    @virginmedia 20 hours of being passed around your customer ‘care’ teams and no progress. And yet I doubt this is even close to a record.

    @virginmedia 11 May - which of course i will cancel today as I’ve had enough of this. too much stress and no TV or internet for 30 days

    Alex (@ameehan71) reported from Bromley, England

    @_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.

    @virginmedia shocking service with the internet

    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 So someone fraudulently set up an account in my name. Because I don’t know the password to something I didn’t set up I’ve now spent 5 hours on the phone to 5 different @virginmedia reps and a debt recovery letter. Never use @virginmedia #badcustomerservice #stress

  • rtkosha
    radz (@rtkosha) reported from Stratford, England

    virgin media was asking for my customer’s card details over the phone which i found suspicious but he goes to me “i ain’t got anything in the bank for them to nick anyway hahaha” 😭😭😭

    Robert Harrison (@ieattothebeat) reported from Lambeth, England

    @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

    @virginmedia Will this issue be resolved today

  • Champion3Claire
    Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??

  • leighbooker

    @virginmedia Please explain why your Virgin checker site was down too. Disgraceful

  • hillmandan
    Daniel Hillman (@hillmandan) reported from Bromley, England

    Got to be the worse customer service in the world @virginmedia . No services for 3 days because your sub contractors cut through the cable and still no light at the end of the tunnel #fuming 😡

  • gendal
    Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.

  • 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.

  • nathantalbot
    Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported from City of London, England

    (Testing) colleague asked if is there a virgin media outage but it’s working fine in EC1A.

  • Mabs79
    Mabs Ahmed (@Mabs79) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia we have had on off outage since last night. The current service status states there are no issues in our area. Our broadband has been down since around 3pm? SE5 postcode

  • MrCADwiz
    Everest, Sam (@MrCADwiz) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia for some reason Channel 4 and BBC 2 are not working one 1 of our boxes the other box they work fine. Any ideas?

  • edshots
    the world's most copied Edward Moore (@edshots) reported from Bromley, England

    @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.

  • BowTieMendoza
    VM (@BowTieMendoza) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia After 4 months of saying street works on going just got call from @virginmedia construction team that my building is not serviceable and not able to provide service how is this even allowed #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

    @virginmedia Thanks so much. Who should I ask for?! Current promise via Chat is a chq within 30 days. The problem with contacting Virgin Media by phone or online when you are a former customer chasing a refund is that it is difficult to get past your security checking if it's an old a/c.

  • SenosLIVE
    Seno (@SenosLIVE) reported

    @virginmedia please get your **** together, 3rd day in a row internet goes down at 9pm with no solution to the problem other than check back in 24hours. I’m paying £40 a month not for this. Soon it’s gonna be time to switch providers

  • AaronHardy1994

    Anyone having problems with @virginmedia internet. It's been dropping off and on for a few days, now it's gone off Newcastle East.

  • 20Madders
    LouLouTwo.Oh (@20Madders) reported

    @virginmedia well done virgin media… you’ve been faffing about with a broadband and tv issue for the last week. Was supposed to be fixed by yesterday, now it says it’ll be the 7th. In the mean time we’ve got no broadband or tv in long intermittent blocks all day. 👎🏼

  • JamesRustles4
    Mr. Gringx 🔩 (@JamesRustles4) reported

    @JONEZZEEonMMA @GameRiot Having been with virgin media previously, Id have killed to have my internet only be down for four hours. I remember one summer we only HAD internet for 4 hours. Shocking service.

  • jamespdrury
    James Drury (@jamespdrury) reported

    Considering Virgin Media broadband but don't want a Hub 5? If you're in a VM full fibre area, GiffGaff broadband comes with an Eero 6+ and 900Mb (UP & DOWN) is just £32 per month, no mid contract increases. Use own router for upto 1.2Gb. Use referral code K0DEJXGV for £50 credit.

    Carol-Ann Sihra (@Csihra) reported

    @virginmedia Open a complaint which doesn’t get replied too. Phone calls promising a follow up call which doesn’t happen. Terrible customer service
