    Like night follows day, it gets a bit hot and @virginmedia goes down. Useless #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • andreas_krieg
    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

  • ImaginaryCard
    MOMO (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia How's that gonna fix my problem? Twice in 2 weeks I've had no service. Can I cancel my contract if I'm in the 1st month?

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia No, no one has ever used my email to login on your forums. In the meantime it’s DAY 6 with no Internet service, good job Virgin in supporting us fixing this 👍🏼

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Just spoke on the phone with an agent called Denande; I explained to her that days ago other Virgin agents reassured us that we would get compensation towards our next bill due to this outage and she said they lied to us and we won’t get any. This whole mess is becoming a circus

  • antonypatrickuk
    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

    No internet at all now… apparently there are a few areas with dodgy internet problems… thanks Virgin media 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • DuarteMendonca
    Duarte Mendonça (@DuarteMendonca) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia having massive issues with billing and tried over 5 times to sort this over the phone. Most times someone will hang up and not call back making me have to call again, wait for 30m, tell the whole story again. Need to speak to an actual human at a store. Suggestions?

    @vmbusiness I am trying to close my account for a few weeks! You are trying to send me late payment charges! Please help Twitter team #badservice

  • Anthony_Lonres
    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

    @virginmedia I have made a formal complaint and i already have the connect app, it does not help me!

    @virginmedia why’s you automated payment system not working!!!! 😡

  • ImaginaryCard
    MoMo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    Nothing like @virginmedia's **** broadband coverage to kick off the week. No connection for 1 hour now

  • MissMikaSimmons
    MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi - my wifi still isn’t working. I’ve texted you and now tried to call you to cancel with no answer from either. Can I ask where is the money from your customers being spent?

  • muloongo
    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

  • GaborPfalzer
    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.

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 Yay, let’s all mess about trying to sign in to the app on your laptop, to find a HDMI cable, plugging that bugger in and then hoping to all things holy that it actually connects whilst missing the first half of the game you’re trying to watch as opposed to Virgin actually fix it!

  • piacapa
    Cheryl Brown (@piacapa) reported

    @virginmedia awful service. Still waiting for my tech engineer to arrive - time given by a Virgin 12-4pm. Now told another engineer will be with me ‘shortly’ but no time given! Seriously considering switching to BT

  • rjbjmb
    johan cruft (@rjbjmb) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t have sky sports as part of my package with you but have been able to watch it since Saturday. Is this part of the same issue?

  • RGE_Art
    Richard Geraint Evans (@RGE_Art) reported

    @JFab208 @virginmedia I hope you don't have to endure the hell that is modern day corporate customer services ...

  • doozerlyn
    doozerlyn (@doozerlyn) reported

    @virginmedia Why are you fixing everyone's red button issue on 28th August?? Mine says its going to be done at 1008 hours that day??? All engineers off till then or something else???

  • johngunn2
    johngunn (@johngunn2) reported

    @virginmedia @CliveR39 The last time I checked a couple of days ago it gave an estimated fix of 28th August. Which considering it’s been at least a week since it went down is a considerable length of time to not receive the service we’re paying for.

  • pgreen83
    Paul Green (@pgreen83) reported

    @virginmedia Could you reply to my DM? Absolutely shocking service with no accountability. £120 a month for what? No service, no customer service! Potentially you are in breach of contract and now ignoring customer complaints. Not a good look this!!

  • missinflower
    ⭐️LittleOne⭐️ (@missinflower) reported

    @virginmedia Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced! Been waiting a month for broadband! Awful!

  • Carolestfc1
    Carole Yeo 🌻 (@Carolestfc1) reported

    Another football season and STILL @virginmedia cannot sort out the games on the red button. What the hell do I pay for? Complete incompetence. I want the service I pay for or a significant refund!'

  • The_real_Jambo_
    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 I had no TV service for 16 days during the worldcup. Eventually fixed it and they refused to discount my bill because I still had internet. Been with them for nearly 7 years, renewals up soon and the best price they can offer is £15 DEARER than my current price.
