    @virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV

  • martinaspiers Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England

    @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

  • ClaireWinslade Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported from Sheffield, England

    Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

  • BMiller36990477 -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

  • benbrailsford Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

  • olibrown77 Oli B (@olibrown77) reported from Sheffield, England

    @pauldevine1986 @virginmedia We are still down in S7. Nearly 24 hours now. Saying 2pm is the updated fix time. But that keeps getting pushed back 🙄😡

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

  • TWO_Librans Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

  • Hi1mMark88 Mark Hewitt (@Hi1mMark88) reported from Sheffield, England

  • jamiewhalley87 Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

  • mandybaps1 Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

    @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  • soraya72 SorayaWilkinson-Wyke (@soraya72) reported

    @Simpsonius @virginmedia Going though same in Camden London now, they say they're working on it but it's 2 days & they say hope to be fixed by July 1st (but no guarantee). They're absolutely awful!

  • Lcawte Lewis Cawte (@Lcawte) reported

    @virginmedia It will be, but, had it come up with the terrible WhatsApp chat bot thing as well.

  • amylpatch Amy David (@amylpatch) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Since you did maintenance on B/band in our area 3 weeks ago. It keeps cutting out. At least once a day. Some times router needs a restart. Some of my smart devices need a restart every time it cuts out. As it is a blip I can't see issue via status. DMed details.

  • Col_Dunn Colin Dunn (@Col_Dunn) reported

    @SiManM20 @virginmedia There is an outage in the area “We hope to fix this by 28 June at 6:05”. Found out after mine went out just after midnight.

  • soraya72 SorayaWilkinson-Wyke (@soraya72) reported

    @virginmedia Camden London NW1 area still down, No WiFi 2 days now, & going into 3rd. Customer service never give honest answer & now online says alls fine but when you call told outage in that postcode & the problem is affecting the status updates!!! Such an uncaring company!

  • Constouche Constance H. (@Constouche) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi issue. It says that my hub isn’t connected properly. Have never touched it, but still did the full reconnection process 3 or 4 times. Guess what? Still not working 👍🏼

  • JohnWareWCP John Ware (@JohnWareWCP) reported

    @virginmedia I've still heard nothing. This is becoming ridiculous now. 5 days until it's been 28 days since I submitted my complaint...
