    Phil (@palewis1) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia what a useless company after waiting a week from doing as was asked of you on reporting my fathers death I receive a letter telling me I done it wrong. I’m afraid I lost it on the phone today and when all is sorted we will be leaving you. Great bereavement service.

  • AnneWebb777
    Anne Webb (@AnneWebb777) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Tried it several times - it says there are no issues. Our phone can’t ring out, constant sound of a message being there (intermittent beep) but nothing happens when trying to use it. People can’t hear us when we answer. Bought brand new phones and still the same.

  • beadyface
    Keri Kennedy (@beadyface) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia It didn’t work, box was reset, tried to use online help, still not working.

    @FuriousCoops It’s a major BT Open Reach outage which many non-Virgin Media companies piggyback their connectivity through.

  • wavell_mark
    Junior (@wavell_mark) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia how come after nearly 3 days is my internet not working?? How do I claim compensation for this??

    @virginmedia Yep it’s still bad. Sometimes ok, a lot of the time not. Can someone look into it for me please.

    @virginmedia Issue says it should have been dealt with by 03:30 am ...... any update would be appreciated

  • rhock1979
    richard hocking (@rhock1979) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia How can we get money back from this issue or will you credit all the customers who got virgin tv etc due to what happened

  • 5waysRichard
    Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Yes it seems to be ok, but I don’t understand why it would be going down every day between midnight and 1am

  • alternativeage
    Alternative Ageing (@alternativeage) reported from Saltdean, England

    @virginmedia Please sort out issues in my area: BN28AE. Outage over the weekend, yesterday and now again. I can’t work! I’ve just got another contract with you for faster wifi but what’s the point! You were improving issues in this area last week but it’s been worse ever since!

  • mejones2121
    Michael Jones (@mejones2121) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia Absolute rubbish. I pay a premium for super fast broadband and it buffers during Streaming plus I've had no internet or phone line all day YET AGAIN. #internet #broadband #poor service

  • sami_chanchan
    Sami Channon (@sami_chanchan) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom @TradeStandards just called to try & cancel my plan as I have just been evicted. you don’t supply my new flat but want to charge me £250, your agent was so rude and refused to transfer me to a manager. Thanks for making a hard time worse!

  • mattiem1976
    Matt (@mattiem1976) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia getting 17gb download speed on 100gb service ??? Surely this isn't correct I should of stated with sky

  • FragileCreature
    Fragile Creatures (@FragileCreature) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    I've been waiting 2+ hours for a response over WhatsApp from @virginmedia 3 hours since first trying to reach them with Broadband down. Can't work, starting to think they just don't employ any staff. Second time I've had negligent service from them. Looking elsewhere asap.

  • dizzymabil
    ydnam (@dizzymabil) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia Seems its all over the area. Dozens of posts on local SM pages, people without service since late last night. Can't wait to change providers, to a company that actually supply what I pay for

  • indiointernet
    Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia getting somewhat irked at the constant failure in the delivery of your services. And please don't apologise, it won't fix the broadband issue. You are now costing me money. This is not ideal. It's time for me to find a company that can deliver reliable broadband.

  • Sacto_King_UK
    Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Yes I am, we’ve had the pre pull of the cables completed this morning, and are ready for the installation. We’ve not received any box, or anything through the post yet My Complaint Ref: ic-191222-237

  • GrassHoppus
    Ellie Cole 🐆 (@GrassHoppus) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia how can you charge a disconnection fee for a service I never renewed and disconnected the day my contract ended? Absolutely ridiculous and I'm still being charged for the contract I never renewed!

  • dianepatching
    Diane Patching (@dianepatching) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Can you please advise when I can watch Paramount + through VM? I ring and liaise with your advisors through “Chat” and get told it’s on channel 150. Well it isn’t. No where can I find this channel. No one can offer me any help as to where this channel is located.

    Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia Needless to say neither of us have ever seen the £50. I had terrible broadband from them for many years and don't know why I was foolish enough to go back.

  • bigoltiddies
    Tigol (@bigoltiddies) reported

    @JU51LNS @TalkTalk It was never YOUR email, it belonged to TalkTalk and they simply rented it to you as a perk of being subscribed to their service. You've cancelled or are cancelling so they're no longer giving you a free email and instead asking you to pay. BT does/did the same. As did/does Sky. Virginmedia just straight delete the email address after 90 days. You're making a deal out of nothing. Pay the fiver a month and use the time to port out valuable emails by forwarding them to your other email then when you're confident you've got it all transferred, cancel the payment.

    CymroGlyn 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏉🍾♿️ (@cymroglyn) reported

    @virginmedia You should be keeping an eye out for this sort of criminal activity, creates profiles for most large UK companies so they can reply to any complaints and get the customer to download software so they can compensation…and rob them. Report them to X

  • BenChubb4
    Ben C (@BenChubb4) reported

    @virginmedia Ive now been told that to get my ticket number, they will need to raise a new ticket further delaying the original problem resolution date. That cannot be true and doesn’t work like that in other organisations who use tickets and escalation points through a CRM system

  • sanowano_

    @virginmedia please I’m just trying to catch up on my shows. Fix the internet in E2 London PLEASE.

  • SusanChew5
    Susan Chew (@SusanChew5) reported

    @virginmedia It's constant disruption, I did all that , postcode, house number, nothing wrong in the area, spoke to Bot, said there was an outage in my area, who's right?

  • DjmarkieT
    mancs boi (@DjmarkieT) reported

    I will be calling virgin media to leave tomorrow and give notice I still have 20 months left on the contract but u won’t get a penny for your horrific service **** u @virginmedia let it be a lesson when u get **** all!

  • Oldbloke74
    Oldbloke (@Oldbloke74) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia You cold always telephone their useful call centre 🤡 Virgin Media are such a lousy company to deal with - trouble is the competitors are also terrible. 😤

  • Tesz
    Therese (@Tesz) reported

    @virginmedia your services including your chat and your agents are hopeless. Please can I have an email address for a formal complaint about repeated loss of service

  • mantonl
    Lee Manton (Λη Μαντον) (@mantonl) reported

    @tina0402x @SkyUK VirginMedia are good when you’re a new customer, I’ve been with them since they took over NTL but once your contract is up, that’s when it turns into a nightmare. They don’t give a toss about existing customers. Every renewal is a fight & their offshore teams are useless.
