    @virginmedia #sw16 #broadband poor service can you confirm if you have resumed normal service the broadband is down since yesterday sw16 4sd

  • threestain threestain (@threestain) reported from Tooting Bec, England

  • semcglone Stuart McGlone (@semcglone) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia internet outage for the second time in a week. It’s not like I’m paying £93 a month now, wait...huh

  • brazenprods brazen productions- jules hussey (@brazenprods) reported from Camberwell, England

    The first thing I have to do when I come home is time WiFi off on my phone cos @virginmedia is soooooo bad.

  • afturain Allison (@afturain) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia deny one of the passwords I gave is correct. Their systems are appealing. As is customer service. Don't use Virgin Media. No good reasons for why their practices are in place.

  • nlpedwards Neil Edwards CQ (@nlpedwards) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia so, having been on hold for 25 minutes, then cut off, called back on hold for a further 15 minutes... cut off again. Your customer service is atrocious... I can hear @SkyHelpTeam beckoning... they were crap, but they were never this shit.

  • pubby Steve Day 🏳️‍🌈 (@pubby) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    Given how badly BT’s share price has fared over the last few years, this might not be too unrealistic. There doesn’t seem to be much money in fixed telecoms at the moment. We@could have a Network Rail of broadband. Except there is also the Virgin Media fibre network.

  • skipratmedia craig burston (@skipratmedia) reported from Kidbrooke, England

    dear @virginmedia your internet connectivity is broken.

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Well I am not being patient and will be taking my custom elsewhere. This is your issue outside of my house and I am not getting the service I am paying for so will look elsewhere for someone who can provide a proper service!

  • threestain threestain (@threestain) reported from Tooting Bec, England

    @virginmedia Yep it’s broken in my area. Might get a fix tonight. Perhaps

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    So @virginmedia have refused to get an engineer to me today to fix their problem outside my house, which has cut out my internet and TV services. I have not got many followers but if anyone can retweet this example of disgraceful service I would be grateful.

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    Hi @virginmedia . Since 5pm I've probably had a total of 3min of working internet in the flat - where I work. Full time. I'm aware there's an ongoing problem in the area (N19 5HY) but the fact is I have lost hours of work over this and I'm not happy. Awaiting your reply. Thanks

  • Aiel_warrior Amir Sharabi (@Aiel_warrior) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia why is it so difficult to speak to someone and then when you do it’s an impossible mission to get anything sorted - worst customer service I’ve seen in a while.

  • Nica Nicole Mezzasalma (@Nica) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia And if the issue is more@complex than originally thought, I should be informed and not keep having to waste even more time chasing information from you. It’s really not good enough.

  • BarryDanser BarryDanser (@BarryDanser) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia system. Had gone down here in W10 your website shows no problem. Always the same. Phone service rubbish #badservice #poorquality @GripeO_Feed @GripeO_Outreach

  • lizmcdonnell1 liz mcdonnell (@lizmcdonnell1) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia are there problems in the Sw17 area

  • dranand2812 anand j (@dranand2812) reported from Chigwell, England

    @richardbranson vry sorry to say tht virgin media communication to th customers been very poor. I hv been awaiting new broadband connection fr a while, vry frustrating indeed. #acc813439502 site id 22

  • ruskin147 Rory Cellan-Jones (@ruskin147) reported from Lambeth, England

    Labour plan involves spending £20bn on rolling out a full fibre broadband network to all by 2020 - then providing free service to every home and business. But not clear where that leaves Virgin Media, TalkTalk etc

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia my internet and TV are down and seems like a supply or hub problem. Just called your call centre for help and I appreciate they have a script to follow but no help whatsoever. Earliest they could offer an engineer was tomorrow evening when we are not in!

  • skipratmedia craig burston (@skipratmedia) reported from Kidbrooke, England

    @virginmedia We know of an issue in your area that results in loss of service [...] you may be eligible for bill credit if your service isn't restored within two full working days.” I don’t know about bill credit but I massively need to work from home today.

  • Mr_PaintPots David Wright (@Mr_PaintPots) reported

    @virginmedia Afraid your link just takes me round in circles with no way of reporting my issue to anyone - solid red light on Hub 3 router, not caused by overheat. How to resolve, thanks?

  • MUFC9908 N31l 🔰 (@MUFC9908) reported

    You know that question “if there was one bit of advice you’d give your 18 year old self, what would it be”? For me it would be “when the time comes DO NOT sign up with @virginmedia”. People take heed, you’ve been warned. Worst company ever for customer service.

  • FishInky The Korova Milkbar (@FishInky) reported

    @virginmedia So I'm guessing the length and breadth of your help was: For me to contact customer services again? Or repeat the 2hr conversation we've had already on the Virgin forum? Hoping this isn't the case.

  • cheekychilton Lisa Chilton (@cheekychilton) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried over the past 6 weeks to get through today has been a joke! I need to cancel my account but can’t speak to anyone I’ve tried early morning and just before close!

  • AdamHargreaves5 Adam Hargreaves (@AdamHargreaves5) reported

    @virginmedia As a VM customer trying (very hard!) to do a VM trade up, shouldn't VM be sorting this out?

  • Smudgers2020 SMUDGE (@Smudgers2020) reported

    @virginmedia Cant get through , heard a friend being charged cancellation fees for not even cancelling , !! Absolute shocking customer service !!! Best way to get through is just cancel your direct debit !!

  • JSunMitchell1 JSunMitchell (@JSunMitchell1) reported

    @virginmedia My virgin broadband is cutting out and resetting itself over 50times a day now!!! Im paying 50plus quid a month and they are upping my bill an extra 3.50 and month and for what!? This is no exception for this...if this problem isn't solved soon...im canceling my virgin full stop!

  • ktdale Katie Dale (@ktdale) reported

    Been on hold to virgin media for an hour and half... Finally get though to someone and they put the phone down. Probably because they know im leaving due to the awful service @virginmedia

  • Josh_Cascada ITFC ⚽️ Josh ⚽️ (@Josh_Cascada) reported

    @virginmedia How do I activate my new sim card?? Put sim card in old iPhone xs (Was on o2) today about 3.30ish still no service turned phone on an off few times. is there anything I need to do? or dose it take 24 hours?

  • JoAgyeman Jo Agyeman (@JoAgyeman) reported
