    @stewartcarter6 Appears it’s a Virgin media issue , shambles

  • lazy__goth
    Tiffany (@lazy__goth) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No, it doesn’t, and the internet goes down again within hours, usually in the evening when I presume there’s high usage. We’re in a loop - report issue, told issue is resolved, issue happens again.

    @virginmedia please can someone help me. I need a number to call you on

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

    @virginmedia Yes. That isn’t the point though. Your website has no information about how to contact you. And your web chat takes 1 hour to do the task of reporting bad speeds. Your contact support needs vast improvement.

  • LOCKLEYHOBSON
    Richard J. Lockley-Hobson (@LOCKLEYHOBSON) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No internet. You say they’re are no problems in my area. You’re liars #virginmedia …

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

  • AcuharmonyUK
    Acuharmony-UK (@AcuharmonyUK) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Tried the fixes before, and so did virgin chat. Not just my handset, other people are having the same problem. Am I going to have to change networks, is that what you're saying? Due to the change to O2?

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

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

  • Clottedone
    Blood Claw Bob (@Clottedone) reported from Bristol, England

    Hey @virginmedia could your sales team STOP trying to call me everyday, I’ve told them I’m not interested and blocked the number but y’all somehow just keep calling and leave voice mails. I’m already a customer so please just take that as a IM NOT INTERESTED!!!

  • AngelMel2017
    AngelMelSelector (@AngelMel2017) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Hello, following on from my tweet regarding complaint of not receiving my credit refund. I have not heard back from the complaints team. What's the best way to proceed? Thanks

    @virginmedia All checks done, says to check back in 22 hours 😲 if still a issue book a engineer

  • RajnishRazdan
    Rajnish Razdan (@RajnishRazdan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia it’s amazing isn’t it - you never pick up calls or cut me off so I go to your site to change my package as you’re charging me for things I don’t have and amazingly your live chat button doesn’t work either.

  • j_bettany
    Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, England

    So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

    @virginmedia #rude #badservice Had Virgin broadband installed just to discover a better deal on money supermarket. Contacted them to ask if they would honour it and was refused point blank, told not to complain, wouldn’t put me through to the boss and wouldn’t give her name.

  • 0JTheJuice
    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.

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Bristol, England

    Hi @virginmedia I want to cancel my account. Still waiting to speak to someone after > 1 hour. Advice please?

  • MTurnerNFL
    Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia The only issue I have with that is that every time I contact that number, the following happens: 1) I explain the issue, again 2) they advise me to follow the steps as are online, again, that I've already done, even though I say I've done them 3) they ask me to monitor 1/2

    @virginmedia ok, what’s the issue with bbc iPlayer sometimes it wants to play sometimes I have to retry many times. Sometimes if I log in I have to wait 2 mins for it to then work. It’s not consistent and very very annoying

  • Nicky_P_Smalley
    Nicky P. Smalley (@Nicky_P_Smalley) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been nearly 2 weeks now. Drop ops/low speeds are still continuing in s63. I keep getting texts saying you’ve identified the problem and sending someone out, but all that happens is you change date of when it’ll be fixed, but fix it you have not!

  • Mod71
    Mod71 (@Mod71) reported

    @virginmedia What is going on with your service. TV is poor quality and signal is terrible.

    @RichardLXXII @virginmedia This is Virgin all over….. advertising £22 and charging nearly £60 to a valued customer……that’s how much you are valued.

    @AnglezarkeNet @DHLGlobal A post here is worth a try. I managed to get Virgin Media of their arses and fix the problem I had. It was useless trying to call them.

    @virginmedia please change the on hold music for uk callers, it's so awful I had to end my 30 min call before resolution. The long call and language barrier are bad enough, that crap jazz hold music is just too much.
