    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.

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now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

  • dionnepat2000
    Dionne (@dionnepat2000) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia I shouldn’t have to. It’s a new issue that other people are having too. I can turn off wifi on my phone and it’s fine. Please tell them who fix things to fix it. Not only me

    So it turns out @virginmedia have a help system that isn’t helpful. Catch-22 built into system and no tv. Why am I paying them?

    @virginmedia Do you, or could you make a TV box remote for the elderly? Tiny buttons with tinier symbols instead of words, black buttons on black body.... Almost impossible for some older people to use. An OAP version with larger coloured buttons would be such a help!

  • 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/

  • 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.

    @virginmedia hi, received my new phone. Except there’s no 4G/5G showing up even though I can send messages, go on social media and I can’t access sky bet. Is there any solution to this?

  • 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!

  • PatricioSimone2
    Patricio Simonetto (@PatricioSimone2) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia wifi doesn’t work. It’s impossible to get in touch with them in the phone. The worst internet service I have had…

  • s_mann71

    @virginmedia sort out your customer services, been trying to cancel my account for over 3 hrs, f*****g usless

  • StephenCavinder
    Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported from Bricket Wood, England

    @virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking

  • essojohn
    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.

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

  • 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 🤷🤷🤷

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    How can it be called Virgin Media when it goes down so much??? #VirginMediaDown

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

    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.

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

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

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

    @virginmedia It’s arranged (3rd time) for engineer visit tomorrow 4-7pm…. I just hope they don’t randomly cancel again

    Jimmy Swanston (@jimswanstonlive) reported

    @EllisMartin @SkySports @virginmedia Funny enough it was working when I watched the EFL cup when Watford played so something wrong somewhere it annoyed me as I couldn't watch the Huddersfield game first game of the season it sucks

  • BlakeyCb48

    @virginmedia But where paying for a service that isn’t working it’s not just a local loss it’s all over

    Can you believe it, Virgin Media red button not working on the first day of the football league season! Must do better

  • cix_stormrage
    Jack 🎗️🧡 (@cix_stormrage) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia Yes, that’s a standard line. It worth saying you want to leave. The you usually get through to someone who can help.

    @_hayleighhxo @virginmedia It's stupid ruined it last night cudnt watch cas vs hull let's see wt next games like thank god St's wakeys not on the red button hate to think what other two games are gonna be like useless

  • SamReesO
    Sam Rees (@SamReesO) reported

    @Keiran_Mark @StephenP311275 @virginmedia Yeah I know but it doesn’t always work out that way. Especially when watching live sports like F1. They only give you highlights not the full programme. Actually just found out you can get SkyQ if you call them. But point is their customer care is no better than Virgin now.

  • Laitty
    Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately this workaround isn’t suitable. My father is nearly 80 and would not even know what an app is, let alone be able to download one, sign in, enable location services or use a web player.

  • Cruffers
    Cruffers (@Cruffers) reported

    @virginmedia No you can’t log on in that way. I’ve tried it. And we shouldn’t have to when we’ve paid for the service. Very poor.

    Post-mortems are due to be carried out today on the bodies of five teenagers who died in a head-on collision on the M9 in Co Kildare in the early hours of yesterday morning. Gardaí say their car was driving the wrong way down the motorway when the crash happened. Three women and a 7-year-old boy, who were travelling in the second car, remain in hospital with critical and serious injuries. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY
