    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted, called the number, it says there is a known issue in my area and engineers are working on it. Does this take 5 days to fix? I try the status online and it tells me everything is fine but it isn’t. Is there anyone looking at this. I’ve never had an issue last this long

    @virginmedia dropping service when I’m listening to Beyoncé’s new album is a hate crime.

    @virginmedia Broadband gone down again in SE3 8HT area, I’ve reset the hub 3times and still no Wi-Fi or broadband. I’m using data on my phone again.

  • DelDelovely
    Deli (@DelDelovely) reported from Eltham, England

    So @virginmedia who do I invoice for the lost revenue for my husband and I as you can’t send an engineer out for 6 DAYS to fix our broadband/TV fault??! Please tell me who I’m to send the invoice to, and also how to get compensation for 6 days of lost service 😡

  • AntonBrooksAMB
    🔰 Brooks 🔰 (@AntonBrooksAMB) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Many complaints have been raised and we have tried to leave the contract due to the complete lack of anything beneficial to actually fix our broadband. Of course I’m not having a a go at you but your customer service team is very bad. They don’t care about actually helping 👍🏾

  • 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.

    Mr. Whizz (@wysiwyg100) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia as usual I’m afraid your comedic bad wifi has translated into a comedy of errors for me to cancel my contract.. pls can someone get in touch

    @virginmedia Your status and service checkers aren’t working. There is clearly a problem, somebody please offer assistance and not meaningless and not working URLs

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

    @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

  • Phil_Swallow
    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    @redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers

    @petercardwell @MichaelLCrick @virginmedia Did they hang up because they thought it was a spam call?

    @Chelsea1504 @virginmedia That’s why we got rid of ALL providers, the customer service and costs were awful.

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been on the website & phone help for 2 hrs trying to get contact number changed on our acct (it's incorrect & won't save any edit via any device) but can't get a route to the correct help. We have an engineer coming who needs correct number, what can I do?

  • AntonBrooksAMB
    🔰 Brooks 🔰 (@AntonBrooksAMB) reported from Merton, England

    @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.

    @virginmedia hello, seem to be having some drops in our broadband over the last 48 hours. I’ve followed all steps to reset, unplug etc but still not working as intended. Any help please? Thank you.

    john (@jhargie4) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia @Virgin CEO Lutz Schueler Deadlock letter has now been received although it completely does not address my actual complaint and the reported resolution is factually incorrect. Just shows the total lack of respect shown to a 20 year loyal customer

    Richard D G Cox (rcox.bsky.social) (@RDG_C) reported

    Hello @virginmedia might you please have your legal department confirm their address for service of documents such as, for example, formal “letters before action”? It would of course have been preferable if the question had not had to be asked, but … we are where we are.
