  • mizznansea Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England

    @TracyWoodley4 @virginmedia @Virgin Their service has certainly gone down hill and this issue with the call centre is a complete farce. If they can't even get their own internal systems sorted as a telecomms company what hope do we have? My contract is up in March and I will defo be leaving Virgin.

  • sinozza Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I spent over an hour on the phone yesterday trying to get through to a customer service rep only to get cut off. Still waiting to hear on WhatsApp and been on hold this afternoon 45 mins and still holding???? Whats going on??

  • MrChips2000 MrChips (@MrChips2000) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I would like to cancel my recent broadband order. I found a better deal.

  • kellydyke08 Kelly **** (@kellydyke08) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Wow Virgin media TV services are down nationwide due to a power outage. That's an awful lot of compensation.

  • bultifish Nick Bultitude (@bultifish) reported from Gravesend, England

    Hmm, #Skyglass is looking like a decent option if this #virginmedia outage becomes a habit.

  • sinozza Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @ThatNickElse @virginmedia Did you get through in the end Nick...I'm having similar problems to you.

  • MrRockingGooner Mr Rocking Gooner~ Terry 👨‍🎤 (@MrRockingGooner) reported from Romford, England

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Imagine being part of a club or a group where roaming could be free for every mobile phone network automatically across Europe We should join that club sometime.

  • yas326 Yasir ( ̄(工) ̄) Khan (@yas326) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia It just says, it looks like you are having trouble connecting

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia service just gets worse and worse. 3 days with no TV service whatsoever, and now no Internet either in SE7. It's simply not good enough anymore. Your service has been declining rapidly for over a year. Sort it out please.

  • alanburkittgray Alan Burkitt-Gray (@alanburkittgray) reported from London, England

    I have hardly ever heard a good word about @virginmedia service. Why is it so hard to fix?

  • pwingers Paul Wingfield BSc CEng MIET (@pwingers) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have but the download speed is fine. The problem is that you peg the upload speeds down to 10mbs. We used to get that over copper cables. It's time to step it up a notch.

  • MissFayeRay FClay (@MissFayeRay) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia hope you can help please! Our router is a hub 3. It has a constant red light. It’s not over heating, I’ve done multiple hard resets. Any suggestions? Do I need a new router?

  • t3xuga 𝒯𝑒𝓍𝓊𝑔𝒶 (@t3xuga) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia with the new price increase it states with don't need to pay any cancellation fees. My contract ends on the Summer, if I were to cancel do I need to pay the remaining months?

  • 190Colditz 190Colditz (@190Colditz) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia The Broadband is down in our postcode. Your fault system says there is no fault and asking each resident to log a call out which is nonsense. DM me and I’ll give you full postcode so you can sort it out.

  • VenusEnvi VenusEnvi (@VenusEnvi) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!

  • thePompeyPope the pompey pope (@thePompeyPope) reported

    @virginmedia Your faith in your colleagues was sadly misplaced. I have not received the promised email like I have not received any of the promised phone calls. I'm not sure how to progress as it seems that there is no-one capable in VM customer services. How many times must I contact them?

  • iChlxe7 FMChloe ☻ (@iChlxe7) reported

    @virginmedia why when i make a payment towards my bill, the payment never shows up on the app or even shows up in credit? Every time i check the app it constantly says £0 when it should show the amount i have paid???

  • HasanGlobal1 Hasan S (@HasanGlobal1) reported

    @virginmedia No, on your service status page when you check it shows green, meaning no issues, but the TV one shows up as issues. I have now tried ethernet coonection too, including WiFi, no connection.

  • anneb245 Anne (@anneb245) reported

    @virginmedia Internet down in KT8 again 🙁

  • Loken_Moon Mr Moon (@Loken_Moon) reported

    @virginmedia no service all day. Just wondering if the Tories are in charge over there?

  • davidGAAdawson1 𝔇𝔞𝔳𝔢 𝔇𝔞𝔴𝔰𝔬𝔫 (@davidGAAdawson1) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried that and all I get is automated service. Can't actually speak to someone.

  • Swimminggeek Susan Sage (@Swimminggeek) reported

    @Jasmine_Grace_ @virginmedia @laustin35 I have been too. No service two weeks now

  • joncowling Jon Cowling (@joncowling) reported

    @virginmedia disgusting that you agree to someone for a customer in need, and then simply renege on said agreement less than ten days later. Your customer service is utterly disgusting.
