    Running on about 4 hours of broken sleep, woken up with a cracking headache, cramps and Virgin Media is down. Life is hard.

    @Jimbob_Du @_Kano_P Virgin media is the worst, I had a fault with my Vito box it took 4 months before customer service put me through to faults, explained what was happening to the person who answered immediately he said its a Vito fault...

    @virginmedia Why would my page have no update since 1pm? I’m only getting updates via community Facebook page and my parents. My postcode is CT10 2SW. I would also like to know why my engineer visit was cancelled and how I make a complaint.

  • CaryAWright
    Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to your customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!! I’ve now got to drive to London and work through the night! Appalling!

    @money4nuffin @virginmedia This is the 1st issue I’ve had with them in fairness and not happy with the way they are handling it. Other than screen shots of other peoples phones I’ve had no updates

  • dovermonkey
    Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @zoebartlett Funny how @virginmedia say they have no access to accounts over social media yet yesterday I dealt with my issue finally over the same social media platform. They contradict themselves time after time.

  • SamRSparrow
    Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I would suggest then that the service status should be updated to reflect that situation.

  • Dan13lBurk3
    Daniel Burke (@Dan13lBurk3) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I’m not a technician, can you guys just let me leave my contract after this. Terrible customer service, even worse service, waiting to join @EE but stuck in a contract that only seems to work one way. You really are a shambles.

    Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to tour customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!!

    @virginmedia what the problem with the broadband and TV in CT area. There's no info and our internet has been down since nice 1am on the 23rd. I'm out of contract 👋👋👋👋

  • jimmygreen83
    James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia... broadband has been down all day and expected back at 5:25pm, still not working. Now, recheck the app and not expected back until 8am tomorrow! Seriously?! Why? What has happened? How can it be down for that long? Ridiculous, especially when people work from home.

  • SamRSparrow
    Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Already done it and there is an outage in the area and now saying won’t be updated until 9.30pm? How am I supposed to work?

  • bobvoyage
    Bob Voyage (@bobvoyage) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia if you think I am going to be talking to my family over Christmas while my WiFi is down, you can think again. Get the engineer out here or I'm sending you shite in the post daily.

  • CaryAWright
    Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @Dan13lBurk3 @virginmedia My neighbour has spoken to Customer Service too, who have informed him that it will not be fixed until the 28th!!!

  • CaryAWright
    Cary Wright (@CaryAWright) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia not had internet, for 24 hours. I spoke to customer services at 18:00 who “guaranteed it would be fixed by 21:25” I checked this 3 times as, at that point, I could arrange alternatives to finish work for Xmas. Now I can’t and still have no internet. Appalling!

  • SamRSparrow
    Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia service down in CT10 area, loads of people reporting this on social media etc but service status says it is fine. Can you please look into this ASAP?!

  • SamRSparrow
    Sam Sparrow (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia services in #Thanet have been off since 1am on the 23rd December and now you are pushing it back until 2pm today for a fix and still no engineer on site - that will be over 36 hours with zero updates to customers right before Christmas. What is happening?!

  • nghudson
    Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from Preston, England

    @Jess_Guth @virginmedia @virginmedia are the pits!!! Dreadful customer service and they’ve tried to charge us for a phone service we terminated 3 months ago!!! 👎🏻🤬

  • SamRSparrow
    Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia I am extremely unhappy broadband been down since 1.15pm. Booked an engineer. This has been cancelled with no explanation. Can’t book another. Service status says it’s fine but many others online in CT10 says there is an area issue. First person on phone hung up.

  • SamRSparrow
    Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia The service status page hasn’t updated since 1pm. Everyone in the area has the internet down and yet I’m being told right now on the phone there is no problem. I had an engineer booked tomorrow and VM cancelled that and now can’t send one until Monday? Awful service.

    Salih Toyran (@Freeze_) reported

    @virginmedia I have been trying your agents to fix my user name and password for almost 7 weeks!!! I’ve spent hours on the call and I’ve been made numerous promises but none of them kept. Still today agent telling me I should wait 2-3 weeks to fix this. This is beyond the pale!!!

  • kennythekilt
    kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Nope didn’t hear back from them I wasn’t wasting my time and your poor customer service

  • robmarshall83
    Rob Marshall (@robmarshall83) reported

    @virginmedia No. But got an email to say I had regardless. The call got cut off but didn't receive a call back. All very disappointing considering I've used your service for the last approx. 20 years.

  • kennythekilt
    kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported

    @virginmedia Having trouble did you read the text I’m having a break then I’ll get back to you!!! What kind of customer service is that ??

  • robmarshall83
    Rob Marshall (@robmarshall83) reported

    @virginmedia On demand hasn't worked properly for weeks. I pay every month and don't have the time to call each time it goes down. Basically told its not a big deal as its not a full service outage. I can get @skytv for £40 a month less.

  • RossFraserE17
    Ross Fraser (@RossFraserE17) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have. Doesn’t give any information as to why there’s an outage or@why it may take until tomorrow to fix it. More information needed please

  • ThatProgrammer
    ThatProgrammer (@ThatProgrammer) reported

    Been on hold for 15 minutes with @vmbusiness trying to get my number moved to my new @virginmedia service.. I'm losing it with this music which is way too loud for phone lines to handle so it's very disrupted.

  • mnaved
    Mohamed Naved (@mnaved) reported

    @virginmedia Have been talking to all sorts of people without any answers. I get the same answer that we will get back to you within 48 hours. Days and months have passed. No answer. So no point in calling the sales team. Waste of time. VERY POOR SERVICE.

  • Jack_07_Daniel
    Aspire to Inspire (@Jack_07_Daniel) reported

    @virginmedia Problem is the deals for existing customers are worse than for new customers. Which means it doesn’t pay to be loyal. I’m on my 30 day cooling off period and I’m looking at going with communityfibre. I’ll probably look at getting my dad to cancel his move to Virgin Media too.
