  @virginmedia I’m going to get disciplined in work as I don’t have internet connection. Who can my employer speak with to confirm this is a virgin issue??

• 
  Mariachiara (@mariesnotcool) reported 5 minutes ago 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!

  Rebecca Gould (@beccaleigh99) reported 8 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia hello, since you ‘upgraded’ the WiFi in our area - Clerkenwell- the WiFi signal has been terrible. To whom shall I complain? Thanks

• 
  Rhys (@_RhysThorne) reported 9 minutes ago from London, England

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

• 
  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 10 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it

  @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

  Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported 13 minutes ago 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.

  @virginmedia Green up/down arrow flashing and router restarting

  Luther Blissett (@LutherB40510976) reported 24 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia can you give me a direct number to call to cancel my contract. I've used whataspp / webchat and spoken to two people in last 24 hours - but to no avail.

• 
  Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported 24 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me straight to auto bot/live chat messaging service and there is no one actually responding.

• 
  Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported 25 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia Hi, yes I did. But still no service before I left home. Online service checker just said problems with TV & Broadband in my postcode area. Currently not at home, but will check upon my return.

• 
  Melanie Hart (@MelanieHart72) reported 26 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia You have put my bill up from £84 to £96 in one month and you are not providing a service I should have my full services 24/7 for that price and getting any compensation it like getting blood out of a stone !!! Disgusting service

• 
  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 32 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday

  @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

• 
  Jeff Salmon (@JeffSalmon) reported 33 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @virginmedia As I have already told you-the service checker simply, and probably purposely, give us a fixed time of 4/5 hours after any time you look at it. In short virgin are just “moving goal posts“. Why are you unable to tell 100s of your subscribers what the problem is. Is it laziness?

• 
  Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported 38 minutes ago 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.

  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.

• 
  Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported 48 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia you have now postponed an installation scheduled for 4th November to Christmas Eve! Can’t see that happening. Maybe someone actually based in the UK might bother to contact me about this? Minded to cancel otherwise. Not acceptable service.

  Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported 53 minutes ago 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

• 
  Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported 56 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @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.

  @My My virgin 3.0 hub is showing a red light and the internet is not working! I have tried switching the hub of and allowing it to cool, I have tried a factory reset but still nothing? I am trying to login to my Virgin media account to resolve the issue BUT

• 
  ndbchnn (@ndbchnn) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia is there a know issue with the WiFi in Salford? For the last 12 hours we’ve had no broadband, TV or heating (because our hive thermostat is linked to the wifi). I cannot seem to get any information from your website. This seems to happen every few months!

• 
  AlexFFS (@AlexBMastro) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I find it unacceptable that a service that costs £50 per month has an outage on a weekly basis... current outage has been going on since Friday night, nearly 24 hours already without a working connection. how is this possible ? And on a weekend as well

• 
  MouseMat (@andymousemat) reported 7 minutes ago

  @bt_uk @virginmedia @CityFibre I need to report massive internet outage in the following postcodes NE1 TO NE38 DH9 DH1, DH6, DH7 TS26, TS27, TS28 11564 - Riyadh Saudi Arabia 21442 - Jeddah Saudi Arabia Internet must be down as "Visitors" are awfully quiet

• 
  MJC (@CP1861) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia my account has now been locked for 3 months and therefore I’m unable to watch virgin tv go, one of the main reasons I’m your customer. I’ve phoned your customer services 7 times now and spent numerous hours on the phone speaking to your staff and on hold.

• 
  Juniper Pearl (@Coxy_Girl_) reported 10 minutes ago

  @yoffey @virginmedia Call cut out. Got through later without an hour long wait. Issue identified but also that our TV box was old and needed updating. New box due tomorrow, TV issue did resolve itself over night.

  @mobily_uk @virginmedia Way back 30 years ago I worked for cable and wireless up at Seacroft; the retentions team called themselves The Dream Team; they got a bonus for each customer who threatened to cancel they converted to a retention-when you call, drive that deal down as they have a lot of scope.

  @virginmedia @TelfordMemories Mine went down last night and despite it coming back on today the speed right now is 146mbps when I pay for a gig.

  Jane Samuels (@janeamanda67) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia our television signal has been awful since Tuesday. Picture is pixelated and scrambled. I’ve phoned customer service 4 times! Today I have been told the issue won’t be resolved until next Friday! Totally unacceptable

  Sean Milroy (@Seanster1984) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why are you telling people to get a booster after upgrading to 360 when a box is connected to its router through Ethernet cable? Ethernet connection is better. Wi-Fi is a luxury. People are paying over odds for service but you want them to pay more? Get a grip!!
