    @vmbusiness Every morning around 9:30 this week, our business broadband has stopped working. Lights look normal and we need to power cycle to get service back. What's going on? Postcode B90 3BD Do you have a back up option available as this affects card payments.

  • PrinciplePhoto Ian Dunn (@PrinciplePhoto) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why would my router be red lighting if the internet is fine? i read online it means there’s an error with my connection but there isn’t any problem 🥴

  • crowley1959 Paul M Crowley (@crowley1959) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia The link you sent me only covers complaints about your services not account payable or refunds. I feel someone needs training. Awful service, I am going to this in the hands of a debt collection agency.

    @virginmedia Engineer visit happened last week and I was told I need a new cable fitting outside my property when I have said this to your fault Steen I have tried charging me £25 and now they are just sending out an engineer to look for problems yet again

  • benritmeyer Ben Ritmeyer (@benritmeyer) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia broadband down in B92

  • tr0y1291 Troy (@tr0y1291) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia are an absolute disgrace. The broadband has been down more than in use over the last 12 months. My 1 year old would do a better job in the call centre they use.

    @virginmedia Sorry but it’s Wednesday - not a weekend or a bank holiday yet! With the catalogue of issues I’ve had with your company I think it’s pretty appalling and next time my contract ends I won’t be fooled into renewing by empty promises

  • pedrofouruk Pedro Oliveira (@pedrofouruk) reported from Birmingham, England

    I wanted to cancel my contract with @virginmedia but no ones answering the calls.. terrible costumer service. @MartinSLewis @virginmedia

  • leomountford4 leo (@leomountford4) reported from Birmingham, England

  • akz147 Aqeel Butt (@akz147) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia What does that even mean .. she cut me off after 2 hours of waiting on the phone.. what type customer service is acceptable at virgin media!!

  • aquaticsmum64 AJKearney (@aquaticsmum64) reported from Aldridge, England

    Hey @virginmedia Had a contract with you for years but the TV service is terrible. Called to sort - gave details including PW for account via auto system (all correct). Person said the name on my AC is different??? My bill is in my name! Left hanging on for 28 mins then cut off!

  • DemxnicYT Demxnic (@DemxnicYT) reported

    @virginmedia Yes my internet is down and has been down for a whole day in Plymouth.

  • Ry_Lewis RyanLewis (@Ry_Lewis) reported

    @virginmedia It's not saying that there are any issues in the area, it's been happening for a few days now

  • Smizz_x Emma Withers (@Smizz_x) reported

    @virginmedia It never works. Goes down at least once a day. Never any reported outages. Just a truly awful service. We don't get what we pay for, but can't go to a different company due to us breaching contract 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

  • BanGaoRen Ben Goren (@BanGaoRen) reported

    @virginmedia Hi LS. I didn't know Virgin provided internet service in Taiwan! If I was back in the UK I wouldn't willingly use any Virgin/Branson product unless there was absolutely no other choice tbh no offence to you. Looking forward to when his trains get renationalised + he's out of NHS.

  • Saul_Grist Saul Grist (@Saul_Grist) reported

    @virginmedia Called technical support again, twice I was cut off when explaining my issue and then 3rd time was told a supervisor would call me back, still waiting. Is there not an escalations team who can take ownership of my issue? Not asking for much, just for my issue to be resolved.

  • JamesHutchons James Hutchons (@JamesHutchons) reported

    @virginmedia The link has not helped, the ‘trouble shoot’ restarts etc, does not help either - what is the eta of the broadband being resolved please?

  • Smizz_x Emma Withers (@Smizz_x) reported

    @virginmedia No just wireless. But its a truly awful service. Most of my friends are with Virgin too and it never works for them either.

  • Nickyveale Nicola Veale (@Nickyveale) reported

    @virginmedia Operative confirmed there were no area issues before the call dropped.

  • XMXN77 SACRÉ (@XMXN77) reported

    @Z4IN786 @virginmedia They are crooks man don’t provide the service properly

  • DanMurr27890867 Dan Murray (@DanMurr27890867) reported

    @virginmedia @JamesHutchons The model doesn’t matter. Multiple reports in se24 of the service being down. This is an issue outside of the home.
