    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  • nicktippett
    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Pre install Refused to acknowledge any wrong, wouldn't get anyone to even attempt to look till 24th, cust. Service refused to engage as pre installs problem, so am left still with no Internet and no way to sort issues, plus having been spoke to rudely

    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.

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

    @virginmedia No internet since last week, again. Have to wait 6 days for someone to come out and ‘fix’ it again. It’s a shame because you guys really don’t care. Since June my internet has been on and off like this

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

    @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?

  • aaronuart
    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

  • Semykaya
    Sema Kaya Ocakoglu (@Semykaya) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Customer services are unexperienced and not read to help also. They keep repeating same things

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

    @virginmedia Intermittent and then completely down. Maybe a day or two ago, multiple times over the course of this issue

  • nicktippett
    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

  • Boubs1985
    Kerry Vaughan (@Boubs1985) reported from Addington, England

    Aint it funny how my Internet was good as gold until @virginmedia tried to convince me to upgrade. Now its absolutely terrible 🙄

  • RPLibDems
    Raynes Park Lib Dems (@RPLibDems) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia @RichMeader Could the web page be updated with the fix date please so people can plan accordingly?

  • bethcanadian
    Beth (@bethcanadian) reported from Lambeth, England

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

    Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    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

  • imbranzo

    holy **** @virginmedia fix up mannnn how you disconnecting when I’m in a ranked match on @PlayOverwatch ???

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

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

  • 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??

  • HazanJJ
    JJ Hazan (@HazanJJ) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia Still down in Lewisham SE8 for me

  • mobiusb2
    Baz, Wacky worm! (@mobiusb2) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

    mark (@PieFaceMark) reported from Poplar, England

    Absolute nightmare with @virginmedia arranging new package. Since agreeing package deal yesterday I've received FOUR different emails telling me I'm gonna be paying four different amounts, all higher than what was agreed. Absolutely terrible customer service and real headache

    Anyone else in the Chester, NW region having problems with their @virginmedia broadband service? Been down all morning #chestertweets

  • Vonk9
    Veronica Dodd (@Vonk9) reported

    @WHUbluesman @virginmedia They denied there was a problem when I rang. Sent out an engineer who told me there was a known problem. What's the excuse?????

  • SarkySodRyan
    Ryan (@SarkySodRyan) reported

    @virginmedia And given I'm already annoyed - don't ask me if I've switched it off and back on again. Of course I have. It still doesn't work.

  • Gram7070707070
    Gram (@Gram7070707070) reported

    @Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Worst company I have ever dealt with and it's not even close. They'll screw your credit rating by mistake and never, ever fix it. They'll hang up on you, the staff don't put notes on accounts and you have to tell the same story to 20 different disinterested call centre staff.

  • AlanRob68902430
    Alan Roberts (@AlanRob68902430) reported

    @alexand979677 @virginmedia grounds to terminate the contract folks

  • CraigSu66242369
    Craig Sutton (@CraigSu66242369) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 Customers shouldn't have to compromise. We have all paid for a service which we are currently not getting. It's a disgrace really considering the cost. Maybe time for a change.

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 23 without our @virginmedia broadband (or phone, or TV) so I’ve celebrated by spending 90 minutes on hold with the “Customer Services” team and responding to the email from the Complaints team telling me that they had fixed my issue (spoiler: they hadn’t). Pathetic!

  • Harding85Jh

    @virginmedia Again @virginmedia still hasn't fixed the problem regarding red button what a shambles

  • IAmTheSavageSho

    @virginmedia count your days WiFi has gone down in Colne Lancashire can't even play the new Zombies Map Rex Infernus because of it 🥀💔

  • _DundeePerfect_
    A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported

    @timtam1888 @heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia The problem many have with connection Speeds in other Rooms has partly nothing to do with the size of the Router, it is down to using wifi and not wired by Cable. All rooms for best results need wired, my own wifi I can't even get sat outside my own House never mind game with it.
