    Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, England

    Had an @virginmedia broadband outage on Sunday for 2 hours. Since then, connection so spotty that I'm getting 10 seconds of completely dropped packets followed by 20 seconds of slow-as-molasses ping times once every 10 minutes.

    Rubbish network is @virginmedia can't recommend to anyone one of the worst customer service

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

    I purchased @virginmedia high speed wifi but they are not giving a proper service We are totally frustrated

    @virginmedia broadband down again from Virginmedia Common theme these days

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    And just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.

    @fesshole Imagine having virgin media - those poor kids

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!

  • Phil_Bonna
    Bonna (@Phil_Bonna) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Swindon, England

    Any news on outages in B37? Also how do I get compensation for loss of svcs (inc my TV not working properly since September) @virginmedia

  • lePhantomPlume
    le Phantom Plume (@lePhantomPlume) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia It’s ok thanks, one of your team rang me, was extremely rude then hung up.

  • scbadham
    Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • stumccullagh
    Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off

  • beffycuk
    𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚑 (@beffycuk) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

  • OpiniatedOne1

    @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

  • robchippyman
    Rob Chipman (@robchippyman) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

    Antony Howlett (@AntonyHowlett) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ChristineAllado @virginmedia I keep having this problem every week and nothing ever gets done and all you get back is we can't find a fault

  • kolapoagunbiade
    TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

    @virginmedia @CliveR39 You have been promising to fix this since Friday ? Do we get compo ?

    Calvin 'Emeka Onwuka (@CalvinEmeka) reported

    Ahh @virginmedia, less than a month into your Broadband Internet and the service is down. You hope to "restore it by 10.08pm" 😡😡😡 What. The. Actual. F!! 4 years with a previous provider and this never happened.

  • andy_nicks60

    @virginmedia @stephenm68 Ha you can’t even issue your flagship box in certain areas for lack of infrastructure ffs

  • markstapleford1
    mark stapleford (@markstapleford1) reported

    @virginmedia @Vonk9 Presume we will all be getting a refund for this lack of service on sky sports + not working? Been down a while and current estimated repair is the 28th August!

  • RyanCartiers
    RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported

    @virginmedia AI should get rolled out once it works. Currently it does not - yet failing robots are used across the industry, eroding the reputation of those giving their customer the finger with it. Want to immediately be the industry leader?

  • robheneghan
    Rob Heneghan (@robheneghan) reported

    @virginmedia @CliveR39 How is this even close to being an acceptable response @virginmedia. Mine doesn’t work either. And watching sky sports doesn’t help when what I want to watch is on the red button. 🤠🤠🤠🤠

  • nwl88444048
    nwl (@nwl88444048) reported

    New Lucy Kennedy series gets off to a slow-ish start on Virgin Media One, especially given the pre-publicity about Tommy Fleming and the wife's comments and legal letters, reported in the Sindo and Sunday Times. An average adult audience for first transmission last night of just 71,000 with an audience scratching its head about why Fleming agreed to the interview if he didn't want to dig up the bad memories.

  • glentfc27
    Neil Skivington (@glentfc27) reported

    @virginmedia That's all well and good but everyone is paying for a service......which we aren't getting presently.

  • BlakeyCb48
    cheryl blake (@BlakeyCb48) reported

    @virginmedia I hope you’re going to compensate everyone for the lack of service we haven’t had !

  • SamanthaAsumadu
    Samantha Asumadu (@SamanthaAsumadu) reported

    You're stronger than me. I got Virgin media down to £18 when I threatened to leave. I took their offer. and now it's gone up to £24 quid 2 years later and no doubt will go up again next year 😞
