    @virginmedia It drops out for a few minutes, then restarts, there is nothing I can see on your service page that helps with that. I'll try the factory reset, its the only thing I haven't tried.

  • red_dog14
    Steve Barlow (@red_dog14) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @dannyboy71 @skytv Good luck with that Dan @virginmedia without doubt the worse company I’ve ever had to deal with. Absolute shambles of a company who don’t give a flying toss about customer service. Can’t even be arsed to respond even if u put a complaint in writing.

    @virginmedia To seem to pick live football for your outages - is this a coincidence ? As you understand by frustration - what are you doing to reduce the frequency of loss of service ?

  • DaveHarwood1
    Dave Harwood (@DaveHarwood1) reported from South Normanton, England

    @virginmedia Why is it so damn frustrating to actually speak to someone regarding a mobile issue?

  • iamj_armstrong
    James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t an outage. I have been told it may be a line fault but the hub was fine yesterday afternoon

  • jonathansc
    Jonathan SC ن Esq. (@jonathansc) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Good to know you technicians are aware - less good not to know whether they are actually doing anything to fix this

  • stagladanddad
    Russell Morrell (@stagladanddad) reported from Annesley, England

    Hey @virginmedia my landline has stopped working again This is the second time I've had this problem now You'd have thought with you putting the prices up your service would be better?

  • forestmatth79
    Matt H (@forestmatth79) reported from Wilford, England

    @virginmedia down again in NG11 no compensation for the last time can’t get through on the phones to speak to anyone. Not good enough

  • paulwitneyphoto
    paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia No, I don't want to do things by text, I want you to ring us, (an English speaking person not a call centre in Delhi) I am a paying dissatisfied customer!🤬

  • iamj_armstrong
    James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia the internet you installed yesterday has stopped working and you can’t get anyone out until Tuesday? If I want to escalate the issue then it will take 3-5 working days? Can anyone help me?

  • lee0510
    Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia please tell me how to speak to someone in your organisation! I can’t get through on line as it doesn’t recognise me even though you bill me and your phone system won’t allow me to speak to anyone. Customer service is diabolical.

  • paulwitneyphoto
    paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia Adding my wife's phone to the internet/tv package which should include 1, 5G phone, you need to get your customer service sorted out and people who speak English to a higher standard or better still have English speaker #dissatisfiedcustomer with @virginmedia

  • ChrisMaltby
    Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Always seems to come back after a router reboot. Maybe you could send me a new one, see if that resolves the issue?

    Billy (@navanac1982) reported

    @DaveRutt2 @virginmedia I've just cancelled my home move request as they gave me a new 2 year contract (which I was never told about) that doubles in price after a year. This is my first time moving, been with virgin for almost 18 years. They won't be getting installed at my new home

    @virginmedia 2nd outage in a week in Ztge EX1 area. You are definitely the worse company in the world. Cannot wait till I can cancel my direct debit and new use you again

  • allypetrie81
    Ally (@allypetrie81) reported

    @virginmedia must be the most incompetent and negligent company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. Account hacked and a fraudulent email now linked to my account for a month now. Zero help offered and no interest in removing the email. Anyone else had this?

  • robiand
    Rob (@robiand) reported

    @virginmedia TV and Broadband broken for over a week after your engineers damaged the cable to my house whilst installing a new customer. Repair should have been Saturday, was cancelled and rescheduled for yesterday, cancelled! and now cancelled again today. I’m moving to @skytv

  • ghotographyuk
    Gary Hurdman LRPS (@ghotographyuk) reported

    The worst customer experience in trying to get help when their expensive service isn't working is @virginmedia. A black hole of "linking acounts" and recursive questions that ulitmately fail, just to try and report an issue. Do not make the mistake of becoming their customer

  • GGWilliams72
    GW (@GGWilliams72) reported

    @virginmedia @Bomber19631 I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
