    @virginmedia again really???? I just signed up to a flipping contract and broadband goes down again! Worst mistake. Should have went with another provider. My Plex and my security system is down. Thanks for nothing virgin. 🤬🤬🤬

    Mark 🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

    @virginmedia 3 engineer visits across 4 weeks and still no wifi… promised after another failed attempt to fix yesterday someone would come today. No engineer has arrived and nobody is replying to my WhatsApp. Fix this now please.

    @virginmedia another night not being able to use the platforms I pay for due to crappy service from yourselves

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.

    @virginmedia Hi No broadband service in CB113HG Can you please tell me what the issue is.

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??

    @virginmedia hi, internet down in se5. A bit of a disaster for me as I have so much work on. Could you ask someone to check it?

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

    Marta (@itsmartamoya) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.

  • JaneCommon
    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t but everybody in my area having problems and we are all fuming.

    @_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.

    @virginmedia It’s been terrible since early June. Yes I have tried wired and wireless. There was an issue in the area that was ‘fixed’ a few days ago but nothing has changed. 4 people have come to the house and ‘fixed’ the issue. No change. I have work to do.

    There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

    @virginmedia I came home to it working so whatever you did to fix it, thank you!

    @BonesE78 @virginmedia I have the same reply, I've sent them a dozen messages, including photos and videos of the streaming box not working but my Alexa still able to say date and time. Not interested, just saying I have to call them from my landline, I don't have one. The service is pathetic.

  • f1blag
    F1blag (@f1blag) reported

    @MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin Media are up there for any worst customer service award! They took 3 weeks to restore our connection, promised us compensation (promises we were able to obtain a recording of), refused to pay that compensation and then fought us every step of the way. Dreadful.

    Johnycantdecide (@ladydaveg) reported

    Diagnostic tests suck, the myvm app sucks, your ai at the end of the phone can't tell the difference between zero and three and I still can't speak to anyone. Is there anything you can do right? @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Trying to play @PlayStation @granturismo ? Don't bother! It's just a few tracks and cars in arcade mode without an internet connection! I have home entertainment to prevent these corporate based issues.

    @virginmedia Virgin Media Are your technicians aware of the Intermittent internet signal problem in the NP20 5HT area. Are your technicians trying to fix this problem. This problem has been going on now for a about two week. Alex B
