    @virginmedia I managed to pay it in the end but please could you fix your website…there’s some weird redirecting happening when trying to either view or pay your bill. London/Broadband

    Connor Dean (@donnorcean) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Still cutting in and out as it has been for many weeks… no local area issues listed anywhere. Have been trying to get ahold of someone for weeks now but just keeps looping in the app, really frustrating

    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

  • _RhysThorne
    Rhys (@_RhysThorne) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia have to be *the* most unreliable WiFi providers. 2 days with no internet and it’s still not working!

  • Barchetta66
    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Camden Town, England

    Our 4th day of no internet thanks to @virginmedia Can’t talk to a person. Fix date changes three times a day and it’s yet to be fixed. And yet they take a small fortunes out of our account every month.

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.

  • Mustxkim
    Mustakim. (@Mustxkim) reported from London, England

    Virgin Media moving weird. My wifi is working but for certain things. YouTube, IG, Disney+ is all fine but Safari, Twitter and other apps ain’t working. Fix up man. I ain’t paying all this money for daily issues @virginmedia

  • ChristineAllado

    .@virginmedia hi virgin, we've not had internet all day and absolutely need it for work. Can you give an update for why this is our network status?

  • Omnomnick
    Nick Blackburn (@Omnomnick) reported from Camden Town, England

    @hellylovesrawk @Ellydoestelly @CTweakThorne Oh no, never at work! This was to Virgin Media, who were clawing onto keeping me as a customer and sending me bills months after I'd cancelled the service!

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

    Nope, not just me. Hurry up & fix it @virginmedia , I want to watch the game in UHD

  • sam_batty
    Sam Batty (@sam_batty) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Just spend over an hour on live chat/phone. Your service means we’ll be nearly two weeks without internet!

  • KikassP
    kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, England

    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.

  • 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 hi, received my new phone. Except there’s no 4G/5G showing up even though I can send messages, go on social media and I can’t access sky bet. Is there any solution to this?

  • RogerHighfield

    @BBCNews I hate it Being stuck in the contract with Virgin media. Their call centres were terrible well depending which country you got. One member of staff refused to log me in because at the start I said I'm dyslexic and he said well if you fail the security questions we can't help you

    @BobbyMan747 @Virgin Personally i was thinking of making the switch to Virgin Media, but the last couple of weeks i have been hearing a lot of this. I thought they had sorted out their issues, but it appears they haven't.

  • fayfreddie10
    faye (@fayfreddie10) reported

    @virginmedia I can but we have gas and ongoing complaint . 2 repulls of cables .. its better than a few weeks ago but its still intermittent. And obviously the phone line is unusable .. i only use thet to call VM but even they have to call me back on my mobile as they cannot hear me.

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    Mishandling calls isnt reserved for virgin media but the NHS and all their staff members. I received a long awaited call from 111 regarding my toddler. Id like to note irs very late and he is now asleep. Before id even said hello after answering the phone call she rudely asked if i can hear her not even saying hello herself. That was an indication the rest of the call was going to be pointless. WTF?

  • CityVicks
    Vicky (@CityVicks) reported

    @virginmedia my internet keeps cutting out. And has just gone again. It’s the 4th time this week, and it wipes out all my smart devices. What is going on? It’s unacceptable how poor this service is

    @virginmedia WiFi and tv outage, expected fix Monday morning? How are we going to watch the England match?????

  • elainerust
    Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported

    @virginmedia despite your £28 million fine for preventing the switching process, I find you are doing this to me. So much for resolving the issues and reviewing your processes. You’ve cancelled my request TWICE. This has to stop. @Ofcom

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @jackbremer @virginmedia I've been with them longer than that and, TBF, they've been good on the whole. However, the mark of a decent company, I feel, is how they handle problems...and @virginmedia were found totally wanting in my case. I hope for your sake you never have a serious problem with them 🤞🤞
