    @virginmedia When are you going to refund me for many days without a wifi signal

  • RuthTongueBites Ruth Tongue (@RuthTongueBites) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes it has thanks but could I have an email address for customer care/complaints pls?

  • spookyjulie Sarah Elizabeth Cox (@spookyjulie) reported from London, England

    @CateSevilla @virginmedia They then tried to fine me for not sending their 'hub' back and refused to refund the house move cost I'd paid a few months earlier. So so incompetent! SO stressful when all of us work from home too. I moved to TalkTalk & is cheaper and no problems so far, at least :)

  • turboeddie08 Eddie Seber (@turboeddie08) reported from London, England

    Virgin TV GO app down @virginmedia

  • nixearle Nicola Slyper (@nixearle) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to get a response from your live chat. I sent a message at 9:38 this morning. I got a response at 13:00 but the person seems to have disappeared as now I’m not getting any response. I just need old bills from Mar-Jul19. Please help?

  • ShelleyFacius Shelley (Facius) Stuart (@ShelleyFacius) reported from London, England

    Anyone else have no broadband since yesterday due to a @virginmedia outage? This is the third time since April!! My neighbours and I seriously debating move back to Sky #virginmedia get it right

  • CalfosDrive Papa J (@CalfosDrive) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I need a new sim sent to my new address. Haven’t been able to speak to anyone and have no service on my phone. Can someone get back to me.

  • scottdb79 Scott (@scottdb79) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia WiFi down yet again in SE6, what’s going on, can your servers not cope with temperatures above 30c! I think it’s time to stop using the #stayconnected tag line, it’s not doing you any favours. Some of us have to work to do and deadlines to meet.

  • TimLundSE26 Tim Lund (@TimLundSE26) reported from London, England

    @AnyaMartin8 @virginmedia You've never been a @TalkTalk customer?

  • Tiger118118 Thomas Hapgood (@Tiger118118) reported from Basildon, England

    **** you @virginmedia I want my money back please 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • gorgeousuk A҈n҈n҈a҈b҈e҈l҈l҈e҈ H҈i҈l҈l҈ (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    Disastrous service from @virginmedia every single day in SE6 area. On off on off all day long. On most expensive tariff. Joke

  • SimonBucks Simon Bucks (@SimonBucks) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It was down for the whole of yesterday. Came back eventually in the evening but too late for my working day. Please can you tell us what the problem was. The service is really flaky and for the price you charge I would expect 99.9% reliability.

  • DjOoooosch CK|Fitness (@DjOoooosch) reported from Braintree, England

    @virginmedia How is it I can buy a new mobile phone from you yet I can’t speak to anyone about my current phone? Shocking and **** Customer care.

  • maharrison Mark Harrison (@maharrison) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia Ok so I need to arrange another visit I won’t be contacted? Can you see how bad this looks? Now I’ll be in London I need to arrange someone to be there to let an engineer in unless there is a smaller window

  • Tai_Aro Tai Aro (@Tai_Aro) reported from London, England

    Hey @virginmedia @VirginMediaCC I’ve not had #broadband connection for a day now. The usual fixes are not working, tried calling customer service but no answer. Please help!

  • chadoneit Charlie Done It. (@chadoneit) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I finally got through to a girl called Chloe. She was very argumentative and seemed to cut me off at the end so none the wiser. How do I go about making a complaint?

  • MRDannyLawrence Danny-lawrence-BEM-BCAc (@MRDannyLawrence) reported from Billericay, England

    @virginmedia me19 postcode broadband down please advise

  • CalfosDrive Papa J (@CalfosDrive) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my mobile contract. How do I do this?

  • DjOoooosch CK|Fitness (@DjOoooosch) reported from Braintree, England

    @virginmedia Please don’t conveniently close the live chat because you cut my phone and you’re having massive issues. The phone is my business phone and you are now liable for any missed work. Sort it out, shocking service.

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I had a letter saying work was being done on 26th August and may effect broadband but since then the internet keeps going down intermittently throughout day ? No issues listed online can you check if work still being done as I am wfh post code SE39lr

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Dover, England

    @zoebartlett Funny how @virginmedia say they have no access to accounts over social media yet yesterday I dealt with my issue finally over the same social media platform. They contradict themselves time after time.

  • pompeyhedge ed francis (@pompeyhedge) reported

    @TalkTalk It's been ongoing, every single day disconnects. Have tried to sort it with you before and nothing changes. Line even shows a problem, but nothing is done. You're worse than Virgin Media

  • 7pudinis 7pudinis (@7pudinis) reported

    @virginmedia 0.38mbps download speed right now when I'm paying for M350 Fibre Broadband. No amount of resetting/switching hub off helps. Been disconnecting continuously for the last week and I've had enough!! COLCHESTER, CO2 area. No issues showing on the My Status page. Bull.

  • Natalie_dunbar Natalie Dunbar (@Natalie_dunbar) reported

    @virginmedia still waiting for a response to us letting you know that your junction box on Woodhurst Lane RH8 sounds as though it may take off any minute and is so loud, it is keeping our kids up at night! Please Help! #oxted

  • henpix Henry (@henpix) reported

    @virginmedia Now in April I have to pay £ 102.90 of my bill without even having used the service, a bad service that VirginMedia provides, I have filed a claim and they don't even answer

  • BirdiOnBoundary Joti Birdi (@BirdiOnBoundary) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks but changing the router twice in a year. And constantly being told to reboot it is a pain. Got the service back later. But constant interruptions are frustrating.
