    @Whiskey_Mick @virginmedia We’ve just had the same experience - waited 8 days. Not a word from them. Not a human spoken to. If I had another choice I’d drop them. 0/10 for customer service.

    When will virgin media ever get it right? Almost every week there is a outage. Well overpriced as well.

    @virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me to the auto bot/live chat messaging service which has no use at all as no one is actually responding.

    @virginmedia This is the standard service received from you if you have a fault!

    I called @virginmedia back and they are now saying they won’t be able to install my internet until February 15th, a month after they sent me the modem. They’ve already activated my account and are charging me, but are telling me that shouldn’t have happened and they can’t fix it.

    @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.

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

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  • ZJM_331
    CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

  • nan2thou
    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

    And it's down again. #virginmedia

    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

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

    @virginmedia No, I have TV service only and the live chat agent said I would get the compensation form.

    anyone else’s virgin media down?

  • LauraVCook1980
    Laura Cook (@LauraVCook1980) reported from Hatfield, England

    @virginmedia disappointed after 10 years of being a loyal customer that I can’t pause my monthly payments for 11 weeks while I’m not at home and no one using the broadband or TV!

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

    @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 🤷🤷🤷

  • JacobWSmith10
    Jacob Smith (@JacobWSmith10) reported from Camden, England

    @virginmedia @skytv can you please sort out the sky sports app. I cannot login in using my virgin media account. It will not load the password page. I don’t really see why it logs me out periodically in the first place.

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

    Been on hold for @virginmedia technical support now for THREE hours and still no answer. This is beyond a joke

    @rossmckinley @virginmedia Good luck. We got rid as the price sky rocketed, trying to cancel was a nightmare.

  • Steven12109

    @virginmedia I've been on hold for one hour and 20 minutes, to correct a mistake on your billing! You really are a crap company!

  • peter_mcclurg

    @virginmedia your app says intermittent issues yet your call centre automated response says no issues Utter shambles of a company.

    @katybye007 @virginmedia Ive been waiting 3 hours!!!!! Need to renew/cancel contract urgently. This is beyond a joke!!!!!!!

  • SprocketEtQuill
    Sam Greenland (@SprocketEtQuill) reported

    @virginmedia Another Virgin Media engineer came out again to bury the cable from house to street. The cable is now in trunking over ground and the internet service was severed. You have said it will take yet another on-site engineer to fix the connection and left me without a connection for the week - until an engineer is available. You have, however, paid £100 towards the cost of the alternative internet provider. Your logic was £30 for data (on a #GiffGaff SIM card which I chose) and £70 for a dongle. I bought a £120 4G modem for external use that connects directly to my #Unifi switch on WAN2, bypassing your hub altogether and giving a connection back to my whole house rather than just one computer with a USB port. Given it's taken since November to bury this cable, I'm not convinced tomorrow's engineer will be able to fix the connection or bury the cable. We will see how the day unfolds. Your contact centre staff all aim to be very helpful, and your service (when it's working) does provide a decent connection most of the time, but your implementation is lacking.

    @virginmedia @ChiBkSequels Hey Virgin media, I need to cancel/renegotiate my contract. 30days notice is due at latest next Friday. Do I have e to send you a letter of cancellation or can I actually speak to a human to discuss reduced services/broadband only option, before it’s too late?

  • nurburgringuk
    nurburgringuk (@nurburgringuk) reported

    @virginmedia I am a long standing customer of 20 years, can you please explain WHY new customers get significantly better deals than loyal ones? This is legalised ROBBERY and a SCAM. Quite possibly THE worst company I've EVER dealt with. Contract CANCELLED.

  • JustAnAlienOk
    RogerSmithUpInThisBitch (@JustAnAlienOk) reported

    @virginmedia Estimated fix time 13th May is ridiculous. What’s the point of spending that much money if it always stops working every month?

  • NRandonFactor
    Neil Randon (@NRandonFactor) reported

    Virgin Media broadband has been down all morning. Tried twice to speak to someone but held in queue for now more than three hours. Utterly useless @virginmedia
