    @virginmedia I'm not at all satisfied. Since last night until now, my internet has been down. When I attempted to contact customer service, it flatly refused. I attempted to access the page, but it is still blocking me. I am self-employed. The region DE248ET is shown here. Fix it asap

    @toik1961 @virginmedia I think there was something all our Internet dropped out now our #alexa network is not working #internetoutage

  • HistoricCatLady Rebecca Ward (@HistoricCatLady) reported from Mackworth, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on? I can’t even get onto your website for the service tracker using my phone data! I could really use an update here so that I can actually work!

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes it must have shorted itself overnight @virginmedia can I please cancel the engineer?

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia We have an engineer booked for Monday but I don't believe this is really acceptable with the amount of money we pay each month we should be able to expect a service which works, I understand there will be issues but over 3 hours later nothing?

  • sarjeantm01 Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    When you have a smart house and your @virginmedia #Wifi goes down so nothing is working 😳 now the kids are moaning at no tablets, @PlayStation or @xboxuk there is only so many times I can reboot the hub...... #internetdown

  • Andyoram25 Andy Oram (@Andyoram25) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    Trying to watch #LIVWOL but pic quality on ITV4 is awful. Tried ITV X app & not any better. The Virgin Media ITV X app isn't working. This is poor but not unexpected from ITV who just cannot do digital stuff.

  • iamthemummy julie marlow (@iamthemummy) reported from Ibstock, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia One of your tech engineers confirmed the problem in our local area and following a conversation with customer service they kept trying to get me to create multiple networks for speed. This wasn’t the problem, the problem was amplifiers in the local area!!

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia Everyone is very apologetic but that doesn’t help give a vulnerable old lady the peace of mind that her son is available at the other end of the phone, should something happen.

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia It’s even more stressful as we can’t tell her when you will resolve the problem. Extremely poor service.

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

  • Liammanning2u li.iam🏳️‍🌈👬♥️ (@Liammanning2u) reported from Swadlincote, England

    @virginmedia @taylur41 Does @LutzSchueler know how bad your customer service is

  • Liammanning2u li.iam🏳️‍🌈👬♥️ (@Liammanning2u) reported from Swadlincote, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me

  • S_Whitchurch Sharon Whitchurch 🇺🇦 (@S_Whitchurch) reported from Burntwood, England

    @virginmedia I assume as you know there is a problem in my area and we have no TV services or wi-fi that we will automatically be compensated? Many of us are still working from home and this is a massive problem for us!!! #badcustomerservice

  • alextiplerfilm Alex Tipler (@alextiplerfilm) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia You don't have internet access yet you are on twitter? Can you not get someone to ring me. I am stuck on hold, 16 minutes now, waiting to resolve your issue!

  • alextiplerfilm Alex Tipler (@alextiplerfilm) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia Hi I cannot log in to my Virgin Media go account nor change my password. Please help me as I need this urgently!

  • S_Whitchurch Sharon Whitchurch 🇺🇦 (@S_Whitchurch) reported from Burntwood, England

    First World problems. Internet dropping. Or should I say, @virginmedia broadband. Its awful, drops completely three / four times a week. Sometimes several times a day for a few seconds. Can't wait until I can give notice!

  • DonnaXRae Donna Rae (@DonnaXRae) reported

    @virginmedia for the 3rd time in a row my new contract extension has been applied wrongly to our account. Despite speaking to your advisor and being assured it would be fixed! Your customer journey is shockingly bad, try to self serve and it’s failed 🤬

  • AnnWest84 Ann West (@AnnWest84) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, the same as the app - estimated fix is tomorrow?! I wfh so that's going cause me a huge problem

  • stefbriggs_1 Stephanie Briggs (@stefbriggs_1) reported

    @virginmedia My elderly mother's monthly bill. Price has gone up so much. She has Internet, basic TV channels & phone line and her monthly bill is nearly £90. She is really considering cancelling her TV service.

  • PeteCollins0000 Pete Collins (@PeteCollins0000) reported

    @virginmedia you must have without a shadow of doubt the worst customer service ever. I challenge anyone to prove me wrong. Takes forever to get through then the operator doesn’t listen to anything you say or can’t understand you. Come back sky all is forgiven

  • Blue_tattoo Wayne Herzberg (@Blue_tattoo) reported

    @virginmedia ... Tonight isn't a problem but Monday morning IS... My Partner works from home and Needs the Gigabyte internet to fullfil her Job!!! We've already had an engineer out 3 days ago...

  • brox77 steve (@brox77) reported

    @virginmedia why the hell did I decide to sign up to this **** broadband provider it’s bloody ridiculous poor service and no way to access decent support 🤬

  • nikamusik NiKA TORi (@nikamusik) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband Down for 8 days, due to the area outage, fix time keeps moving. Shocking customer service. Next steps, please, guys?

  • edtarleton Ed Tarleton (@edtarleton) reported

    @MartinezPanedaE @virginmedia Oh that’s not good! It aligns with reported Virgin Media IT outages, Downdetector is indicating recurring system problems. It sounds like their IT ticketing system is overwhelmed! Hopefully you can switch providers.

  • Mark_Edwards73 Mark Edwards (@Mark_Edwards73) reported

    @MartinezPanedaE @virginmedia Snap same issue

  • MartinezPanedaE Emilio Martínez-Pañeda (@MartinezPanedaE) reported

    Very disappointed w/ @virginmedia. They suddenly increase my bill and when I try to access my account they say that the password is not correct (it is). I ask for the pass to be reset but the reset email never arrives. I call and they say IT will fix it in 48, it has been a week!
