    @virginmedia no broadband for hours now in G20 - can you help?

  • RedemptionBroon
    Redemption80 (@RedemptionBroon) reported from Birkenshaw, Scotland

    @GSpellchecker @virginmedia They are rarely competent, not as bad as Vodafone but no one is. Broadband speed wise though no one is close so no interest in cancelling.

  • DRoss215
    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have never experienced such shocking service on the telephone for 150 mins still not resolved. I have 2 properties in the one block I requested one of them to be disconnected! VM disconnected both the tenant is now screaming at me as she works from home 😡😡

  • DRoss215
    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia GT it would be easier if you could access a telephone and engage with a customer that needs assistance. I have now wasted another 20 mins of my time 😡😡 how do I get a resolution?

  • 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!

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

    @virginmedia Thanks. I'll try that. When I do a status check it flags Tivo right away but shows no issues with broadband or phone when I then run a broadband check it says there's an intermittent fault in my area. !

  • donmackeen
    don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Service still screwed up, any ideas when this will be fixed @virginmedia?

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

    @virginmedia Hello I have no tv service and also cannot get into my account to do service check. ML1 5HD area of Motherwell. Channels are all pixelated and sound affected.

    @virginmedia absolute joke , internet not working again

  • 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. 🙁

  • MekQuarrie
    Ian MacQuarrie (@MekQuarrie) reported from Cumbernauld, Scotland

    Anyone else experiencing terrible broadband with @virginmedia right now? Getting into a second week now... 🤷

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

    Hi @virginmedia after 2 weeks of repeated calls and being promised a new remote ordered each time when it wasn’t, I finally reached a customer service agent called Maciej Betnat who took the time yesterday and today to help. He is great & I want to see that this is recognised. 👏🏻

  • LoraineRiddick2
    Loraine Riddick (@LoraineRiddick2) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @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!

  • 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.

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

    So @virginmedia broadband and tv appears to be down (again) for hours and their webpage to check service status is offline. I’m currently having to connect my work laptop to my personal phone just to work. This is not good!

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

    @virginmedia As I said earlier, I’ve had no internet for the past month and continue to be charged. I can’t use most of your support services as I’ve never been sent any of my customer information @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Are you kidding? I am not paying 30p a minute to call you. The contact us page says webchat but no link? It also says some text service but no number? Are you also just making it impossible to get in touch. If this becomes any harder to set up billing I will cancel....

  • wilsonfkp
    Wilson (@wilsonfkp) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia I guess it's being restored, I'm on a wired connection and last night and early this morning was like connecting and disconnecting, a bit unstable but I guess your team is working on it

  • rjmfulton
    𝕽𝖚55𝖊𝖑𝖑 𝕱𝖚𝖑𝖙𝖔𝖓 (@rjmfulton) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia hi, just wondering if your support staff are trained on identifying and handling complaints properly? So far “to express my dissatisfaction” and “I would like to complain” haven’t worked.

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

    @virginmedia For the past 5 days I've had limited Tivo use and no access to apos at all in Ml15hd also no Internet 90%of the time. Virgins site says they're working in my area to fix this by 20th October. So will I get a reduction on bill for a week of no service.

    @MICHAELEMERS0N @virginmedia It’s pathetic. What could have happened to warrant approximately 8 days before a fix can happen??

  • mec337
    mec337 (@mec337) reported

    @virginmedia I’m busy composing an email for ofcom about how I’m forced to pay for a phone service to be able to have a package that’s overpriced. Yet when I actually want to use it, it’s broken- repeatedly. Then forced to go through stupid phone menus and wait >30 mins

  • agreenalgh
    Anne Murphy (@agreenalgh) reported

    @virginmedia you finally broke me at this point!!! Almost three weeks without a tv service still not resolved🤬- daily follow ups by me. Just an absolute disgraceful service

  • TeessideDCooper
    David Cooper (@TeessideDCooper) reported

    @virginmedia once again internet down! Online checker says area ok! What a load of rubbish funny how all my neighbours are down as well.

  • Joshhhhh____
    Josh (@Joshhhhh____) reported

    Thanks at @virginmedia for going down 3 times in one month new record!!! Well done! and refusing compensation. Disgusting!

  • ShirleySarah70
    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    @JaneVCarroll @virginmedia Theyve been downright rude to me on the phone today. As soon as I can cancel my services with them the better. A customer of over 20 years and because I'm a mature 72 year old woman they speak to me as if I'm stupid. Cancelling next week.

  • mcgowan_mcgowan
    James Mcgowan (@mcgowan_mcgowan) reported

    @virginmedia no services at all at G74 has any issues been reported.?

  • shauny67
    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @virginmedia @kimtaylor18 In 2026 I cannot understand why people want to pay for a TV service that you can subscribe to yourself. I have Virgin 1Gb then I subscribe to Netflix Amazon Prime & Disney, when it's F1 season I subscribe to Sky sports but I can cancel when I want at no extra charge

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia Still no refund though! Seems like what you said about registering an outage (which I did on the website) - and my in-law's registered as well, resulted in nothing being refunded to either. When should this be expected?

  • GothGuyGamer
    Gothguy (@GothGuyGamer) reported

    @saltyy_savage start a new contract with virgin media with a new email address, the "new" customers get all the decent prices, sincerely ongoing customer for 10+ years paying £40 for a decent connection
