    @virginmedia Well you find I'm cancelling my contract with yourselves, hope you go bust, your customer service team is a shambolic embarrasment. Loyalty works both ways.

    @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

  • andymillington
    Andy Millington (@andymillington) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia My stepson and his partner having real problems getting someone to move the account to new address. Seems like a simple self installation M&T but nobody will help.

    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

    @virginmedia seems to be down nationally. 1: tell us status 2: tell us when back on

  • johnjoeoregan
    JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported from Manchester, England

    @stetopping Remember you did the piece late last year about Virgin Media Broadband being out for a day? It's now been down for six days in some parts of Manchester. Six full days and not a word from the company except automated messages.

    @virginmedia hi, after so many years of being a customer, do you send out new upgrades? My router keeps dipping and going off, been doing it for awhile now, couple of weeks.

  • Miniboom2

    Ah @virginmedia with this up and down service today you are really spoiling us!

  • Lerounxi
    Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

    Phoebe (@TTPhoebe) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone available at @virginmedia please? Your website is shocking for trying to get in touch with customer services / live chat. Thanks

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)

    @virginmedia Not as yet. Just that my postcode seems to be affected when checking service status

  • EdwinDa18453545
    Edwin Daniel (@EdwinDa18453545) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

  • ErHes1997
    Emily (@ErHes1997) reported from Timperley, England

    How can @virginmedia say "yes there's a problem in your area, we expect it to be fixed on Wednesday"... 5 days is a joke when you'll never see that money returned to you for lack of service provided

  • Samuel_J_Mc
    Sam (@Samuel_J_Mc) reported from Timperley, England

    @virginmedia customer service is so ****. They just transfer you round to different departments

  • GoaterBilly
    Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @virginmedia well done, after over 10 years with you, Virgin Media have sunk to the their lowest level of service and support ever. Roll on November and the end of my contract. Appalling, ignorant, clueless, almost as bad as BT.

    Neil Ashton (@NeilAshtonActor) reported from Stockport, England

    @jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.

    @virginmedia I want a call from a manager ASAP as I am sick of all your empty promises and poor customer journey. I've been trying to get this resolved the past 3 weeks!!!

  • Peerabeee
    TB (@Peerabeee) reported

    @virginmedia I can't send direct messages right now; I've shared all the information, I don't understand why you keep asking for DMs. Please cancel my contract immediately due to the service you're failing to provide. @Ofcom #VirginMedia #Ofcom #Broadband

  • geofn3751
    Geoff Naylor (@geofn3751) reported

    @virginmedia intermittent broadband service in our area for the past week, told it will take another week to fix. Want to change service provider but told must pay a penalty for early termination (for a service they are unable to provide?). Great customer service.

    Kerrie Reid (@MrsReidteaches) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 I just want to speak to a real person about my locked account but can't get past the first part of automated phone service 🤬 not impressed. Who can help please?
