  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

    @virginmedia Virgin Broadband / WiFi not working again this morning RG14 6xx Newbury. service line and app say no issues. Please resolve ASAP. We need working WiFi and not rely on 4G.

  • Gazimoff Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

  • Simmba88 Mechelle Penny (@Simmba88) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ceryswebb @virginmedia Their customer service is the absolute worst

  • basicbloke2012 Basic Bloke (@basicbloke2012) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia I did this last week and again twice this week All says there is an issue and I need to talk to someone

  • InflightJames James (@InflightJames) reported from Wokingham, England

    Absolute SHIT customer service from @virginmedia today. Due have an iPhone delivered yet “for some reason” it was cancelled. Thanks for that.

  • chriswoods84 Woodsy (@chriswoods84) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia I've done all that. It's been intermittent all day. I've reset. I've turned on and off. I've sat on hold. It's a ridiculous service

  • spice1971 Graeme Spice (@spice1971) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia Maybe you can pass on the fact 2 calls to two separate call centres (first was India, second Scotland) both dropped mid call. Assuming it wasn’t the operators maybe there is an issue. Didn’t happen to Philpines on third call. Annoying when hold times are long

  • chriswoods84 Woodsy (@chriswoods84) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia only had internet installed last week. For about the 15th time it's dropped out. Fed up of sitting on phone on hold. Service update page says all ok. Clearly isn't

  • StJamesofFleet James Snyder (@StJamesofFleet) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia been on hold for 25 on a second call. The first disconnected. Problems with BB for three days and now the hub doesn’t even power on after an apparent update!

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.

  • Johnty14 John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my broadband starting & stopping every 10 mins or so, packet loss too. I’m in the RG21 area but the website says no known issues!

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today supposed to have been reconnected. You have a problem, known about for days but arrive and say not today mate! I gotta go to Vodafone now for data. After 20 years, it’s like my wife left me...

  • RJHOTCHEF Ryan Wilson (@RJHOTCHEF) reported from Fleet, England

  • danseantom D T (@danseantom) reported

    @no1_hotspur @LanceAntony @virginmedia Can't beat virigin for speed to the router. After that, if you have WiFi speed issues, buy yourself a decent router and put the virgin hub in modem mode. You're right, it's trash hardware unfortunately.

  • PurpleHayesUK Richard Hayes (@PurpleHayesUK) reported

    @virginmedia All checks as listed on line. Ps your website is a bit broken distorted picture goes to no picture advice. Wired connection from TiVo box to hub. The signal is of course being delivered via a dedicated coax cable, this is live TV, not a streaming service.

  • SucksVirgin VirginMediaSucks (@SucksVirgin) reported

    @virginmedia Told that it is because I have 21 devices connected to the network. A reboot reduce this to 14. 0 improvements in connection speed. Complaint are closed by your team because he has offered his help and I am talking rubbish.

  • macker73 Mark Mc (@macker73) reported

    @virginmedia Honestly. No. I don’t want a forum, I want a solution, from a human being, actually talking to me.

  • dobbinaj Dobbin ✌ (@dobbinaj) reported

    @virginmedia Well down to you now to provide the goods, Been let down for too long . 😳

  • SucksVirgin VirginMediaSucks (@SucksVirgin) reported

    @virginmedia Wired connection. Being told by your team that the router need some 'rest' because it is going through a 'difficult time'. When I dispute this ridiculous claim, I am told I am talking rubbish. What a great support team you have. Really opened my eyes. @Ofcom

  • Reeceeybtw ReeCeeY (@Reeceeybtw) reported

    @virginmedia yeah abit ebarrassing even when i call all i get is. "it must be something to do with your computer. like its not. parents have been on virginmedia for 20 years and never had a problem.

  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported

    @virginmedia I have had a voicemail from the virgin media team about my complaint - but on my mobile which I get no signal on and I specifically asked for a call on my landline. Can this be rectified?

  • Leo89826702 Leo (@Leo89826702) reported

    @virginmedia At what point are you going to advise mobile customers that you have changed from EE network to Vodafone. My migration is tonight after I called customer service and they told me. Now I have been instructed to change all my network details on the APN etc.

  • claire_e91 Claire Ellis (@claire_e91) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I don't think I was given any credits but the equipment was activated on the 26th Feb if that helps. Do I need to call the help centre to find out?
