't work, losing much needed income while things are ££££ is very irritating 😞

    @virginmedia help no phone service in Lincoln can’t phone you off mobile or home phone tried on line site no help at all

  • MarcHanheide
    Marc Hanheide (@MarcHanheide) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia tried calling you for 40 minutes now, no luck. Broadband issue in LN1 area. Can ping external servers but your DNS servers (194.168.4.100) is not responding/working. All our devices are affected, but service status says all good. Rebooted everything. Fix please!

    Oh look no internet again. Thanks @virginmedia Someone recommend a new service provider please because I’ve truly had enough :(

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do get fed up with @virginmedia platitudes and inability to solve why I have poor connections speed, down to 28kbs at the moment, but your Helpdesk, after I waited 45 minutes, do not consider this to be a problem. Try downloading a 100Mb spreadsheet at that speed.

  • EdwardCroft19
    Edward Croft (@EdwardCroft19) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I’ve attempted to speak with your team and somehow never get through to anyone, just an automated service telling me to wait to be connected. Hence resorting to tweeting.

    @virginmedia Yes one minute its on then off the service for internet is very poor. It says we need an engineer !

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Second day running, get to 4pm and the internet crashes ... Unfortunately I do not have the luxury to stop work and try to fix it

    Getting to th elast 5 minutes of #KillingEve and my #virginmedia has bloody gone down 😭

  • SkyAlicry
    AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I’ve given up. You’ve failed yet again to provide what I we needed. I’m not surprised. Virgin Media is fast becoming synonymous with this lack of service. I do NOT recommend you to friends and family.

  • ONLYONEGIBBO
    GIBBO (@ONLYONEGIBBO) reported from Waddington, England

    So @virginmedia refused to let @SkyUK transfer our landline so now all services have been removed by SKY. How can people work from home when you give a fix date of 3 December - thus needs sorting now - no TV, no WiFi no phone

    @virginmedia any chance of you sorting out the broadband issue in and around Lincoln. It's been going on for a couple of hours

    I will not be ordering a movie from @virginmedia store ever again. Ordered a movie and never received the dvd. Every time I try to talk to someone about it I get different excuses why I haven’t received the dvd. #badcustomerservice #virginmedia

  • wilsmadein85
    Nathan Wilson (@wilsmadein85) reported from Gainsborough, England

    @virginmedia Tried ringing at the weekend and kept being sent to the website. Your customer service is as much use as a chocolate fire guard

    @virginmedia super hub 3 is not so super anymore, more lights flashing than the Christmas tree and a WiFi range as long as my arm, been intermittent problems since Friday. No one answers your phones and I can’t access my account online 😡 #virginmedia #broadband Grrrrrrrr

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. I've only got one account with you and have used the same email - I have been receiving emails about my bills & offers etc but can't sign in online.

    @virginmedia My Daught is having significant problems with her IPAD as result, and using her phones data (no we are not Virgin phones), which is costing her, when your network falters, I then switch to my NHS phone and use its data, and my simply uses her work phone ...both essential workers.

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Nice to see that you "Customer Services" are maintaining their historic levels of poor service. My contract comes to an end on the 19th of this month, I am wondering why I want stay with you. .... You were near bottom Uswitches recommended list

    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 22 without @virginmedia broadband, with still no explanation of why it’s taking so long to fix the outage in my area. It’s also the 4th date they’ve said it will be fixed by this pm. On the other 3 I’ve had a lunchtime message to say it will be 1 more week. Let’s see today..

  • robheneghan
    Rob Heneghan (@robheneghan) reported

    @virginmedia @CliveR39 How is this even close to being an acceptable response @virginmedia. Mine doesn’t work either. And watching sky sports doesn’t help when what I want to watch is on the red button. 🤠🤠🤠🤠

  • Elainebks
    ElaineGolding (@Elainebks) reported

    @RJAldous1 @virginmedia Oh dear you got the scammers. Their help dept is shown on the profile

  • CraigSu66242369
    Craig Sutton (@CraigSu66242369) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 Customers shouldn't have to compromise. We have all paid for a service which we are currently not getting. It's a disgrace really considering the cost. Maybe time for a change.

  • Notts52
    Mo (@Notts52) reported

    @virginmedia DM about what? From my post you have my details, the situation that repeats and repeats and repeats. None of this happened until VM decided that you would make changes for better security by having the VMO2 p'word. Is this problem just us or are others affected? #virginmedia #O2

  • andy_nicks60
    Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reported

    So @virginmedia after 15 years as a customer for broadband don’t deem you worthy of a recordable 360 box if you want to use them as a sole provider instead of Sky and only offer a streaming box that won’t work if your internet goes down. #AwfulCustomerService #Sky

  • CliveR39
    CliveR (@CliveR39) reported

    As a @virginmedia customer for a decade or so, VERY disappointing to find a problem with @SkySports Sky + red button service, taking some TEN DAYS and still not fixed @Ofcom

    @virginmedia service down again

  • JFab208

    @virginmedia I’m not interested in using an app my contract is for tv service so get it sorted

    @MickeyDN7 @virginmedia @SkySports Sky customer having the same issue, so I'd say the problem is on Sky's side not Virgins
