    Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia That's a shame. Virgin SIM card was so much better and better customer service. I will probably change to a different phone network as soon as I can

    Alex (@0JTheJuice) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Hey BG, so in total it disconnected 7 times from 7pm yesterday. The lights started flashing Green, after multiple resets it continued to disconnect throughout the evening. Really disappointed. Not the first time I’ve had issues with virgin’s internet.

    @virginmedia is there an outage problem in BS8 (Bristol)? We’ve lost the internet and TV connection.

  • craigcapes
    Craig Capel (@craigcapes) reported from Bristol, England

    The £ gleaned by both @virginmedia and @SkySports in making it difficult for fee/ subscription paying members to watch “each others” content must clearly outweigh the customer service calls and complaints 🤬

    Kieran Traveller 🛫 🏰🚢 (@KieranTrvlr) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have, and I get an automated service that hangs up on me after sending a text. I just want to order wifipods. I’ve tested the speed in the app, but it’s not allowing me to do anything. Chat doesn’t work, and calling won’t let me speak to anyone.

  • xChuChux911
    Hi, call me Chu x (@xChuChux911) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I never gave out any personal information as I knew it was a scam cus I'm with Sky. The number was 02045099664 but it was spoofed. Lady had an Indian accent and said technicians in my area had fould a fault which was affecting my computer.

    Looks like @virginmedia is down across the UK. The outage is so big it’s crashed their website.

  • LetRIP
    Matt (@LetRIP) reported from Thornbury, England

    @virginmedia No. Your chat representative cut me off. Have wasted over an hour already. You must be joking if you think I’m going to waste more time on your awful service

  • bethkorf
    Beth Ryan (@bethkorf) reported from Kingswood, England

    Wow @virginmedia you've out done yourself, 45 mins and counting to cancel sports channels for mum after dad passing away all with an agent #shockingservice

  • thisisryanc
    Ryan Carrington (@thisisryanc) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Constantly drops out, coupled with frequently slow speeds. Price increases for a worsening service.

    Looks like @virginmedia #virginmedia is down in Bristol again. Bravo. Idiots

  • neilcairns
    Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia where can I email to complain? My VirginMedia Box won’t let me delete a number of things and my Internet is patchy at best! £83 a month for this ****? Every time you call you people you’re on hold or cut off!

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 And that is why you are known as the most stupid MP ever

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Yes. Have done this and spoken with your ‘fault management service’ who cut me off when I was explaining the problem.

  • Superstan_92
    J Stan (@Superstan_92) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Multiple problems when moving home. Now we have been told we won't have anything installed until 31st December when we moved in on 29th November.

  • neilcairns
    Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Why can’t anyone just forward a message or reply to an email? Why does the customer always have to do something else? Absolute ball ache as usual with this nonsense. Wonder how quickly you’d fix issues if people stopped paying their bills?

  • hurleyb0b
    Rob Hurley ✈️ (@hurleyb0b) reported from Bristol, England

    Hey @virginmedia there’s something VERY wrong with my Wi-Fi. I followed your online instructions and it didn’t clear the problem. I have a really busy few days. What’s the quickest, easiest way of getting it sorted?

  • algro10
    Al (@algro10) reported from Clevedon, England

    @10sam_h Yeah likewise, virgin media awful still not sorted it

  • gman7634
    graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia you said you know what the problem is but no one is working at the box!!!! Part 2

  • Yippers
    Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Email to say it was resolved by offer of an apology which I never accepted so I called customer services who offered the credit of overpayment onto my account which I’m still waiting for.

  • CJD39
    Catriona **** (@CJD39) reported

    What a kerfuffle. 10 calls to Virgin to reactivate services. Not easy and customer service not great. @virginmedia #customerservice #housemove #difficult

  • RNM1947
    Bob Moore (@RNM1947) reported

    @virginmedia @Craig_A_D Had 6-7 months of issues with my Virgin Media system, still payed my monthly bill and still waiting to be compensated. Not good enough.

  • MsLiberty1776US
    Charlotte Riggio (@MsLiberty1776US) reported

    @virginmedia you know what would be great? If your phone system worked so your agents could hear customers and not hang up on them saying there’s no response

  • tariqm786
    Tariq Mahmood (@tariqm786) reported

    @virginmedia No.. I called at 14.35 and was told I’ll be sent a text message once fixed as there is an issue in the area.

  • chibmanib

    @virginmedia please sort your Internet services out. Its up and down all day and now I've been without wifi for 2 whole days

  • miaKJKJ22

    @virginmedia @entrustTMF Do you think it's funny?? People pay for service which you cannot deliver

  • Neek49
    Monique Bissell (@Neek49) reported

    @virginmedia I understand, however your estimates keep extending without any end in sight. We don’t get this service for free. We pay for it. At what point do you let us know that it is broken beyond repair and we should move on. I can handle us breaking up for good, promise

  • COhanians
    Chris Ohanians (@COhanians) reported

    @virginmedia genuinely shocked and appalled by virgin leaving my 80 year old father in law without broadband for a week. No o2 signal so was uncontactable by family fo such a vulnerable adult. We live a couple of miles from him and we had intermittent broadband too. I went online

  • cam_bridgewater
    Cambridgewater.x (@cam_bridgewater) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness . Just "upgraded" to Voom 1 gig from 500. Speed slower than previously. Called technical .. they did some fault clearing and told me to reboot router, now I have no internet at all. Technical can't help reverse the error as they don't have full access .. unbelievable. Worst service ever. How can a technician make things worse and then tell me an engineer will be with me Monday ..
