  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  • Keldavey hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

  • tlcko1882 Burnley Dave:Not woke just human.💙🌈🍺🇪🇺 (@tlcko1882) reported from London, England

    @journokeith @virginmedia Good as in they acknowledged your existence was what I meant. That's how their "customer services" is set up, they don't have the staff based in the UK to deal with it and all they can do is what they are doing.

  • MiaZagica Baltazarka (@MiaZagica) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Please as I have been paying for service

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I would not have used these terms as I didn’t know them however I presumed that all the necessary work would be done in the background. Why would I keep the landline with Virgin when I was VERY UNHAPPY with the service provided

  • Ivan_D_Crypto Crypto Ivan (@Ivan_D_Crypto) reported from Hackney, England

    @hummzak We at Virgin Media have a brand new IPTV service for 35 pounds flat fee, no monthly subscription + you get installations and service support, so it if breaks well fix replace it at no cost. Let me know if your interested

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I cancelled my broadband subscription in October and Virgin have kept charging me for landline although other provider inform me that they are providing service I just want to close the Virgin account

  • blackheathma Amanda Birrell (@blackheathma) reported from London, England

    @MartinSLewis It is the worst company I have ever dealt with and I’m now actively discouraging others to use Virgin Media. Cancelling is also very difficult and deliberately so

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginhelp @MistryMistry21 @virginmedia Virgin Media give really poor customer service. I’ve been waiting over 14 hours? It feels like your customer service team is a team of 1

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Croxley Green, England

    @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia How long is due course? I’ve already spent hours on this issue with no resolution. I started this chat conversation on Wednesday 1st February. Wouldn’t you agree the customer service from Virgin is woeful?

  • strutcakes Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, England

    Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

  • hodgie_hd 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

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia The quality of customer service cannot be recommended. The long delays are a constant problem Coming up to 2 hours this morning and no response

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still haven’t passed security. That’s some service

    @virginmedia Please could you let me know why our broadband was down this morning and what’s being done about the intermittent connection in SE1?

  • jimaah James Hirst (@jimaah) reported

    @virginmedia Just experienced outage after a week of no issues. I have key meetings this week so need robust Internet. Happened in CB24 area.

  • EgyChris Christian🇪🇬 (@EgyChris) reported

    @virginmedia worse customer service in history

  • carolinemstock Caroline Gutteridge (@carolinemstock) reported

    @virginmedia We can’t get through - see above tweets. I don’t know what service you aim to provide but surely customers being able to contact you is a fairly basic one. Any other suggestions?

  • HighFlyingBE Paddy Walsh (@HighFlyingBE) reported

    @virginmedia They said were there for upgrades still had issue this morning

  • donkeypunch1510 NE15 (@donkeypunch1510) reported

    @virginmedia I have had a a default added to my credit file from you but I’ve not had an account since March 2020. Can’t get through on your normal lines of support can someone contact me please

  • jonki1980 Jon K (@jonki1980) reported

    @virginmedia Still nothing yet. I have checked 151 and there is a message saying you know of the issue and should be up and running by 9am

  • onlya23 A (@onlya23) reported

    @virginmedia After 3 hours on the phone to resolve this issue back in January, I was told the issue would be looked into and relevant compensation issued. Only today have I received an email saying that the resolution is "Education given". The customer service to this point has been awful

  • Rossey44201829 Rossey (@Rossey44201829) reported

  • S4lllyC Sally Coles 💙 (@S4lllyC) reported

    @virginmedia Just reconnected, finally, after 19 hours down. It’s getting to be a bit of a nuisance, to say the least!
