    @virginmedia Since yesterday afternoon. I was working so not entirely sure but approx 24 hours. £160 a month to be without even “free” channels. I am aware nothing is without fault but the poor customer service and lack of ability to locate/tell us what the issue is, is appalling.

    @virginmedia BTW. It’s not an ‘intermittent’ issue - I’ve had no service at all for 18 hours, and what exactly does ‘taking us a little longer than usual’ to fix actually mean?

  • lethalshirl
    Shirley Monteith (@lethalshirl) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Broadband is intermittent & says connection is unstable. I’ve done all checks. Also my remote for V6 box is not working & can’t pair the new remote with the TiVo box - light doesn’t go off & remote doesn’t beep. I’d like someone to come & look at both.

    @virginmedia Estimated fix 19.45 😭

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I am on the phone right now and like I’ve said. The service I am receiving is disgusting. 40 minutes call and to be told that in a #CostOfLivingCrisis you want £650+ to disconnect a service. Must’ve been robbers you merged with as this is criminal behaviour.

  • MacqueenHector
    Hector MacQueen (@MacqueenHector) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia, I have been trying to contact you for 3 weeks in order to cancel my TV contract. Email, phone, WhatsApp and your app all lead into frustrating brick walls. Kindly contact me, quickly.

  • lexo6647
    Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia been trying to get through to you. Finally got through to try and speak to a customer service and was cut off immediately when transferred from automated service to an actual person. Trying to sort out my 80 year old dads tv service. Awful service

    Mike McNulty 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺🇺🇦✊ (@bankaudits1) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I tried to get help but didn’t get through to anyone just a text sent to my mobile telling me how to fix it but no joy. Checked the forums and turns out I’m not alone and the upgrade is rubbish so just stuck it in the cupboard.. hopeless!

  • bigtoodle
    Peter Tuffy (@bigtoodle) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia at last, fixed at last, that’s only taken from the 20th Nov to the 28th of Dec to fix my home phone.

  • trippfuller
    trippfuller (@trippfuller) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia is the worst. Three days of off and on service has cost me significant time and money.

    @virginmedia Currently dealing with someone eventually and having major problems…very angry customer..!

    @virginmedia broadband in EH11 is up and down like a yo-yo. More down than up. (like my attempts with a yo-yo)

  • Alli3Fifer
    Alli (@Alli3Fifer) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia Quite simply No. They are in mid 70s and tbh we just need the issue fixed. Mum is awaiting a call from the hospital & is concerned and stressed they won’t be able to get her as she hasn’t had use of the number she is has had since 1989 for over a week!! My Dad is just stressed

  • effiefenton
    Effie Fenton (@effiefenton) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia my daughter has finally got a new home in supported accommodation but can't move in until a telephone line is connected so her carers have access to a 24/7 phone. The earliest appointment is currently a month away. Can you help us so she can start her new life?

  • SobukweScozia
    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Except I can’t because I get fobbed off and they just try to get me to upgrade my package. Seriously. I’d just like to know if there is some systemic complex issue, as you suggest, or not.

  • SobukweScozia
    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have now had no service - internet, tv, phone - for 24 hours. It’s impossible to speak with someone about this. There is only a vague automated message about a ‘complicated problem’. How can I get this fixed? What are you doing to address this?

  • effiefenton
    Effie Fenton (@effiefenton) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia it would be a great idea if you could save priority installation slots for those in greatest need, like those with disabilities who need a phone line installed for a telecare service. So they don't have to wait a month. Just a thought.

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Trying to downgrade/cancel your @virginmedia is made harder than it ought to be! Perhaps of your customer service was better then I wouldn’t have made this request after all these years. Diabolical and shoddy! There was a time when I’d have only recommended them over competitors!

  • welshref
    Paul Collier (@welshref) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia how the hell do I get any sense from you guys? Eight days spent just trying to get an account sorted 🤬 your customer service is non-existent

  • pixiecat5
    Nicola❤️🏳️‍🌈❤️ (@pixiecat5) reported from Cowdenbeath, Scotland

    @virginmedia no internet for 4 days now. Outage reported Fri. No updates other than the resolution date moving every day. No text updates as promised. @FifeCouncil you have cut the cable whilst replacing Streetlighting. Contact me please. I cannot work hence can't earn anything

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Rubbish company, Customer Service is just scammers, no system , bunch of scumbags in the industry. We had in one of our BTL and got it cancelled for all those reasons ,am sure many have experienced. Stay away from @virginmedia

    @sephiroth17181 @virginmedia WiFi signal on my router is pretty decent tbh. I get 40Mbps (WiFi5) connection on my iPhone 14 Plus at farthest point of back garden (router is at front of the house), which is more than enough for browsing, YT, etc if get to sit out there on the bench

  • Sunlunfan
    Sunlunfan (@Sunlunfan) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Having a similar issue. They deadlocked my complaint and now want £362. CISAS not particularly helpful, directing me back to virgin to get evidence

    @gwfvrowell @virginmedia The word "service" is a stretch.

    Internet down since last night...any updates? @virginmedia

  • Si_67
    Si (@Si_67) reported

    @virginmedia Whenever I use your service checker, I get the message: "Intermittent signal in your area..." etc I go through the charade of checking the equipment (knowing it's not that) to get the stock message: "Don’t worry, we’re looking into this issue..."etc. This is all the time now.

    Dan🥷 (@_DanJbh) reported

    @Simon_Coates @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I think so, seeing as im an telecommunications engineer. Just stating my prices like everyone else never once mentioned your "Starlink"

  • andreahayes121
    andrea hayes (@andreahayes121) reported

    @virginmedia @aquarius16th Hate the new interface and how it all works even to get to my recordings. Can I change back it’s awful.

  • Jess_Simpson645
    Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reported

    @virginmedia thank you for offering help via a DM, but you have sent me quite a lot of the exact same messages now - only one was needed. I have already told you that one of your engineers is coming out tomorrow to check everything is okay and get everything working properly. At this point I will only need to contact you if the engineers visit isn’t successful.
