    @virginmedia How can I phone 151 when my phone line isn’t working! And yes, I’ve dialled the 0345 number on many occasions yet still can’t speak to anyone!!no doubt I will hear from you when I cancel my direct debit and move to another supplier!

    @virginmedia why does your password reset function not work? Page says it’s down for maintenance when you click the reset link, been like this since I joined you in August and I need access to change my DD date

  • Coops_71
    Elenita (@Coops_71) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve waited 12 hours and still have the same issue

  • Lshire_Laird
    The Lanarkshire Laird (@Lshire_Laird) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Pretty sure you could be asking fir my details in a DM. Otherwise, what was the point in replying to me in the first place. Never mind, I’ll stick to keep calling.

  • jamboross
    Ross R MacLean (@jamboross) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia As a mark of respect,have you given us all the day off from the internet? Nothing working again!!! Getting pretty fed up with this, and yes I've checked your service online.

  • ChristianBunga7
    bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Hey @virginmedia it’d be pretty cool if you guys fixed my internet at some point. Like i know I’ve only spent £30 trying to call you guys and I did get to speak to this nice angry man on your support line who hung up on me immediately (which is a bargain)

  • tofolo_1
    David A (@tofolo_1) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia how do I contact the help team? Recently joined and trying to setup billing / online account says to call you. But 0345 is 30p a minute. Can't find webchat, can't find text thing, don't have a live landline yet. I can access the dark web easier!

    @virginmedia WiFi down? , app down?

  • ChristianBunga7
    bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yeah, I’ve already done this. I had a guy sent out to take a look and he just left without fixing it. Mind I can’t use most of these support things cause I was never sent my customer number or contract information. This does also make it so I’m unable to cancel my contract @Ofcom

  • AlexxAdair
    Alexander Adair 🌙 (@AlexxAdair) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia It wont even let me run a speed test. When I go to status check it says no problem found but when I call I says intermittent issues??

  • MXK1000
    Dave (@MXK1000) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    Guys supposedly from @bt_uk going round the doors in EK saying my neighbours have complained of slow internet speeds. That's ok I'm on VirginMedia. They asked me to do a speed test on my phone. I told them to piss off. 1 I'm not a BT customer 2 I'm not your data source

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, it's been like this since last Thursday. Our Tivo box is constantly flashing and apps don't work as we have no Internet probably. Internet not worked since then. Its a real issue as we need Internet to work.

  • Lealea2009
    Pauline Campbell-Jones💫🏁😽🦖 (@Lealea2009) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia broadband and TV down for 12 hours, having to tether to my mobile so that I can work from home today. 🙁

  • AndrewTOG
    Andrew Bradley (@AndrewTOG) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Well no @F1 the. Thanks to @virginmedia failing and not connecting. No customer support open and no response online… what dark age company is this ?

  • ChristianBunga7
    bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia The checks tell me there are issues. regardless I don’t really care about wider issues in my area. I’ve been sent in a loop for the past month and it’s still broken, I’ve been paying for this time and not receiving a service - this is not the first time either @Ofcom

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, no, it initially says no issues in area on testing hub it says there's an intermittent problem with connection and come back in 18 hours!

  • spongebath63
    Willem_Wikkelspies (@spongebath63) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia What is going on with your customer care(?) line? I call 789, I get an automated voice telling me that calls are not being connected to this number and I'm told to call 789 to speak to a member of the team, so i call 789, I get an automated voice.........!

  • PotatoAimZero2
    Respawn Doesn't Respond (@PotatoAimZero2) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia Connection keeps cutting every 45 or so minutes. Receiving 0 to no network what so ever at any giving time. "Unstable network". Before you asked yes the router has been reset and tested multiple times. Turned off and on and yet still the same issue.

  • oletalk
    Colin M (@oletalk) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    What's going on with @virginmedia broadband just now? Just managed to find out on 150 that they seem to be doing (emergency?) maintenance of some sort. Is this how they justify "returning to the office"?! 🤪

  • naveedasghar
    Naveed Asghar (@naveedasghar) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia @stephenblack32 Shocking to say the outage fix could take up to 5th Jan in Glasgow. over a week with no internet during the festive period is unacceptable. I will be cancelling my virgin fibre today.

    @bmstewart2004 The modern equivalent of **** Turpin,I've successfully switched to Virgin Media after 20 yrs with Sky who demonstrated less than zero customer retention acumen F*ck em.

  • rwfc236
    Howard Freeman (@rwfc236) reported

    @virginmedia as usual Virgin media lets me down when I need it. Trying to watch the West Ham game and am in an impossible loop as my passkey is not recognised, it doesn’t actually show how or why and then the link does nothing. Pathetic as usual what a waste of money

    @PD1_8_8_2 @virginmedia Yes it's awful @virginmedia I've just signed up with you for another 2 years at a very high cost. Get it sorted quickly please or refund me

    I had no service on my Virgin Media for a weekend. So now I’m getting credited £30 😌

  • rapidlygreying
    Rapidlygreying (@rapidlygreying) reported

    @virginmedia @Smallworth_xx This came up last weekend... how hasnt it been sorted in time between? How wasnt it sorted during the summer if its an issue? Why do we pay so much money for terrible service

  • PD1_8_8_2
    PD1882 (@PD1_8_8_2) reported

    @JohnDuncombe4 @virginmedia I find their Internet service great, the TV service has always been sub par, should just switch the tv to Sky and be done with it 🙄

  • harrewis
    Paul THORNE (@harrewis) reported

    @virginmedia Unacceptable…should be offering compensation to customers for failing to provide the service being paid for.
