  • ajb_ltd AJB Consultancy Group Ltd (@ajb_ltd) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia No difference. From the amount of complaints I have read on the same issue I think you know what the problem is with the new box.

  • EreiraS steven ereira (@EreiraS) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Ok but I will try the first link first. As I want to resolve this on a high authority this is bad customer service

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

    @virginmedia Not really when I don’t even get the reply from you team I’ve been waiting for for a week. How about concentrating on the service you’re MEANT to be supplying. You can’t service the customers yiuve got let alone any new ones!!! Fuckwits!

  • thomasc68 Thomas Chawner (@thomasc68) reported from Romford, England

  • nerrad1964 Darren Tobin (@nerrad1964) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia contacted Virgin customer services on 22nd October to terminate broadband contract( 1 month notice). I was assured I would receive an email to confirm termination-nothing received. Heard this happens a lot and then Virgin challenge-pls sort.

  • niallthorpe08 Niall Thorpe (@niallthorpe08) reported from London, England

    So we’ve waited 4 weeks for @virginmedia to install our TV and WiFi, telling us it’s been in the flat before, they get here finally and say it’s never been in the flat and we can’t have it! So they’ve left and we’re back to square one....

  • andycairns Andy Cairns (@andycairns) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia No issues. Ran the test and it didn’t find anything either. Still no internet. Wired and WiFi devices.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • UXRohit Rohit Ranjan (@UXRohit) reported

    @virginmedia Do you have any service maintenance going on in Greenford London Area. (UB6 8QL) . My home internet connection down from past one hour.

  • Yonzinho06 John17 (@Yonzinho06) reported

    @virginmedia Your compensation is beyond laughable, you only pay out for consecutive days down for a prolonged period of time so it does matter if my internet goes down for an hour in the morning and a few hours at night every day, its a total loop hole by virgin to get out of paying out!!

  • bethym09 Beth Mitchell (@bethym09) reported

    @virginmedia But why are you the only service not to have reached an agreement? Virgin need to accept there are competitors out there. Get off your high horse and reach a deal! Also 'improve'.

  • Occasion_Kitch TheOccasionalKitchen (@Occasion_Kitch) reported

    @Churchill next level exceptional customer services ... @virginmedia could learn ALOT from you. Problem dealt with, over social media in less than 3 days. .... it’s been 18 months with @virginmedia

  • LigerJay Jay Jay (@LigerJay) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is still there. Tried the methods from your link.

  • chrismccausland Chris McCausland - 2022 tour on sale! (@chrismccausland) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. It just says all service is down. Not fixed until tomorrow. It did this on Wednesday as well.

  • savesnine1 saves (@savesnine1) reported

    @virginmedia The signal is simply not constant - as demonstrated by frustrated work calls - it’s been this way for years in Crawley / it’s never sorted

  • bethym09 Beth Mitchell (@bethym09) reported

    @virginmedia please can you hurry up and get @DisneyPlusUK as an app on your service? You've lost things like Disney Junior and the other Disney Channels. I'm sure I'm not the only customer desperate for you to get your *** into gear and make a deal.

  • MartinDoverty Martin Doverty (@MartinDoverty) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and STILL have access to their account when I login at your website. I’ve even contacted them myself to try get them to just verify the correct email but they’ve taken to ignoring me after one email back. Sure they’d appreciate an upgrade in package..

  • G2Jay ⒿⒿ P@el (@G2Jay) reported

    @virginmedia This means that I will still have no incoming calls, no call divert & still get fully charged for a service that I am not fully receiving! #poorcustomerservice #ripoff
