    Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia Think it's more to do with the upgrade work then; when I select Help from the Help & Settings menu, the screen goes blank. I'm thinking it needs a network connection to work. Any plans for a Hub with built in 02 sim to increase connectivity? Currently hot spotting my phone.

    @virginmedia Just spend over an hour on live chat/phone. Your service means weโ€™ll be nearly two weeks without internet!

  • angelrosie5

    @virginmedia still waiting for a manager to call me. Complete incompetence and lack of customer service by this company! Another customer lost!

    Currently receiving terrible customer service from @virginmedia. Strongly considering ending my contact with them and going elsewhere!!

    @virginmedia the tv connection has had a fault since 8th June. You are "working on it", & each day checking status the date to fix is moved further away. You do not refund for lack of service why is that? And text updates are not received. And its STILL not working.

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have checked the service status, it is the first thing I do & all was fine. The issues is with the cable Ethernet & the phone connection in the Hub 4. I donโ€™t use your WiFi setup as my house is fully cabled for networking. I am a Network Architect, so have done basic tests

  • mihaialaci
    Mitzy (@mihaialaci) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia They escalated my complaint,but looks like the package is not available to us.When my contact expires will definitely looking at other options as I donโ€™t trust Virgin Media anymore

  • tonyps1977
    Tony Patis-Stannard (@tonyps1977) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia your service is shocking and spent 40mins on the phone to be told you canโ€™t connect my call and to try again, you have my contact details get in touch with me as I want to speak to someone about the service Iโ€™m not gettingโ€ฆ

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

  • Slatsman

    @virginmedia please provide an urgent update on this lengthy outage and when services will be restored #Virgin #Virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage

    @Marcroy_Smith @virginmedia Same here and customer service not available either

  • BBLn15

    @virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still havenโ€™t passed security. Thatโ€™s some service

  • Katie3boys

    @virginmedia shocking service with the internet

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

    @virginmedia I cancelled my broadband subscription in October and Virgin have kept charging me for landline although other provider inform me that they are providing service I just want to close the Virgin account

  • andy_s_battle
    Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia Just spouting corporate line does not improve the situation. No advanced notice, no resolution to problem, appointment missed, but if I am not here for a visit I am fined. This is very one sided for a service that has other companies wanting the business

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

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

  • _Lewis_A
    Lewis Allen โš’ (@_Lewis_A) reported from Romford, England

    On phone to @virginmedia for 55 mins to cancel, speak to 4 different people about a mis-sold service and then when I ask them to produce my contract they hang up. Not happy.

  • TravellingAdam
    travelling Adam (@TravellingAdam) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia my internet is constantly not working itโ€™s really frustrating.

  • feyipuk
    Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia Phoned, and as expected; they can't just "put this right". The equipment and service are working fine. That the dish is broken and there is little slack to enable me to bury the cable deeper is due to local engineers. Will just have to dig trench, break cable and wait again!

    @virginmedia Are there known issues in the se3 post code? Your service status page is also not working

  • NicolaG01
    Nicola Golding (@NicolaG01) reported

    Day 3 of no internet and almost zero communication from @virginmedia. Got a text on Friday saying issue fixed (clearly not) and nothing since. Went on the service tracker to sign up for updates. Still nothing.

  • simmo1024
    Stanley Percival Simmonds (@simmo1024) reported

    In addition, ISP have controls that block content. Virgin Media for example have a fairly fine-tunable system. If you go into any school of college, their internet is filtered. The technology exists to enable the bill payer to control internet access. But of course this is not, and never has been about protecting children, it is about digital ID.

    @virginmedia Is there anything you can offer to help us out ? I have to work and we have no entertainment for the evening / weekend

    @virginmedia absolutely terrible wifi this afternoon this is not the service Iโ€™m paying for !!! Really fed up of this

  • The_Broski_Boot
    AJ (@The_Broski_Boot) reported

    @virginmedia we are now over 12 hours into this issue without any meaningful update Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, services must be provided with reasonable care and skill. A prolonged outage without resolution or communication may breach this. Can you please update

  • Neek49
    Monique Bissell (@Neek49) reported

    @virginmedia I understand, however your estimates keep extending without any end in sight. We donโ€™t get this service for free. We pay for it. At what point do you let us know that it is broken beyond repair and we should move on. I can handle us breaking up for good, promise
