  • ItaloMurdoch J Murdoch-Smith (@ItaloMurdoch) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia hi - have had a lot internet outages this week (in Camden), currently about 3/4 a day for half hour at a time with huge impact on working from home - please advise what's causing this issue?

  • jakub_zalas Jakub Zalas (@jakub_zalas) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia I know it is an outage. They’re far too common with you. There was not a single outage for the two years I’ve been using EE. It’s a third one within a month I’ve been with you.

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    @randomranger @virginmedia @virginmedia is anyone able to help? Internet cutting out constantly again today. The problem is not fixed. Can’t get through to our customer service lines.

  • Gksharkar Gk (@Gksharkar) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia since 2016 with virgin but really disappointed and disgusted as network is so cheap, sometimes feel like i am in the Amazon Forest. As advised i upgraded it and nlw paying more money but without proper service. Everyday it drops.

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I had the same issue I. May and complained and nobody ever acknowledged or responded so please forgive my lack of faith in your customer care systems and processes

  • ImDjSmith_ Dj Smith (@ImDjSmith_) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Then John if you read my tweet you would of seen the images attached and that NO ONE is picking up the phones at virgin media customer services. and I can see from other people’s tweets. There is a common theme here. Why can’t @virginmedia call me back???

  • Pumpkin25 Anike (@Pumpkin25) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia @eta1874 Mine is down too and I’m working. Tv and internet just stopped!

  • sue_horbury Sue Horbury (@sue_horbury) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia There were issues yesterday but we have been having problems for months and no one ever responds. I don’t believe you are sorry otherwise you would improve your customer service

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    @randomranger @virginmedia The last six months it’s been on off on off on off. A few multiple day outages but mostly shorting all over the place. I pay for 200. Often 3,4,5. Upload speed never more than 29 which makes video calls unviable. The customer service just doesn’t care.

  • RichardGreenla1 Richard Greenland (@RichardGreenla1) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia any idea when the upgrade (that you didnt pre warn sbout) in the da15 area will be completed please? Your automated message said 16.00 but still no service. I've lost half a days work!

  • BostonCelticsFC Boston Celtics (@BostonCelticsFC) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia need home phone support please! Been on hold 1 hour 20 mins. The Home phone for some reason is not making outgoing calls and when it does, it comes up as a mobile number which I'm assuming is on the sim card from the burnside terminal. Need help please

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    Atrocious service yet again from @virginmedia what’s wrong with you? You claim there’s nothing wrong yet your internet fails to work all afternoon in SW London. Refund please.

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia What is their typical response time? Are you answering phone lines at the moment either? If you did I wouldn’t need to do this but I can’t get any help.

  • Transome77 Terry Ransome (@Transome77) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia trying to contact you to cancel my services. Cannot get through on phone or through messaging? Please help

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. The last time I had the same problem i messaged the same number and it took days to get a response. Not really helpful. Can you actually help specific accounts here? I’d prefer that.

  • timmymc Tim McLoughlin (@timmymc) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Two days? Seriously? Why are you always too busy to respond to and help your customers? You have multiple communication channels yet it’s all pointless as the only way you will do anything is on the phone and I can never get through.

  • hogartha Anne Hogarth (@hogartha) reported from Loughton, England

    @virginmedia Pretty poor. We will contact you with the full details. The current speed is 31Mbps!

  • NessTownsend Ness Townsend (@NessTownsend) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia no response - thanks for your great customer service. Our broadband has been haphazard since getting the higher speed and no help despite phone call after phone call. 😡😡😡😡

  • Pumpkin25 Anike (@Pumpkin25) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia still waiting for the internet to return in Sidcup! Do you know what the problem is and how long it’s likely to take to resolve as I am working from home and currently cannot do any work?!

  • KeithHollins Keith Hollins (@KeithHollins) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia you’re losing customers here in DA146PW 6PW. What’s happening to our broadband service? Third drop out in last week

  • billosmond bill osmond (@billosmond) reported

    @virginmedia There’s no point checking if there are issues in our area, I have been having issues all week and the message is the same “no issues in your area”. When I phone the team they say please be patient etc etc. The bottom line is the service is just not good enough at the moment.

  • MarkDesignTutor Mark Bailey (@MarkDesignTutor) reported

    So, @virginmedia and @O2 you assured consumers affected by the ongoing outage caused by the landlord preventing you from accessing a mast to carry out repairs, that we would be given an update on 26th August. You have less than 6 hours now. Looking forward to good news. Thanks

  • Rebecca_is_Eco Rebecca Mills (@Rebecca_is_Eco) reported

    @virginmedia no Internet since lunch time, update says fix by 18.15 but it's now later than that, can I get an update please?

  • TheGlerp Rob (@TheGlerp) reported

    @virginmedia I've spoken with support on that number multiple times in the last 3 days. All they can do is request a tech callback, which never transpires. An engineer visit is booked in 10 days (!) though I don't believe there's any hardware issue here. Something was changed on the network.

  • mcginty46 Mcginty (@mcginty46) reported

    @virginmedia Had to phone your shower of a company again...just got back from holiday and no broadband..AGAIN....just 2 weeks after ur lot didn't show up ( confirmed appointment) to fix this problem in the first place...how do you manage to be so crap?

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported

    @virginmedia I just signed up to the package which include an O2 SIM. The problem is that the O2 network so far is not useable. Why pay £25 for unlimited data when you cannot use any data due to lack of bandwidth?. Can I cancel the SIM and keep the virgin deal?

  • Hanna93x HannaMcC (@Hanna93x) reported

    @virginmedia my mobile Internet has been terrible the past few weeks and now I can only use my phone with WiFi! Can anyone advise on whats going on?

  • rlswilliams Richard Williams 🇺🇦 (@rlswilliams) reported

    @virginmedia Still no connection following your advice and timings. Can you provide me with more information and an updated resolution time please?

  • gcxb Dãn (@gcxb) reported

    2 weeks of the same issue with the wifi this is ridiculous @virginmedia

  • rlswilliams Richard Williams 🇺🇦 (@rlswilliams) reported

    @Bugginout_co_uk @virginmedia Any news at all? Their fault finder states a resolution by 15:00... The app also can't see my router (Hub 3), WiFi obviously on when looking for it. Flashing arrows...
