  • jph98 Jon Holloway 📫 (@jph98) reported from Chipping Sodbury, England

    @virginmedia quite obviously struggling with internet in the last few weeks. Frustrating and highly annoying for those who depend on it for their businesses. The incredulousness is the worst part. #internet #home #wifi #virgin

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Internet connection has been down, again, all day. BristolBS8. Automated reporting and another 23 minutes waiting for technical support

  • MattEwing7 Matt Ewing (@MattEwing7) reported from Bristol, England

    @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Your customer service is so painful and appalling. 2 rings and the sales team answer, 20 minute transfer to Loyalty team, gave up when needing to be transferred to Contract Services team. FFS I only wanted to remain a customer!!!

  • jason_side Jason side (@jason_side) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No thanks I keep doin this and it keeps saying there's a problem and I keep being told it will be fixed

  • alittleredpanda viki ✨✨✨ (@alittleredpanda) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia hey my internet’s gone down (green lights are flashing on the hub) and I can’t sign into my account online to see if there’s a problem.

  • TimWorth1 τ!m ω0ɍ†ɧ (@TimWorth1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia down again.. no phone line internet or TV here in BS16

  • 1210sounds Rich Hemming (@1210sounds) reported from Bristol, England

    @alone_music @virginmedia Jesus that’s bad, thought it could be done online the activation. I moved house and they said 20£ to move. What they didn’t say was that they renewed the contract and double billed me as they take one month in advance as a new contract. Complained to @virginmedia nothing done

  • AmyFilton Amy Atkinson (@AmyFilton) reported from Filton, England

    @Eolianjanitor @virginmedia I am now a sky customer 👌

  • AlexOrr1 Alex (@AlexOrr1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia 1. not usually one to gripe about customer service. But I waited in for 5 hours today for one of your engineers to come round to install broadband (between 1-6). No show, no texts/emails from you to say they would be late or where they were...

  • AmyFilton Amy Atkinson (@AmyFilton) reported from Filton, England

    @Eolianjanitor @virginmedia Absolutely, no customer service. 💩

  • Janeenie Janine Jones (@Janeenie) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia still not working this morning, any ideas. ( I have paid my bill)

  • MattScript Pastor Matt (@MattScript) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia It still doesn't work. The TiVo Netflix app worked briefly last night but that threw the same error eventually. Everything else works fine.

  • MattScript Pastor Matt (@MattScript) reported from Bradley Stoke, England

    @virginmedia Yes. It doesn't work on any of my devices. TV. Laptop. Phone. The phone works on 4G and the laptop works on another network. Just not when connected to Virgin Media.

  • kerry_georgina Georgina Kerry (@kerry_georgina) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Yes it says there is an issue that should be fixed by 3pm today but it said the same thing yesterday

  • TimWorth1 τ!m ω0ɍ†ɧ (@TimWorth1) reported from Bristol, England

    @granuailemalia @SkyUK Probably the same issue @virginmedia had a while ago.

  • lukejherridge luke beedle (@lukejherridge) reported from Kingswood, England

    A phone call to @SkyUK today to cancel! Had enough of this crap! Can’t watch anything on demand without it freezing every 5 minutes! What’s @bt_uk like or @virginmedia

  • alittleredpanda viki ✨✨✨ (@alittleredpanda) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I don’t have any internet on a wired connection either. And that link says there’s nothing wrong with my service

  • jason_side Jason side (@jason_side) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Box is connected to TV via HDMI cable I've tried different cables and hdmi ports on TV to eliminate those as issues. Doesn't happen with on-demand programs.

  • Rockchic65 LM❤️ (@Rockchic65) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I've recieved my new mobile bill this morning, but it's far too much to be correct. I cannot log on to my account online. Keeps sending me in a loop to sign in, new password etc.. Help me please.

  • Cooper391D David Cooper (@Cooper391D) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, We were told that there was a P4 fault in the area which would be completed end of Feb no problem and we would be getting outage payments of £8 per day deducted from our bills, Guess what, Nothing !

  • melearl84 Mel Earl (@melearl84) reported

    @virginmedia internet had issues last few days cutting in and out apparently all my equipment too close together yet its been same for 8 years still having issues youd think as a vip customer be treated better

  • mehulsingh Mehul (@mehulsingh) reported

    @virginmedia team - I am appalled by your service, I tried to cancel my service and was told I am in a contract that I never signed (nor was aware of). The reason for the cancellation was poor internet speeds and new "estimated time for resolution" every week for the past 3 weeks

  • djsmithuk Daniel (@djsmithuk) reported

    @virginmedia Hostnames weren’t resolving - using the dns addresses provided at the router. Using Cloudflare public dns server 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 resolves the issue

  • munchkintasha Tasha Vranch (@munchkintasha) reported

    @virginmedia Disgusting how I have been on the phone for 2 hours and getting passed around to explain what has happened 100 times!!!!!! Would never recommend virgin media to anyone!!!!!

  • LT_laytont11 LT (@LT_laytont11) reported

    @georgiesucks @virginmedia They seem to think they're smart with it. Like "let's just dig our company into even bigger whole". I'm assuming they hire staff to replicate there internet service I.E mediocre

  • _KingGJ Gary (@_KingGJ) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve rebooted 5 times, I’ve done the on site and in phone diagnostics. The on site one found no issues. Nothing has worked and the only solution I’ve been given is to reset the router or wait for area issues to be fixed which has been no use

  • iainmccalman yaks (@iainmccalman) reported

    The worst thing about folk working from home is instead of asking someone to help them when they don't have a clue they just hang up on you, I've had it with RBS, Virgin Media and the council over the last few months. ******* nippy!

  • t1m1964 tim (@t1m1964) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, they got the TV/internet back but not the landline, I replied to text message if all was ok no - spoke to a locl manager, said someone would turn up on 24/3, they eventually turned up on 25or 26. Say people who pulled cable cut phone - I think not as already down ...

  • eversotired Bayou Lou Garrew 💙 (@eversotired) reported

    @virginmedia The entire operation is grift. A ponzi provider. Are there cabinet ministers on the board of directors, or acting as consultants? Sort yourselves out , you're a national embarrassment & your network is wrongly configured.
