  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia And before you asked me to ask someone else to make the phone call; I live alone so no I can’t get someone to help make the phone call!

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia And what’s so annoying is that for some reasons it’s seems to be affecting my mobile network because even though I’m not connected to the wifi @O2 doesn’t works in the house and I’d need to leave the house and move further down street for the #O2 network to work and reply!

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Pls don’t take this personally but honestly it should be in your policy that customers reps should read treads before relying!! I’ve mentioned before - I’m deaf! I CANNOT make phone calls! That’s why that stupid BOT robot is demeaning and frustrating for ppl with limitations!

  • SOCYearwood Son of Carl 🇧🇧🇯🇲✊🏾💙 (@SOCYearwood) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @Hyperoptic #10YearsOfHyperoptic Virginmedia and BT couldn't provide a reliable service. Hyperoptic could.

  • shaspi Sharon Spiteri (@shaspi) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia There’s a problem in the area apparently which is due to be fixed by 3pm. Thanks for checking.

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on??? I don’t have any internet since morning? And it’s affecting my mobile phone in the house!! I had to leave the house to use mobile network to work! Rubbish service! That’s the problem when 2 service providers - O2 & VM joins force! #virginmediadown

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down in multiple homes on my street. I was told by your support you don't monitor your endpoints? Shocking if true!

  • ItsKatieC0mpt0n 凱蒂 (@ItsKatieC0mpt0n) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia 3 weeks after you drill through my pipe & send cowboy plumbers out I still haven’t heard anything! I filled a complaint 2 weeks ago and no response. If you think I am paying my bill this month you can jog on. Absolute terrible customer service

  • sumnjam Medan (@sumnjam) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia It doesn't work , now I have lost home phone service

  • benhollinsworth Ben Hollinsworth (@benhollinsworth) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia internet outage two weeks in a row. What’s going on!?

  • Dee03616 Dee_dee03616 (@Dee03616) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be having very slow connection?

  • Mostons Paul Moston (@Mostons) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Fastest UK broadband. That’s a maybe, but what you fail to say is that you will suffer regular outage and won’t be able to work. But that’s ok because you’ll pay £16 compensation for hours of lost production.

  • mikereddington Mike Reddington (@mikereddington) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I currently have a SIM only deal with O2 and M200 Fibre broadband with VM. I’d like to cancel both and switch to your Fibre Broadband Volt package (M350 + 10GB SIM) for £11.50 extra per month. How should I go about doing this?

  • damienk11 Damien Kelly (@damienk11) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia broadband service in Greenwich London is shocking, hasn't been working for 1 week now and when I've rang customer services multiple times, all they try to do is up-sell me on their other more expensive packages. Terror to think we pay for this service!!!!

  • louisemirwitch Louise Mirwitch (@louisemirwitch) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia My husband has had no email since 15.11 today. Nothing on phone or tablet. Mine is ok. All he gets is a box asking to sign in which pops up repeatedly. No webmail access and can’t set him up on my device. Help

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Yeah?! I hope you can resolve and repay the works and fees I’ve missed as well because of lack of internet on both my mobile network and internet because of @O2 and #virginmediadown

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I have NO INTERNET NOW FOR OVER 36hrs!!! VM you’ve been promising to sort it!!! What a freaking useless network provider!! It’s a joke! I’m sure your competitors are laughing right now!

  • Mostons Paul Moston (@Mostons) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia So customer services are baffled by daily outages since July - you should advertise a “not a fault free service” expect months of business disruption , and forget working from home. Just fix the problem.

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia VM I’ve not had any internet for 24hrs now!!! I can’t get access to a customer service rep on here who actually do something about it and all I’ve had it a BOT on repeat on WhatsApp!! Can you sort this issue out!? It’s 24hrs now!!

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @O2 Yes, the wifi isn’t working due to technical issues with @virginmedia and I need to leave the house for @O2 to work.

  • stanwowi stanwowi FBPE (@stanwowi) reported

    @SangeetaITV Not for me....@virginmedia Where's my ITV regional news? @itvmeridian been binned in favour of ITV Granada on my cable service

  • Edge_Creator Edge-Creator (@Edge_Creator) reported

    @virginmedia Sky we had issues with that were different but considering everything with them, they did not have bandwidth and coverage issues with the same num of devices connected via wifi too. Virgin cant handle anything. Its shocking.

  • TraceyK77299980 Tracey Knowles (@TraceyK77299980) reported

    What do you have to do to speak to someone @virginmedia Signed up in December. Got given a re conditioned box, the worst wifi speeds ever. Been on hold forever, emailed customer services on 4th Jan, said it would take 28days for someone to get back to me. Still nothing.

  • ddphotograph Dominic DEAN 📸 (@ddphotograph) reported

    @DavidMcAusland @virginmedia I have had Virgin for years but in a month I have never experienced this many outages

  • KarlThyer Karl (@KarlThyer) reported

    @virginmedia had problems with my internet cutting in and out for a few hours now, can someone tell me what the issue is.

  • SiHoulton Si Houlton (@SiHoulton) reported

    @MoAldalou @virginmedia Assuming you’re talking about broadband it’s generally assumed you contact a new provider and sign up with them. The systems in place are generally to support that behaviour. I know it’s super frustrating though.

  • Kevin1414 Kevin Malcolm (@Kevin1414) reported

    @Bigbirdy79 @virginmedia Same here Tracey, very poor service from @virginmedia

  • drummer_hindle Jake Hindle (@drummer_hindle) reported

    @virginmedia I have check everything and restarted it and it's a problem with wired and wireless.

  • helen_keohane helen devall (@helen_keohane) reported

    @sophiegalvinx @virginmedia We have had the exact same thing happen. Our contract cancelled apparently by someone else. No correspondence to myself to tell me this would happen. Then told to ring out landlord. To @virginmedia you did this you fix this

  • CiaranJohn_ ciaran (@CiaranJohn_) reported

    @virginmedia was told an engineer would call me between 10 and 2 today and never happened?
