    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already terminated my service with you since you were unable to get it installed in less than a month.

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

  • mistervickster
    Vignesh (@mistervickster) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia how do you have the worst customer service ? Will just have to book a technician to sort out issues with account login.

  • vijayjois
    Vijay Jois (@vijayjois) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia what is the problem with #broadband this morning?

  • Gosbo68
    Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

  • beccaleigh99
    Rebecca Gould (@beccaleigh99) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia hello, since you ‘upgraded’ the WiFi in our area - Clerkenwell- the WiFi signal has been terrible. To whom shall I complain? Thanks

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM

  • raimundo
    raimundo vazquez (@raimundo) reported from Tottenham, England

    Hi @virginmedia. Any chance of sorting the service in N15? Even your status page is unable to run tests but you keep informing me that there is not a problem. It is becoming quite regular feature these drops in service

  • g_neale
    Geoff Neale (@g_neale) reported from Camden Town, England

    @premierinn no Free WiFi or Ultimate WiFi at Premier Inn Euston. Twitter has lots of other complaints of the same issue nationally… why I am asked to speak to Virgin Media, how hard can it be? Forget Network does not force the page to reload, what else can I do?

  • emmalouchu
    Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England

    @BBCWatchdog I was without TV service with Virgin Media for over a week this month, could only use chat bot, eventually a live chat with a person because I took to twitter, but they couldn't help me either. Still waiting for the comp form they said would come automatically.

    @virginmedia @NatGeoUK "We hope to fix this by 25 January at 16:00" But what's this? Do you really imagine a world where people don't have to work and can stand all your frequent service disruption? #daylight_robbery

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

  • BancoDePapa
    グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from Haringey, England

    @virginmedia can I have the customer service number to cancel my broadband.... There are seemingly better deals out there for faster services

  • GraemePuttock
    Graeme Puttock (@GraemePuttock) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Hi John, thanks for getting back to me. The call was in regards to a problem with my broadband which luckily after an hour on the phone to a really helpful operator was discovered to be a known issue in the area that was being updated late on the system. 1/2

  • marionmurray13
    Maz 💙 (@marionmurray13) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Was fixed to discuss how I put a complaint in for compensation but guess what ?? I received no call.

  • SanderjoJohn
    John Sanderson (@SanderjoJohn) reported from Barnet, England

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

  • essojohn
    Johnny Allen 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⚒WHU (@essojohn) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    VIRGIN MEDIA beware over 25 yrs a customer, there customer service has hit rock bottom what an appalling company to deal with anybody had the same experience please pass on.

  • browngaybitch
    BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    Absolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Customer Service is shocking. It’s now almost 6 hours since I asked on WhatsApp for email address to be corrected and I’m still waiting for a response.

  • sam_batty
    Sam Batty (@sam_batty) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia We’ve been disconnected early. Been trying for nearly an hour on your live chat but no help provided at all. Still waiting.

    I have never in my adult life had to deal with a more inept bunch of incompetent people than those who work at virgin media, I wager I would get more sense from an extinct species than I would from their "customer service" department

  • StephenHampson
    Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported

    @virginmedia Do better for your customers. Take the feedback on board and amend your help pages to include the streaming box. Walk in our shoes and think how you feel when a big company treats you like dirt and still takes your money without a problem.. but you won't .

  • christophlander
    Chris Lander (@christophlander) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your faux sympathy, but its still not working. Terrible service. Is there a way to compensate for this?

  • Si_67
    Si (@Si_67) reported

    @virginmedia Whenever I use your service checker, I get the message: "Intermittent signal in your area..." etc I go through the charade of checking the equipment (knowing it's not that) to get the stock message: "Don’t worry, we’re looking into this issue..."etc. This is all the time now.

  • Barbiknow
    Abbey (@Barbiknow) reported

    @virginmedia In the kitchen it’s very bad, bad in the bathroom, worse upstairs and it’s very frustrating. I just upgraded to a faster bandwidth but I haven’t seen a single difference except for that I am paying more money.

  • Bargainhunter85
    Simon Fitzgerald 🇺🇦 (@Bargainhunter85) reported

    @virginmedia We sent back our equipment weeks ago and now we have a message saying we’re being charged £90 can you help?

  • Tellmewhat49871
    Tellmewhatyouknow (@Tellmewhat49871) reported

    @virginmedia All our virgin and internet down during England v Argentina. We are not paying this whole month.

    @virginmedia Is the issue in OX4 set to be fixed at midnight or midday tomorrow? Status update page just says 12:07 without an AM/PM.

  • Dadyougeek
    JR (@Dadyougeek) reported

    @virginmedia Is this an automated tweet because you’ve said this many times and not responded to my message! A bit like your engineers turning up to fix things this is a shambles

    Virgin media has been down at some point in the day for the last 3 days now🤬
