  • hasnat2002 Hasnat Ahmed (@hasnat2002) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia I'm sorry, without phone or Broadband I'm not able to confirm anything except that I don't have the service....or the service is being intermittent.

  • kathrynahedrick Kathryn Bowers (@kathrynahedrick) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, unfortunately not today - same issue and it's been this way for a few weeks now

  • groovyblueshed The silver goat 🐐 (@groovyblueshed) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Virgin really needs to simplify it's process of dealing with customers' enquiries. Customer care needs to be open and easily accessible, not made to impede or frustrate customers. It's way easier dealing with a bank or even HMRC.

  • alastairduns ALASTAIR DUNS (@alastairduns) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia seems to be an issue in Twickenham with broadband. Signal just disappeared. This happens far too often. Your service & coverage is terrible

  • skmerry Sarah Merry (@skmerry) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia Need to speak with someone about charges you are billing me for on an account that was cancelled in May. I’ve had no luck with your customer services.

  • groovyblueshed The silver goat 🐐 (@groovyblueshed) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Started chat at 16:44 Had to end 18:05 for hospital treatment to be done. In all that connection time, never got to the stage were some could deal with my problems. Most of it was going through security questions. Password rejected tho' VM posted it to me wks back. Useless.

  • groovyblueshed The silver goat 🐐 (@groovyblueshed) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Yes, but that process took 81 minutes, without having spoken to anyone who could deal with my problems. It's been the third attempt at talking with Virgin too.

  • kathrynahedrick Kathryn Bowers (@kathrynahedrick) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with the WiFi on the Underground? I need to sign in every time and even when I do manage to I get a message about a certificate and can't actually get a signal? I'm a Vodafone customer for mobile but I have a home Virgin Media account

  • Mabs79 Mabs (@Mabs79) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with the network in London N4. Broadband and TV nor working. Service status staying working ok

  • groovyblueshed The silver goat 🐐 (@groovyblueshed) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Thanks but tbh I'm just being directed round in circles and this is a big part of the problem in trying to deal with what should be a simple issue to deal with.

  • argen Bruno Belcastro (@argen) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia second weekend in less than a month without broadband/tv service. Disappointed.

  • tufnelljimmy James Anderson 🏛 (@tufnelljimmy) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia down yet again in N19. Almost all day. Everything is connected up correctly and have restarted.

  • booshkla Alex (@booshkla) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been on that website 1000 times in the last few weeks. It constantly says there are issues in the area. When I call the number, I don’t get through to an agent, just an automated system. Is there a direct email address at all? I literally can’t achieve anything right now

  • ARBack1 Alan Back (@ARBack1) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia is there still a problem with the service in TW1. I have had no broadband since 11:00?

  • Yellow212 Neil Adie (@Yellow212) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia has broadband gone down in my area? My WiFi has stopped working all day in Chingford.

  • mahdi Mahdi 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@mahdi) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    Avoid two companies in the UK: @IKEAUK and @VirginMedia; awful customer service.

  • alastairduns ALASTAIR DUNS (@alastairduns) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there are known issues being dealt with. According to your website should be fixed by 1500

  • hasnat2002 Hasnat Ahmed (@hasnat2002) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia AGAIN, my Virgin BB and telephone are down or operating erratically in my area of London W5 1JG. I can't even phone to enquire nor register for credit due to loss of service. This is terrible.

  • argen Bruno Belcastro (@argen) reported from Camden Town, England

    Virgin Media down since Saturday and EE with intermittent issues in the area today (can barely read Twitter). Universe conspiracy to stop me from working?

  • Barmybuilder Shane (@Barmybuilder) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia what the hell is happening with the broadband in NW London - service is beyond a joke and has been for many weeks - customer support appalling I’d be better with 2 bean cans and a piece of cord #internetdown #virginbroadband #newproviderneeded

  • bradfel Bradley Feller (@bradfel) reported

    @virginmedia No, just that It is a complex fault and they are working on it. I have intermittent service, but my point is that it will get fixed and then next week, it will go again. I don’t understand?

  • mateo19371759 mateo (@mateo19371759) reported

    Hi @virginmedia , moved house and was told our new service would would take 4-6 weeks for maintenance teams needed to do a pre-pull. After many lies and hours and hours waiting on your phone lines I’m now being told I have to wait another 6-8 weeks for a pre-pull and install

  • abj_Jess Jess C. (@abj_Jess) reported

    Yo @virginmedia how can I tell you I’m leaving because of your terrible internet without phoning your terrible help centre? Or should I just stop paying you £56 a month and be done with it?

  • chris_doyle86 Chris Doyle (@chris_doyle86) reported

    @virginmedia we were told that our self installation box was being sent today, cancelled our previous package so they didn't overlap. You text ON THE DAY to say there's an issue with suppliers. Can you not reactivate the previous boxes? Over an hour to speak to someone is a joke.

  • MillerConsole MillerOnConsole (@MillerConsole) reported

    @virginmedia I posted of the forum a week ago, I had someone say they needed me to post my BQM and some other issue but had nothing back since

  • finklepepper Finklepepper (@finklepepper) reported

    @LSanders_Music @virginmedia We came soooo close to changing provider last month. I've been with Virgin (Blueyonder before them) for 30 years but the service dropouts are getting too frequent. We signed a new contract because of the TV and wifi failed again the very next day. Still no answer to my complaint

  • Ashton_Akai Erik / Ashton_Akai (@Ashton_Akai) reported

    @virginmedia There is yeah. I was trying to understand why everything was working until engineers did something though. :p I was having no issues whatsoever and then just gone the minute they left.

  • Kmccann86 Kirsty McCann (@Kmccann86) reported

    @virginmedia not helpful when you finally speak to someone on the phone and they hang up on you before you can complete the package change.

  • virginhelp Virgin Help (@virginhelp) reported

    @Mary_BMac @Mary_BMac Hello, Mary. It's never nice to hear this. We have tagged @virginmedia who should be able to help. VH

  • DoctorWarmflash SH🎄RON (@DoctorWarmflash) reported

    @virginmedia An “issue” Clear as mud. I want to know how long it’s going to be like this so I’ve got time to switch suppliers before Christmas if necessary
