    @virginmedia We’ve been disconnected early. Been trying for nearly an hour on your live chat but no help provided at all. Still waiting.

  • tomaszrykala
    Tomasz Rykała (@tomaszrykala) reported from London, England

    Wow @virginmedia is having a complete meltdown in my area and their automated service is telling me that this "short" interruption to my internet services should be resolved at 10 am tomorrow. That's 14 hours from now! What if my work depended on it?

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

    @virginmedia How long is due course? I’ve already spent hours on this issue with no resolution. I started this chat conversation on Wednesday 1st February. Wouldn’t you agree the customer service from Virgin is woeful?

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Tries test but got a message it couldn't andnto try later. Not checked other service but you have a known issue re TV services on your status page

  • Barchetta66
    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia So that’s it. We’re still no closer to solving this issue than we were when it went down at the beginning of the week. Absolutely dreadful service.

  • 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.

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

  • _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

  • mariesnotcool
    Mariachiara (@mariesnotcool) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia we’ve had no service in EC1V London, since our Wi-Fi was installed last month. We’ve tried to call countless time and we keep being told about “area issues” that would be solved the day after but never do. This is just unacceptable behaviour!

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

    @virginmedia My broadband is down again - area21. Any idea of when it will be fixed?

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

    @virginmedia Brilliant get out clause @virginmedia. What you fail to realise is that when your so called service goes down for hours at a time, over the course of time amounts to so, so so much more than 48 hours!! Roll on switching of providers.

  • 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.

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

    @DannyMonez @virginmedia Yes sat down to watch final episode of " and just like that " and the screen is pixels all across. Just tried to watch on catch up is the same. Virgin Media i want a refund how can this be fixed. Can you tell me when sky will repeat this final episode.

  • emmalouchu
    Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia No, I have TV service only and the live chat agent said I would get the compensation form.

    @virginmedia No issues reported. But 7 houses locally reporting outages on local forums. This is happening frequently.

    Steven Kraan (@drawing_daily) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin Media, I’m trying to pay my monthly broadband bill online but when choosing pay bill it keeps redirecting me to your help page, so I can’t pay atm. When will this be fixed (won’t be paying late fees). Many thanks 🙏

    @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

    @virginmedia my services will be suspended because of an outstanding bill , however , this is not the first time , that the bill was paid , screenshots taken and now it’s up to Virgin media . Why should I be paying for a shoddy service , at best , anyway ?

  • Notts52
    Mo (@Notts52) reported

    @virginmedia DM about what? From my post you have my details, the situation that repeats and repeats and repeats. None of this happened until VM decided that you would make changes for better security by having the VMO2 p'word. Is this problem just us or are others affected? #virginmedia #O2

    @JFab208 @virginmedia Really poor. US Open tennis starts next week. I hope it's sorted before then.

  • Keeleyeveline_
    Keeley 🌻 (@Keeleyeveline_) reported

    @teenarani @virginmedia Hopefully it gets back up and running ASAP. Went to go onto my laptop and couldn't connect to the Internet that's the only reason I new it was down otherwise I wouldn't have

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Here's the thing ! We don't want to use a ******* website or an app ! We have a thing called a TV !!!!! Get the ****** sorted or give back the money you're taking from people's bank accounts for a **** service !

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @Joyevnm @virginmedia Exactly the same tactics here. Delayed weekly since 27 July. Now on Day 26 with absolutely no service and no useful information. @virginmedia

  • MalcDaySTFC
    Malcolm Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@MalcDaySTFC) reported

    @virginmedia @Carolestfc1 Cancel the subscription as not fit for purpose! Either that or a refund is the least you should expect.

  • andy_nicks60
    Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reported

    Well @virginmedia certainly have great customer service people that just feed you absolute lies about not stocking 360 boxes anymore then when they lose the argument they say you can’t have one because you’re not a new customer, and promptly end the conversation.

  • GazzaAdams
    Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    @UKDan86 @virginmedia I have read the T&Cs, Dan. Working from home isn't the basis of my complaint — paying for a broadband service that's been repeatedly intermittent for four weeks is. Virgin Media themselves acknowledge an ongoing fault. Whether I use my connection for work, Netflix or watching cat videos is irrelevant to expecting the service I'm paying for to actually work.

  • doozerlyn
    doozerlyn (@doozerlyn) reported

    @Ofcom.... Are Virgin Media in breach of contract for not supplying services as agreed, ie red button Sky Sports+? If so, are you going to do anything about it?? Can we cancel contract and or withhold payments?? If not, why not?
