    I've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.

    @themotablogger @virginmedia Terrible in Dagenham too! At least 3 times a day it drops out and normally in the middle of an important meeting! Not good enough!!

    @virginmedia bring back customer service to the UK. Philippines is a joke!

  • marianmartinart
    Marian Martin (@marianmartinart) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

  • 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.

    @virginmedia @skytv can you please sort out the sky sports app. I cannot login in using my virgin media account. It will not load the password page. I don’t really see why it logs me out periodically in the first place.

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, yes I did. But still no service before I left home. Online service checker just said problems with TV & Broadband in my postcode area. Currently not at home, but will check upon my return.

    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginhelp @MistryMistry21 @virginmedia Virgin Media give really poor customer service. I’ve been waiting over 14 hours? It feels like your customer service team is a team of 1

  • _Lewis_A
    Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    @ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known

  • jfcolomer
    Juan Folgar Colomer (@jfcolomer) reported from London, England

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

  • joybrenda
    Brenda (@joybrenda) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia help why have you made it so difficult to log a landline vault on line. Need to call, as line out of order since friday. I am certain it's systems fault as display message I have seen on previous occasions.

    @virginmedia internet down second day in a row, when will it work again?

  • silvergoatish
    The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported from Camden, England

    @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

  • beccaleigh99
    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

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia The quality of customer service cannot be recommended. The long delays are a constant problem Coming up to 2 hours this morning and no response

  • g_neale
    Geoff Neale (@g_neale) reported from Camden Town, England

    @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?

  • RogerHighfield
    Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia, your app does not seem to think there's a problem with the internet in area 21. I think different. Can you check?!

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Here we go, phones again. This is the 21st century where other communication methods are much more efficient. I'll be surprised if they do respond to me and actually help with my 2 open support tickets (both failing your SLA)

  • AnnieCaird
    Annie Caird 🌻 (@AnnieCaird) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • System11b
    System11 (@System11b) reported

    @MartinSLewis The only effective way to haggle is to just say you're cancelling. With car insurance particularly it's an annual timewasting ritual where they hike the renewal for no reason at all, you call to cancel and they immediately fold and come back with a better offer. Also works with Virginmedia when they make a tiny change to packages and hike them.

    @GGNDRiRock @virginmedia Had to go to apps and sign in again, what am i paying @virginmedia for to avoid all this crap!

  • otterman62

    @virginmedia all services out since mid morning with an estimate of 21:00 for a fix!! Awful service from virgin media

    @Seiko_Senpai_ meanwhile im still waiting for virgin media to get my **** installed after waiting for almost 2 months 💔

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting on your chat agent - to say he/she is incompetent would be the mother of all understatements. And yes, I've tried calling in the past, and that experience was so frustratingly pointless that I'm never trying again.

  • ctidbluemoon
    Terry Hughes (@ctidbluemoon) reported

    @virginmedia It doesn't work because the Internet gone off and using mobile data just keeps refreshing page

  • DaveHowe86
    Dave Howe (@DaveHowe86) reported

    @JonStone101 @virginmedia Have the same at every renewal, even had the Indian team in disbelief that I wanted the cancel the landline phone (haven’t had one in decades) and could only quote more than what I was currently paying. The UK side (think Scotland) were great and got me the deal I was after

  • ColinFenn45
    Colin Fenn (@ColinFenn45) reported

    @virginmedia I forgot to mention, during these low signal periods, when using okla speed checker download speed can be as low as 8mbps and upload often a little higher. Using the website fault checker does not register any problems , Colin.

    @JonStone101 @virginmedia They say sorry a lot . Proper **** company

  • sfinn2302

    @Virgin OMG Customer Service is non existence. In Dublin airport last night, no net work and emergency calls only. My son couldn't contact me to be collected. I ring @virginmedia same lines as every time before. I always ask to speak witha manager but they are always in meetings.
