@virginmedia Yes. Service is restored at the moment but understand it’s an ongoing issue. Usually a short outage (9 minutes) but this was 25mins this time.

For a while now, I’ve been dissatisfied with the performance of my elderly rented @virginmedia TIVO TV box. Tonight it ceased to function, so I phoned for a fix. I didn’t get a fix. Instead the operator tried to sell me a new one at extra cost. Not a happy bunny!

@virginmedia do you know if there if there are connection problems in the Cambridge area? We've been offline for about 45mins now. Done everything required, and nothing.

@virginmedia - Hello, for some reason it seems my phone has been disconnected and I cannot even get a signal to see what’s happened 🤔

@virginmedia claim on my ever-increasing monthly bill: “Looks like you’ve made some changes”. All I did was complain that their TV box wasn’t working. Still haven’t received the new one either. Customer service? Forget it.

@virginmedia it’s apparent you have a problem but you are not being honest about it. Can someone please advise when your email system will be fixed. No service for 24 hours now, made a requested password change, an adviser also changed my password. Even been given a fault number.

@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???

@virginmedia internet down in cb22 . system checker says nothing is wrong and fiancé is fast asleep (and knows all the passwords) so can’t get through to report the issue- usual 12.30 drop (5mins ish) happened and then it cut off completely at 4.20am

Hey @virginmedia why is my Internet up and down like a yoyo this morning? Are your systems breaking down under the load of people completing the census or something?

@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.

@virginmedia is there a problem with credentials today. I can’t login to VM and I know my user/pswd is correct.

@virginmedia Yeah it's not WiFi because it's affecting my pc which is connected via an Ethernet cable to the back of the hub. Just now it went down and came back up but there was no change to the lights on the hub.

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

@emmalouwillcox @virginmedia 😩 I’ve also been a victim in the past and their customer service is awful. Good luck!

@steveeejg It looks like to get a basic fibre service it might be around £25 and for higher speed from about £40 monthly. One test is will they charge to plug a home phone into a router and allow a landline no to be transferred? Virgin Media charges, putting the monthly rate up to about £55

Had a big argument with @virginmedia today. On why there is no set channel for @GBNEWS. Feeling concerned they are clamping down on free speach. I have to go on line for it. 😬

(@D4Ndilioness) reported
@virginmedia I did... Apparently this was not showing on their screen and everything was showing as 'fine' so it was a bit frustrating because neither using WiFi or my mobile network (other company) would allowed me to access my account. A virtual technician was booked this week tho 🤞🏼 😔

@virginmedia I’ve tried for nearly 2 weeks now to upgrade my account through your website, it never lets me. Keeps saying error. I’ve tried to call and been cut off also. I’m out of contract and paying a silly amount for what we have, can you help please?

@virginmedia Super info. Thanks VM. Your team on the phoneline were clearly bamboozled by the S#*t show that was my account that they put me on hold... for 39 minutes and then blind dumped me to a random agent in retentions. world class service

@virginmedia it's no wonder your live chat queues are so long when your agents take over 7 minutes between responses... Broken 360 box for a week (unable to find hard drive CS6002) over 2 hours on live chat so far across multiple days.

@virginmedia If Nathan is working today, I’d really appreciate it if we could sort this out asap. I’ve been trying to cancel since March and not sure how much more I can take.

@virginmedia 10 days! You know the issue but just excuses about access. Absolutely no confidence as to when someone will get around to resolving it
