Alex Balfour (@adbalfour) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia @PlayAvengers @Arekkz Bayta codes???Doesn’t he mean Beeta codes? For ****’s sake can no one speak proper British English any more. People at Starbucks -‘Can I get...’. Others ‘my bad’, ‘different THAN’, ‘a bunch of people’, ‘ON the week-end’, ‘ON Trafalgar Square’, ‘advertizement’ (my son said this)!

shoegal (@Marshall5Sharon) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia It says no problems but believe me… I have no WiFi at all, rebooted and done the usual check
-
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
-
Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Hello there, it’s past 12pm and we’re still without any Internet connection (and getting desperate now). I’d like to stress that this isn’t an intermittent signal issue but a total loss of service as we’ve been having no Internet connection AT ALL since last Friday. HELP PLEASE!
-
Niamh Wimperis (@WimperisDesigns) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia @GetYourAlexOn And spend another hour on the phone. This is totally unacceptable service.
-
Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Hammersmith, England@AlexanderTroup @virginmedia I guess there is a retention quota of some sort, that needs to be hit for some big wig get a big fat bonus. Especially, since we staying a customer anyway, just different account.

reme campos (@remecampos) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia my internet it’s not working this morning, again!. It keeps happening very frequently and when it works it’s very slow! I can’t reach your site ether. Postcode W11
-
Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Yes, they are known issues; but they haven’t been fixed in over a month! Every day the message keeps changing. Thursday the promise is to have things fixed by Friday, Friday it moves to Monday aso… It’s been like this for a month 🤯 We work from home; we need decent broadband.

Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginmedia Its now been 6 hours and nobody had called me. This is the bad service I am talking about! Its not good enough!
-
Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England@virginhelp i have been having issues with my broadband with @virginmedia for months. The router has been changed still no joy, a virtual tech was supposed to call me on Wed, he didnt, i keep calling and im still at square 1. Kids all study from home, so frustrating, help me🙏🏼🙏🏼
-
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?
-
-
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.
-
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
-
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
-
Catherine Gull (@catgull) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia what is going on with the network. No service!

Sandy Moore (@SandyMo45739639) reportedTired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8K_Best_IPTV50 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies

Tee (@nocturnallamb) reported@virginmedia what the hell is up with every time I start the bix it goes to home and not on my last viewed channel? STUPID change. Are you corps determined to make all UX as bad as possible 🙄
-
Mr Daryl T Catpiss (@DarylCatpiss) reported@virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Yeah what if I want to watch them on my big TV that I bought to watch my virgin media service on?
-
Meersham (@Schmuley_Schlo) reported@heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia I chose plusnet because their customer service is good, never had much trouble been with them for years now after switching every couple of years
-
ravnsnakeeyes (@deltaforever428) reported@Katuhstrophikz @elliviant Virgin media is bad
-
Jebsy (@Jebsy40) reported@colinmufc2 I have been kept on hold and passed around while trying to cancel out of contract services by peoole who don't understand that others have principles and can do without or pay more for better service. Some people just want change @VirginMedia, not 50 minutes of bs and retentions.
-
paul taylor (@pstaylor1412) reported@virginmedia shocking service !You want to change my elderly mother’s tv package which is far in excess of her needs and charge her extra for it. Fleecing oaps is not a good look after 20 years loyalty we will be cancelling.
-
RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported@virginmedia No, that has resolved nothing. A fundamental change to actually learning to provide timely customer service is required. 6 min. to schedule a call back 20 min. later - approx. 30min lead time Pick up phone and resolve issue <5 minutes. who needs math class?
