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

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Honestly I'd rather not as we have called so many times and get different call centres. Get cut off and can never speak to the otmriginal care team. Please can someone call us considering this is part of our compliant

  • brighton_gay Christian 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 🖖🏼 (@brighton_gay) reported from Sompting, England

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

  • etinton Elliot Tinton (@etinton) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    .@virginmedia so how do I get in touch, speak to someone, get issues resolved?? No response anywhere.

  • Angelsirius1 Angel sirius (@Angelsirius1) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Hi, i am having some issues with the youtube app, i spoke to youtube they said to try uninstalling reinstalling the app, something i am unable to do as you provide this. It will just not load a video or whilst a playlist is playing it goes black.

  • MarkCherrie Mark Cherrie (@MarkCherrie) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    So far I’ve had three promised appointments from @virginmedia but sadly three no shows. We’ve had intermittent broadband for about 6 months now and just can’t seem to get the problem fixed.

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Did you read the message, I don't want to call or use whats app ad uve spent far too long doing this already. So I'll have to complain in writing then it seems. Shocking service yet again you do not read whta a customer is saying.

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

    @virginmedia Been reaching out for 6hrs on your app and still not resolved a basic problem @TradeStandards

  • palewis1 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.

  • alternativeage Alternative Ageing (@alternativeage) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @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. 🥲

  • 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??

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

    @virginmedia why would my Virgin internet go down at about 0045 every night ?

  • 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

  • etinton Elliot Tinton (@etinton) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’d just like to cancel now please. Is there someone I can speak to to arrange?

  • michelle83mj Michelle83mj (@michelle83mj) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia This link doesn't work

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

    @virginmedia It's fine I am going to cancel my contract as the offer to retain is disgraceful when compared to offer from others

  • sara_saehasti Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia With all due respect I can't face another encounter via the phone or WhatsApp, far too time consuming. Could you provide me with an actual complaints email address as the online submission doesn't work

  • MarkCherrie Mark Cherrie (@MarkCherrie) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Andy has now told me that the work was never rescheduled for today. This really isn’t very good.

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

    @virginmedia No it was the ‘general area fix’ (my engineer was cancelled by Virgin) which was then followed up with an email that said ‘everything is sorted’ which it was, until today when it was in and out again for hours. It’s ok now, but for how long?

  • 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!

  • ScasianSmc1999 smc1999 (@ScasianSmc1999) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I have emailed your heads of customer experience having found out their email addresses. Honestly shocked at how poor the customer service from virgin media seems to bet getting / I didn’t think it could get any worse but a good award for consistency on poor service

  • missdanaher Kerry Butcher (@missdanaher) reported

    @virginmedia can somebody please contact me regarding our service being down.

  • high__Climb christopher coleman (@high__Climb) reported

    @virginmedia It literally says on the page in my account 48 hours. Instead of actually getting one of your colleagues to call me, following such a serious situation, you would prefer to prove a point? You haven’t even asked me what I need yet. Or how you can help. 15 years a customer and this

  • WiniBoansi Wini Boansi (@WiniBoansi) reported

    @virginmedia your bb has been absolutely abysmal for ages. It keeps saying “weak security” and dips in and out. I’ve had this issue SINCE MARCH. Every time there’s an excuse, but no resolution. HELP!!!!!!!!

  • JollyCauli Ashley Collier✍🟨🟥 (@JollyCauli) reported

    @virginmedia Not a problem, no frustration at all as I understand these things happen. Left it an hour and called again and managed to get through. 👍

  • cyberbeautiful lauren. ♡ (@cyberbeautiful) reported

    Virgin media is so ****. 🖕🏼

  • ScasianSmc1999 smc1999 (@ScasianSmc1999) reported

    @virginmedia Hi really annoyed by your customer resolutions team who say they have called me when they haven’t - I have also make a subject access request under GDPR which they have not fulfilled and ignore ! How incompetent is your customer service ?

  • niblick_iii Confidently Paranoid (@niblick_iii) reported

    @gingerhobbit There was a day last year where Virgin Media went down for like the whole of Cambridgeshire, so half the team couldn't connect, including me. I made sure my boss knew the sitch then got on with some housework till it was done.

  • WeeYin74529733 Wee_Yin (@WeeYin74529733) reported

    @virginmedia ive cancelled service a couple of weeks now and not had our package arrive to send back router to yourselves.
