    @virginmedia On the basis that I can’t get through to anyone in Virgin and the online help isn’t helping, will anyone respond to my Tweet of 15 hours ago?

    Hannah🌻 (@HannahTwine) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia our internet has been down for a while now, can you please check to see how long it’s going to be down for? Postcode area of GL50?

    @virginmedia hi there, our hub 3 constantly has a red light on suggesting it’s overheating but it’s on the floor, uncovered, out of sunlight and not near anything else. Also have connection issues - have tried to fix using link but says I’m not at my address. I am. Thanks.

    Hi @virginmedia I need some help please. My parents internet has gone down, customer services say they need a replacement hub taking up to 7 days to arrive. My mother is disabled and my dad is her carer, both isolating. How can we get the hub delivered quicker pls?

    @vmbusinesshelp how can you claim to have a 24/7 fault support hotline if every time I call i either get cut off or after 5-10 mins of hold music I get a dial tone then silence? How can it be that VMBusiness has even worse customer service and reliability than residential?

    @virginmedia there appear to be broadband issues in my area (Gloucester, GL2). Internet speeds are very slow, for both wifi and ethernet connections. Please advise.

    Lord Lefty cultural attachè for Gloucestershire (@the_fbpe) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia OK thanks I pay £110 a month for my service as someone who subsists on a pension and disability benefit this is a big commitment and yet every time I pick up the phone to you I am lied to, for example we are receiving a lot more calls than usual, this is a permanent refrain

    Krystyna Wynn (@KW_GuinnessH) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia just been on hold to speak with someone for 1 hour 5 minutes and finally was getting through then “the other person has cleared” we have no WiFi since you upgraded me earlier, please help

    James Clarke (@Fun_and_James) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia hi - I’ve just ordered a family pack of Virgin mobile SIMs because O2 coverage is poor where we live… I’ve only just read about the merger. Does your network still run on Vodafone or are you now O2 also?

  • WattsChelt
    Ian Watson (@WattsChelt) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia You asked me to keep you posted, I’ve had no response. It certainly appears to be a problem with the hub because the WiFi is not really performing well. I’ve got three TiVo boxes and a C6 + broadband and it seems no one cares. Quite poor.

    @Lucy_Hamson @virginmedia My whole WiFi has been shit recently x

  • the_fbpe
    Lord Lefty cultural attachè for Gloucestershire (@the_fbpe) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia 1. I never get to speak to someone who speaks English as their mother tongue, 2. Despite being a customer for a number of years and spending more than £100 a month, I have been hit with a late payment charge because I had a heart attack and was in hospital,

  • MichaelAlanHunt
    The Michael Hunt (@MichaelAlanHunt) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia Your estimated fix time was 3pm, then 4pm, then 5pm, then 7pm. You,ve probably changed it to 9p now, having failed to fix your faulty network

    @virginmedia I want a monitored email address, I couldn't even sign in to my online account tonight

    @virginmedia I’d appreciate a call please to discuss the lack of customer care from your teams when dealing with a family bereavement #noempathy

    Original Wild (@wild_original) reported from Churchdown, England

    @virginmedia Had an email to say my Netflix A/C has been cancelled even though I’ve paid you my subscription - no one on live chat for almost an hour now to help - anyone there?!

  • joe_joeharper
    Joe Harper (@joe_joeharper) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia love lying about putting you on a rolling contract and then hitting you with a £200 pound cancellation fee when you try to cancel after you’re forced to move home. Nice work!

    dawnieC (@CorkinDawn) reported

    @virginmedia Plus convenient for you to get out of the compensation clause, restoring it for a few hours. The latest update showing is fix by 5 August at 16:08, so another whole day without internet. Is this a new fault or the last one not fixed properly?

  • PeteSamuels5
    Pete Samuels (@PeteSamuels5) reported

    @DorzetRob @Artemisapphire Ditto here. We're between 3 towns. Sod all signal. Had to get 'wi-fi calling' on the mobile phones, to make mobile calls via the broadband. Smarty seems to work OK. Old copper land line now shut off by Virgin Media.

  • Ca33ieKins
    Caz (@Ca33ieKins) reported

    @virginmedia Horrendous service! Complete outage all day today. TQ area. No apology. Just the usual standard dialogue. Not acceptable.

  • wfc2000uk
    pat (@wfc2000uk) reported

    @LutzSchueler @virginmedia of urgency, it’s happened quite a few times over last few years, I been a customer for 20 years now. Your customer service said need to £700, cancellation fee. Which I’m not willing to pay. I look forward to your reply.

  • charles_forsyth
    Charles Forsyth (@charles_forsyth) reported

    @biggle1908 @SBarrettBar @zeninternet I have both Zen and Virgin Media (two fibres). Zen is symmetric but VM is not (here), despite Zen being half the price. Symmetry (or not) depends on the underlying infrastructure supplier. VM has been great over many years, fairly usual tech support; Zen has been excellent and the tech support is very techy. ("Symmetric" here means upload and download rate is the same; often upload is much slower.)

    No work phone for 3 weeks, Over 20 calls to “Customer Service”, AI that doesn’t work, Technical support that doesn’t work, Incompetence at a level impossible to describe, And no call back since Monday. I’ve had same number for 32 years-until I went to @virginmedia

  • Temuing

    @virginmedia why does my Internet go down around 11.00am every day for 10 to 15 minutes?

  • Navigator429
    The Navigator (@Navigator429) reported

    @virginmedia hi. I am an ex customer of yours but it seems my account is still active. I keep getting emails alerting me to someone trying to log into my account. How do I request my account to be deleted? You shouldn’t hold an active account for me if I’m not a live customer.
