    Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, England

    Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia I have been a customer for over 10 years,left for 7 days now with out broadband & home phone. I am being push from pillar to post with reasons.A engineer was meant to be with me from 4pm onwards to now be told no one can come. Shocking service / long term customer.😡

  • P4TTL
    Patrick Smith (@P4TTL) reported from Chertsey, England

    @virginmedia Yep, no issues in the area. Everything was working up until about an hour ago, and now the Internet has gone very sporadic and constantly disconnecting, as shown by the ping test.

    Jeff Brown (@fadermonkeyking) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to cancel an engineer appt next week. Followed online instructions but only option I get is to re-book for a different time. No option to cancel. And I don’t have time to wait for a response from you if I phone! Help!

  • ranaraptor
    Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

  • jtdavies
    John T Davies 💙🇺🇦💛 (@jtdavies) reported from Hounslow, England

    @realLEWlS @virginmedia Where are you? Mine has been up and mostly down since Sunday (for this week at least). #FAIL

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Talked 150 who managed to change one error message for another! Total #fail so far by @virginmedia

    Virgin Media - you've started with your poor connection bollocks again? It's been a good few month. You were doing well. #VirginMedia #SW11

    Jenny (@jennymelmo) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Post code is SM4 4NN , street name : Garth close . There is only one of these boxes on our street and given the condition of it ; you will not miss it if your team come here . Reference id for my complaint is 107332_22100. Can you give me a timeframe by when it will be fixed .M

  • wowbaggerish
    (An)TonyM 🇺🇦 (@wowbaggerish) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia Yes, apparently you have an engineer working on it. If hoping the 20 hour estimated fix time is overly pessimistic!

  • BarbaraMolony
    Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @hopestevep @virginmedia Same! Service getting worse and worse and customer service appalling!!

  • StuartTarn
    Stuart the Copywriter (@StuartTarn) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    A combination of @OpenreachHelp‘s incompetence by cutting through the internet cable outside my house and @virginmedia no showing for an engineering visit to fix it has me having to run my business through my phone hotspot until Friday. That’s if they show up, of course.

  • itsnotO56763609
    itsnotOK (@itsnotO56763609) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to return my call. Phoned customer service on Thursday, Aggie promised to call back, but still hasn't 😕

  • THE_COLSON
    Shasa Colson (@THE_COLSON) reported from Merton, England

    @O2 Hi, I've been going around in circles for weeks. I'm an O2 and Virgin Media customer. I'm supposed to be in a Vilt package but mu data hasn't been doubled on the o2 end. Can this please be sorted asap

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Have raised a complaint but this is being dealt with by someone only capable of copying and pasting a series of platitudes into a superficial and thoughtless email. No intelligence or attempt to understand and address the issues. Pathetic. Still not fixed.

  • judge_ravinder
    Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia surprise surprise once again the connection is lost between the hub and box, only lasted a day. There are no words for the service you are providing and lack of resolution

  • DazzlingHamster
    Dr Mantis Toboggan M.D. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@DazzlingHamster) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Your status and service checkers aren’t working. There is clearly a problem, somebody please offer assistance and not meaningless and not working URLs

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Geoff Rogers (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from Hersham, England

    @virginmedia @FeelitWorking I think the OP is airing his frustration at the fact that he has to ask for discount at the end of the contract. VM does not do this with its business customers (I know as a former very satisfied business customer) so why should it apply to consumers? To be fair, Sky, BT, Talk…

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Callback should have happened days ago. Now the person on 150 says that you failed to complete a process. They then tried to miss-sell me an upgrade to my package. Still not fixed but "should be" in a few hours! I doubt it. Abysmal deceptive service.

  • tobygilles
    🎤Toby Gilles🎤 (@tobygilles) reported from Hounslow, England

    Has anyone with @virginmedia got the @SkySports red button working? I genuinely think it’s never worked for me and I’ve had Virgin for about 5 years now. I just wanna watch #Watfordfc. I’m paying enough, why do I not get the service?

    @O2 @virginmedia had no internet since 7am - intermittent signal! Now says no broadband issues, but still cannot connect - PR5 area - please sort it out!

  • traceyjohnson44
    tracey johnson (@traceyjohnson44) reported

    @virginmedia Today my mum that is 92 years old phone went down. It kept calling her emergency line. She has a emergency watch. I called virgin about it. I have to call and help my mum as im her carer. Unfortunately they kept saying her password was wrong.

  • ScouseBouncy
    Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported

    @virginmedia This issue has been around for over 2 weeks, your CS staff are telling customers including staff members there is no issue and "just swap out to the stream boxes" which does not fix the problem! Between Virgin and @skytv there should be a months bill reimbursed for each issue!!

  • finn33
    Caroline (@finn33) reported

    @virginmedia home WiFi down again. No update on engineer time. Just that they’re fixing the problem. How can we get this sorted. Seems a bit of heat and your WiFi goes down. What exactly am I paying for?!

  • thelauffinduck
    T (@thelauffinduck) reported

    @david_hollas Their broadband has been ok. Family have it, certainly much better than virgin media. Their mobile phone service was horrific.

  • malfeasence_
    🖤 Nat 🖤 (@malfeasence_) reported

    Of course the internet isn't working and it won't be fixed till the 19th Virgin media gotta be the worst company of all time

  • OngoingAccount
    ongoing.correspondence (@OngoingAccount) reported

    @virginmedia You haven't replied to the last DM. I had to make an official complaint to get a resolution. @Ofcom Having had equipment checked and replaced, the connection is still freezing and disconnecting. This suggests the problem is external. #virginmedia

  • yosagojimbo
    Joe Stanley (@yosagojimbo) reported

    Come on, why does my TV and internet keep going off @virginmedia ? Can't get through the 1st episode of reacher without the whole thing going off....why does your service consistently get worse each year?
