  • volley_design Volley Design (@volley_design) reported from Trowbridge, England

    Anyone else’s @virginmedia down in #Wiltshire? Has been disconnected for past hour... can’t re boot or anything

  • JonHackett Jon Hackett (@JonHackett) reported from Steeple Ashton, England

    @virginmedia .... continue.... So you are not fulfilling your obligation! To ask them to pay for boosters to rectify YOUR problem is not acceptable! Sort it out Virgin Media and don’t take advantage of students! Please show some empathy!

  • SamOsbiston Sam Osbiston (@SamOsbiston) reported from Melksham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, it just says there is "interference on our network impacting multiple customers in your area causing intermittent speeds and performance..." - this has been going on around 2 maths and has got worse these last 2 wks.

  • JonHackett Jon Hackett (@JonHackett) reported from Steeple Ashton, England

    @virginmedia You have provided a totally inadequate service for my daughter & her house mates. As university students they need a reliable service in order for them to continue with their studies. When they called for help you agreed their speed wasn’t as promised....

  • jamiew007 Jamie Walker (@jamiew007) reported from Melksham, England

    @virginmedia how as a loyal customer, who has just renewed my contract why do I not get offered the Xbox deal? Why do you never look after existing customers?

  • Doddstar79 Andrew Dodd (@Doddstar79) reported from Bathford, England

    @virginmedia daily internet problems. Same time, every day. At least you are consistent in your terrible service.

  • RoarSoundsBath David Newton (@RoarSoundsBath) reported from Bathford, England

  • BrookesPics Mark Brookes (@BrookesPics) reported from Frome, England

    @virginmedia the 0345 454 1111 number just doesn’t work / unavailable and the live chat has a waiting time of about 60 mins. How can a loyal long term customer talk to you ?

  • Doddstar79 Andrew Dodd (@Doddstar79) reported from Bathford, England

    @virginmedia fibre down yet again. Seems to be every day about this time, and a few more times in the afternoon. So bloody annoying.

  • amooreict Antony Moore (@amooreict) reported from Bathford, England

    @BeefGolf @VirginAtlantic @virginmedia Took me 95 minutes on the phone on Friday to cancel ours.

  • SamOsbiston Sam Osbiston (@SamOsbiston) reported from Melksham, England

    @virginmedia Apparently, there are no issues according to the service website!! But we are most definately experiencing them...sick of turning it on and off etc too and phoning only to be fobbed off.

  • lyntaylor55 Lyn Taylor (@lyntaylor55) reported from Southwick, England

    @virginmedia so we can now watch TV but what is wrong with the Internet? It's been coming and going for weeks and it's still doing that. Thought you might have sorted it when you sorted the overnight problem!

  • BrookesPics Mark Brookes (@BrookesPics) reported from Frome, England

    @virginmedia day 2 and 53 minutes so far listening to your gushing voiceover in the queue on 0345 464 1111. What do I need to do to talk to you? Don’t say online chat as that’s the same. It’s an important situation and I don’t know how I can talk to you ? Help!!

  • BrookesComms Mark Brookes (@BrookesComms) reported from Frome, England

    @Flock_ED After years of terrible service from BT we switched to virgin media (like almost everyone in our street) and have had about 200mbps every day for three years. It not the cheapest but it’s very fast.

  • Yarrhful captain chungus™ (@Yarrhful) reported from Melksham, England

    @virginmedia are you having issues with business stuff in the Melksham area? Got nothing and your status page says all is good.

  • sarahcarter_sw Sj_carter (@sarahcarter_sw) reported from Bathford, England

    @virginmedia Are you kidding???? I’ve been messaging on your webchat with zero response! I will be cancelling the services & moving her to BT at this rate! Absolutely not acceptable for someone of her age to be terrified by her phone not working!!! She doesn’t own a mobile.

  • tyokischild Dominic Ellison (@tyokischild) reported from Frome, England

    After being shackled to shockingly appalling service for over ten miserable years our contract with @virginmedia ends in a couple of weeks! 🥳 🎊 🎉

  • errolraines Errol Raines (@errolraines) reported from Pilton, England

    @virginmedia No still on going I’m afraid. Ever since upgrading to 500mb service

  • VelocityRockFM Andy Wrintmore (@VelocityRockFM) reported from Frome, England

    @virginmedia why have you been so awful the last 6 months?

  • lyntaylor55 Lyn Taylor (@lyntaylor55) reported from Southwick, England

    @virginmedia help! Have phone 150 (automated!). No local problem. Have done everything the automated response told us to do. Including the automated text message. Still no Internet through hub. No WiFi! We have TV. Now what? A human might be able to help!

  • sorro79 Dan Sorensen (@sorro79) reported

    Good work @virginmedia solid fibre connection for months, come and do work to "improve our service in the area" and since starting work (at home) this morning I've had Internet for 1.5 hours, not likely to be back on until 3pm, superb!

  • sospainter 🅿🅰🆄🅻 🅲🅾🅻🅻🅸🅴🆁 (@sospainter) reported from Whyteleafe, England

    @virginmedia I’m currently in a WhatsApp message with customer relations. I say that, they responded almost an hour ago.

  • HallworthIan Ian Hallworth (@HallworthIan) reported

    @virginmedia Text is same crap message not BOT as what's app. Which I have now been using for 14 hours with you. Yes 14 hours of ignored messages long silences repeated questions and overall dire service

  • bellachu1984 vicky🤓 (@bellachu1984) reported

    @virginmedia I have nothing wired or Ethernet the router goes down everything goes off can see it on the TiVo box downstairs too as the lights come on to say the router is down

  • hayleythetiny Hayley The Tiny (@hayleythetiny) reported

    @virginmedia trying to get on to your live chat feature to talk to your agents, and it’s not working? Is this a feature you no longer offer or is it just broken? Considering leaving yourselves but would like to chat to someone first

  • Mark28146027 Mark (@Mark28146027) reported

    @virginmedia This has been going on since March so plenty of time to sort things out , shame as now I have to go with BT again so another customer lost

  • sorro79 Dan Sorensen (@sorro79) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply and the link to your autocomp scheme, however I believe this only kicks in if the outage lasts more than a day? I have lost 2 hours of working time so far today, which by 3pm will be 5 hours, over half a working day.

  • tania_glyde Tania Glyde (@tania_glyde) reported

    Here we go again @virginmedia. The connection drops but when I go to report it, your status page tells me all is fine so the problem must be at my end! How many ppl have to click before you take an issue seriously?

  • chandjethwa Chand Jethwa (@chandjethwa) reported

    @virginmedia Unable to track the complaint. No thread provided, no acknowledgement and no updates. Every time you call you get told manager to call you today. Please stop lying

  • tania_glyde Tania Glyde (@tania_glyde) reported

    @virginmedia It's dropping on my hub, so Mac and phone. I have had some notifications from VM that you are doing work in my area (NW5) but they haven't covered everything. this used to happen a lot, and your service has got better in the last year or two, but it's got bad again recently.
