    @virginmedia Landline is still NOT working. Try ringing yourself.

    @virginmedia No known issues in the area, and then the services test doesn’t work either? 😕

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia It’s not specific to me; and to be honest I’m not really bothered. The problem is your marketing 5G phones in areas that don’t have 5G which is affectively mis-selling. Probably something you should look into.

  • maggietodd10
    maggie.todd@live.co. (@maggietodd10) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia We can’t use landline because of fault. Tried mobile - no response. We shouldn’t have to keep reporting. You know there is a problem. Fix it please.

    @virginmedia Can’t even open the outages page... (using mobile network)

    @virginmedia The specific issue isn’t on the site

    @virginmedia I'm well aware of the service status page, but when it just gives a generic 'we know there's a problem and hope to get it fixed by 3pm' it's not very helpful. But seemingly the chatbot is even less so. Just lost connection for the 3rd time in 28 hours. #Anyone4Starlink?

    @virginmedia hi just making sure your tech department would never phone up and not ask for the Bill payer first?? Or you don’t have a 01253 code call place?? Mother in law had 5 calls Saturday!!

  • mrsloucampbell
    Lou Campbell❤️⚽️ (@mrsloucampbell) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia That is a joke - as I want to take @virginmedia with me - so are you saying I should be choosing a house based on virgin media’s’ service ??? it’s not my fault you don’t service the area.... why am I being penalised ? You are breaking the contract by not providing the service.

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @StephenD1402 @virginmedia It’s the router Steve. The free Virgin router is the problem. Buy a new router from someone like Asus and turn the Virgin one to Modem mode. Should solve most problems.

    @virginmedia why do you advertise high broadband speeds yet I never get over 17mbs more often in single figures, whenever I phone up it improves for 24hrs, your helpline is a waste of time and I regularly get outages as well, as in most days

  • JEM1429
    Jo Buxton (@JEM1429) reported from Biggleswade, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia My husband adjusted our VM package to include an extra V6 box in a bedroom. Engineer booked in 6 weeks ago. Turned up last week without the box. He said he'd call back 3 days later to install. He didn't turn up. We've phoned your customer services over

  • Jagercraig
    Craig (@Jagercraig) reported from Saint Neots, England

    @virginmedia Ok I’ve ordered, but didn’t see the option to change delivery date, can you help?

  • l_m_h_76
    lee hamilton (@l_m_h_76) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia your #internet is absolutely diabolical you may offer the fastest speed but pointless without a decent service

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia You do realise that the majority of messages sent to you are people complaining that your Wi-Fi is very poor? So perhaps concentrate on that for existing clients rather than pushing new sales? Poor router is the issue. #slowerfaraway

  • Just_Woodbridge

    @virginmedia having major issues with my broadband.

  • PurpleWisdom
    purplewisdom (@PurpleWisdom) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia @markscamilleri I have no service at all despite you saying it’s been restored. Can’t even get into the website to report. Everything is down even though it’s showing it isn’t.

  • KTMGordo
    Gordon Brown (@KTMGordo) reported from Saint Neots, England

    Oh joy. Christmas Eve and @virginmedia has a fault that apparently won’t be fixed until 4 January. No TV or internet then this Christmas whilst stuck at home on my own 😢 ...although the service status page says ‘good service’ 🤔

  • swimmingsu
    Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England

    @virginmedia 1/2 been on the phone for over an hour on hold waiting for customer service - finally get through and the customer service rep cuts me off before I even say what I want...

  • kevinspicer72
    Kevin Spicer (@kevinspicer72) reported from Bedford, England

    Just been DM'd by @OpenreachHelp to ask if there is anything ELSE they can help me with TODAY. After NOT being any help at all on FRIDAY. I think it's a parody account. Also @SkyUK didn't call as promised. God I wish we had @virginmedia round here.

    @Benleo @virginmedia Give your custom to someone else. That is what I do when I'm not happy with the service I'm expected to pay for.

    @SuzieD755164 @RTEOne @virginmedia Weak men created bad times, bad times create strong men, strong men create good times.. that’s what happening now, the incompetence of these elites has pushed us into the dark ages.. now people are rising to bring back common sense and stability

  • Manavvv31
    Manavmeet Singh (@Manavvv31) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Nothing unites Britain quite like a shared telecom customer service horror story. The combination of endless transfers contradictory information and problems somehow getting worse after every call genuinely feels like a national experience at this point 😭 @Benleo

  • Richard75129359
    Richard Ryan (@Richard75129359) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I left them years ago as we have fibre now that does 2gb up and download. Had sales people knocking on the door ring doorbell showed one of them spitting at my front door. Called them to report it wasn't interested and told them to never come again still put flyers in the door.

  • swiveleyed24
    Swivel Eyed (@swiveleyed24) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I moved to community fibre a couple of years ago. Quarter the cost, faster Internet and better customer service.

  • ollyp3
    Ollyp3 (@ollyp3) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Wait - you have to stay on a contract or cancel. Why can't they just cancel what you were sold, give you the compensation (which they are legally required to on Ofcom auto compensation anyway for lost connectivity) and fix your service urgently. I cannot believe you are being held to a missed contract without the perks of said contract! Apalling

    @virginmedia No consistent WiFi at 8pm today at CT3 2BA I thought full fibre meant a consistent service???

  • GregoryRasputin
    Ivan Elmanov (@GregoryRasputin) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t have a problem returning it, I have a problem with your company threatening to charge me because I didn’t send the router back straight away, maybe give people more than two weeks to send it back before harassing them.

  • obbsie
    Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported

    @virginmedia I just tried to contact you remotely re my TIVO box & the changeover. Your Terri bot clearly couldn't deal with it. My whole computer then froze completely followed by a page of Chinese writing before the computer telling me there is a problem & rebooted itself. Will I have to wait four hours on the 150 landline as I did the other day before giving up.
