  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia I’m constantly just being passed from pillar to post. Not one person has taken any ownership of trying to solve this issue.

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia No I don’t. WiFi is off again though. We had one night reprieve then back to the usual pile of garbage.

  • Robin1989 Robin (@Robin1989) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia is #virginmedia internet gone down again. Wa5 area.

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    @gs_lawrenson @virginmedia I bet my struggle has been about a similar time. It’s the shoddiest service ever. Paying for 350 mbps. It was 7.4 today. Never seen it above 125. They are literally stealing my money 😤 Every response from them is scripted. Woeful. It’s driving me mad!

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    No WiFi again all last night. Off again already today @virginmedia continues to be THE worst provider. At least 10 phone calls. Engineer visit. Still a pile of rubbish.

  • DarrenGotham darren gotham (@DarrenGotham) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia how long are we going to be having problems for? Reboot of hub 3 & still green lights. How about an upgrade to hub 4/5??

  • michelle_cobley Michelle Cobley (@michelle_cobley) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia another day of disruption from @virginmedia with no internet and extremely poor customer service being bounced around and phone cut off!! 😡

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called 7 times in just over a week. Pitiful service.

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    Another evening. No broadband. Five out of the last nine nights with absolutely no service. @virginmedia you are THE worst service provider I’ve ever had the misfortune to deal with. Appalling.

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia No I haven’t. You’ve let me down?? Why should I be chasing you??

  • frogboyflips Andrew Murray (@frogboyflips) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia It doesn't let me 'Test your hub' as says service isn't available right now. This is a business account by the way.

  • Emmalouh501 Emma (@Emmalouh501) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia An engineer was supposed to be with me between 12:00 - 16:00 today. Am I to take it they’re not coming? There’s a £25 cancellation fee if I am not in / cancel… I expect that £25 off my next bill please?

  • EverydayKnitter EverydayKnitter (@EverydayKnitter) reported from Halton, England

    @KnittingWyrd @virginmedia @CommunityFibre I've just been hearing about it. It sounds awful. And such terrible customer service too

  • andrewmolyneux @andrewmolyneux@mastodon.world (@andrewmolyneux) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia I called yesterday - after 2 calls totalling about 80 minutes the customer service person said she couldn’t process the termination due to a technical error and would call me back in half an hour. I haven’t heard anything since then.

  • AckersStorm Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia is broadband still down?

  • WiJayWhelan Jase Whelan (@WiJayWhelan) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia Still down

  • andrewmolyneux @andrewmolyneux@mastodon.world (@andrewmolyneux) reported from Halton, England

    OK I haven’t tweeted in months but I’ve now been trying to cancel my @virginmedia broadband since Friday. First via WhatsApp, then I gave up and phoned but I’m getting the runaround. Please let me cancel your overpriced service and hopefully never do business with you again 😡

  • DarrenGotham darren gotham (@DarrenGotham) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia no broadband connection at home. Cannot get app to connect, cannot get connection to help page. Router rebooted. Need help.

  • Kate223110 KateCap ❤️ (@Kate223110) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia Wired connection never worked. I’m wanting to cancel

  • SamMcCartney Sam McCartney 🇺🇦🥧 (@SamMcCartney) reported from Halton, England

    @dazzle961 @virginmedia It’s well ****: mine isn’t I don’t think

    @virginmedia outage again in Nottingham. Reminds me I must switch to another provider soon because Virgin Media is unbelievably unreliable.

  • YamesAlexander yames (@YamesAlexander) reported

    @burningfury247 @virginmedia Go to downdetector and compare Virgin Media with sky or BT, it's terrible. Planning on switching soon.

  • JWilko1983 Wilko (@JWilko1983) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is appalling. Nearly 5 hrs of phone calls in a month to try and sort my account, from the incorrect package, inability to link my virgin media/O2 ID to my account number to watch Virgin TV Go to now promised phone calls that don’t materialise

  • WardFish5tony tony (@WardFish5tony) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm still having problems logging into my sky sports app on my phone. I can watch every channel on the TV go app for virgin media including TNT sports but it still won't allow me to view sky sports.

  • Bullpup2 Samantha Stancomb (@Bullpup2) reported

    @virginmedia Yes...but it doesn't go into mine. I had to sort out a new Virgin media/O2 login, download the app, get a message ten times to Gmail to click on, get a code to my phone, put in account information and get access to my husband's account!

  • mcfcfxp Mcfcfxp (@mcfcfxp) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Media Outage Update - ID: F011915097 We're pleased to tell you this issue is now fixed. Best wishes, the Virgin Media Team Yet it’s still not working

  • notdiprincess diana smith (@notdiprincess) reported

    @virginMedia Please can anyone give a phone number to contact Virgin Media that will be answered by a person. I’ve tried their chat bot thing sent in a direct message to no avail. They close down the chat saying resolved but nothing changes

  • Leftdoubleclick Ruth Whalley (@Leftdoubleclick) reported

    @LutzSchueler @O2 @virginmedia Dear Lutz, we are desperately trying to re ew our contract with you …it is impossible to do this on line! We have been passed around from this person to that person. Please can you help yes ?

  • JJAMESSTEVENSON 𝙹𝙰𝙼𝙴𝚂 𝚂𝚃𝙴𝚅𝙴𝙽𝚂𝙾𝙽 🎮 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@JJAMESSTEVENSON) reported

    Think it might be time to move to @SkyUK from @virginmedia over 20 years of service & this is the worst it has been broadband down nearly everyday & takes weeks for "Repairs"

  • CharlesRoskilly Charles Roskilly (@CharlesRoskilly) reported

    @virginmedia I already have a Virgin Media login, why do I need a Virgin Media O2 ID?
