  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia The quality of customer service cannot be recommended. The long delays are a constant problem Coming up to 2 hours this morning and no response

  • hodgie_hd Alan Hodge (@hodgie_hd) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia down again in SW18 what on earth are we paying for and all your site can say is area problems as usual it really is pathetic #tradingstandards #virgindown

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia another night not being able to use the platforms I pay for due to crappy service from yourselves

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still haven’t passed security. That’s some service

  • strutcakes Chris 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, England

    Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginhelp @MistryMistry21 @virginmedia Virgin Media give really poor customer service. I’ve been waiting over 14 hours? It feels like your customer service team is a team of 1

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Croxley Green, England

    @virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.

  • MiaZagica Baltazarka (@MiaZagica) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

  • kmirandalondon carlos miranda 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 no🌍b 🕷 (@kmirandalondon) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia @NatGeoUK "We hope to fix this by 25 January at 16:00" But what's this? Do you really imagine a world where people don't have to work and can stand all your frequent service disruption? #daylight_robbery

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem impacting broadband in wd17? Services dropped suddenly at around 1:30-1:45pm today.

  • kmirandalondon carlos miranda 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 no🌍b 🕷 (@kmirandalondon) reported from Tottenham, England

  • Keldavey hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?

  • tomaszrykala Tomasz Rykała (@tomaszrykala) reported from London, England

    Wow @virginmedia is having a complete meltdown in my area and their automated service is telling me that this "short" interruption to my internet services should be resolved at 10 am tomorrow. That's 14 hours from now! What if my work depended on it?

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I would not have used these terms as I didn’t know them however I presumed that all the necessary work would be done in the background. Why would I keep the landline with Virgin when I was VERY UNHAPPY with the service provided

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I cancelled my broadband subscription in October and Virgin have kept charging me for landline although other provider inform me that they are providing service I just want to close the Virgin account

  • BBLn15 Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Please as I have been paying for service

    @virginmedia My Internet keeps dropping out. Every time it does I have to reconnect all my tech. I don't know why I'm paying so much for such bad service. So frustrating!

  • PresBastards Denis (@PresBastards) reported

    @virginmedia Just to to wait 5 working days. Which means next Friday. Which means I can't login to work for a week. Which obviously has ramifications. It's a joke.

  • nadworks Nadja von Massow 💚🌎 #FBPE (@nadworks) reported

    @rchatley @virginmedia Yes, there’s an issue. But no idea why they don’t bother updating this on their website.

  • Richardw9427 Richard Williams (@Richardw9427) reported

    @virginmedia It says by the 14th - 2 days from now. That seems like an awful long time to wait, and a long time for people to be burning through mobile data (if they can afford it). If there's any way it can be flagged as urgent that would be appreciated. Seems like the whole area is down

  • kkmusic Kevin Kerrigan (@kkmusic) reported

    @virginmedia it is not this line it is the area 15. this happens every single time and always told to run line test which it never is. it is area 15 fault. ongoing ... please report

  • mattjohnharris Matthew Harris (@mattjohnharris) reported

    @virginmedia your compensation model is so bad! We have had over 32 hours of down time in our town this week over 3 days. Everyone has been cramming into coffee shops and restaurants that use BT.
