  • BarbaraMolony Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia The service page doesn’t work, or says there are no known faults. I’ve been going round in circles with this all week 🤬

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

    @virginmedia No, no one has ever used my email to login on your forums. In the meantime it’s DAY 6 with no Internet service, good job Virgin in supporting us fixing this 👍🏼

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

    @virginmedia Can you just send a technician over to us? I’d assume you’d prioritise a customer that has been left with no Internet for 5 days? I’m not going to post the issue on an online forum, I’m asking you to provide support please.

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Really losing my patience with Virgin media now. Down for 8 days been told 3 times it’ll be fixed within 24 hours but won’t send an engineer out

  • emmalouchu Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia No, I have TV service only and the live chat agent said I would get the compensation form.

  • ZJM_331 CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

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

    @virginmedia Yes I did try to call but couldn’t get hold of anyone after a 20 min wait. As you can see from the screenshot above in previous tweet, every appointment I make gets cancelled. Are you able to do something about this? Any help would be much appreciated

  • BarbaraMolony Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia ‘Helpline’ completely useless! Just sends me a text to a link to check my service 😳 What is going on???? #VirginMedia #UnhappyCustomer #NotOk

  • 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.

  • iamAleFerrara 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

  • UF1902 Umar 馬 ➡️ 🇨🇭 (@UF1902) reported from Hounslow, England

    @PandemicEU @virginmedia It's been happening for weeks. All I get when I call customer service are excuses.

  • PatricioSimone2 Patricio Simonetto (@PatricioSimone2) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia wifi doesn’t work. It’s impossible to get in touch with them in the phone. The worst internet service I have had…

  • marksonofjohn marksonofjohn (@marksonofjohn) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi No broadband service in CB113HG Can you please tell me what the issue is.

  • BarbaraMolony Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @AnishModgil @virginmedia In my experience No. and when I asked for money back last time they told me there had to be a complete service loss for a certain number of days!!!! Maybe time to contact the #Ombudsman

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

    @virginmedia I’m sorry but we have been facing a total loss of service since we have no Internet connection whatsoever!

  • scuttyoftheyard Andrew Colman (@scuttyoftheyard) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia And now the service checker doesn't seem to be working either....

  • emmalouchu Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @BBCWatchdog I was without TV service with Virgin Media for over a week this month, could only use chat bot, eventually a live chat with a person because I took to twitter, but they couldn't help me either. Still waiting for the comp form they said would come automatically.

  • BarbaraMolony Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. It’s so stressful when working from home and only being able to use my mobile phone to do anything! Netflix now finally working. What was the problem?

  • PatricioSimone2 Patricio Simonetto (@PatricioSimone2) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Still terrible. Can’t even watch TV. It works some hours and then it fails

  • Boubs1985 Kerry Vaughan (@Boubs1985) reported from Addington, England

    Aint it funny how my Internet was good as gold until @virginmedia tried to convince me to upgrade. Now its absolutely terrible 🙄

  • cj_buzz Sutton_CW (@cj_buzz) reported

    @virginmedia i am smelling a denial of service attack… hopefully you will give all customers free movies for rest of year to compensate

  • GemmaMildenhall Gemma Mildenhall-Perry (@GemmaMildenhall) reported

    @virginmedia my tv channels all gone off error code V53. Your website not working so can’t use service checker.

  • hanibal281288 Hannah Hitching (@hanibal281288) reported

    @SwindyMiller @virginmedia Having the same but can’t get on website, tried to ring customer services and they cut you off as too busy, stuck in a big queue via chat and down detector have had over 10000 people complain of the same issue

  • CathPuri Cath Puri (@CathPuri) reported

    @virginmedia No virgin media live tv right now! What's going on?! Can't get through to Virgin on phone as operators are "very busy", plus the tv error webpage is down. Clearly something is wrong but no posts from Virgin to explain. Amazing service.

  • lollyplant Lorraine Plant (@lollyplant) reported

    @virginmedia @JemmaPownall That's not working

  • lanerobertlane Robert Falla-Louvét 🔭🪐🚀 (@lanerobertlane) reported

    @virginmedia @SwindyMiller You know you're website that you're linking people to isn't working either, right?! This isn't an isolated image - you must have a major increase in volume of people tweeting you all of a sudden to realise this isn't an isolated issue?

  • gryffenstrong Muuuuumy to Zac & Eilz 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐒🦄 (@gryffenstrong) reported

    @virginmedia Hi guys - is there a full blackout of services including your website in Glasgow? Whole area is down.
