  • BagshotTwit Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia I upgraded to the Ultimate Oomph package in Jan but still waiting for the order to be completed. I’ve contacted customer services on numerous times but no success, I’ve also raised a complaint. How do I actually get some help to complete the order?

  • vikingmarta89 Marta (@vikingmarta89) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia why since Monday is so bad signal in Reading West ? I’m not able to work !

  • BobBeveridge1 Bob Beveridge (@BobBeveridge1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia When your expensive fibre broadband crashes in the middle of an online meeting with an MP this is bloody frustrating and unacceptable. Your service is often unreliable in the middle of the day. Can it be fixed or do I need another provider as backup?

  • JulianHull Julian Hull (@JulianHull) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia having problems with internet in GU14. Will this be resolved soon

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Hi see first tweet in chain, I have been waiting on CS whom I called and raised a call back complaint request with before I tweeted my frustration

  • WakeFireplaces Wakeford Fireplaces (@WakeFireplaces) reported from Send, England

    @virginmedia Getting a new/replacement Hub, existing one keeps turning off/resetting. Call lasted 50 mins, 6-7 mins was chatting to someone, until put on hold again. Gave up.... shocking service!!

  • gonnella Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England

    @mattlintott @NetXL_dot_com Nice 👍🏻 got gig1 from @virginmedia but the upload is awful only 50mbit. Hope it gets increased to at least 100mbit soon.

  • flyingjok John Neilson (@flyingjok) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia Worst part of it @virginmedia is the way your customer service team speaks to customers. Quite appalling and in my experience always approached on basis that the customer is wrong. It consistently bad - to be told you don’t send texts when I clearly had two texts quite insulting!

  • KathyMck1962 Kathy mckenry (@KathyMck1962) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia can you advise how much longer our internet will be down in the Tilehurst Reading area had no internet since 8pm yesterday? ?

  • McFadden1985 James McFadden 🎮 (@McFadden1985) reported from Camberley, England

    My @virginmedia has completely gone down. On a Friday night & good Friday of all days. TV is completely blank 😣

  • BagshotTwit Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia I had my phone on me all day and didn’t have any missed call message. I have called numerous times and no progress. I understand you also can’t help me.

  • drewalmighty Andy Routledge (@drewalmighty) reported from Egham, England

    Hey, @virginmedia, your customer service is abysmal. After being told you can’t install an internet connection until end of the month at my fiancé and I’s new address, you then hang up on us three times when we try to cancel our subscription. Feels like you’re running a scam.

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I can't sign in as I no longer hold an account, your CS don't care and obviously fobbing me off and not raising complaints as requested, I will just pursue via FCA and/or trading standards.

  • PhilipFurlong2 Philip Furlong (@PhilipFurlong2) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia They say it's company policy and as it's with IT they can no longer help! 1 week and no further forward.

  • TheonlyJonesy Martyn Jones (@TheonlyJonesy) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia don’t worry about supplying a service that I can use to work from home, I’d much rather leave the house in a pandemic to access stable broadband...!!!

  • ambreenfarooq15 A (@ambreenfarooq15) reported from Reading, England

    Virgin media is sooooooo ******* ****

  • AlisonJaneWilso Alison Jane Wilson (@AlisonJaneWilso) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia truly awful company stuck in the dark ages why would you trust them with broadband when after 3 months notice to quit they take full payment and then you have to apply for a refund !!! Company run by dinosaurs looking for opportunities to rip you off when leaving !

  • 6thDr 6thdr (@6thDr) reported from Wokingham, England

    Today I finally changed my phone. Goodbye #virginmedia #virginmobile never again shall I have such awful customer service service.

  • DawnFabbricatti Dawn Fabbricatti🇿🇦🇮🇹 (@DawnFabbricatti) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia You LITERALLY cannot be serious right now? Is this how you believe my issue will be solved? And yes, in the last 19 days I have rebooted twice.

  • gregemmerson_ Greg Emmerson (@gregemmerson_) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Completed the tests with the app, one room poor coverage

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • toffeetezza Terry D. (@toffeetezza) reported

    @virginmedia No, none of those are the main issue which is the box just randomly shutting down mid program and rebooting. Have missed vital parts of programs & goals in football matches, so you can see how annoying that is from what is supposed to be state of the art equipment!

  • PemJol PemJol (@PemJol) reported

    @virginmedia Nope the issue apparently is always with my *** which the automated line tells me to restart which I do. Still no joy. Even after a factory reset, which now means not a single smart device can connect to it. Brilliant

  • MattDen82519810 Matt Dennis (@MattDen82519810) reported

    @virginmedia @bt_uk when will full fibre be available in my area? Fed of having daily issues with our fibre provided by @virginmedia not a day goes by where we don’t have issues and then to top it off they want to charge us more for this privilege #cantwaittochange

  • PemJol PemJol (@PemJol) reported

    @virginmedia And spend another 6 hours on hold??? Fantastic business model. Trap them in. Cut service and refuse to interact with them. Like it. We are trapped. Time to cancel the direct debit then I guess. Could they put you Twitter people on the phones maybe?

  • carlyeann #MrsApples (@carlyeann) reported

    @virginmedia Between 12-4pm not ideal when in lockdown two young children and no Tv. Paying for a service we haven’t got!

  • simonwillard12 simon willard (@simonwillard12) reported

    @virginmedia Oh right, an area outage for the past 18 months. I’ve been with virgin for 10+ years it’s not an outage but an issue at my address. Can you get an engineer out like promised? I phoned and was on hold for an hour then the call ended on me.

  • PemJol PemJol (@PemJol) reported

    Here we go again @virginmedia another morning on hold.... can’t wait. Can you play some more cheerful music. Spent 6 hours on hold at the weekend with ‘hold music to kill yourself by’ even tougher on a Monday! @MartinSLewis @hollywills please help lone parents getting ripped off

  • mdpattison Mark Pattison (@mdpattison) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, is there an update on this yet? We’ve bow been without our broadband since Thursday afternoon. Your postcode checker is still saying the service is fine, which is obviously not the case.

  • lauzmarsland laura marsland (@lauzmarsland) reported

    @virginmedia morning, there seems to have been a problem in our area since yesterday any ideas when we will be back online??

  • 1Ryez Ryan (@1Ryez) reported

    @virginmedia I wanted to complain about the price increase, only renewed my contract for another 18 months. Trying to contact you on the phone is nearly impossible to get through. If your services were worth the extra price increase it wouldn’t be a problem .
