  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    @virginmedia By all means better start reading up on the #badcusyomerservice I’ve had since 2020 about March? Virgin still hasn’t fulfilled it resolution agreement mad back in Nov 2020 and have had to chase and hound you with up to 7 calls as staff which should be able to, can’t get it right!

  • bludogsix Ethan Truss (@bludogsix) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia We haven't had a stable connection since January and our internet drops out at least 20 times a day. Your customer service line is anything but useful, as no one seems to be able to figure out the issue that is causing this consistently inconsistent internet service.

  • ABSiddiki Abu Siddiki (@ABSiddiki) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Well…either an early cancellation or resolve the issue that I am having at your expense and not mine :)

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia They said this issue is affecting my connection as I seem to be connecting to 5 something not 2.4 ghz can anyone help.

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yeah and speak to a snr complaints Mgr which I’ve attempted 3 times, been promised a call back in 48 hours and each time never got one… seems like they’ve not been trained to use your own phones! #saynotobadcustomerservice

  • c_vanadium0509 Claire Newton (@c_vanadium0509) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia any updates on the outage in SE London? What is the eta for resolution?

  • _iancollier Ian Collier (@_iancollier) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hey @virginmedia why does it take sooooo long to call you guys? Spent 45 mins on hold waiting to be transferred to department who can help me with my phone line problem. I gave up. Help!

  • Dave_CAFC Dave Hammond (@Dave_CAFC) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia your platform is useless it is constantly going down how are people supposed to run businesses with such white #virginmedia #garbage

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall 🏳️‍🌈 (@KeithBursnall) reported from London, England

    No internet with @virginmedia and 5G down to a crawl with @EE - I shall have to take up@knitting!

  • MrGarySmith Gary Brian Smith (@MrGarySmith) reported from Dartford, England

    Beware anyone thinking of joining @O2 they’ve just hiked up their rates and limited free data total usage when in Europe #ripoff also just merged with @virginmedia so expect the service to fall of a cliff when the call centres are rerouted to virgins Singapore call centres

  • HunteLucy Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia a text to say there may be disruption to services is not the same as no wifi or TV since 8am and not expected back on until 4pm?! Can’t speak to anyone on the phone either! Not acceptable especially when I am having to cancel important work meetings?! Furious!

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi I called yesterday and was told my poor Internet connection is due to fault F009107079 even though this does not come up on the service status page? So I can’t track it and see when this will be fixed can you help?

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

    @virginmedia can you tell me why we had internet issues for the last three days which are now solved, but I still cannot get Netflix, iPlayer, Amazon prime video or Now Tv. I am sick of paying for extra tv services I cannot access. Would you like to refund me for these days?

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall 🏳️‍🌈 (@KeithBursnall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia been down for most of the day (thank god for @EE mobile data). No mention of local network issues.

  • kanyonatic Mary (@kanyonatic) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia All anyone can say is there is an issue and it’s being fixed but they don’t know when

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Can you see if fix eta for fault F09107079 is Monday 12th July please

  • HunteLucy Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Not expecting a fault free service but an entire day with no Wifi when working from home is not acceptable in the slightest! The texts said some disruption not no service at all? Compensation is required!

    @virginmedia Thank you team. The box has now restarted by itself, no warning Something is not quite right today. (It did also restart last night but I thought it was an emergency update) Will come back later to see if it solved anything Annoying

  • Katy1207L Kate Goodwill (@Katy1207L) reported

    @virginmedia May I also ask why it is so difficult to log a complaint?

  • lizadelic Lizzie Knights (@lizadelic) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been calling your customer service number for technical support for weeks and it will not connect me to a human! How can I get help with my parents broadband urgently? This is not ok.

  • lizadelic Lizzie Knights (@lizadelic) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to call your customer service number for weeks for technical support for my parents broadband & it keeps hanging up. How can I speak to a human to get it sorted ASAP? This level of zero service is not ok.
