    @virginmedia @camcanary Broadband Internet just disappeared in CB24 5UR. Service status says no issues. Any ideas?

  • alliorton
    alliorton (@alliorton) reported from Milton, England

    @martinsaxby @virginmedia They claim some are shit on the website but when I dialed 150 and pressed all the buttons it said they were all closed and hung up. So much for #workingfromhome 😔

  • tombowran
    Tom Bowran (@tombowran) reported from Willingham, England

    ironic that the hold music on @virginmedia ‘s “help line” contains the lyrics “please don’t let me down”. The very reason i’m calling for the upteenth time. 100 hours since i was promised a manager calling back in 48hrs, and 48hrs since they said it would only be another 24 hours

  • LizzieSagoo

    @virginmedia It does now (6pm). Do you know why we don’t have service when others in area do? We have tried rebooting

  • ir_427
    cj hubbard (@ir_427) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia We're on M100 fibre. Speed isn't the issue. The issue is that whole thing stops working for no clear reason; no warning lights, no issues on the service check website. It takes out all the devices at once. And it's been getting worse since the bill increase was announced.

  • nleaney
    Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia Showing on the status page now (along with Cable TV outage)

  • lizziespeller
    Elizabeth Speller (@lizziespeller) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @pbw1000 @virginmedia Same problem here, same timing, also in CB4. Told it was an area problem. But now told it’s fixed so not their problem so must be ours. Next call told it might be their problem! Daughter is NHS Dr trying to work online @virginmedia

  • Speak2Doctor

    @virginmedia Hi having issues since the past few days. Was told this will be resolved today. Kindly help.

  • LizzieSagoo

    @virginmedia our internet is still down. Website says there is a fault, but our neighbours Virgin service was restored yesterday evening. I can’t find tel number or online chat on your website to find out more. Pls can we have an update

  • kelvin_fagan
    Kelvin Fagan (@kelvin_fagan) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia What is the current status of the outage in #cambridge ? please. I guess its all down to the roadworks on #miltonroad I wonder what other utilities will get damaged over the next 2 years of chaos in the #cb4 area of the city.

  • nleaney
    Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia @JohnJef51763960 I’ve added log files to the Virgin community and have been assured that someone will be looking at the issue. From the logging feedback received suggest this is not a customer premises issue.

  • Techno_boy_Gili
    Bertie Bird draws (@Techno_boy_Gili) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Fix time was by 15:00. Yea and now it’s 15:00 I have service. Convenient. This happens all to often. 5 plus hours of no service. Special after speaking with the customer service team about the so called service improvements. Where are these so called service improvements???

  • nleaney
    Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @JohnJef51763960 @virginmedia My neighbour & I are now monitoring & recording the outages. There has been 4 today - all about 10 minutes each. We’re seeing the same problems at the same time so there must be a common fault. It needs @virginmedia to investigate their equipment...

  • JoeWalla23
    joe waller (@JoeWalla23) reported from Histon, England

    @virginmedia still trying to actually speak to customer service since before XMAS! being ridiculously overly charged every month for calls it’s impossible for me to make as I haven’t got a house phone! Horrendous service!! This month £117!

  • JayDThePlumber
    JayD the Yiddo (@JayDThePlumber) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve signed up but received no email from VM to verify my email. To add to that my broadband has gone down as well.

  • LwtEmmaBird
    Sarah Harbour (@LwtEmmaBird) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia I'm not even a customer anymore. They're a menace even for those of us who can't be scammed by them.

  • AmanCoonar
    Aman Coonar (@AmanCoonar) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Sorry but your Wi-fi delivery, reliability and customer service is a joke

  • nleaney
    Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @JohnJef51763960 @virginmedia I didn’t see that issue. My most recent outage was 18.00-18.10 yesterday. No issue was reported on the status page.

  • MarkLittlewood

    @virginmedia you are not working again.

  • caute
    Andrew J. Brown (Making Footprints Not Blueprints) (@caute) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    .@virginmedia Greetings. How on earth is a person supposed to speak to you? I can’t change anything meaningful on your website & your phone system won’t accept my password. So you just keep charging me for out of date kit & poor service. CALL ME or DM me please.

    @virginmedia What's happening with the virgin TV v6 tivo box? I know the streaming channels are going on June 2nd but is it the whole box shutting down if you don't upgrade? Cause we don't want the 360 box in our house

  • tomstocktontees
    Tom-Stockton. No DMs without asking please. (@tomstocktontees) reported

    @virginmedia #virginmedia made a complaint to these clowns after having three weeks of a locked account. Their response was “login to your account” #fuckinguseless

  • milnerj11
    Janey (@milnerj11) reported

    @virginmedia renewal time and I am dumbfounded by the increase! Apparently because I am not an O2 customer I won’t get the discounts I got. So being a Virgin customer since the 1990s doesn’t count then? Clearly not. What a way to retain existing customers #bye

  • lauravince1
    Laura Vince (@lauravince1) reported

    @VirginMediaIE upgraded mobile as im a existing customer but have been sent a new number and sim card for the phone. Will my existing virgin media sim not work?

  • RabArmstrong77
    rab1977 (@RabArmstrong77) reported

    @virginmedia Just moved home. No broadband or tv. Service supposed to be connected yesterday. Been on hold for over 2hrs last night with no answer and now today 46mins and counting

  • AshronDesigns
    Ashron Designs (@AshronDesigns) reported

    @virginmedia I have decided to cancel after nearly 20 years! Tried live chat and all they did was reduce the package to reduce the price.

  • burgcolin
    Colin (@burgcolin) reported

    @virginmedia no Netflix or apps working! Rang but still not working

  • OCP_84
    Owain (@OCP_84) reported

    @virginmedia @quidco @Top_CashBack ...which always inevitably routes the customer to cancellations after being offered an initial substandard rip off deal. You are treating your current members like dirt. You really have to review your retention initiatives, and put offers in place for EXISTING CUSTOMERS

  • Ester_Laura83
    ester83 (@Ester_Laura83) reported

    @Dominiho7 @virginmedia same, thought I'd be able to use the inpost locker down the road, we've 3 evri drop off shops in the village but min 25 min to a yodel one.

  • GarethYOURCXC
    GarethYOURCXC (@GarethYOURCXC) reported

    @OCP_84 @virginmedia @tntsports That is just bonkers! Clearly "valuable" is being used in the wrong context. Their 'new' acquisition numbers are more important that long term customer loyalty/value.
