    @virginmedia have to be *the* most unreliable WiFi providers. 2 days with no internet and it’s still not working!

  • Weaverfooty14
    Michael James Weaver (@Weaverfooty14) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia recently joined virgin for broadband and it isn't cheap its amazing when it works but every night recently it has gone down and when you check the app it says engineers are working on resolving an issue is there a update with this please as its so frustrating

  • Rex_Comms
    Terri (@Rex_Comms) reported from London, England

    Sad in these times when a friend is forced to move home because her mortgage company won’t help her & now @virginmedia are charging her well over £200 as a disconnection fee. To leave a home she doesn’t actually want to leave.

    @virginmedia Brilliant get out clause @virginmedia. What you fail to realise is that when your so called service goes down for hours at a time, over the course of time amounts to so, so so much more than 48 hours!! Roll on switching of providers.

    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia can you tell me why we had internet issues for the last three days which are now solved, but I still cannot get Netflix, iPlayer, Amazon prime video or Now Tv. I am sick of paying for extra tv services I cannot access. Would you like to refund me for these days?

  • ABSiddiki
    Abu Siddiki (@ABSiddiki) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Well…either an early cancellation or resolve the issue that I am having at your expense and not mine :)

  • MrGarySmith
    Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia You keep sending me emails and texts confirming what we agreed which are wrong…still how many times can you get this wrong… for a communications company you sure are bad at it!

  • elthampalacegay

    Can you please just sort out the broadband issues in SE9 @virginmedia Been ongoing since the 30th with timeline of resolution continually moving out.

  • willhenrywarren
    William Warren (@willhenrywarren) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @trickythecat Will affected users get a refund for the lack of service? We haven't had internet for a week.

  • FoodwiseWomen
    Foodwise Woman (@FoodwiseWomen) reported from Kensington, England

    I’m trying to live chat to @virginmedia to see if they can install a Hub 5 router in our area as Apple reporting privacy problems with existing router. I’m on hold for a ‘live’ agent but their Terri Triage BOT requires me to press the ‘Yes I’ll hold button’ every 40secs. 😱😱😱

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.

  • GabrielaLungu
    Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Right… in the meantime I trust you won’t charge us. No service should at least mean no pay. If not also a bonus for the disruption and the frustration caused 😑

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @AbzAaron @virginmedia Even better… if you don’t play along, nobody else will cancel it. You can’t even hang up on the sales pitch.

  • nicolas_laborie
    Nicolas Laborie ( He/Him ) (@nicolas_laborie) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Whats is happening ?? Been put in a queue only to have the CV phone put down on me twice without even talking to an operator ? What do I need to do to speak to someone??

  • markhayo
    MarcHayo (@markhayo) reported from Kensington, England

    Well done to the engineers @virginmedia for sorting out my internet in Earl’s Court (ahead of time as usual). I appreciate that people have genuine problems, but we need to keep a sense of proportion. Especially compared with brave Ukrainians who face far worse troubles than us.

  • tlcko1882
    Burnley Dave:Not woke just human.💙🌈🍺🇪🇺 (@tlcko1882) reported from London, England

    @journokeith @virginmedia Good as in they acknowledged your existence was what I meant. That's how their "customer services" is set up, they don't have the staff based in the UK to deal with it and all they can do is what they are doing.

  • citigirly
    lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia They said this issue is affecting my connection as I seem to be connecting to 5 something not 2.4 ghz can anyone help.

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Oh, they did let me cancel, but I had to answer about 3 “last question”s before they proceeded 5 minute response time on chat, took me nearly two hours, after the 4 hours it took to connect an agent. We could get a contract with a credit check in 5 minutes.

  • Veganforever67

    @virginmedia I think I may actually be free from #Virginmedia at last other times I phoned up I got someone who just basically lied to me and extending my contract but this time I phoned up to cancel the contract and actually spoke to a very nice man so hopefully it's all done

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia This issue has been going on since August. Loss of power for hours on end is adding up to several days. I am currently on hold which I've been doing for 30 minutes. Shocking @Se7 residents please take note of @virginmedia

    @sme30 @virginmedia @NetflixUK Bloody hell. Would have been easier to cancel Netflix! 🤦 Maybe try and upgrade on ur box and see if Netflix now comes as standard with upgrades.... Then cancel the stand alone one? 😬🤷

  • itsmeitsmeandy
    AM (@itsmeitsmeandy) reported

    @bt_uk and by any chance if you @giffgaff can actually get of your backsides and at the very least give me a engineer appointment date been waiting a month now nothing maybe i should cut out the middle man and contact your friends @virginmedia directly

  • AlexBMastro
    AlexFFS (@AlexBMastro) reported

    @virginmedia I find it unacceptable that a service that costs £50 per month has an outage on a weekly basis... current outage has been going on since Friday night, nearly 24 hours already without a working connection. how is this possible ? And on a weekend as well

  • alanfdunlop
    A Dunlop Landscapes 🌳⚒️🧱 (@alanfdunlop) reported

    @ifeeltheneed_ Mine has been offline for the last two months, had an upgrade of virgin media that came with a new WiFi connection. That coincided with my surgery, managed to have the new hub up & running with some help but haven’t been able to access the solar inverter to reset so far.

  • djdylhen
    Dylhen (@djdylhen) reported

    @virginmedia Can you advise on what's happening with services in B30 please?Broadband has gone down.

  • Lukeytoons
    Luke Hayes (@Lukeytoons) reported

    Why can't you cancel a contract with @virginmedia like you can a subscription service. I.e you select you want to cancel and from the contract end date you lose service. Keep being told i need to phone 30 days before #cancel #contract

    @keithapearson @virginmedia That must be for the orange idiot??

    @virginmedia You should be keeping an eye out for this sort of criminal activity, creates profiles for most large UK companies so they can reply to any complaints and get the customer to download software so they can compensation…and rob them. Report them to X

    @virginmedia I have dm’d you the issue.

  • Martinayres65o1
    Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported

    @virginmedia it’s now been an hour since the promised call from you. Given we have been without broadband & TV since Friday I would have thought you would make it a priority. Seems Virgin doesn’t care about its customers. Happy to take money whilst delivering no service
