  • peterpintodesa Peter Pinto de Sa (@peterpintodesa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Hi - still no broadband! Day four now. Conflicting information on the website and the phone. Can someone help? This is a really dreadful service

  • winetaff Lee James (@winetaff) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia 1h 15 jon the phone just to try to get my TV service up and running and now being told no service until the end of the month -computer says no to getting an engineer around unless your broadband is not working either -surely a better way #rubbishcustomerservice

  • peterpintodesa Peter Pinto de Sa (@peterpintodesa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia None, sadly. Email updates promised & never arrived. A call from an engineer also promised & never happened. The social media team have been responsive. Other parts of Virgin much less so.

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Okay well I’m currently on hold to speak to a manager in customer care on the phone and have been for nearly an hour so if you’re able to get speed that up it would be much appreciated.

  • aejazk Jazzhk (@aejazk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I have 1GB line on Hub 4. When I start my MacBook I get 500gb, if I leave on standby for 15-20 minutes it goes to 20 mb unless I restart my laptop which is so annoying could someone please help me to stay on the same speed all the time

  • REDROBB1967 ROB FARACE 💙 (@REDROBB1967) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Thank you but I just want my service to work reliably. I’m tired of chasing people & being given the run around. I can’t spend hours on the phone everyday to achieve nothing. I just want what I pay a lot of money for every month.

  • peterpintodesa Peter Pinto de Sa (@peterpintodesa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia There's the problem. Service status says 'no known issues'. Phone line says service interrupted back by 1000. Confusing information and inaccurate? The service has been dreadful for FOUR days now!

  • aur_elien Aurélien (@aur_elien) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia It says on that website that the issue my be fixed by 5pm on Monday! More than 3 days to fix an issue... It shows how much you care about your clients. Appalling.

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Oh they just hung up on me after being on hold for over an hour. If virgin media genuinely think I’m going to pay this bill after the level of service I’ve received they absolutely have another thing coming.

  • Rampopo Rampopo (@Rampopo) reported from Stratford, England

    Hello @virginmedia no service at all, whole of our street in E15

  • jujurants 💙Julie Featherstone 🇪🇺 🌹 💚✊🏿 (@jujurants) reported from Stratford, England

    virgin media down in E7 #virginmedia #servicestatus

  • faysasilva Elizabeth Silva (@faysasilva) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia can you tell me why my internet connection is gone from the outside of my house? You have left me 3 days without internet for 3 days with no explanation and now when I call your customer service you tell me n a recorded message an engineer is coming and when I call

  • LauraGreenawa12 Laura Greenaway (@LauraGreenawa12) reported from Merton, England

    @BeckyEverson @SkyUK @virginmedia Nope, virgin always lagging or down completely, have to reboot or switch between 2g or 5 g

  • faysasilva Elizabeth Silva (@faysasilva) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia I have not internet in my flat in EC1V9ET since Monday. No explanation no comment and after calling the Customer Service team every day for an update today I was told that I should not be working from home if I’m not a business.! So that’s just 👍 great. That’s why 1

  • MrChrisBrand Christopher Brand (@MrChrisBrand) reported from Walthamstow, England

    How about everyone who will lose work due to the @virginmedia outage send them invoices for the lost earnings?

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    So @virginmedia have just told me that a complaint I made over a month ago was actually never going to go anywhere and was only with the person I made the complaint to. I’ve just wasted a month on a complaint that was never going to get resolved. They wonder why ppl hate them

  • peterpintodesa Peter Pinto de Sa (@peterpintodesa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Hello - it's been a week so far. Still no broadband. Still no information. Still no contact. Continued dreadful service from Virgin. What can you suggest, please?

  • aur_elien Aurélien (@aur_elien) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m in East London and the internet has been down for 24h now. When are you planning to fix the issue??

  • wharfyoung jordan (@wharfyoung) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia The SAR apparently should take up to 30 days by which point it will have been 8 weeks since original complaint with no response from VM meaning I can go to CISAS with all evidence needed.

  • REDROBB1967 ROB FARACE 💙 (@REDROBB1967) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia hi I’m waiting for an engineer to come & look@at my router/WiFi connection but they’ve not turned up. Can you help please

    @virginmedia They don't read **** all

  • TraylerBE BT (@TraylerBE) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, I had already followed that using 2 different answers. 1 there had been an outage which just said it would be being fixed and 2 didn't lead anywhere else unfortunately.

  • gingerannie34 Annie C 💙 (@gingerannie34) reported

    @virginmedia OK I got an email confirming appointment but when I clicked on amend or cancel appointment, it takes me to my virgin media but I can't see anything about an appointment... OK I just now got a text telling me my appointment is on hold as they check service in the area...

  • robslusar7 Rob Slusar (@robslusar7) reported

    I used to really like @virginmedia but their internet seems to have got worse and worse recently. The internet is down as much as it's up, the wifi signal is non existent, amazing stuff for £99. No doubt I'll have to sit on hold for 2 hours again spending more money

  • Satterthwaite_D Dane Satterthwaite (@Satterthwaite_D) reported

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia I keep going round in circles on your voicemail options and then get kicked off and sent a hyperlink by text but that link isnt helping me resolve my problem. How can I speak to someone directly about getting a new hub? Thank you

  • MattK10587791 Matt_K (@MattK10587791) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin broadband customer contact service is catastrophically bad. Round and round chat, phone, app...just want to order two plug in wifi boosters.

  • BruceBa06826486 Bruce Banner-Football-index (@BruceBa06826486) reported

    @virginmedia Do goats run this customer service team

  • Just_Daz_Young Darren Young 📺 (@Just_Daz_Young) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia My tariff is going up from £72ish to £108ish so I want to leave... Simple but trying to get them to do this is madness. Internet is slow and not reliable, I have been promised the earth and it has just got worst! @BBCWatchdog

  • clarenicolehill Clare Hill (@clarenicolehill) reported

    @virginmedia any idea how long the network is going to be down? Some of us have work to do and can’t without WiFi or access to the internet! Having to hotspot from my neighbours phone to send this tweet bc no one is answering your phone lines!!
