    @virginmedia Do you have a business outage in S8? Can't get through to anyone. Wondering whether to send everyone home?

  • TroubleDads
    Trouble, Becky and Dads (@TroubleDads) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @Rapidolass @virginmedia I had to hang up after an hour because I was about to swear. I may as well listen to a voice synthesised repeated message. Not sorry, no problems and only wanted a £99 call out charge to check their equipment showing an error light. Wifi is painfully slow.

  • ianpnaylor
    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

  • TroubleDads
    Trouble, Becky and Dads (@TroubleDads) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @virginmedia What forums? I have a fault so phoned Virgin who ‘booked’ an engineer who never arrived. You then had no knowledge of an engineer. Explained the fault and call centre refused to send an engineer or replacement box. How is a forum supposed to help?

  • arabella0404
    Francesca novilla (@arabella0404) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia your broadband is awful. Never works. Tried to call customer support, there is no number. Tried to check on internet for some help and it's very confusing. Very unhappy customer.

    Jules Tee (@xjuewx) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia not good when my 82yr old mum was left with no phone service so no health emergency service and city wide alarm for the last 2 days.... not good enough !!!!

  • TroubleDads
    Trouble, Becky and Dads (@TroubleDads) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    Quite an electrical storm here. The thunder is terrifying Becky and virgin media has just gone down. She’s pacing and panting furiously poor thing.

  • stagladanddad
    Russell Morrell (@stagladanddad) reported from Annesley, England

    Hey @virginmedia my landline has stopped working again This is the second time I've had this problem now You'd have thought with you putting the prices up your service would be better?

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

  • trevortuffin
    trevor tuffin (@trevortuffin) reported from Blackwell, England

    I CAN TELL YOU NOW VIRGIN MEDIA I WILL DEFINATELY NOT BE RENEWING MY CONTRACT WITH YOU AGAIN EVER WHEN MY CONTRACTUAL TIME IS UP YOUR COMPANY WILL BE HISTORY I AM SICK TO THE BACK TEETH OF YOUR INTERNET SHODDY SERVICE CONSTANTLY DROPPING OUT.

  • TT_PLEB
    That There PLEB (@TT_PLEB) reported from Hucknall under Huthwaite, England

    @virginmedia WiFi down, AGAIN, Ethernet devices working fine, just wireless that isn't working. Happening more and more recently and it's getting absolutely infuriating.

  • ianpnaylor
    Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

  • TheG0000ner
    Gooner (@TheG0000ner) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Is there something wrong with @virginmedia at the moment. Got a very very crap speed of less than 1mbs #virginmedia #virginmobile in the S40 area. Can't log into my account either? 🤬 This is happening far too often for £69 a month!!!

  • BMinion25
    Becks. 🐏 (@BMinion25) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia hello internet is down and has been since 7:15am this morning……

  • TroubleDads
    Trouble, Becky and Dads (@TroubleDads) reported from Mansfield Woodhouse, England

    @virginmedia If an engine light comes on in your car but it still drives badly, do you ignore it? She even offered to send me a longer cable so I could move the box. For £99. For some coax cable! I don’t know why I bothered renewing my contract. Utter waste of time. Virgin sucks.

  • Baddileyram
    grumpy man (@Baddileyram) reported from Derbyshire, England

    @virginmedia 6:30. 30 mins after time slot. Engineer brilliant apologetic, sadly telephone customer service not so good. But at least I'm online this evening.

  • hpriest92
    Hannah Priest (@hpriest92) reported from Market Warsop, England

    @virginmedia my broadband is down AGAIN. 3rd time in a fortnight, what am I actually paying these extortionate fees for?

  • pearson_alison
    Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service

  • GodberKen
    Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia hi - I have a sim only mobile contract that's not been used for at least 18mths. I've stopped the DD as I'm unable to simply cancel via website and the number quoted to call doesn't work. I've got nowhere to go with this problem now.

    @virginmedia It is a problem in my area. My postcode is Ls11 7hg. It is simply not good enough to now have to wait until at least 5pm for internet and television

  • finalstand79
    just me (@finalstand79) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia are shocking, offered me a contract with Netflix, didn't get it , made a complaint , did nothing other than acknowledged i made a complaint and my signal is always shocking. Warned so many people about them

  • lottalottebotte
    Little Lotte (@lottalottebotte) reported

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia Im with talk talk, but ive never had a problem to date.

  • pirate1100
    Pirate (@pirate1100) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia @virginmedia are terrible, I stopped the television & phone package years ago because of bad customer service. I only have the broadband now & although the broadband is really good the price is extortionate if you don’t keep signing up to a contract, so I’ll be cancelling that.

  • Benleo
    Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported

    Congrats to @virginmedia for being perhaps the WORST company I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with in Britain. Three engineer visits, five plus calls to Indian call centres, and still you can’t activate the TV contract you upsold me when I simply called to get my connection back. Awful, awful business model.

  • Moonmanthrunner
    Moonman (@Moonmanthrunner) reported

    @virginmedia 4th day of no tv and none of the projected fix dates or times met. Compensation if and when fixed?

  • aldismaldi
    𝐀𝐥𝐝𝐢 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐢🗨 (@aldismaldi) reported

    @virginmedia @Benleo Said they'd send a new box due to fault. Never arrived. Couldn't find a trace of the call! Then said expect an engineer call that never happened. Don't take out contracts with them!!

  • MrsCClarkey
    Carrie Clarke (@MrsCClarkey) reported

    Come on @virginmedia my elderly mother has been without TV since 14th May. Your outage updates are wrong every day. No way of talking to a human. You need to do better!!!!

  • georgehomiltonx
    George Homilton (@georgehomiltonx) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia After multiple calls to their call centres in recent months I have come to the conclusion that their agents run a competition to see who can get a customer the angriest and an award is given at the end of the month.

    Jordan (@JordanPsych_) reported

    @virginmedia why am I still getting issues with your horrid internet? been almost 3 weeks and still no fix yet you're 'aware of the issues'
