    @LPNevin @virginmedia I have the same problem, lost access to my email account

    @virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still haven’t passed security. That’s some service

    Rhymer Rigby (@rhymerrigby) reported from London, England

    @scribblercat @virginmedia The frequency of posts like this is why I'll never leave BT. IME, they're reliable and I care about that far more than speed, price, etc.

    @skytv due to Virgin media issues, couldn't watch the final episode of " and just like that" , screen pixated. When will you repeat so I can watch/record. #virginmedia

    @virginmedia Stop calling me then hanging up. That’s rude.

    Amanda Birrell (@blackheathma) reported from London, England

    @MartinSLewis It is the worst company I have ever dealt with and I’m now actively discouraging others to use Virgin Media. Cancelling is also very difficult and deliberately so

    @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.

    Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @themotablogger @virginmedia Terrible in Dagenham too! At least 3 times a day it drops out and normally in the middle of an important meeting! Not good enough!!

    @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

    @BBCWatchdog I was without TV service with Virgin Media for over a week this month, could only use chat bot, eventually a live chat with a person because I took to twitter, but they couldn't help me either. Still waiting for the comp form they said would come automatically.

    @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?

  • 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!

  • drawing_daily
    Steven Kraan (@drawing_daily) reported from Islington, England

    @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

  • _Lewis_A
    Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England

    I called @virginmedia back and they are now saying they won’t be able to install my internet until February 15th, a month after they sent me the modem. They’ve already activated my account and are charging me, but are telling me that shouldn’t have happened and they can’t fix it.

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

    @virginmedia Please as I have been paying for service

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

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

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

    @virginmedia help why have you made it so difficult to log a landline vault on line. Need to call, as line out of order since friday. I am certain it's systems fault as display message I have seen on previous occasions.

  • 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.

  • ZJM_331
    CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Ireland needs to face the facts they’re still rattled since the 2023 WC QF… probably facing the same issues that the head coach has stayed on a fraction too long now and it’s not working. Agreed with Marshy, sort your own issues.

    @CompoundingISA @MartinSLewis @ao Such short sighted customer service experience. I's like dealing with Virgin Media 10 years ago. I had to tell them 2-3 times that yes, I really did want to cancel. Thankfully, I was only on hold for a few minutes.

    @Ofcom can you please investigate @virginmedia I inquired about their service and then declined, since they’ve called me twelve times in two days, I have now had to block their number @richardbranson

    EL Divo. (@EugeneLeach) reported

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Typical arrogance of ex All Blacks,🤡when we were beating them,they had plenty of excuses. Irish analysts also highlighted the many handling errors of the Irish team. 6 clear turnovers prevented,blatant knock on,we're we had 3/1 overlap,penalty try ? 1st Yellow was 20minute red🤡

    @virginmedia You really need to up your game virtual chat about as much use as a chocolate ashtray. You promise something in the Contract and not deliver it. No am not the account holder but money comes from my account. Get your act in order because at the moment it is crap
