  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Exactly - hands washed of the issue. I don’t need an update, you’ve told me it’s done. It isn’t.

  • KernowPrincess Lynn Gower (@KernowPrincess) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet appears to be up and down for RG30 2QT

  • OutdoorDaveGB David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported from Reading, England

    @AnnaCorderoy @virginmedia In my case it took about 2 months to get a reliable service restored.

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    The @virginmedia amazing service continues, pay £13.99 for a film that you cannot watch due to technical error 🙄 look online, seems common & responses unhelpful, hurry up @SkyUK & get faster broadband here so I can switch!

  • bettyjo62 Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yes I live in Abingdon and the service is not good. Anytime there is rain there seems to be a problem

  • pepetideo Pepetideo (@pepetideo) reported from Didcot, England

    After waiting for over 1 hour to talk to a human on @virginmedia, can't help but feel like I was being trolled by the choice of background songs. One says "I could get used to this", other about being down down down... Somehow I don't think this is the best choice of mood music.

  • mikeyh817 Mike (@mikeyh817) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia According to your fault page there’s nothing wrong yet when you call they agree there’s a problem. Again poor service from yourselves when your departments can’t agree!!!

  • mathers1981 Stephen Marshall (@mathers1981) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke of a service. Try and leave them as they are having your pants down each month and it’s like trying to escape Alcatraz. Awful firm

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Was not anticipating having to leave when i called in, was unhappy you increased my monthly charge and had not been advised. Was told you could do this and there was nothing you could do to rectify the overcharge. Been a loyal customer for 8 years and got treated this way

  • JoshGilpin Josh Gilpin (@JoshGilpin) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Your advisor would only provide the tracking number that I was already given the other day and told me to use that to find out what’s up with it, they were about as much help as yodels customer support

  • HappyH1983 Happyh1983 (@HappyH1983) reported from Reading, England

    When you ring @virginmedia to discuss your current package... 1st guy ruder than rude... Asked to talk to disconnections and get the best customer service. Turns out there was a deal to be made. Very happy now.

  • bettyjo62 Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @Virgin the internet is so bad in the Abingdon area that updates on my iPad keep rejecting this is over the last 24 hours #virginmedia

  • daddysdahmer Soph (@daddysdahmer) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet keeps dropping out in RG30 and then completely went. No issues showing on your site. Tried restarting router but still no internet!!!

  • bettyjo62 Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia you have completely messed up by accounts you are incompetent company I want my problems sorted now this as been going on for four days

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    Getting a bit fed up of @virginmedia marketing calls that just hang up when I indicate I’m not interested - not even giving me the chance to opt out - #GDPR rule breaking....

  • bettyjo62 Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @MirrorTech @DailyMirror We do have a lot of problems @Virginmedia and has been going on for sometime

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia , have been a customer for many years, my recent experience of your customer service was appalling and no empathy shown or value for my custom. I said your service makes want to leave, I was told that’s my choice, so leaving

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I made a GDPR complaint to you at the time of writing that tweet it was acknowledged, my preferences were updated (apparently) and yet I STILL get calls. Not a word of an apology in that letter though. Didn’t think anything would tempt me back to Sky..

  • mikeyh817 Mike (@mikeyh817) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia putting on such excellent service again 😡😡😡😡 broadband been down now for over three hours. You clowns really are useless. Really wish we’d left you when we had the chance 😡😡😡😡😡

  • mikeyh817 Mike (@mikeyh817) reported from Woodley, England

    Can I just say again @virginmedia is absolute shite. Had no internet for nearly an hour but “their system is down” so they can’t check it. Piss poor from this company

    @virginmedia She said it was your problem and would probably be fixed (remotely) in next 24 hours. I requested a call when it was fixed and she agreed. No mention of steps if it is not fixed. It’s still broken.

  • MEvangelouMusic Maria Evangelou (@MEvangelouMusic) reported

    Absolutely terrible service from @virginmedia deactivated my mobile sim (nobody knows why) and now can’t reactivate it for up to 7 days from Monday, so I can not make or send calls/messages or use any of my mobile data that I have paid for #livid #unacceptable @MoneyTelegraph

  • donnykebab1972 Kieron Griffin (@donnykebab1972) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Internet/WiFi down again.

  • yasminecamilla Yasmine Camilla (@yasminecamilla) reported

    @AbiAgyeman @virginmedia Wow! Tbh, I think my complaint was given lip service and not written, until I insisted on a ref, and made her read it back to me. Needless to say she couldn’t….

  • GeorgiBTN Georgina (@GeorgiBTN) reported

    @virginmedia In postcode BN1 6BH you did works on Thursday, all fine yesterday, now no connection at all. Says my Internet is fine on the service checker???

  • RealDidierUK Monsieur Brexit | Conservative (@RealDidierUK) reported

  • 1etijain Eti Jain (@1etijain) reported

    @virginmedia It’s an endless loop and no resolution to concern in nearly 2 months now.every request goes into a black hole for something which is a failure at your end.
