  • FiorePanke Fiorenza M. J. Panke 🇪🇺 (@FiorePanke) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down! It’s connected but it doesn’t work! I tried everything, also calling your support team but still on hold!

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @adelarks @GemMcK13 @virginmedia Just cancel your contract if you're not getting the service

  • aubreydav1s Aubrey Davis (@aubreydav1s) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Still down. So I’ve now missed two live games and soccer Saturday. Been on hold at your call centre for 30 minutes now as well

  • AngusTeee Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia No - you don’t seem to think anything’s wrong. But there is - our neighbours also have no service. So there’s definitely a problem.

  • KeithBursnall Keith Bursnall (@KeithBursnall) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia According to your website broadband connectivity is fine and TV is experiencing some issues with certain channels. I have no broadband and no channels at all

  • AngusTeee Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @curu You don’t need to take my details. You just need to be able to communicate clearly what is going on. I finally spoke to someone who said there’d been ‘a breakdown in the digital network in the area’ - whatever that means - and gave a 2am estimated time of resolution. 🤞

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @tinytwink @virginmedia Not the rubbish customer service line, wish you luck

  • AngusTeee Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @curu We appreciate your sympathy but we need action. And I’m gonna need therapy if I have to keep listening to the same three awful songs on a loop on your 0345 number - I’ve been on hold for over 40 minutes now ... 😐

  • andrewjthorp Andrew James Thorp (@andrewjthorp) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Every interaction with you overseas call centre is a horrible experience, long wait times, bad English, wrong information & get passed around the system. The only way to get anywhere is to threaten to leave and suddenly you are transferred to the UK where the problem is resolved!

  • andrewjthorp Andrew James Thorp (@andrewjthorp) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    I love @virginmedia products, but detest their overseas call centres. Customer service is appalling! Been on the current call for 40 minutes and now I’m apparently being transferred somewhere else! I’m only trying to sort my contract out....

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Virgin Media, you are the worst! Offering me a paltry £20 compensation for 10 days of total service loss. You deny it was a total loss not intermittent so I am not eligible for Ofcom compensation! False! #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • FelicityJBee Felicity Bainbridge (@FelicityJBee) reported from Poplar, England

    Disgraceful customer service by @virginmedia - 15 min wait to discuss £20 increase in bill with no comms. RUDE staff ‘I don’t care if you want to leave’, immediate transfer and 15 more mins of music... APPALLED. #CustomerService #fail

  • clarecloggs30 Clare Foran (@clarecloggs30) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia ur customer service is absolutely shocking trying to sort an issue on my mum's account and keep getting robbed off by offshore call centre I'm not happy would like to speak to someone that can actually listen and help

  • mattlfc78 Matt Browne (@mattlfc78) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia your customer service has been awful my wife was on hold for an hour and a half and now your staff have given me a new package without my consent!!!

  • AngusTeee Angus Teee (@AngusTeee) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia For the first time, I got a text confirming you had done the work - and the service appears to be working now. Let’s hope it stays that way ... 🤞 Very disappointed by the confusion on your website last night plus a 45 minute wait to speak to technical support

  • CraigFamilyBlog Hayley & Gavin (@CraigFamilyBlog) reported from St Albans, England

    Gav and I have had no mobile phone service for 3 days, but I have no service to call @virginmedia to let them know! It happens far too regularly. Just spent the morning searching for a new deal. @O2 looks like the best so far!

  • Holly_Christie Holly Christie (@Holly_Christie) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @james_etheridge @virginmedia I found Virgin so unreliable and their customer service so terrible that in the end I left them after 8 years of loyalty because I just couldn't work out what I was even paying for...

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia When my broadband went down and I had to deal with your customer service #virginmedia #fixmybroadband #poorcustomerservice

  • andrewjthorp Andrew James Thorp (@andrewjthorp) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    After finally ending up speaking to a UK call centre all sorted! @virginmedia please sort of your customer service issues!

  • telpierce Terry Pierce (@telpierce) reported from Islington, England

    45 mins/3 departments and counting to speak to the right person at @virginmedia simply to terminate when we move... And then they ask why we don't want to stay! Every single interaction with that business is abysmal.

  • AnnJames7 Ann James (@AnnJames7) reported

    @virginmedia At present I have service....it seems to have returned overnight

  • Mb27p_EU Matty (@Mb27p_EU) reported

    @virginmedia Ran a test, showing up as no faults/issues

  • jon_denby Jon Denby (@jon_denby) reported

    @virginmedia I mean this has been existent since Saturday. Appreciate you want us to monitor this, but if it's an area issue why haven't we been notified, and why should I be actively monitoring this?

  • jonnykeens Jonny Keens (@jonnykeens) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks. Called 150 and someone offered a better price than the one I'm on at the minute within 30 seconds. Hours after I had started an online chat, where no one would help me, you dismissed me on here and after I'd already agreed to join Vodafone. Maybe better training for all?

  • Sr_Cachi Senior Cachi (@Sr_Cachi) reported

    @VirginMediaIEPR @VirginMediaIE @libertyglobal Virgin Media internet is not working in Dublin 8 since the last two hours. Please fix it guys, we're working from home here😭

  • _AngelLady_ Gail (@_AngelLady_) reported

    @virginmedia my elderly mother’s landline is down - again! Second time in as many weeks. Not acceptable as she is hard of hearing and struggles with her mobile.
