    @virginmedia Hi. Please read the thread. One App doesn't work properly, my TV box is generally fine. From a quick Google I can see it is a problem for other people with Virgin Media TiVo boxes too where the @All4 app doesn't load programmes. I can access the app and all the menu screens.

    @virginmedia I was supposed to get texts telling me what was going on. Instead I have had to do the chasing. My system is still not working.

    liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia Amazing how you won’t sort out the problem with the account holder but you’ll speak to someone else about the account without the account holder’s permission!

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia how long will it take to fix my internet connection. CO1 area. Main problem is a slow speed for emails.

    @virginmedia I have rung twice waited over 2 hours and still can’t sort out a request to cancel an account for someone who has learning difficulties and is escaping domestic violence. Disgraceful

    @virginmedia So, 3 phone calls over 50 mins all cut off! All I wanted to do was pay off a handset and upgrade a contract. Customer service 0/10!

    Dave. (@Notonyournell10) reported

    @virginmedia I am following you and there’s no message icon. I just called again and was told the appointment was booked incorrectly and nobody can attend until Tuesday. It’s an absolute joke and I’ve raised an official complaint.

  • MattB_MUFC
    Matt (@MattB_MUFC) reported

    @Fiercely_FE @virginmedia Yeah for some reason that's in the extra TV channels package rather than sports, have the same issue in the NFL season as that's what they put Redzone on

  • Alisonc50385941
    Alison cain (@Alisonc50385941) reported

    @BENEFITS_NEWS I don't have a mobile. Virgin switched us over to digital so no calls if it goes down.Phoned them and told them I can't call for help it if goes down, they installed another phone thats works when the rest don't. Helpful Virgin media for once.

  • Louiseboxall
    Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported

    @virginmedia Any idea when?? It’s been over a week and there was an outage recently which they “fixed” but the virgin hasn’t worked since this!! M43 area.

  • Louiseboxall
    Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported

    @virginmedia Yep, we’ve done all that. It says intermittent service. It’s been like this over a week. Now it’s worse! Even spoke to one of the customer service people on Friday, the issue is worse and we were told unless they get 360 then Virgin won’t help. Absolute disgrace!

  • kimtaylor18
    Kim Taylor (@kimtaylor18) reported

    Apparently now it’s not me it’s a network issue in the area… again!!!! Only taken a day to figure that out 🫣 awful @virginmedia

  • vickiferris
    Vicky Leigh (@vickiferris) reported

    @virginmedia Fingers crossed for Wednesday and Saturday and hopefully not more broken promises. @virginmedia need to send me all the transcripts because I cannot wait to go through them.

    @virginmedia It states there is an 'intermittent signal'. Does this mean an engineer is looking into it?

  • MarttechSol
    Marttech Solutions (@MarttechSol) reported

    We have not received or seen any further updates from Virgin Media. According to their Service Status page, an issue does still exist but the fix time has not changed. If any customers are still experiencing issues, we would recommend getting in touch with them directly.
