  • CarlMcCulloch CarlMcCulloch (@CarlMcCulloch) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia are providing a shocker of a service AGAIN! No paper bills despite paying for it, a late payment charge for your error, no clue what I’m paying for, and you can’t tell me. #poorcustomerservice

    @virginmedia I had virgin media but the service is no poor i decided i could not be treated like that. so cut it loose and it feels great. rather live in the 80s than have that again

  • ajthesheepdocto Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England

    @virginmedia Thank you - when I run the TV check it says there is an issue. Guess we just need to sit it out. Sadly we appear to be the only ones in the area with an issue (have asked around)

  • jonstfc Jonathan Ellis (@jonstfc) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia I've got no Internet in swindon SN3 5BA area. Is there an outage and when will it be sorted.

  • prelovedbugz Prelovedbugz (@prelovedbugz) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia no service in swindon. What a joke

  • ajthesheepdocto Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England

    @virginmedia upgrade to 360 has caused no end of issues - slow WiFi, slower TV, losing saved programmes, and customer services very unhelpful. When we suggested complaining they hung up. #virgin #nocustomerservice

  • ajthesheepdocto Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England

    From @Snottlegroover I’ve had/having Virgin issues again. Anybody else in OX12 area?Since upgrading our box it’s been a complete nightmare. Definitely won’t be renewing contract this year. #VirginMedia #virginmediadown #virginmediainternetissues

  • kirkknowles121 Kirk (@kirkknowles121) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia I have…..went down at 9:26 this morning & latest estimate for fix is 15:30 tomorrow. Really not good enough, will give @skytv the business.

  • gill_haley33 Gillian Haley (@gill_haley33) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia It seems a little expensive and I was hoping for a reduction as being a pensioner and a customer of Virgin long before it was Virgin, namely. Comtel back.on the day.

  • TheBigOBowski Owen G. Bevan (@TheBigOBowski) reported

    @virginmedia Nobody has given me an answer, no-one has offered to help beyond sending another box out and pushing back the installation dat further, I'm now told we can't have internet until the 26th. No one will elevate my complaint.

  • ashgoldy Ash (@ashgoldy) reported

    Anyone else having issues with virgin media? #virginmediadown

  • carolineking76 Caroline King (@carolineking76) reported

    @virginmedia Please explain how I have to work from home, Boris says so! pay my virgin bill, not get service for best part of a working week, have to buy extra data because virgins broken. And I’m the one left out of pocket??? With an angry boss, if this was business WiFi you would sort this

  • carolineking76 Caroline King (@carolineking76) reported

    @virginmedia Your not! You all go home at 5.30, after digging more holes in the road. if this was such an issue you would be working 24 hours to fix it. #homeworker #tryingtowork #itsajoke

  • johngparker72 John Parker (@johngparker72) reported

    @virginmedia The agent on the phone last night said the first available "virtual" appointment was Friday 25th. This is now compounded with an area issues. So our specific issue can't be looked into until the area issues is fixed which will be at least 1600 today.

  • TheBigOBowski Owen G. Bevan (@TheBigOBowski) reported

    @virginmedia I've had to explain my situation over 20 times and you customer services reps insist on speaking over me, they don't offer any help they just repeatedly tell me they can't reactivate the original box. It's rude.

  • mayasmoves Maya (@mayasmoves) reported

    @virginmedia The phone line keeps saying intermittent when it’s actually a total loss of service, so how can I prove that in order to claim compensation? I’ve also had to pay to use a hotspot and will likely have to pay again…any updates on when this will be sorted?

  • kat_earp Kat Jew (@kat_earp) reported

    @virginmedia aaaand after six minutes waiting on the phone, i get through to your 'i want to leave virgin' department and the person on the other end sounds half asleep, tells me he can't hear me and puts the phone down.

  • mrsverypicky Sue Reeve ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🕊️🕷️ (@mrsverypicky) reported

    Wifi outage here. Great start to the day. @virginmedia claiming no issues with their service, but "down detector" is showing they are having widespread problems.

  • KingKas04 King Kas ☥🇨🇩🌱 (@KingKas04) reported

    @virginmedia doesn't even let you speak to representatives no more... Robot telling the network issue will be fixed by 12.45 kmt. How do I get my work done?
