    Virgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

  • ladykittymckat
    LadyKitty McKatfacelady (@ladykittymckat) reported from Datchworth, England

    @virginmedia No, they said it would be fixed by 4pm Monday and that they’d ring me. I’ve had no phone call and still getting issues with broadband and TV

  • paulnewbz
    Paul Newby (@paulnewbz) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia my router is showing a message saying update in progress. It’s been like this all day. Service status says the networks being updated but fix by 3pm. Is there a fix? I cannot log in to the router.

    Jesse Bryce (@jesseb4me) reported from Luton, England

    @muppetkeeper @virginmedia @TalkTalk Plus at almost double the speed. No idea why they need to make it so difficult to get a good deal. But for continuity of service, and not having another piece of obsolete hardware lying around, I’ve taken it.

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia It’s coming up to 3 hours wait on WhatsApp on TOP of 3 hours of phone calls. Do your teams compete for the worst service levels @virginmedia ?

  • PhilCampbell_
    Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia No. There never are. I've had issues with this since I'd had it installed.

  • ABeeeABeee
    Abi (@ABeeeABeee) reported from Stotfold, England

    Can honestly say I don’t think I’ve ever received customer service as poorly as I have from @virginmedia this weekend/this morning. Absolutely disgusting 😡😡😡

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia Sorry but the old ‘we don’t have email addresses’ doesn’t work. Everyone does. It’s just company policy not to hand them out. The key issue is that with this level of service, someone should say ‘leave it with us, we’ll look into it and someone will get back to you’ 1/2

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia It’s not specific to me; and to be honest I’m not really bothered. The problem is your marketing 5G phones in areas that don’t have 5G which is affectively mis-selling. Probably something you should look into.

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia I will I don’t know what the problem is it’s nothing we are doing we have reset & unplugged it rebooted it switched off switched it on and everything we can think of just won’t work since about 5 o’clock yesterday

  • Pegnarista
    Carlo (@Pegnarista) reported from Stanstead Abbotts, England

    @virginmedia Been a customer for 10 years, now thinking of leaving as a result of: 1. Remote control for 360 upgrade don't work and despite promises hasn't been fixed. 2. Hours wasted on the phone. 3. Conflicting and incorrect information from Customer Service resulting in above

  • MrsMummypennyUK
    Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported from Knebworth, England

    @virginmedia No an engineer came to my house. He could not fix it. Rebooting will not help. Please read my original tweet.

  • angelstorm13
    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    And it's down again. #virginmedia

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom - can you help with this situation? As you monitor, telecoms companies; Do you think 3-hours worth of phone calls, being cut off 3 times and 80 minutes on WhatsApp (and counting) is good enough service from @virginmedia just to renew a contract ? #virginmedia

  • ladykittymckat
    LadyKitty McKatfacelady (@ladykittymckat) reported from Datchworth, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCC Yes, since the day we signed with Virgin we’ve had our broadband drop out intermittently, I’ve been years trying to rectify it. When it works it’s brilliant, but we seem to go two weeks of good service and a month of intermittent! Call centre said they’ve been aware since June!

    maggie.todd@live.co. (@maggietodd10) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia This problem was reported 11th November 2021. You promised to correct the problem by 18th November.

    Vision Elite Media (@vision_e_media) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia how can you customer service offer me a new contract £25 more than a new customer contract and then try blame the current economical situation?!?! Aren’t we all in the same economical situation new or existing customers?

  • EnriqueGuadiz
    Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    The only good thing these new @virginmedia super hubs are good for is flying out of a window! Dropping internet connection like AH dropping her package on JD’s bed! Fricking awful service!

  • Daymoalexander
    Daymo Alexander (@Daymoalexander) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia I think @YodelOnline needs a good kick up the behind for being super late and not even letting the customer know! Not a great start so far #newcustomer

  • EnriqueGuadiz
    Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is an absolute total **** of a service! Reliable WiFi With the hub 5 bullshit! Should be thrown out of the window! No WiFi /service in HP2!

    Septimus McClonk (@clm2071) reported

    Absolutely appalling service from @virginmedia - haven't sent me the equipment you promised, the equipment you have sent is broken on arrival. And over half an hour waiting on chat and call to speak to someone. Absolute joke

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @virginmedia @ipa1869 Virgin Media fined £28m over 'deliberately dropping calls' and putting people on hold 'for no reason' Customers trying to cancel or switch were routinely put through the wringer by Virgin's customer service agents, an investigation by the regulator has found.

    Pirate (@pirate1100) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media are terrible, I had the phone package removed years ago as they kept billing me for calls I hadn’t made. If you don’t renew broadband contract they charge you extortionate fees. Terrible company.

  • BluemoonAmy
    Amy McManus (@BluemoonAmy) reported

    @virginmedia Had no broadband service since Tuesday evening. Service update showed fix yesterday by 16:07, then today at 16:07 and now tomorrow at 16:07. Totally unacceptable. When will this be sorted. M46.

    Joe Naughton (@JoeNaConnacht) reported

    @mcardle_mi42856 Never even checked Virgin media 3, I’ll make sure to check it next week. Didn’t think they had live sport on there.

    @SkyNews They should be refunding every single Virgin Media customer.

  • dollDCFC
    Dermot O'Leary (@dollDCFC) reported

    @virginmedia @siemaiqbal The only tweets we ever see here about Virgin are those complaining when their service has been interrupted, which is understandable.I wonder though what % of Virgin customers it represents? From personal experience my service has been out a very few times over 20+ years.

  • mabaker_moz
    Elaine Walsh (@mabaker_moz) reported

    @virginmedia I rang your service number and there is an issue in the area

    🇺🇦 Clive Davies #FBPE 🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported

    .@virginmedia So 2 days with no TV, no broadband, no landline and an @o2 mobile with no signal. A fix date of 15th July!!!? Zero means of communication. Totally unreliable. What a dreadful company you are. So pleased you got fined. When will this be fixed?

  • LRNA11
    LaurenA (@LRNA11) reported

    @MartinSLewis Another major issue with Virgin Media (and possibly other similar providers) is that they don’t provide customers an option for “No Roll-on” at the end of the contract. Their reminders are puny and twice I got caught with paying almost double monthly rates after contract. 1/
