  • chrisMU19 Chris (@chrisMU19) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no internet for 6 hours. I’ve followed all online steps to fix it and none of them worked. Been on hold to 150 for 2 hours now. Can someone please assist?

  • kilomilesy colin miles (@kilomilesy) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia 11 days without a landline and 17 texts giving a time and date estimating the fix to be done by and failed every time. Oh well let’s see what tomorrow brings! Crap Virginmedia

    @virginmedia The engineer didn’t turn up today. I’ve been on hold for hours and still have no services. Please can someone help us?

  • Inactive95 Neil (@Inactive95) reported from Romford, England

    @SunveerC26 @_amansanger_ @virginmedia This is so rude, how do u guys have footage of me waiting for the internet to come back up 👀👀 booky

  • chrisMU19 Chris (@chrisMU19) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m having issues connecting to WiFi this morning. Phone said I had weak security. I updated the security online, the warning message has gone but WiFi still not working. Can you assist please?

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    @westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I have better things to do with my time than phoning @virginmedia The system should pick up on this. Virgin’s system is quick to chase me regarding the return of a bloody hub. Absolutely atrocious service.

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia continue to having problems on broadband se6 london. 1 hr waiting someone answer at the phone or on chat. I seriously think to cancel my contract

  • pauldurie p2.0 ✊🏻 🏳️‍🌈 #BLM (@pauldurie) reported from London, England

    @PippaCrerar @virginmedia If you're using a Virgin router I would buy another one as they're useless Main issue I found was they don't switch between 2.4GHz/5GHz very well If you want stronger signal then switch off 5GHz

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    Anyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia No. We still don’t have any internet or TV and haven’t spoken to anyone. @VodafoneUK have sorted us out with extra mobile data. Can you share an email address so I can make a formal complaint please.

  • YOGACTIVEYOGA YVETTE OBERTELLI (@YOGACTIVEYOGA) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia I do need further assistance as my router is 10 years old and my interbet is on an off daily i lost so much work over this as neef to teach online and even my children are unable to do their homeworks. I tried to book an engineer to come out but your page is not working either!

  • Andrew007Uk Dr Andrew Fleming (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    .@virginmedia - my internet is faulty, your automated help is not helping, you call centre is closed and I have never been able to make your on line services work since you involuntarily ceased paper based communications. Please can someone get in touch?

    @virginmedia @3mir3li Poor quality connection. Not good enough 😕😞...

  • markbradley1986 Mark (@markbradley1986) reported

    @MarkCarruthers_ @virginmedia Had virgin a fair few times over the years at different homes but I will never go back to them again. They have by far the most broadband outages I've ever had and the most in contract price hikes to match. A truly awful company.

  • Mentalhealthjo5 Mental health journey (@Mentalhealthjo5) reported

    @virginmedia having to use my personal hotspot to work from home cause once again your internet has gone down in our area. It really is getting beyond a joke now!

  • peahen80 Hannah Peacock (@peahen80) reported

    @virginmedia why why why is my broadband disconnecting everyday in W14!!!! Everyday “an engineer is on their way to fix the problem”. not good enough!!!!

  • Sum_K6 Sum (@Sum_K6) reported

    @virginmedia Hi The WiFi is intermittent. I ran tests last night and there was a known issue in my area, this morning it says the service in my area is working and my hub is working fine. I'm trying to check the devices but that option on the Service Status page has a "technical issue"

  • 3mir3li ✒️𝓐𝓶𝓲𝓻 𝓐𝓫𝓾 𝓐𝓫𝓭𝓾𝓻𝓻𝓪𝓱𝓶𝓪𝓷 (@3mir3li) reported

    Another outage at virgin media with their worse offshore support in India. "Sorry sir not understand" is all I get @virginmedia where's my refund?

  • loginhari Harry (@loginhari) reported
