    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Just spoke on the phone with an agent called Denande; I explained to her that days ago other Virgin agents reassured us that we would get compensation towards our next bill due to this outage and she said they lied to us and we won’t get any. This whole mess is becoming a circus

    Foodwise Woman (@FoodwiseWomen) reported from Kensington, England

    I’m trying to live chat to @virginmedia to see if they can install a Hub 5 router in our area as Apple reporting privacy problems with existing router. I’m on hold for a ‘live’ agent but their Terri Triage BOT requires me to press the ‘Yes I’ll hold button’ every 40secs. 😱😱😱

    @virginmedia worst internet provider in UK, appalling service

  • mediaczar
    Mat Morrison (@mediaczar) reported from Paddington, England

    @OminousBagel @virginmedia Although I’m equally annoyed by their fault self-checking system … that requires you to be on the internet, on the same network you’re complaining is down…

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, DAY 5 without Internet connection here and I haven’t received any update from you. Can you PLEASE make some clarity on what is going on and when we can expect this to be fixed? Surely you should have sent a technician to check on us by now… Absolutely awful.

    @virginmedia F*k YOU. No wifi for a week. Waiting for a supervisor to call me back within 24 hours. FOUR DAYS Later and 2 IDIOT technicians ... cancel my service NOW. I’m moving my building Into the 22nd century. Keep playing with copper wires See ya *******

    Nicky Beale (@NickyJBeale) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia not very happy with the service from Virgin Media! After looking to leave them last week they promised to improve the WiFi and install a 2nd box. Well we have never and now they want to install the 2nd box in a MONTH and a HALF! #poorservice #virginmedia

    @DJRustyEgan @virginmedia It’s not speed I have a problem with, it’s all my services are down.. no broadband, no tv, no home phone. Awful service

  • markhayo
    MarcHayo. Former ditherer. Now pro hard-changed EU (@markhayo) reported from Kensington, England

    Respect to the engineers @virginmedia Consistently maintaining such a complex network is a tough job, especially at a time of exceptional demand. Whingeing the instant something as advanced as an internet network goes wrong is such a self-regarding 1st World problem. Shame on us

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @AlexanderTroup @virginmedia I guess there is a retention quota of some sort, that needs to be hit for some big wig get a big fat bonus. Especially, since we staying a customer anyway, just different account.

    Alex Balfour (@adbalfour) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia @PlayAvengers @Arekkz Bayta codes???Doesn’t he mean Beeta codes? For ****’s sake can no one speak proper British English any more. People at Starbucks -‘Can I get...’. Others ‘my bad’, ‘different THAN’, ‘a bunch of people’, ‘ON the week-end’, ‘ON Trafalgar Square’, ‘advertizement’ (my son said this)!

  • craiginmotion
    craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England

    Sheps (@ShepsSW19) reported

    @virginmedia no Internet or WiFi for 6 weeks. Spent 12+ hours on the phone to customer services on numerous occasions. Promised a cable installation on 3 seperate occasions now, not once has someone turned up. Lies. Broken promises and woeful customer service. Not good enough 😡

  • accesswaterways
    Accessible Waterways Association CIC (@accesswaterways) reported

    @NicolaG01 @virginmedia My experience of Virgin has always been they suffer from technical issues. Many is the time in the past I have called them, they have told me to do things at my end which I know will achieve nothing... and then it magically works!

  • Rzchy
    Harry (@Rzchy) reported

    @joshstirz No one I play with gets the issue just assumed you was on virgin media aswell interesting , no fibre available in my area so I guess I’m just handing out free wins / map leads vs west players forever now

    william swain (@swainw36) reported

    hi, @virginmedia Virgin Media O2 — urgent help needed. Our ntlworld family email setup (parent account + sub-mailboxes) has broken after migration. One account now controls all logins (a sub) and the others are locked out. This is an account linking/migration error. Plz escalate?

    Amy Heppingstall (@AmyHeppi) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely terrible wifi this afternoon this is not the service I’m paying for !!! Really fed up of this

  • peter_mcclurg
    Peter mcclurg (@peter_mcclurg) reported

    @virginmedia Can you sort the Intermittent connections in ML5 North Lanarkshire of Scotland area please. Utter garbage customer service. Two hours and still no call answered. 28 years a customer and definitely no more when renewal is due.

  • Itsdippylive
    Dippy | Brig Content Creator (@Itsdippylive) reported

    Virgin Media broke their agreement, then breached the formal complaint resolution about it within 6 days. Their own staff told me the complaints process has "limitations" and to take it to social media. So here we are 🧵

  • kelly_twidale
    kelly (@kelly_twidale) reported

    @virginmedia So things like iplayer will no longer work after 2nd of June ? The problem with a 360 is it doesn’t have recording capabilities which is the main purpose of the v6 it’s ok upgrading the systems but a lot of people like my parents still record not stream
