    Appalling from @virginmedia today! The whole network in shambles today, no one working from has been able to do anything! Just spent 40 minutes listening to Footlose in their phone queue and as I got to the front, they put the phone on me! Absolute shambles!

    @virginmedia @RichMeader Could the web page be updated with the fix date please so people can plan accordingly?

    @virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones

  • timplumb
    Tim Plumb (@timplumb) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. Yes; “Looks like there’s still an issue with your connection”

  • Ashley_Rhysss
    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • THE_COLSON
    Shasa Colson (@THE_COLSON) reported from Merton, England

    @O2 Hi, I've been going around in circles for weeks. I'm an O2 and Virgin Media customer. I'm supposed to be in a Vilt package but mu data hasn't been doubled on the o2 end. Can this please be sorted asap

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    My connection has been crap for months and the one time it’s fine, everyone else is down #virginmedia

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

    Andy Walker (@educationforum) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia Your customers pay enough to expect 24 hour support. Do better.

  • itsmartamoya
    Marta (@itsmartamoya) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.

  • Deano1969
    Deano (@Deano1969) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia So. Would you like me to provide details of the complaint? My reference number maybe? Somewhere to direct message? Or do I just waste a huge amount of time hanging on the line to get back to where I started?

  • aaronuart
    R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted, called the number, it says there is a known issue in my area and engineers are working on it. Does this take 5 days to fix? I try the status online and it tells me everything is fine but it isn’t. Is there anyone looking at this. I’ve never had an issue last this long

  • AdamHMatthews
    Adam H-Matthews (@AdamHMatthews) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia How does £8.40 a day cover 2 people unable to work for a full day? Still no contact from Virgin engineer or any comment on what the issue is? The time to fix the issue just keeps getting later.

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Really losing my patience with Virgin media now. Down for 8 days been told 3 times it’ll be fixed within 24 hours but won’t send an engineer out

  • befitat50
    Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

  • AntonBrooksAMB
    🔰 Brooks 🔰 (@AntonBrooksAMB) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia No internet since last week, again. Have to wait 6 days for someone to come out and ‘fix’ it again. It’s a shame because you guys really don’t care. Since June my internet has been on and off like this

  • guydorrell1
    Guy Dorrell (@guydorrell1) reported from Wandsworth, England

    So @virginmedia wifi down in SW18 2 for the third time this week. Don’t ask me to check your status dashboard, this happens EVERY week. It’s a constant, systemic issue, please get an engineer to come out & look at local box. Paying £130/month for terrible service, fuming 🤮😡

  • MitchM77
    Mitch Manning 💜💙🦁🇺🇦 (@MitchM77) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @neilpr85 @virginmedia Yes, this! Oh and now O2 have told me I might lose signal over 24hrs as they’re doing some works. So no mobile data for me either! I feel like I’ve jumped in a time machine and have gone back to 1990!! 😫

  • IHTP67
    Anne Davis (@IHTP67) reported

    @Virgin @virginmedia can you please update customers on current outage ongoing for 48hrs. Parents cannot get through due to long wait times. This is an unacceptable situation. Please advise all customers regardless of whether they have been able to report it.

  • JCorbinHus
    J Corbi (@JCorbinHus) reported

    @virginmedia 19hrs + no broadband security system down in a high crime area. This morning I was offered comp £10 by customer service agent as a “goodwill gesture” for inconvenience 🙄

  • leelamalur
    SRao (@leelamalur) reported

    @virginmedia No one to help and besides have charged a penalty for non- payment. Terrible service. Will find a way to get out of the contract.

  • Dave_Syracuse
    Dave (@Dave_Syracuse) reported

    @VirginMedia you're wifi isn't working again. Your say you'll fix it by the 19th of May but that isn't good enough. I pay you for reliable wifi connection every day. I'm not receiving that. This is a formal complaint and I expect to be reimbursed for my stress and inconvenience.

  • pjpar

    @virginmedia Literally switched to sky today as your cs team are crap.

  • RHawkins05

    @virginmedia how do I claim compensation for no TV service now for 2 Days??????

  • Why__OMG__Why
    G HUNTer (@Why__OMG__Why) reported

    @DowndetectorUK found alternative ways of watching ITV1. get a clearer constant picture than Virgin Media. Several sources at zero cost. With the constant problems and ever increasing costs, I don't mind if I get interrupted tv at such an enormous discount.

  • Daveytmartin
    Davey Lad (@Daveytmartin) reported

    @Craighale4 @ArmchairAdml @virginmedia Call them and say you don't want the phone line anymore when your contract is up. They will offer you a deal. Just done it went down from £88 to £48 with Netflix!

    @virginmedia Hi my virgin tv hasn’t worked for 8 hours I’ve rung the number and it says it’s a fault at your end and you’ve got engineers on it. Can I suggest getting new engineers it’s still not working #refundplease
