    Hi @virginmedia , my @E4Tweets HD channel 145 has been off for weeks.. What is going on? Ive tried everything to fix it but the problem is not with me...

  • chrismsutcliffe Chris Sutcliffe (@chrismsutcliffe) reported from Camberwell, England

    @tzusj @virginmedia .@virginmedia are just the worst. Over the course of about four months we found they incentivise their call centre staff to full on lie to you. Awful business practice, puts their service staff in a real bind

  • DesignBySol_ Solveiga Pakštaitė (@DesignBySol_) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia After trying several things, our broadband is still down. Trying to book an engineer since yesterday via phone and chat. No answer. We've had no internet for 2 weeks now. Can you help?

  • BigTaze BigTaze #BLM✊🏿 (@BigTaze) reported from Hackney, England

    @Velourpapi It does count lool .. the signal in my area for virgin media is ****!! So got to use that !

  • MissMikaSimmons MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Awful. I ask you again - what exactly are you spending customer fees on?

  • MissMikaSimmons MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi - my wifi still isn’t working. I’ve texted you and now tried to call you to cancel with no answer from either. Can I ask where is the money from your customers being spent?

  • hdl_dl helena (@hdl_dl) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, still with the problem. Broken and distorted image and audio

  • MoriartyMark Mark Moriarty (@MoriartyMark) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia don’t really enjoy my internet going down 5 times a day is there any danger of anyone answering your phones so I can get them to take this **** out?!

  • DWozza Wozza (@DWozza) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia someone just answered and then put the phone down on me

  • StephenHance1 Stephen Hance (@StephenHance1) reported from Lambeth, England

    @flyinggirlsarah @virginmedia That’s actually a really good idea Sarah, thanks. It’s like Catch 22. They say to call, the phone message refers you to the website, and the website tells you to call. The last time I had customer service as bad as this was @VirginAtlantic ! What’s the connection, I wonder?

  • CarlyCella carly cella (@CarlyCella) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with your broadband and would help if your phones are answered by someone who can actually help!!!

  • justclearuk Just Clear (@justclearuk) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia shocking service lately and we are not happy clients, with broadband being down. We were forced to upgrade and then the engineer didn’t even bother to show up. Waited over 4 hours on the phone. Finally had enough and will be disconnecting.

  • DScilly David scilly (@DScilly) reported from Islington, England

    @jammdesign @virginmedia Having a very similar issue now. Been on hold for 90min

  • hollyliba Holly B (@hollyliba) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU EFFING BLOODY INTERNET. We’re all working from home mid lockdown and have jobs to get done. Your service collapses all the effing time

  • MissMikaSimmons MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Yes the TV is down in my area. The wifi is fine. I have known this for days and no one at Virgin media picks up a call or returns the text. I’d like to cancel my account

  • ZXena_Mclean Zena Mclean (@ZXena_Mclean) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me out please? Been through your phone lines and online chat service. Seems no one knows how to change a email address and password. £20 changeover service for something most of us can do on our own in less than 5 mins. Why is this so difficult 😭

  • Semakaleng Sem Moema 😷 🌹 (@Semakaleng) reported from Hackney, England

    @CllrDaly @CllrSButt @virginmedia I’ve now paid three bills for service I’m not getting!

  • DWozza Wozza (@DWozza) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I waited for a hour and twenty minutes and your guys out the phone down on me and you haven’t even got the courtesy to respond?

  • KrLwsn Karl Lawson (@KrLwsn) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Please could you arrange for a customer service advisor to call me. I've been holding 56 minutes, and my line was cut off while speaking to a member of your team. Feel free to DM me for more information.

  • emmaisasink emma! (@emmaisasink) reported

    Can Virgin Media sort their ******* **** out? Had about 4 hours of WiFi in the past 24 hours? Or can anyone recommend a decent UK internet service provider that doesn’t constantly crash and isn’t unreliable?

  • simplesi29 simon reynolds (@simplesi29) reported

    @virginmedia All equipment has been checked and signals are ok, I was told sometimes a different router may not be as good on WiFi as others. And there is nothing they can do other than paying for an extender. This was a downgrade and now I'm stuck in contract with a rubbish service.

  • dave7martin David Martin (@dave7martin) reported

    @virginmedia All I keep getting is that there are intermittent signal issues in my area and it’s usually fixed within 24 hours. How does it keep happening?

  • lauraflynnn laura 👻 (@lauraflynnn) reported

    @__ffslottie__ @virginmedia Shoutout to Russel who was ridiculously rude on the phone earlier and then hung up on me xxx

  • SimonMiller316 Simon Miller (@SimonMiller316) reported

    So I’m just gonna keep updating this until it’s sorted as it’s the only way to get some movement. After @virginmedia told me my internet was fixed & even checked to confirm… it’s still down. 10 days & counting. The question now is what comes 1st? My wifi back or Veer on Raw…

  • bestboxerburner Bestboxerburner (@bestboxerburner) reported

    @SimonMiller316 @virginmedia @richardbranson If you're wondering why a broadband company can't fix your broadband when they say, then call 1-800-stuffjusthappens. They'll be waiting to take your call!

  • danofthewibble Danofthewibble (@danofthewibble) reported

    @Stupacabra @virginmedia Genuinely never had a problem with Sky broadband that wasn’t Openreach’s fault.

  • positiv07652695 positive vibes 💚💙🇺🇦 (@positiv07652695) reported

    @rickynow We just left Virgin media. Customer service awful

  • toe2868 tony (@toe2868) reported

    @virginmedia whys it impossible for you to listen to what I say. I’ve had 2 engineers, ‘fix’ my bband, new HUB 4 replacement, several calls, complaint and email to the CEO. but still my internet keeps going down. I’m paying 1Gig service for 6 weeks and NEVER had full service.

  • CapgunTom CapgunTom (@CapgunTom) reported

    @virginmedia Nope there are no issues listed in my area based on that checker.
