    So @virginmedia has gone down ....... keep calm it's not the end of the world it will be back up working faster than us getting let out again

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia spoken to your “customer service”. Advised that promises for call back on live chat cannot be traced and nothing they could do. The call centre apparently has no record of live chat conversations. Advisor seemed to blame me! For a media company very poorly connected

  • GayToryJon Jonathan (@GayToryJon) reported from Blackpool, England

    @virginmedia The work has been completed within 2 hours, which is commendable. Have checked my postcode and sadly you don’t offer a service here, even though it’s only about 20 feet from where they have just been working.

  • JackDSprigg Jack Sprigg (@JackDSprigg) reported from South Shore, England

    @callumtay_ @virginmedia Chat shit, you’re just bad

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Penwortham, England

    Wow @virginmedia love how your retention team just put the disconnection through and never offered me any thing to even try and convince me to stay

  • TheICC_Sandra Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    Feeling let down AGAIN by @virginmedia, 8 days ago an engineer finally identifies the problem is external cabling, another hour call on Tuesday and still no idea of a fix date or a call back, in the meantime constant broadband drop out #unacceptable

  • isleethere Keenan Jay (@isleethere) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia your isolator cable for my new router will ot plug into my wall outlet. Please help me. Dissertation due.

  • TheICC_Sandra Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reply, the issue is the cable from our house to the road. Needs a construction team, I understand it may take a few weeks but zero comms. Everything I call the tech dept they want to sell me a booster!

  • ewart71 Jim Ewart (@ewart71) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia It’s not fixed yet @virginmedia still intermittently losing internet won the wired connection also on demand still not working without dropping out and encountering errors - get it fixed as we are sick of paying you top end broadband for nothing

  • Elle83 Michelle E (@Elle83) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia can you tell me what hours live chat are open. My delivery never came on Saturday and the live chat box won’t show on webpage to be able to contact someone

  • HelenLloyd66 Tweety Pie 🐥 (@HelenLloyd66) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia My internet and TV has been very spasmodic for a few weeks now which is annoying however it has and been down now for 24 hours. I am highly vulnerable and cannot leave the house no TV no internet this is not a service

  • TheICC_Sandra Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia The 4 people I spoke to seemed to think they were running late from the visit last Thursday, lady I spoke to was helpful and was calling the tech that visited the problem, another 5 days later and still no update!

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia reported slow speeds on Sunday. Promised a call back between 2 and 4 hours. Not received. Not getting the minimum guaranteed broadband speed yet paying in full. Proving difficult to speak to anybody. You appear not to care. #poorcustomerservice

  • TheICC_Sandra Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    Great service from online service (text) and very helpful call from technical support today from @virginmedia, new hub on way to hopefully resolve issues #customerservice #FirstWorldProblems

  • JackCarroll_ JackC (@JackCarroll_) reported from Blackpool, England

    Is Virgin media tits up or is the cod servers tits up here or is it both, **** my life

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia also run tests. All came back fine. Significantly below minimum guaranteed speed. Average 20mbps. Disappointed that I was promised a call and never got it. Been on hold too long. Appalling service.

    @virginmedia why has my TiVo box been set back to factory settings. I’ve lost all my recordings, planned recordings, had to reset-up Netflix and Prime! Sick of such a crap service for the money you pay! Anyone else had this problem?

  • nordyteacher Craig (@nordyteacher) reported

    @sgraIRL @mjc0ughl4n @iamjameslumumba And if I don’t like the content on one particular channel on sky, I don’t cancel my subscription and go to virgin media… I change the channel (and maybe don’t watch that channel anymore.)

    @virginmedia services down AGAIN in the Surrey area. Regular occurrence - every couple of weeks. Told service not back until 16:00 on 29/1. No broadband or tv until then.

  • DaveWilliams_2 Dave Williams (@DaveWilliams_2) reported

    @virginmedia @Jambobwana Today? I've been struggling to cancel my services since last week. Your feed and community forum are full of complaints about it. @MartinSLewis This could be one for you to ask Virgin about, please.
