    cont/- Every 2/3 hours you say that it is going to be fixed within three or four hours. It has not. We could not give a **** about £8 compensation per day. You are costing us thousands of pounds in lost revenue for those of us working from home. More @virginhelp @virginmedia

    Please @virginmedia can you change your waiting music. Its the same 4 tracks adnauseum & very poor quality at that. No wonder customers who wait for over an hour hang up. Its enough to drive you mad with these earworms all day.

    @premierinn no Free WiFi or Ultimate WiFi at Premier Inn Euston. Twitter has lots of other complaints of the same issue nationally… why I am asked to speak to Virgin Media, how hard can it be? Forget Network does not force the page to reload, what else can I do?

    @virginmedia still no answers and no broadband - can someone help !? I’m working from home and it’s so frustrating

  • markatpt
    Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia You didn’t reach out sadly and I’ve now cancelled the installation. Having spoken to someone clearly at home with her baby screaming in the background I have zero confidence that you are able to help us.

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already terminated my service with you since you were unable to get it installed in less than a month.

    @virginmedia This issue has been going on since August. Loss of power for hours on end is adding up to several days. I am currently on hold which I've been doing for 30 minutes. Shocking @Se7 residents please take note of @virginmedia

    Rebecca Gould (@beccaleigh99) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia hello, since you ‘upgraded’ the WiFi in our area - Clerkenwell- the WiFi signal has been terrible. To whom shall I complain? Thanks

    @virginmedia what's the reason for the intermittent broadband service in the Charlton #SE7 area? Any ETA when this will be solved?

  • worleyyy

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I had this issue. I'm still with them with the **** speeds because I refuse to pay the cut off.

  • Tea_lover99
    Sammy (@Tea_lover99) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They once set me a virgin box that we had never asked for. Then a year later they tried to charge me for it when I closed the account. Never paid (gave it to a friend).

  • StephenHampson
    Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported

    @virginmedia Sent one. Managed to fix it late at night but no help on your website for the streaming box so seems you don't act on your feedback and the remote app failed to work.

    Karen B 🌹🇪🇺 🇺🇦💜🤍💚KarenB@KBGreyhoundLady (@KBGreyhoundlady) reported

    @virginmedia E mails crashed out 2 days ago. OH rang & eventually spoke to a human. Apparently it’s a widespread problem. We need the emails. This is shoddy service. When is it going to be fixed. Not good enough

  • Michael45048695
    Michael Anderson (@Michael45048695) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Virgin are terrible to try and talk to about any problems, i got really lucky and ended up talking to a member of the board who corrected it for me despite another board member trying to reverse it.

  • sparkly_sand
    banofi (@sparkly_sand) reported

    @virginmedia you need to cater for people who work from home. I’m losing earnings due to bad internet. Apparently I can’t have business broadband and have a tv package! 🤬😭

  • JasonBurns_CM
    Jason Burns (@JasonBurns_CM) reported

    @LK_Yanited @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I've taught their customer service about how to fix their own issues it's so bad.

    @virginmedia WTF is up with your service lately in PA1? I've logged 309 disconnections in the past week (101 of those in the past day - 439 in month). All I get from your service status page is "Intermittent signal in your area". Is it the weather? Do I need a new hub?
