    @virginmedia I managed to get through to customer services in the end & now have an engineer booked for 2moro between 7am & 12pm. Going to cost me half a days work now.

  • GariClark Gari Clark (@GariClark) reported from Reading, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I'm trying to pay a bill through your app, but every time I try to pay, it keeps saying ”session has timed out” and has done for the last couple of days. Before this, I've never had an issue with it but it's not happening this time. Please advise. Thanks.

  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia No known issues according to the tests but when I call your support they always say otherwise. I clearly have issues.

  • manwithfishhead Manwithfishhead (@manwithfishhead) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia No I haven't. Even the service status page is down on the website. :( the phone lines tell me you are working on it, which is fabby but would be good to know what the issue is and how serious I suppose. Thanks for coming back to me so quickly though. :)

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    The @virginmedia amazing service continues, pay £13.99 for a film that you cannot watch due to technical error 🙄 look online, seems common & responses unhelpful, hurry up @SkyUK & get faster broadband here so I can switch!

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Was not anticipating having to leave when i called in, was unhappy you increased my monthly charge and had not been advised. Was told you could do this and there was nothing you could do to rectify the overcharge. Been a loyal customer for 8 years and got treated this way

  • perrycoke Kezza 🙃 (@perrycoke) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia twice I’ve been on hold to customer service for 25mins only to get cut off. My broadband & TiVo hasn’t been working since 4pm. I’ve tried restarting the hub many times, checked the connections as well. I work from home & this is not what I need right now.

  • MARCUS1961UK @MARCUS1961UK (@MARCUS1961UK) reported from Cholsey, England

    @MarkRover @virginmedia Nightmare, normally get good comms when things are down but I have nothing to go on.

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I made a GDPR complaint to you at the time of writing that tweet it was acknowledged, my preferences were updated (apparently) and yet I STILL get calls. Not a word of an apology in that letter though. Didn’t think anything would tempt me back to Sky..

  • MichaelDooega10 Michael gorman (@MichaelDooega10) reported from Woodley, England

    @virginmedia Well thanks for that number which was a complete waist of my time !!!!!i shall be contacting sky for a quote tomorrow !!!! There customer service can’t be this bad !!!!!

  • Cooper100Nicola Nicola Cooper (@Cooper100Nicola) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I’m still waiting for someone to reply to me about my bill. I get cut off when I try to phone, the online complaint form receives an error on every submission, there is no chat functionality available and I can’t get a reply in social media. Please advise ASAP. Thank you.

  • safdar Safdar Mustafa (@safdar) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Followed all you suggested actions, and still no joy. Also have a complaint open COM103973949, someone should have got in touch within 24h. 2 days and still nothing.

  • Katyebh Katy Hamilton (@Katyebh) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Exactly - hands washed of the issue. I don’t need an update, you’ve told me it’s done. It isn’t.

  • MARCUS1961UK @MARCUS1961UK (@MARCUS1961UK) reported from Cholsey, England

    AND BT VIRGIN MEDIA AND OTHER COMPANIES TO HELP THE POOREST OUT AND NOW OUT OF NO WHERE AND MAKE IT LOOK LIKE YOU THOUGHT OF THE IDEA, WELL YOU DID NOT HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME MADAM LYING. Kindest Regards, Mr Mark O G Anderson-Baker @MARCUS1961UK (3/3)

  • manwithfishhead Manwithfishhead (@manwithfishhead) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia Any idea when the broadband issue for ox145 will be fixed. When I ring 150 I get no actual update, just that you are working on it. I work from home and rely on this. Ta. :)

  • ginaatinknight gina knight (@ginaatinknight) reported from Reading, England

  • MichaelDooega10 Michael gorman (@MichaelDooega10) reported from Woodley, England

  • tw1tterlawsey Martin law (@tw1tterlawsey) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia , have been a customer for many years, my recent experience of your customer service was appalling and no empathy shown or value for my custom. I said your service makes want to leave, I was told that’s my choice, so leaving

  • mmiddleton92 Matthew Middleton (@mmiddleton92) reported

    @virginmedia why wont the number work for me to ring you. My Hub is broken again. Need it replaced. Tempted to cancel anyway but cant get through to do so.

  • majson83 Garry Brown (@majson83) reported

    @edwinaferg @virginmedia Edwina, I'm in Northolt near South Ruislip, ub5... had no Internet since yesterday am. Fix time was 7pm yesterday now 8pm tonight.

  • Matthew99029297 Matthew (@Matthew99029297) reported

    @Ofcom Virgin Media has been down since yesterday morning in Northolt/Greenford (London). They fraudulently marked the fault as fixed this morning at 9am and raised a new fault for the same issue to avoid compensation claims for potential 48 hour+ loss of service. Surely illegal?

  • no_coach COACH With NO Name (@no_coach) reported

    @virginmedia Everything..it won't help..it is a network issue. Virgin is either at capacity in my area or you are managing the network and throttling bandwidth in the area between 9am and 5pm weekdays. I will post the BQM graph to prove it.

  • MattyMerecat Matthew Harvey (@MattyMerecat) reported

    @SQRLTV @virginmedia Cancel and restart your contract then.

  • Paul0Hughes Paul Hughes (@Paul0Hughes) reported

    @virginmedia In a complaint response letter dated December 3rd and verbally on a call on the 28th of December.

  • jaydot_____ Ted DiBiase (@jaydot_____) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t mean to be rude but this doesn’t always have the correct information and for some reason you’ve now prevented customers from being able to get through to someone on the phone.

  • Loobeylou76 Louise Harford (@Loobeylou76) reported

    @virginmedia No idea John and can't get hold of anyone. The text service promises a call back within 24h that was 2 weeks ago an I keep trying. Had to extend old provider at short notice, paying more on a monthly contract now!

  • lastdrawsmac Liam Macpherson (@lastdrawsmac) reported

    @virginmedia I need to cancel my service

  • arshiariaz Arshia Riaz (@arshiariaz) reported
