  • PauleneCarr PauleneCarr (@PauleneCarr) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph For last 2 months in the SW16 area VIRGIN TV & BROADBAND services has an ‘outage problem.’ Despite several engineer call outs the issue has not been resolved so no access to internet. Virgin please sort out and provide compensation for lack of service

  • johnnieego John Lyons (@johnnieego) reported from Hackney, England

    Hey @virginmedia, I'm only grudgingly a customer because we can't have a dish here. I certainly don't want to switch to your mobile. How about saving a tree or two and not sending me brochures all the bloody time. Ta.

  • Murvalous1 Tom (@Murvalous1) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia At least twice a month it has issues, now waiting 2 days for a network engineer, it's just overall down too often to rely on.

  • nabenza Ruth Brookarsh (@nabenza) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I’m not business customer

  • AbFitNutrition Veronica Mitchell RD (@AbFitNutrition) reported from Richmond, England

    It’s so annoying how broadband cos try 2 screw existing customers. They suck u in with an offer better than their competitors, then each yr, they increase the price, but offers small reduction if you u stay with reduced service #VirginMedia

  • jimiinc James Enck (@jimiinc) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I wasn't complaining at all, just commenting on how Virgin is on top of its game. My broadband was only down for half an hour, no dramas. And your field tech was very friendly and helpful in explaining what was going on. All good here.

  • mattsray Matt Ray (@mattsray) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia after 5 years of poor service finally call up to leave and I am kept on hold for 33mins and counting. It’s akin to hiding behind the curtains pretending not to be home!

  • nabenza Ruth Brookarsh (@nabenza) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph we are a residential care home supporting vulnerable adults. We have been without a phone line since 26 June. Fix date of 15 July is too far away. Please divert my line

  • JonMarkDeane Jon Mark Deane (@JonMarkDeane) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Broadband is down. Box is showing solid green base light, solid green WiFi light and a flashing green internet light. Reboot, lower cycling, full disconnection and reconnection achieves nothing. TV service fine (sans network features).

  • chriswoods84 Woodsy (@chriswoods84) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia @ChalfontStRob Not sure about Robert but I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app. It still isn't working. There's no response at all when you press sign in after entering username and password

  • sinajtojayz Janis Sinaj (PISCES) (@sinajtojayz) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Di I get refunded for the days I have no WiFi internet or tv service ... Sky is offering me a better deal and I’ve accepted contract with virgin media has run its course

  • ukwip Anthony Cohen (@ukwip) reported from London, England

  • northern_puddin Jason Hartley (@northern_puddin) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks I checked earlier but it says no known issues. I also checked the guide for the lights on the front and it’s a connection problem / constant software download as it’s flashing green. Works for 5 mins then reboots and spends ages all flashing green again. 3 hours now.
