    @virginmedia please fix this issue. Recently not loading some emails over wifi saying it’s to do with network settings. Ok if I turn wifi off. Reading lots of people having the same problem with you on iPhone.

    @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 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

    @virginmedia I lost all services yesterday, without warning. The automated message advised that the fault would be fixed by today! I had to go through numerous teams before I could finally get to speak to someone. This same customer support agent was supposed to call me today once the fault

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

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

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

    @virginmedia Self install as we had determined the tivo box was faulty they sent one but its obviously never been activated from your end despite the hrs I've spent online trying to get it done no one I speak to has a clue what there doing constantly going thro diagnostics not activating it.

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

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same number I’ve had for over 30 years. Read previous tweets! I wanted rid of Virgin because Customer service is really lousy. I see you’re pushing the blame to other provider without evidence. Sounds about right How long wait for someone to answer the phone today?

  • DEDNaive
    Debbs Durston (@DEDNaive) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Look just leave it tonight. If it’s the same in the morning I’ll contact customer service to see how long it will take to close my account. Cheers for trying to help.

    @virginmedia why can I not get through to speak with your customer services? The 1st time, the call centre cut me off. 2nd time the phone options didn't work. Your online Quick Pay is not working. I just want to pay my broadband bill 🤷🤷🤷

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

    @virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/

    PAT WEBB (@nan2thou) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Not now there isn’t. But there was no service at 8am until 10.30. T happens on a regular basis but it doesn’t stop the price going 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

  • silvergoatish
    The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported from Camden, England

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

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

    @virginmedia No I have not and at no stage has any one or any virgin media Web site indicated to do so I have as stated spent hrs on the phone talking to yr people about the problem and now you suggest this I am totally fed up ringing VIRGIN MEDIA and constantly going over the same things.

  • Editmonster
    Stewart Daniels (@Editmonster) reported from Walthamstow, England

    One of many reasons I would never go back to Virgin Media, no matter how much of a “good deal” they are offering. Awful company.

  • LRNA11
    LaurenA (@LRNA11) reported

    @MartinSLewis Another major issue with Virgin Media (and possibly other similar providers) is that they don’t provide customers an option for “No Roll-on” at the end of the contract. Their reminders are puny and twice I got caught with paying almost double monthly rates after contract. 1/

  • kadenbatt

    @virginmedia Internet issue in our area for over 24 hours now and absolutely nothing done to change it. Pay all that money a month for no reason just a scam

  • ramnishkalsi
    Ramnish Kalsi (@ramnishkalsi) reported

    @virginmedia hope you are happy with the extra £200 when you failed to cancel my contract after 2 hours on phone. Karma strikes eventually.

  • AddickAddict
    Gary Naylor (@AddickAddict) reported

    @virginmedia @DevilHatman You've just been fined £28m for deliberately dropping calls, leaving people on hold, not putting cancellations through etc etc. This is absolutely disgraceful and time the Government closed you down for your continued abuse of customers.

    Ross Tristram (@rosstristram) reported

    @Ofcom @Ofcom trousered £28m for themselves. Just as bad as @virginmedia 2 peas in a pod

    Peter Dowsett (@PeterDo19421129) reported

    @Ofcom Virginmedia now there is Terrible company. A fine won't do anything To them. I tried getting rid of Channels only to be told I have to sign up to a New 24 month contract. Corrupt as.

    🇺🇦 Clive Davies #FBPE 🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported

    .@virginmedia So 2 days with no TV, no broadband, no landline and an @o2 mobile with no signal. A fix date of 15th July!!!? Zero means of communication. Totally unreliable. What a dreadful company you are. So pleased you got fined. When will this be fixed?

  • RadarHits
    Radar 🚨 (@RadarHits) reported

    🚨 JUST IN: Ofcom fines Virgin Media a record £28m for deliberately mishandling millions of customer calls and preventing contract cancellations between 2022 and 2024 through tactics including call-dropping and unnecessary transfers.
