craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia And how am I to do that with no service? It took 3 technicians to figure out my modem had to be “pin reset” and another to rename it properly. Thats 1 hr of my life gone. So glad @CommunityFibre has arrived near me.
-
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.
-
Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England@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.
-
Alan Hodge (@hodgie_hd) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia down again in SW18 what on earth are we paying for and all your site can say is area problems as usual it really is pathetic #tradingstandards #virgindown
-
helena (@hdl_dl) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Hi, I need assistance and I have not been able to contact the service
-
Muloongo Muchelemba (@muloongo) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Why is the broadband service down today?! It’s been patchy all week. For the price we are paying every month, we expect better than this… #virginmedia
-
Antony Patrick Assoc (@antonypatrickuk) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia I’ve now raised an official complaint! The @virginmedia customer service team were useless! I will be terminating my contract with you ASAP and will advise everyone I know about the level of service you offer #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice
-
Stephen (@stephen_09) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia Hi, no service in W12. Router has been rebooted but still just flashing green. Been like this on/off for 24 hours.
-
mags (@margarethines1) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Your 08000643777 or 03454541111 are not working properly! They not go back to the beginning after my area reference!!!
-
Kitty Poole (@KittyPoole) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia internet has been disconnected (for 2 weeks) Impossible to get help via cust svcs as for some reason they don’t understand the situation. Help!
-
Rashid Iqbal ☔ (@Rashidfreed) reported from Kensington, England@Rhodri_H_Davies @virginmedia It's #virginontheridiculous that @virginmedia have had the same lame excuse for their 'temporary', nightmarish wait times on their 'helpline' for 12 months now Who else gets the dropped calls as soon as you mention a bad broadband connection? Were trying to #homeschool here!
-
Joseph Machta⭐⭐ (@pepemac27) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia hey there. Our broadband has been down since yesterday and the estimated fix time keeps being put later and later. My wife is working from home today so it's pretty impossible. Please could we have some sort of replacement dongle in the mean time?
-
Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia is by far the worst TV, broadband and telephone service I’ve received in 20. Customer service is appalling. I was just on the phone and the customer service personal just hung up on me. I just can’t wait to leave and go back to @SkyUK. #avoid #virginmedia
-
Pete Austin (@PeteAustin_) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia My partner - a current Virgin customer - just got *HUNG UP ON* by one of the rudest customer services advisors I’ve ever heard in my entire life. Abhorrent customer service. Absolutely shocking.
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia There are your usual garbage explanations yes. Saying no fix for hours. Not good enough
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, EnglandOnce again virgin media down in central London SW5. No television and no broadband #virginmedia #virginmediadown @virginmedia
-
Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia Try actually looking at your previous comms on Twitter with someone before making such an inappropriate and unhelpful response! At the end of the day, if you are not going to help, why are you here?
-
Jose Carvalho (@josethepotter) reported from Hammersmith, EnglandExtremely disappointed with Virgin Media. Made a contract with them for internet for my business on the 09/09/21 and still NO INTERNET installed. Called customer service and they can’t help, call the order manger and they can’t help too. Who can Virgin? @virginmedia @Virgin
-
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
-
MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia The service status always says its fine but the Internet goes down at this time every single night. #virginmediadown

andy spinoza (@andyspin) reported@virginmedia Hi we’ve been plagued by problems since you introduced the new box /software. Now it’s not showing ANY Tv! Totally shocking service. been waiting for 40 mins on the phone line. Your diagnostics show no issues but we have NO Tv- our lives taken over rebooting. Rubbish
-
Pure Hearted Human (@Graelwyn) reported@Ang_Jones72 It doesn't matter much now. As I intend to take my life as what virgin media don't know. Is that my mother and father abused me most of my life. And maybe since I never got her unconditional love as she loved only through money. I wanted to use the only thing she gives me now. Since she wouldn't call virgin to explain. As she cares more about my brother's partner's mother having cancer. Than that I may have cancer. So virgin media get their payments. And I have finally given up. That is all.
-
Our Electric World (@O_E_W) reported@TheEvEngineer @gigaclear @MartinSLewis I used to get the same with Virgin Media when it was our only option. Simple solution is to swap and change to the cheaper deals. I got an Orbi mesh router a while back. It should help simplify our next swap as it keeps the same network name whatever company we’re with.
-
maxine wilson 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@maxinewilson121) reportedI have changed Internet yesterday as I was out of contract with virgin media and they wanted 95 a month, I have switched to @youfibre and I am thrilled to bits with it and now even get signal in my garden.
-
sergio pani (@sergiopani62) reported@virginmedia shocking service provision. internet drop off these last few days. being told to wait 22 hours for an engineer. Like this regularly. Can’t watch a film properly, watch a game or listen to music as all rely on the internet . Change is coming.
-
Ed Jones (@edujones14) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia Better than when they came to my house. I’m not a customer but they still came while I was out and dug up plants in my front garden to access connecting services I didn’t ask for. Then refused any contact with me afterwards due to not being a customer!
-
LivingSage (@LivingSage2) reported@Dacosta150 @Jojo_agboola Bro, I’m on Youfibre too, lovely network. I dropped virgin media broadband, not because they are bad but cos of Youfibre upload speed. Their 1000mbps download is same with their 1000 upload. I’m on You2000 and it’s been lovely. @Jojo_agboola should try it
-
. (@AlexparkerI) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia I’ve just left virgin media. Their customer service is abysmal
-
Martin (@lionking2014) reported@LPXIOP They say VOIP is more reliable than the the old PTSN network... Gonna be using my @virginmedia Broadband which goes down more often than the telephone so don't see how it will be!????
-
James (Jim) Naismith (@JHNaismith) reportedUsually optimistic on technological progress so disappointed broadband speed being > halved to 67Mbps next month by @bt_uk. @virginmedia can’t fix their “blocked duct” at front door, not good advert for uk infrastructure, I live in Jericho, central Oxford, not remote Highlands.
