    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Oh, they did let me cancel, but I had to answer about 3 “last question”s before they proceeded 5 minute response time on chat, took me nearly two hours, after the 4 hours it took to connect an agent. We could get a contract with a credit check in 5 minutes.

    @virginmedia Customer services are unexperienced and not read to help also. They keep repeating same things

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @atnori_ @virginmedia Yep, experienced just recently :D I am an extremely patient person… I properly lost it today 🙃 At least the damn thing is cancelled though.

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

    @virginmedia Sometimes the page loads and others not, but when it did it said that there’s a known issue. It has been 4 days now without proper internet?!

    @virginmedia is there a fault in the SW20 area? No internet since last night and your service checker is not working either.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia !this four days in a row now, with Broadband down most of day, down again! Apparently same for neighbour.when will it be fixed! ?

  • 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

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia this is getting ridiculous now! What’s happening with your service again today!!! Trying to watch on @BBCiPlayer and it buffers every 30 seconds!! Can’t watch anything and accessing websites including your own is so painful #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • safctinders
    Tinders (@safctinders) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia Abysmal service. Pay a premium for this stuff and nothing but aggro; TV freezes, ages to boot up… been sat here 20 minutes and still “starting up”. **** show.

  • GaborPfalzer
    Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

  • nicktippett
    Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, DAY 5 without Internet connection here and I haven’t received any update from you. Can you PLEASE make some clarity on what is going on and when we can expect this to be fixed? Surely you should have sent a technician to check on us by now… Absolutely awful.

  • GabrielaLungu
    Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Yes, they are known issues; but they haven’t been fixed in over a month! Every day the message keeps changing. Thursday the promise is to have things fixed by Friday, Friday it moves to Monday aso… It’s been like this for a month 🤯 We work from home; we need decent broadband.

  • Shaun1799

    @virginmedia having problems with my wifi would you help me out

  • 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

  • willbassoumba
    William (@willbassoumba) reported from Camberwell, England

    Virgin media is down and I actually have to talk to my family… yuck.

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia No, no one has ever used my email to login on your forums. In the meantime it’s DAY 6 with no Internet service, good job Virgin in supporting us fixing this 👍🏼

  • ravinrr80
    Ravin 🇹🇹🇬🇧 (@ravinrr80) reported from Merton, England

    Hey @virginmedia I already am paying more with this new package I was forced to take to renew my contract recently and now you want to force me to pay £7 MORE a month?! Also why can I not get a human on the phone?! I refuse to pay a penny more. Fix this nonsense.

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, it’s past 12pm and we’re still without any Internet connection (and getting desperate now). I’d like to stress that this isn’t an intermittent signal issue but a total loss of service as we’ve been having no Internet connection AT ALL since last Friday. HELP PLEASE!

    @virginmedia once again internet down! Online checker says area ok! What a load of rubbish funny how all my neighbours are down as well.

  • vickiferris
    Vicky Leigh (@vickiferris) reported

    I call customer services and then told oh they do 360 boxes for existing customers but if it worked OK then the box was fine. However the email says the boz will work and look OK until it doesn't so I ask for a replacement or engineer to check it (4) @virginmedia

    Elliott (@asher_pr1nce) reported

    @virginmedia my app says we're out of contract, I have tried 4 times to renew it with the same package, for cheaper and it says I'd get a email but, I've never received one. With my bill at £115+ now, I want this sorted otherwise I will shop around for better options.
