    @virginmedia I have used that 0800 number. It says there is still a problem and should be fixed by 6 pm tonight. That is what it said yesterday!

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sort of, but I had trouble logging in as it uses an old email address that I no longer use.

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I was supposed to get texts telling me what was going on. Instead I have had to do the chasing. My system is still not working.

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia how long will it take to fix my internet connection. CO1 area. Main problem is a slow speed for emails.

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I am not the only one in my area with a problem. Any idea when it will be resolved.

    @usukgoose @virginmedia Still issues with my system. Worked properly for a few minutes but back on slow .

  • leipperm m (@leipperm) reported from Braintree, England

    It's annoying that @virginmedia customer service refused to acknowledge this other persons details had some how been linked to my email with my bank account on their account.

  • Griggsy1968 Mark Griggs (@Griggsy1968) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia So, 3 phone calls over 50 mins all cut off! All I wanted to do was pay off a handset and upgrade a contract. Customer service 0/10!

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I will try again by unplugging the router etc. However other people living near me are also experiencing problems. It is not just me.

  • QuintonAndy Andy Quinton (@QuintonAndy) reported from Sproughton, England

    @virginmedia what a truly awful service. 3hours to try and sort a confirm username error,..from you! 7 days I’ve waited for you to sort the email out. Numerous calls...and still no one actually listens or cares. I think I’ve explained it to most of your call centre still no help

  • 2FingersRampant 2 Fingers Rampant (@2FingersRampant) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia service completely out at CO2 8QA and local area. Status page says all ok, so can you explain this please. Urgent work priority.

  • Laitty Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported from Colchester, England

    Great time for my internet to go down again. Third time this week @virginmedia #colu

  • robinsontonyLIR be kind and be nice. (@robinsontonyLIR) reported from Colchester, England

    @InTheseHeels Have you tried turning it on and off again? .....OK in all seriousness it happens to me on my LAN . I concluded as I'm on a domestic connection, Virgin Media , I suspect they refresh the network to loose dormant connections periodically and I get booted off for a few secs

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I am using my laptop, tablet and phone. Emails are slow on all machines.

  • Carahaych_ Karma🖤 (@Carahaych_) reported

    @virginmedia how long with the internet be down for in the WS3 area?

  • Donna4Rainhill Cllr Donna Greaves (@Donna4Rainhill) reported

    @virginmedia You've flatly refused to take a report of a fault for an elderly customer who's landline is faulty when somebody else has tried to report it for them you have said "computer says no" Your CSR confirmed "you do not have a dept that deals with vulnerable customers" WOW JUST WOW!

  • SamoEdits Samo Chandler (@SamoEdits) reported

    @geraintthomas @TalkTalk Get Virgin Media fibre. Yes they're more expensive, and don't have great customer service themselves and won't give good deals to keep your business after your contract is up. But I've rarely ever had disconnection problems, the odd area-wide issue. But mostly always reliable.

  • Litadoolan Lita Doolan (@Litadoolan) reported

    @virginmedia Yes still an issue. @richardbranson please advise. #virgin #email #volt

  • SynchroJack88 ✨SynchroJack88 - TL47✨ (@SynchroJack88) reported

    @virginmedia I’m no novice and have worked in technology for over 14 years. I know how to reboot a router etc and it doesn’t solve the issue! Funny how the service deteriorated after the cooling off period ends

  • UBSixT Mia Culpa (@UBSixT) reported

    Further to previous @virginmedia tweet..just got a call back from Glasgow..they had a power outage so call was ended,Lady confirmed 150 call if I press option disconnection will go through to a UK call centre but it can be any of six or can be outsourced no numbers kniown. FARCE!

  • rickiwellman Ricki Wellman (@rickiwellman) reported

    @virginmedia really need to sort out your business broadband services, have had NO internet all morning and have been told a fix will be done around 5/6pm, how am I meant to run a business 🤬

  • peterwells79 Peter Wells (@peterwells79) reported

    @MelHorrocks19 @virginmedia Have you got a good data package in you phone contract? I use my iPhone as a Wi-Fi hot spot when my broadband goes down at work (not Virgin)

  • Donna4Rainhill Cllr Donna Greaves (@Donna4Rainhill) reported

    @virginmedia Furthermore a complaint was made from one virgin customer about the lack of support asking you to test the line for a fault and you incredulously sent a copy of that complaint to... the customer account that you are unable to act upon or test, that is just utter madness Virgin

  • prprivate Peter Rossi (@prprivate) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Media do - I don’t want you to call me from “Twitter” you have my complaint ID, please get someone to review it who has the capacity to resolve it and get them to call me
