    My internet has been down for hours. But there is no way to contact @virginmedia. They are had at customer service. If I don't get internet soon I will go mad like in the Shining and there will be no Edinburgh show for anyone

  • chrisTstraker Chris Straker (@chrisTstraker) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia Please could someone let me know how to deal with issues, regarding mobile Wi-fi hotpspots and voicemail from abroad. Tried a number of times and yet to have any conversation, that didn’t require me repeating myself two or three times !!

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

    @KatiaDelNegro @virginmedia Yes I am experiencing this too in sw5. Was staggered at the rude stance taken by customer services when I phoned up

  • tonycelebrity tony pickering (@tonycelebrity) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve reported several times and when I run the checker it says no issue Yet when I call the 0345 number it says there is It was supposed to be fixed by the 24th Today I’m working from home and I don’t have any internet AGAIN!! Come on guys

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

    @alandavies1 @virginmedia Having just experience this call centre I must agree. The level of unprofessionalism rudeness and incompetence was staggering. Especially towards a loyal customer of many years’ standing

  • turboeddie08 Eddie Seber (@turboeddie08) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Btoadband not working, postcode Rm10 8JT

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia It was a customer insight survey sent to me by email. Gives you no chance to really voice your opinion as it’s just pushing the new box.

  • jdaukes Johnny Daukes (@jdaukes) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia It’s down. Expected fix by 16:00.

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

    @deborah_bonetti @virginmedia I live in sw5 and have been without broadband all day: I have been utterly appalled at the rudeness and ineptitude of their customer services people.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia The £20, £15, £10 down to £5 smacked of desperation really! Just give me the bloody box. We’ve been with you long enough!!!!!

  • jeverington James Everington (@jeverington) reported from Camden Town, England

    @pardel @virginmedia I haven’t been able to register with Virgin Media for days. There seems to be a silence from @virginmedia on any issues.

  • NadaShakour Nada Shakour (@NadaShakour) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia We lost internet Friday night. Today Sunday morning support team say issue fixed in area and so created a new ticket nbre giving YOU another48hrs to solve it and at same time saying engineer will call within 3hrs. No call. Support unable to help. No Senior to speak to.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia You do have a point @foxinthebox2010 though because they were asking if customers would be willing to pay £20 one off fee, then £15, £10, £5...which implies they could afford to upgrade for free but just want to squeeze more money of out their customers. We’ve had awful service

  • kmckeand Kate McKeand (@kmckeand) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Seriously @virginmedia what is wrong with your internet in Wandsworth I pay £47 a month and the service is patchy cuts out all the time it’s supposed to be fast fibre broadband but it’s anything but at the moment!!

  • EamonnCurran2 Eamonn Curran (@EamonnCurran2) reported from Ealing, England

    Are they F###ing serious. @virginmedia Twitter is only about publicity never actually doing anything to resolve the issues .PS 2 weeks later and the is is still open.that engineer must have a really long drive !!!@

  • deborah_bonetti Deborah Bonetti (@deborah_bonetti) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. The link says there are problems in the area and they should be fixed by 8pm but that’s a whole day using my mobile data instead of broadband! I am really disappointed.

  • Nicolanoodle Nicola Fish (@Nicolanoodle) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia I totally agree. Sadly it doesn’t seem that easy. I repeated at least 5 times ‘I’d just want to cancel my account’ to no avail.

  • avaehe Colin (@avaehe) reported

    @virginmedia hello, can you tell me if there are any broadband issues in the CH42 area please?

  • gdawes00 georgie (@gdawes00) reported

    @virginmedia your services are absolutely appalling. Our house has switched services because we couldn’t afford your astronomical bill each month. Thinking we could just cancel your service, but we have been trying for weeks and we can’t get through. Online isn’t even an option!

  • steveolewis Steve Lewis (@steveolewis) reported

    @virginmedia My drive way has been damaged by a technician. Lifted the bocks to run a cable, put them back all loose and the concrete edging holding them in place all broken up. There are now big gaps between the blocks where it’s all moving

  • Flaminhaystack Antonia (@Flaminhaystack) reported

    @thedogman_918 @virginmedia I detest Virginmedia. They have the worst customer service ever. They do not value customers at all

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It was a five minute fix, but she lost one month of TV access as a result. She’s a nurse so arranging a daytime appointment took a while because of her work patterns. It’s her first home of her own and I felt she had been treated in a less than respectable manner.

  • simpsonsarahlou Sarah Caple (@simpsonsarahlou) reported

    @virginmedia She has since registered another complaint also highlighted the closure of 1st complaint being unacceptable. Your processes make the whole situation very difficult, especially for your vulnerable customers.

  • RobMugshot Rob (@RobMugshot) reported

    @virginmedia No recorded problems in Coventry - but the whole of Coventry seems to have an ongoing issue.

  • HelenPayne2021 Helen Payne (@HelenPayne2021) reported

    @virginmedia No they didn't, I have been a customer for 14 years

  • dozeyjozey Jozey Wade (@dozeyjozey) reported

    @virginmedia Ok, but my cost has risen twice in that time. 1st, end of contract and then, after much agro, I started a new contract and was promised the cost would not change for 18 mnths. Now, 6 mnths later, it's increased. So I've lost trust. And it's issues/ repairs in my area apparently.

  • donafella Aaron (@donafella) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I’m having issues with my WiFi the last hour ... base light on the modem is constantly flashing green! I’ve tried everything from rebooting to resetting the modem and nothing has worked, also tried to call customer services but I can’t get through
