  • Geordiesbird Alyson Leitch (@Geordiesbird) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia is there an outage in Woking? No WiFi at all for 2 hours so far. 😫😫🤬

  • Chateauneuf64 Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    Really hard to support brand @virginmedia and recommend them to anyone for Broadband. They may be the only competitor to BT but do you have to compete for last place?

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England

    @virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia @joelycollinsx Hilarious. You get a link after ringing the number but the website is down

  • robmcewan1966 Rob McEwan (@robmcewan1966) reported from Finchampstead, England

    @virginmedia Truly astounding. I have spent hours trying to get virgin to actually carry out promises made and we’re still not there. I’ll swear the customer services reps I speak to are under so much pressure to move on to the next call they make it up as they go.

  • TropicKarenB Total Tropic Karen 🌴 (@TropicKarenB) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia No broadband service in RG14 and your service status checker isn't working. Is there a know issue? #virginmedia

  • KieranDavey1 Kieran Davey (@KieranDavey1) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi - I'm in Rg22 and Internet has been down since about 11am - do you have an eta for when this will be fixed? Thanks

  • tRed20 Tony Redmond (@tRed20) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Suddenly came back online yesterday afternoon ...so suggests there was an issue elsewhere. Thanks for your replies

  • Loafite Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?

  • reddobowen ☁️ Chris Reddington (@reddobowen) reported from Winnersh, England

    @virginmedia - Internet seems to have gone down in RG41, and your status page isn’t working. Can you confirm / when will it be back? Thx

  • thebiggayreview The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, England

    WiFi went down in the middle of watching Halloween Ends. 4G signal also unresponsive. Stuck on very slow 4G. Virgin Media say it’s possibly a hardware fault and want to send someone Monday. No. I’m not waiting 72 hours with no internet. I’ll implode.

  • TimSBourne Tim Bourne (@TimSBourne) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia I'm sick of explaining this again & again - see previous tweets & msgs to VM. It isn't even noted - yesterday 2nd line support looked at my ticket & said I'm "not receiving any emails" NO NO NO! Just emails with etickets attached, even tho get non ticket emails from same sources

  • tRed20 Tony Redmond (@tRed20) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia have a registration failure on my hub meaning no WiFi, broadband or TV available. Apparently no issues in my postcode??? Reset done same outcome 😔

  • Loafite Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ianmills99 @virginmedia No internet in RG21 either. Cannot even get on to the service page on my mobile

  • Chateauneuf64 Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia all week had total Broadband outages and down again now (past hour). Received a text from VM with link to follow (self help) and guess what, I need Internet to access! Trying to WFH just impossible. Every hour we have issues.

  • Chateauneuf64 Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia And there you have the extent of VM customer care folks!

  • littlekatyb Katy Blay (@littlekatyb) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi! Our landline is being switched over to fibre on the 4th October, however our landline and WiFi hub are not on the same floor so we cannot connect them. Help please!

  • CathyTVNews Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, England

    What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

  • Chateauneuf64 Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!

  • DianeLu13077223 Diane Lucas (@DianeLu13077223) reported

    @virginmedia I wasn’t provided one, i logged this with cisas and the complaint is classed as settled with them as it’s only pending a payment from yourselves.

  • Amrit_Phull Amrit Phull (@Amrit_Phull) reported

    Virgin Media has the worst customer service in history. My TV box has been faulty for over a month and all they offer is a simple apologoy - pathetic @virginmedia

  • Amrit_Phull Amrit Phull (@Amrit_Phull) reported

    @R3DD_L @virginmedia Yes I think so, they upgraded me for free when I complained about their service a couple of years ago. History of faulty service which is why my patience is running out.

  • Danzy92 Craig (@Danzy92) reported

    @virginmedia No, no fault ticket as I didn’t speak to a person. It was Automated message saying there is a known issue on the area and I registered for text updates when it is resolved. Thanks for the link.

  • Borgemon1 Borgemon (@Borgemon1) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, we've had people coming over and we know it's not us but a generic issue happening at certain times. Can you now justify why you increase and an ALREADY RIDICULOUSLY expensive service?

  • EastLondon101 Mahmud Shibli (@EastLondon101) reported

    @virginmedia It's an automated service and a monumental pain in the arse. I'm just going ignore all further emails and texts regarding the issue. Or I might actually email your CEO, if it keeps happening

  • kinsella_eileen Eileen Kinsella (@kinsella_eileen) reported

    @virginmedia I no phone signal in South tipp any idea when it be back.

  • jdcecfc justin courtney (@jdcecfc) reported from Seaton, England

    @virginmedia I was with my dad, and we were were going to change all of his stuff, but it was pathetic how the two call handlers treated us. No respect at all and seemed very pleased not to help.

  • YuanSun02640414 Yuan Sun (@YuanSun02640414) reported

    @virginmedia I have requested 4 times, but still haven't received the package yet. Every time I have to call customer service, it's just torturous. Please can someone get in touch to resolve this problem?

  • IMF_X I M F (@IMF_X) reported

    With the amount that @virginmedia goes down, they really need to invest in a router with built in 4G to turn on automatically when the internet is down yet again.
