    @virginmedia help why have you made it so difficult to log a landline vault on line. Need to call, as line out of order since friday. I am certain it's systems fault as display message I have seen on previous occasions.

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted, called the number, it says there is a known issue in my area and engineers are working on it. Does this take 5 days to fix? I try the status online and it tells me everything is fine but it isn’t. Is there anyone looking at this. I’ve never had an issue last this long

  • rhymerrigby
    Rhymer Rigby (@rhymerrigby) reported from London, England

    @scribblercat @virginmedia The frequency of posts like this is why I'll never leave BT. IME, they're reliable and I care about that far more than speed, price, etc.

    @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

    In the last four working days my graphics card has died, my boot up drive has died and now @virginmedia has a national outage. Get me on holiday now 🙏🏻

    @virginmedia ** PLEASE NOTE ** We don't have human agents supporting troubleshooting / technical issues over our Messaging Platform. If you wish to speak to someone please contact one of the Team on 150 from your Virgin Media Landline or 0345 454 1111 Well that was "helfpul"

  • GabrielaLungu
    Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia it’s been over one month of really poor or inexistent broadband service in London W11. I hope you won’t charge us for the last month.

  • JaneCommon
    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t but everybody in my area having problems and we are all fuming.

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Just spoke on the phone with an agent called Denande; I explained to her that days ago other Virgin agents reassured us that we would get compensation towards our next bill due to this outage and she said they lied to us and we won’t get any. This whole mess is becoming a circus

  • befitat50
    Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Lambeth, England

    You still have not fixed the internet at Sw4 @virginmedia ???? What do you reckon your subscribers think of you? Good or bad ???

  • Liamsmith260493
    Liam Smith (@Liamsmith260493) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Our Wifi has been down since yesterday can you help please

  • ravinrr80
    Ravin 🇹🇹🇬🇧 (@ravinrr80) reported from Merton, England

    Hey @virginmedia I already am paying more with this new package I was forced to take to renew my contract recently and now you want to force me to pay £7 MORE a month?! Also why can I not get a human on the phone?! I refuse to pay a penny more. Fix this nonsense.

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Brilliant get out clause @virginmedia. What you fail to realise is that when your so called service goes down for hours at a time, over the course of time amounts to so, so so much more than 48 hours!! Roll on switching of providers.

  • charbster
    Charbster (@charbster) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia do you have website issues? Chat function not responding.

  • KateRenton
    Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @Chelsea1504 @virginmedia That’s why we got rid of ALL providers, the customer service and costs were awful.

  • HunteLucy
    Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @themotablogger @virginmedia Terrible in Dagenham too! At least 3 times a day it drops out and normally in the middle of an important meeting! Not good enough!!

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Can you just send a technician over to us? I’d assume you’d prioritise a customer that has been left with no Internet for 5 days? I’m not going to post the issue on an online forum, I’m asking you to provide support please.

  • melvynmalloch
    Melvyn Malloch (@melvynmalloch) reported

    @virginmedia connected to your network yet they worked perfectly with @TalkTalk without any issues. It's so frustrating

  • DomWarr

    Isnt it insane how **** @virginmedia are as a company and how nothing gets done about it @Ofcom

  • RudolphHart
    RudolphHart #FarageWillSellTheNHS #FarageTraitor (@RudolphHart) reported

    @virginmedia I have had more outages with you on this supposedly "no outages" 1gb fibre than I have ever had with talktalk, and I am really pissed of! I am seriously considering leaving you early and making a complaint to offcom.

  • cornynthecob
    Suzanne Cornyn (@cornynthecob) reported

    My Internet has been intermittent over the last 3 weeks. @virginmedia engineer was supposed to come out today but never turned up. Turns out he signed the job off as completed even tho he didn't turn up. Internet still going off and on.

    @marypaul32 @virginmedia Every organisation appears to be incompetent. Its on such a grand scale now that it seems deliberate because such things do stress the human bodi. We got hold of Asda mobile and thei said it could take 2 days to fix but it's on now. I am way behind with stuff though. 8wks ombdsma

  • DerekXMorriss79
    Derek Xavier Morriss (@DerekXMorriss79) reported

    @virginmedia any reason the WiFi signal keeps dropping out every 5 minutes or so? It really is appalling

  • Vicky51308928
    Vicky 💖 (@Vicky51308928) reported

    @virginmedia your internet causing my son to have huge meltdowns. I am paying for a service that is incompetent, unreliable and damaging to my son due to his very severe condition. Last month your staff called my sons disability a ‘mental breakdown’- not acceptable

  • weeleesa
    Lisa Harvey (@weeleesa) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on in EK G74 area? Estimated fix 3pm and been down since last night?? Surely can’t take so long to fix.

  • missjnyc1
    Jeanette (@missjnyc1) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely ridiculous that according to your customer service team no technicians in your company work over the weekend. So we are left without broadband for 5 days as it hasn’t worked since yesterday and the earliest someone can come out is Monday between 5pm & 7pm
