  • sarahk0905 Sarah Kemmett 🧜‍♀️🥂🦄 (@sarahk0905) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    Hi @virginmedia I need some help please. My parents internet has gone down, customer services say they need a replacement hub taking up to 7 days to arrive. My mother is disabled and my dad is her carer, both isolating. How can we get the hub delivered quicker pls?

  • TheJamesLawlor James Lawlor (@TheJamesLawlor) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia Not good. Only 2 devices that connect in the house are PlayStations. Nothing else will connect. Says 'connected with problems' on my fire stick

  • outtheratrace49 David Crebbin (@outtheratrace49) reported from Cheltenham, England

    I’m with @virginmedia mobile and getting a lot of harassing calls amongst others from @HMRCgovuk telling me unless I press 1 a warrant will be issued for my arrest. Is anyone else getting these calls or is it just me or my network?

  • liamharries Cllr Liam Harries 🔶 (@liamharries) reported from Quedgeley, England

    @vmbusinesshelp how can you claim to have a 24/7 fault support hotline if every time I call i either get cut off or after 5-10 mins of hold music I get a dial tone then silence? How can it be that VMBusiness has even worse customer service and reliability than residential?

  • DomWUK Dominic Williams (@DomWUK) reported from Painswick, England

    Congratulations @virginmedia - 2 hours on the phone, 4 customer assistants with no offer of a solution - you’ve just lost a customer.

  • CharmedWatson83 Emma Watson (@CharmedWatson83) reported from Longford, England

    Just spent the last hour trying to get in touch with @virginmedia very bad customer service #nothappy

  • mitanshu mitanshu (@mitanshu) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia poor broadband connection at the moment. Is there a known issue ?

  • Lettie73 Colette Etheridge (@Lettie73) reported from Quedgeley, England

    @virginmedia please can you provide the correct contact details for making a complaint.

  • TheJamesLawlor James Lawlor (@TheJamesLawlor) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia Don't ask me to check service status. Don't ask me to reset your router. Don't ask me to ring that number to speak to a computer and don't send me a link to 'tell' me whats wrong with the Internet

  • RobGueRAF Rob Gue #blacklivesmatter #silenceisnotanoption (@RobGueRAF) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia there appear to be broadband issues in my area (Gloucester, GL2). Internet speeds are very slow, for both wifi and ethernet connections. Please advise.

  • battmalls matt (@battmalls) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia broadband is completely down

  • FoodAndFifa99 Jeff Stelling🎙 (@FoodAndFifa99) reported from Gloucestershire, England

  • Hannah_S39 Hannah x (@Hannah_S39) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Love when the connection to the messaging service is unavailable

  • TheJamesLawlor James Lawlor (@TheJamesLawlor) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia I got given a number and it was a automated service, haven't actually spoke over the phone to anyone. Only on here

  • MichaelAlanHunt The Michael Hunt (@MichaelAlanHunt) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @ionasurveyor @virginmedia Virgin's customer service is quite frankly crap

  • Hannah_S39 Hannah x (@Hannah_S39) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia yo you seriously need to sort out your connection, my WiFi and internet have gone down yet again and I’m trying to send it my uni work 🙄😡

  • DomWUK Dominic Williams (@DomWUK) reported from Painswick, England

    .@virginmedia I am deeply deeply unimpressed with your customer service. You made a mistake with the delivery address for my order. I have been on the phone for over an hour and 15 min, am being transferred to the 4th person, no one takes responsibility or is able to help.

  • bills_86 Bilal Mulla (@bills_86) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia Came back on today....after nearly 1.5 days when outage only said for 3 hours....not impressed

  • TheJamesLawlor James Lawlor (@TheJamesLawlor) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia Yes that was one of the first things I done, no problems apparently

  • LuisASousa79 Luis De Sousa (@LuisASousa79) reported from Bishop's Cleeve, England

    @virginmedia Hi there, I don't have internet or phone line working where I live? Any issues In the GL52 8JP area? Thanks Luis

  • alfieboy85 Danny (@alfieboy85) reported

    @virginmedia Just that someone would attend to sort the issue I'm not sure that happened.

  • pressfuturist Alastair Horne (@pressfuturist) reported

    Virgin Media down for the second time in five days and I’m less sanguine about it this time. Rebooting to see if that’ll fix it. @virginmedia

  • ThePiGent ThePiGent (@ThePiGent) reported

    @virginmedia Customer service said they wouldn’t want to make promises they can’t keep... Construction on 23rd June, install not until 30th. I think you need to pay one of your team overtime to get here on the 24th at the least, don’t you? I was promised the install was tmrw after 1st delay…

  • iucounu iucounu (@iucounu) reported

    @pressfuturist @virginmedia Yeah I just switched back to Sky. They offered me various deals to stay but they couldn’t offer me a ‘the internet stops randomly going down once a month’ option

  • richproduce89 Richard Dean (@richproduce89) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, we are on the "M100 Fibre Broadband" package, the down speed is fine today, its the upload, 0.45Mbps is ridiculous.

  • mansamus19 🤘🏿@ntl£r (@mansamus19) reported

    @virginmedia My service is meant to end by 16th of june. Which meant my bill of £30 will go up to £91 going forward but because the bill comes out in advance, the charges reflected on my latest bill. So i opted to cancel the contract but turns out there is a 30day period i have to pay for

  • Neill771 Mark Neill (@Neill771) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I have checked the service status and it’s all looks good. I would stress that it always says that and our service has been dreadful for weeks.

  • andyyoung2 Andyy 🇪🇺 (@andyyoung2) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Hi @virginmedia - can you tell me why you’re advertising on GB News platform of hate please? If you continue I’ll need to cancel my contract. Thanks.

  • Joshyyy2014 Joshua Robinson (@Joshyyy2014) reported

    Spent my whole lunch trying to get hold of @virginmedia who have joined up with @TheO2 - what an atrocious service.

  • PaperGoblin WildAnnie (@PaperGoblin) reported

    @virginmedia This issue I had was the internet going down because you were upgrading the network in the middle of my live stream. It wasn't an outage. I received no letterbox drop notification.
