  • mattjlawrence Matt Lawrence 📣 (@mattjlawrence) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Please @virginmedia learn from the banks and offer your customers the option to pause services or waive cancellation charges for people losing their jobs. £80 to take TV off my plan after 15 years as a customer is not helpful

  • chefmike56 Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia In thse hard times is virgin media aware that so many people not happy could so easily join somewhere else eventually making your company go bust . The service is dire

  • jennyjanepalmer Jenny Palmer (@jennyjanepalmer) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Are you joking @virginmedia broadband down again, this is at least the 3rd time in a few weeks.. and started before everyone started working at home..

  • stwpt stewpot (@stwpt) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I would recommend to be honest with customer

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia You didn’t mention the refund that Virgin Media clients should be getting. Reputational damage is one thing, but unless these repeated service outages cost your shareholders money, things won’t improve.

  • Kev_Williams Kev Williams (@Kev_Williams) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia ok, what’s happening with the outage. Nothing on yr website or app. Cannot work from home, losing money.

  • GordonFong Gordon Fong (🍸🦐🦀🥋) (@GordonFong) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @lisaculling @virginmedia They’ve broken one big f-off sized cable and are installing another one. Not a small job but even then I ended up with a leaking ducting by then yesterday.

  • AFCBCarl carl mieleszko (@AFCBCarl) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia internet down since 23:30 last night in Bournemouth still not up and running what kind of organisation are you, you lose your trains, lose your cola, now losing the plot! @skytv & @BT from now on.

  • calhoon Andy Orritt (@calhoon) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @Toastylechat @virginmedia We’re down too. Seems to be a Bournemouth/Christchurch/Poole thing.

  • GordonFong 5G.ordon Fong (🍸🦐🦀🥋) (@GordonFong) reported from Bournemouth, England

    I actually spoke to the #virginmedia engineer who had to fix the fibres in Southampton the other week. A utilities company had cut through them down by the roundabout at the end of the M271 he said. Up all day doing that of which was done by another company!

  • chefmike56 Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I'm at the point like many of considering another service.. you get no compensation your phone in lines are over subbed and the service is below disgraceful not with a quid a month let alone the £52 I pay

  • alice_hancock1 Liss 🏳️‍🌈🐿️ (@alice_hancock1) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Virgin media is so broken today even the service status page gives me an error

  • AFCBCarl carl mieleszko (@AFCBCarl) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia I don’t think you understand do you!! not just surrounding areas, this is misinformation and is causing your customers 30miles away from Southampton to waste time checking with work it support, windows it support, and pissing about with their routers because your not honest

  • AFCBCarl carl mieleszko (@AFCBCarl) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @benedictsf @virginmedia @skytv @BT That’s good but I have had nothing but issues with sky broadband in the past! Touch wood apart from today I haven’t had any issues with BT for 18months

  • chefmike56 Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia No none but it's clear from many posts that you at virgin are having a problem ... I have tv but no internet my security cameras went down at midnight so that's how long here in bournemouth I have had no service for my hard earned money .. 3 times for me in last couple months

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Whether broadband is a utility or not is a point of view. From my perspective, it’s a utility. I accept no supplier can guarantee service. VM may be just be on an unlucky streak. Your service is presently not something I trust - based on current experience.

  • chefmike56 Michael Darracott (@chefmike56) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I work online and am really angry I have been unable to run my business so far today .. I entrust my working life to your firm and it's worse than crap

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia @JellybobUK Your service is now rubbish. This is becoming a regular occurrence.

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia @ceasuri_rele This is happening too often now. After the recent outage debacle this is simply not acceptable. Please confirm that all customers in the affected areas will be receiving financial compensation.

  • DavidRice22 David Rice (@DavidRice22) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Right this second, no. But it’s becoming clear that I cannot rely upon the service. It really is a utility. My water, gas & electricity all seem to run smoothly but not my broadband service. It is very frustrating.

  • Pariz1 Pariztasia Beaverhousen (@Pariz1) reported

    @virginmedia @vieiravascos I also have CONSTANT issues with your service and I mean CONSTANT. Your call centre staff are unapologetically unhelpful and yet I still pay an arm and a frigging leg for a service I can hardly use!!! I’m fuming! @Ofcom Virgin needs investigating!

  • Panks80 Pank (@Panks80) reported

    @virginmedia Would love to, called yesterday evening. Wasn't cut off this time, but you were unable to rectify a issue you caused. I complained about the service- I was told a manager will call me back in 2 hours. I said “I'll give you three.” Guess who didn't get a call back?

  • Thegee_gee GeeGee (@Thegee_gee) reported

    @virginmedia internet sucks i cant lie kmt

  • steveshg steveshg (@steveshg) reported

    @derrickca @virginmedia I changed from virgin to @sky good service and decent price

  • cyclemad678 Chap1951 😷 (@cyclemad678) reported

    @virginmedia Ran a wired test and got full speed. It’s the hub that seems the problem. We’ve got secondary plug in hubs on the landing and bedroom. Any ideas?

  • MargueriteAlexa Marguerite Alexander (@MargueriteAlexa) reported

    @virginmedia @CarersUK How do I escalate complaint ref104131881. You did not explain the porting process regarding phone no’s when I cancelled my contract in Dec 2019. You chased for money I do not owe and have passed my details to a debt collector. I’m still awaiting reply to my letter dated 5/8/20!!!

    @virginmedia Many times no solution, the exchange is oversubscribed: poor customer service.

  • snailofficial_ Snail official (@snailofficial_) reported

  • mcleansqueak paul mclean (@mcleansqueak) reported

    What’s happening? More like what’s not happening. #virginmedia internet. Intermittent, half speed, no upload. No problems in the area so that means there’s nothing wrong, right? Wrong.
