  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia And yes I called to your outage number, apparently there is no known issue in the area. Even though last night at 11.30pm in the app the status check showed every service is down, even though they weren't down last night. This happens only during working hours.

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down in OX11 area.

  • nickybootyy Nicky Booty (@nickybootyy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia when will the problems in rg1 be resolved?

  • LesleeRBarron 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗻 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 🍃💚🍃 (@LesleeRBarron) reported from Reading, England

    Just had a call from Jerry at Virginmedia media wanting to help me mend my broadband issues (that I don’t have). After challenging him he told me to find the largest ***** & shove it up my arse!! Charming!! His No. 02038399963 #virginmedia #ScamAlert

  • iszi_lawrence iszi (@iszi_lawrence) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia internet is down in RG30 (router is white but no internet). Checked on mobile I’m not the only one experiencing problems in the area.

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Hi again. Just letting you know we’ve made contact with him and all seems fine. So please can we cancel the engineer for Friday.

  • ABennell4709 Alex Bennell (@ABennell4709) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia broadband issues in RG10? Please could you look into ASAP? I have no connectivity at all. Thanks

  • AronGunningham Aron Gunningham (@AronGunningham) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia RG6 no service

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia let me down once again with their pathetic service. First the broadband was extremely slow all day and now the Hub is gone. No emergency appointment and I have to wait for a week for a technician visit. @Ofcom

    @virginmedia I’m not sure if they do. Happy to do another web chat to cancel.

  • MikeBiscoe1 Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    If anyone is interested in how much @virginmedia are overcharging for their dreadful service, I’ve just been offered a price match on cancellation to move to a different supplier. £27.50/month for a service for which they originally increased price to £105/month

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia @LudaLukeUK That webpage isn't working. Presumably because your network is down!

  • MikeBiscoe1 Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV trying to get through to your customer services for explanation of bill. #losingthewilltolive

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    Another day of pathetic experience on @virginmedia broadband service. No broadband service in RG6 area. Regretting my decision to switch. @Ofcom @DowndetectorUK

  • davedec60 Dave Crocker (@davedec60) reported from Reading, England

    So @virginmedia once more we have an outage, how many times now in the last 3 months? NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! Currently looking at switching supplier

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.

  • shaun1968 shaun harley (@shaun1968) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia I'm expecting a replacement set top box to replace a broken tivo. Told it will be delivered Weds. but I've had no confirmation email and not showing in my virgin app. Can anyone help

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @dansheldonsport @TheAthleticUK Imagine complaining the shirt sponsor, people act like gambling companies are awful whilst also welcoming Tax Evading companies like Virgin Media with open arms and would jump at the idea of sponsors like Amazon or Apple despite them working around every employment law on earth!

  • leerjohnson73 Lee Johnson (@leerjohnson73) reported

    @virginmedia £8.06 per day is a joke. I’m losing hundreds a day. You gave me no warning of the service been shut down so I had no opportunity to find a work around. This is not good enough

  • sha9656 Shane Hodson (@sha9656) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John, Indeed, I got the account when I first signed up to the product. Details are saved in a password manager but now they aren’t working. The internet is back online after 14 hours but I’m still unable to login to my account

  • rajghai Raj Ghai (@rajghai) reported

    STILL NO TV, BROADBAND or PHONE from @virginmedia - absolute worst service I've ever come across in my entire life. Over 2 weeks - not 1 visit or even a call from an engineer. Can't even get through 2cancel the service. Officially reporting this now. Ive had enough. @Ofcom @skytv

  • cafayracer FAY (@cafayracer) reported

    @virginmedia @JimBrowning11 Literally zero ***** given by Virgin - it’s not their money they’re going to lose, so why should they care. Not even a tiny effort to proactively respond & intervene to try to prevent the scams from happening to their customers. This is exactly why I’ll never be a Virgin customer

  • Stephanjames500 . (@Stephanjames500) reported

    @virginmedia Already done that it's show some sort fault in the Area my Internet has been down since 1915pm yesterday its a joke🤬

  • nicknackjames1 nicknackjames (@nicknackjames1) reported

    @ChrisLouisJ @virginmedia Your contract is with Virgin, so Virgin should be taking ownership of this If they don’t respond Chris, the only language they will understand is a customer complaint and a demand for full refund of what you have paid

  • Samyaa_x Samyaa (@Samyaa_x) reported

    @virginmedia now you guys have just disconnected me?!!!!!!! No this is just poor

  • JustBrokeEven Brendan (@JustBrokeEven) reported

    @virginmedia Hi - my wife checked and it only states that it’s a known issue and won’t be fully resolved until 20:30.

  • eloib2001 Eloi Berquin (@eloib2001) reported

    @virginmedia I understand I need to wait but looks like your robot has a problem! Asking me if I want to wait...saying yes...putting a lot of links then asking me the same question again, replying...and so on! Doesn’t really makes sense!
