    @BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

  • Anthony_Lonres
    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Your online status reports no faults but as I said in the thread, I have called your support centre at least 10 times & they confirm there is a fault which has been the case since the 2nd of March. I am assured, every time I call, that it will be fixed within 7 days. It never is

    @virginmedia I have made a formal complaint and i already have the connect app, it does not help me!

    @virginmedia I just got a direct message from you but i dont think it was you! Also no issues but the wifi wasnt working. Its back now will go again

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

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Thought about it, but it’s most likely a management directive, nothing will happen. All I want is my package, set up the new flat, and not hear about them until we cancel again, hopefully last time.

    Elizabeth Silva (@faysasilva) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia I have not internet in my flat in EC1V9ET since Monday. No explanation no comment and after calling the Customer Service team every day for an update today I was told that I should not be working from home if I’m not a business.! So that’s just 👍 great. That’s why 1

    MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Yes the TV is down in my area. The wifi is fine. I have known this for days and no one at Virgin media picks up a call or returns the text. I’d like to cancel my account

    @jexxicamunro @virginmedia OMG this is so bad, especially when working from home in a lockdown!

  • FoodwiseWomen
    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. 😱😱😱

    Like night follows day, it gets a bit hot and @virginmedia goes down. Useless #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • edward_baran
    Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @AsadMoghal @virginmedia That’s of course if you get a reply from a genuine account . Lots of scammer accounts reply to Vm complaint tweets - because there are so very many online complaints #virginmediadown

  • 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!

  • andreas_krieg
    Dr Andreas Krieg (@andreas_krieg) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia It still comes and goes. Absolutely unreliable to work from home when I get kicked out of conference calls because the broadband is down. This is very poor after almost 12 hours! #WorkFromHome

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

    @AbzAaron @virginmedia Even better… if you don’t play along, nobody else will cancel it. You can’t even hang up on the sales pitch.

  • Jo_The_Waiter
    CALUM GRAY (@Jo_The_Waiter) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @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

    Eternal Elneny (@eternalelneny) reported

    @virginmedia With all due respect, the engineers have been there all day, I saw two of them having a 20 minute lunch break at 10am. Can you push these engineers to get this completed today? Compensation isn’t a valid response to not being able to work - ridiculous service.

  • kateandhergirls
    Kate and her girls (@kateandhergirls) reported

    @MartinSLewis plz help. @virginmedia told me I was out of contract when in fact I have another yr, tried to switch plans via your site & im currently paying £36pm for 500mb whereas new customers can pay £22.99 for 1GB. VM slapping me with almost £400 get out fee. 😭 #virginmedia

  • StephenOld
    Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @virginmedia When you upgraded my broadband line you told me to plug my phone into my router. I did that and it stopped working. Your customer service is useless and this tweet is staying public until YOU fix it.

    @virginmedia I have still recieved no response from your help team

    And goes on more broken promises of a call to resolve , if you have the opportunity leave @virginmedia as soon as you possibly can .

    @virginmedia So how do i go about reporting an SNR upstream Area fault now? the forums have been shut down which always handled it before but now ive been stuck with this causing packet loss since early June.

  • DennyTWright
    Denny Wright (@DennyTWright) reported

    @seanhg72 @virginmedia I’d be fuming as I use my phone as an alarm and it’s nearby incase of family emergency.

  • StephenOld
    Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @virginmedia Do something about your useless Customer Service. You used to have shops and phone lines so that I could taslkd to a real person. Your automated systems have always been uselss and now you want me to send you an audio or a video message, neither of which works.

    @virginmedia I need some help with my account, recently moved house and had new WiFi installed and your trying to charge me £103 just for WiFi? Not having it

    @virginmedia You would love to help me, but you can't. Your response will be, "I'm afraid I can only apologise, sir, but that's the way it is. Take it or leave it."
