    @virginmedia so my services, since being installed have not worked more than they have worked. As first impressions go this is very bad. If this isn’t fixed by this afternoon I will cancel my services as im still within 14 days cooling period.

    @virginmedia reply to your tweet “NO” my wife pays a lot of money to your company for a poor service.

  • LiisaJane LiisaJane'x (@LiisaJane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.

  • cooperthecub Cooperthecub (@cooperthecub) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Please can you help. Yet again my download and upload speeds are terrible can’t load or download anything. I’m paying for 110mbps but you give me 7mbps and less than 1mbps upload. Your ruining my business I pay you guys so much cash and my issues never get callbacks

  • NickLovell_ Nick Lovell (@NickLovell_) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia new broadband install today, was working fine now nothing. Your website won’t allow me to set up my account to check local service. Im an ex virgin engineer so know what to do and check. No Down or upstream signals. Same for neighbours. Get this sorted immediately

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia This issue is now appalling. Now I will not have internet connectivity for at least 3 days. That is unacceptable and I will have to wait until a new router arrives which is shocking

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia we done that, all connections are in to the box, your company network thinks that we are connected via router this not so, but has a cable run into the house.

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia is down again for our entire block and the CS line is still closed. 3 weeks in a row. No status update and same issue. Not looking good here

  • gavJball Gavin Ball (@gavJball) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia any issues in Bexleyheath, DA7. No internet. Disappeared at 12:30 today

  • moonducks2 moonducks (@moonducks2) reported

    @virginmedia has the worst service ever! Our broadband is down for almost a month and nobody cares to fix it. Appointments get cancelled every day without a notice. I made severel complaints and still nothing. Avoid if you can!!!

  • fourpocketsfulI aziz (@fourpocketsfulI) reported

    @virginmedia says no issue but we all have really slow connection even with wired ethernet

  • gardener092 fred hancock (@gardener092) reported

    @virginmedia Why are you asking me John? There is still nothing happening, the phone is still dead. My question is, when are VM going to fix it.

  • RowleyDenis Denis Rowley (@RowleyDenis) reported

    @virginmedia The fact that it happened in the first place is the issue. This was an error at your end that has resulted in my wife and I being unable to work and yet there's no way to have the issue resolved quickly

  • candoodle83 Candice pickering (@candoodle83) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done this, I can’t get wifi in most rooms of my house, spent an hour on hold to speak to customer services, he ‘fixed’ the issue only for it to break again an hour later

  • moonducks2 moonducks (@moonducks2) reported

    @virginmedia yes I did, and there isn't any issues in the area. I spoke to the area manager last week and I was he would handle the situation personally. that was a week ago.nothing happened

  • Mash369 CJ (@Mash369) reported

    @virginmedia Just a shame your customer service is shite.

  • GastroSurrey Dr Deb Majumdar, MD, FRCP (@GastroSurrey) reported

    @virginmedia I'm sure you can understand how unhelpful @virginmedia customer service has been with the problem lingering since Oct/Nov 2020. Is this the quality of service @virginmedia aspires to? I am sure you do not take direct debits off my account intermittently.

  • HettyGullifer Hetty Gullifer (@HettyGullifer) reported

    @virginmedia there is an issue with the wifi in our area (SW4) and you say you are fixing it, but when I phone it says fixed by 10am today but web page says fixed by 10am 15th Feb - can you confirm which?

  • KieranSumner Kieran 🏂 (@KieranSumner) reported

    @virginmedia It was made over the phone through one of your advisors. I’ve found the “complaint tracker” but whoever raised the complaint has raised it with an incorrect contact number. They’ve put a landline as my preferred contact which nobody will be able to reach me on as I don’t use it.
