    @virginmedia The @virginmedia box has completely broken down since yesterday & we can’t watch TV. My broadband is also affected. I’m a fairly new customer & I’ve had constant issues since moving from @sky I’ve now got to wait until Saturday before a technician can come & repair everything 👎🏼

    @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.

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin Media, I’m trying to pay my monthly broadband bill online but when choosing pay bill it keeps redirecting me to your help page, so I can’t pay atm. When will this be fixed (won’t be paying late fees). Many thanks 🙏

    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hi, yes I did. But still no service before I left home. Online service checker just said problems with TV & Broadband in my postcode area. Currently not at home, but will check upon my return.

    @virginmedia I managed to pay it in the end but please could you fix your website…there’s some weird redirecting happening when trying to either view or pay your bill. London/Broadband

    Virgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia how do I connect to London Underground WiFi now you have turned off your own hotspots? Hopefully you are not just depriving all Virgin Media customers of the service! Especially as you are putting all your prices up!

  • angelstorm13
    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

  • MannyMontanaro
    Manny Montanaro (@MannyMontanaro) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia I won’t hold my breath fir that to happen. By the way, will @virginmedia still send me an invoice even though I’ve had no TV and ultra slow #broadband for a week? I think I already know the answer to that 🤔👎🏼

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

    @BrianBr41198151 There service has become appalling on the phone today 98mins then they cut me off no resolution to the problem been with em over 25yrs Virgin Media's customer service is non existent think twice before you sign up.

    @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.

    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    Oops! Virgin Media seems to be down in N LDN, or is it just me @virginmedia

    @virginmedia How long have you got? I have just sat down in a restaurant to cry on a friend’s shoulder. The nice server said, “how are you?” I just burst into tears! Seriously. My disappointment is palpable. I want to go back to @BT

  • silvergoatish

    @virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.

  • 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.

    @MariaSale8 @virginmedia I think you should carry your responses at this sound quite rude. I was advised I have an engineer booked for tomorrow between 4 pm and 7 pm. Please confirm I’m disabled and housebound and on Oxygen.

    @virginmedia @hockeybee Taking too long to sort this issue. Listen to your Technician who said a new Box is required. I may be 82 but you will not come out of this good. Paddy Sweeney

    @teenarani @virginmedia Hopefully it gets back up and running ASAP. Went to go onto my laptop and couldn't connect to the Internet that's the only reason I new it was down otherwise I wouldn't have

    Sarah Poyntz (@sarah1986) reported

    @ryantegan @skytv We’ve just gone the other way, @virginmedia was not interested in keeping a customer of 10 years+, cost was literally going to double! We’ve switched to Sky but are ready to play flip flop between the 2 for the foreseeable as we know neither of them has any interest in loyalty!
