    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

    @virginmedia again really???? I just signed up to a flipping contract and broadband goes down again! Worst mistake. Should have went with another provider. My Plex and my security system is down. Thanks for nothing virgin. 🤬🤬🤬

    @CameronYardeJnr @virginmedia Apparently it’s a scam. The problem is the company’s actual call centres are so dreadful it’s almost impossible to tell the difference

  • catt_hurman
    Catt Hurman (@catt_hurman) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia you owe me £241.47 in compensation for 45 days without internet service since the start on my contract (22nd July) and the 3 missed engineer appointments. I will be chasing this through @Ofcom. When Will you start providing the service you’re contracted to?

    @virginmedia I don’t need to check it you guys have to check not me ! This horrible internet has been playing up for sometime and again today!!! All I want t know is when are you going to fix it?

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

    @virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently

  • JaneCommon
    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

  • joshuamasters_
    Joshua Masters🎥 (@joshuamasters_) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia hub still down in SW8 region. Box and hub are on. Ran tests everything fine. Can see WiFi to connect to, but not devices can connect. This started after last nights midnight update it seems.

    @virginmedia And as you can see from my screenshot I’m not zoomed in at all , that pic is the exact same size as your service shows me

  • Tuffcub
    Tuffcub (@Tuffcub) reported from Lambeth, England

    Had many years of perfect service from @virginmedia broadband but its now dropping off about once a week. Very annoying.

  • 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.

  • AdamJT99
    Adam Thomas (@AdamJT99) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Yes. But that didnt stop you charging me for a full month even though i didn't have service for a full month. Your customer service is appalling, I've complained for years and you make no change or comoensation. You don't care one iota for your customers.

    Vincenzo Rampulla (@vmrampulla) reported from Poplar, England

    @petercardwell @MichaelLCrick @virginmedia Did they hang up because they thought it was a spam call?

  • mobiusb2
    Baz, Wacky worm! (@mobiusb2) reported from Lambeth, England

    Oh great Broadband broken! , and now got to wait in for Virgin media to fix it tommorow afternoon. Probably punishment for not watching the funeral.

    holy **** @virginmedia fix up mannnn how you disconnecting when I’m in a ranked match on @PlayOverwatch ???

  • edshots

    @virginmedia The next slot was 28th April which I would not be in and so have taken 5th May. A loyal customer of about 12 years this a complete let down after arranging today from a previous cancellation on your company's part.

    @virginmedia shocking service with the internet

    Mr. Whizz (@wysiwyg100) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia as usual I’m afraid your comedic bad wifi has translated into a comedy of errors for me to cancel my contract.. pls can someone get in touch

  • 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

    @DaveRutt2 @virginmedia I've just cancelled my home move request as they gave me a new 2 year contract (which I was never told about) that doubles in price after a year. This is my first time moving, been with virgin for almost 18 years. They won't be getting installed at my new home

  • PaddySw99745534
    Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported

    @virginmedia @hockeybee Taking too long to sort this issue. Listen to your Technician who said a new Box is required. I may be 82 but you will not come out of this good. Paddy Sweeney

    @virginmedia I’ve had no WiFi for 2 days you’re now saying it’s gonna take until Friday to fix

    Im sick to death of your Internet dropping out EVERY DAMN DAY!!! Heres my number (check your DMs),can someone phone me ASAP to discuss compensation and termination of my contract!!! @virginmedia

    @virginmedia @IAndyHwk I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • Keeleyeveline_
    Keeley 🌻 (@Keeleyeveline_) reported

    @teenarani @virginmedia Hopefully it gets back up and running ASAP. Went to go onto my laptop and couldn't connect to the Internet that's the only reason I new it was down otherwise I wouldn't have

    Quick update following my post - I did have a DM discussion with VirginMedia. Apparently all refunds are process via cheque payments and posted to you - and I’ve got to wait up to 45 days - yes 45 days for the cheque. If I’ve not received it by then I’ve got to contact them again and they will investigate why - probably waiting another 45 days. This is disgusting behaviour @virginmedia, despite it being so called company policy. You took £1,070 from our account despite assurance the equipment return date had been extended, causing us to be overdrawn, yet you now hang on to our money for up to 45 days! It doesn’t take 45 days for a computer to print a cheque!
