    @virginmedia It’s happening way to regularly. I’ve lost a whole days work up to now, do I get compensation? Spent an hour yesterday morning sorting out yet more issues as a result of the outage over the w/e. 🥲

  • 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.

    @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!

    @virginmedia It shouldn't of happened in first place really disappointed in this as I have been a customer over 25 years

    Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Hi, we had an engineer around Saturday but it’s not really made much difference. It’s still intermittently dropping out and pretty slow too. What do you suggest to correct this?

  • tommyp2222

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

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

    @virginmedia With all due respect, saying sorry doesn’t sort anything. I’d much rather you offered some help If I treated a ‘Customer’ in my workplace the same way Virgin Media have treated my family, I’d almost certainly lose my job. The customer service continues to be appalling

  • 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

  • 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

    @ElliePeace01 @virginmedia I went via complaints department bin the end via email complete paper trail they couldn't get out of it then, virgin media are notoriously bad customer service.

    Hi @virginmedia any news on why our broadband and TV haven't worked since 7pm yesterday in Burgess Hill? No comms and status update just says you are aware with an expected fix moving on in time...

  • SimonRusbridge
    Simon Rusbridge (@SimonRusbridge) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia tv and WiFi down in BN14?

  • melon_h
    Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia But why do we have to keep looking for information. Is there no way of updating the customer directly, it is appalling customer communication. What is the problem? Why just keep putting estimates? If it isn't going to be fixed for 48 hours tell us.

  • scotthortop
    Scott Hortop (@scotthortop) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia All your cable services are down right now, but can you explain why I can't access the programs recorded on the hard drive my virgin box? That makes no sense...

  • INEya_veganfood
    RJ Buddha (@INEya_veganfood) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia crisis with 50%+ increase in monthly costs for no reason. No increase in service, no additional benefits - nothing! Then an horrendous contact centre service.

    1/4 Customer scam alert: When moving and contacting @virginmedia to transfer your services to your new property, if they cannot provide services there they will apply an early disconnection charge which they will state is in accordance with their Legal Stuff, do not accept this.

    @weyland76 @virginmedia They 100% need to invest in the air conditioning at the exchanges, as soon as it gets hot outside the internet goes down literally every day

  • MrBenGrant
    Ben Grant (@MrBenGrant) reported

    @virginmedia we are so done with you when our contract ends, barely a month goes by with outages and reliability issues! £73 a month you would expect top speeds and super reliability. Sadly not.

  • RevQntmBigfoot
    THE Rev. Quantum Bigfoot ♿️ #FLTG OG Anti-RGB OAP (@RevQntmBigfoot) reported

    Looks like Virgin Media/O2 have had a security breach or someone from within the company is selling customer information Just had several attempts to access my O2 account (using address that has only been used/given to O2) & a load of SPAM to same address Roll on November⏳

    Gold (@MoonwalkOnGold) reported

    But then again I saw a news report about @virginmedia customers this past week so I'm not surprised @VirginAtlantic is just as bad. Terrible!

  • BazingaSmth
    BZSM1TH (@BazingaSmth) reported

    @virginmedia So ALL servicea are currently down in CT17 (TV, Fiber , and phone) They have been down since 1500hrs on July 13th. Not expected back up and running until 1300hrs on 14th July. This is not acceptable. You really are totally inept

    @CCFCGrapes @virginmedia They're a bunch of See You Next Tuesdays and I'm going to be leaving them soon. The way they rack the prices up is immoral and the supposed service they provide is non-existent.

  • SRIPRAKASH76
    Dr Prakash Nayak (@SRIPRAKASH76) reported

    @virginmedia If you want to buy something VM people will try to sell you something they want to sell. Is this called customer support?

  • Howard1963OT
    Howard Borrington (@Howard1963OT) reported

    @JasonAlderwick @richardbranson Confusing though it is Jason, Richard Branson has never owned Virgin Media. He held a minority stake of roughly 10% and licensed the Virgin brand name to the business until the company was bought out by Liberty Global in 2013.
