    @virginmedia what’s going on virgin no tv since Friday morning told 5th now 6th no messages nothing paying for nothing compensation rates garbage nothing should take this long with a company like virgin L4 area

  • pillbo01 kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • Gary_Kilroy Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, England

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

  • pillbo01 kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia No as you person on 150 said you do not have a customer service that I could talk too. Your engineer said it was a fault at the box in street so I don’t know when it is fixed. But it’s not improve in the last month

  • pillbo01 kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • ChrisFoxRacing Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  • Radebreast Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • FloButcher84 strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia still no broadband in bb3 area since Thurs & update now says tomorrow for fix. Shocking customer service, why can't you tell your customers what is happening instead of saying an engineer is on the way on the updates, at least then we would know what to expect

  • Radebreast Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  • duckyblog Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia just been took out of a game of fifa, that I was winning! Because of your awful internet. Get it fixed!!

  • BooCavapoo BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia please sort out the issues with the WiFi, Internet, broadband or whatever the term us these days. It is constantly slow or not working. Having to use mobile data is not an effective substitute for the service I am paying for.

  • 80smetal4ever andi hewitt (@80smetal4ever) reported

    @virginmedia No there was no issues in my area and now it’s off again I’m just gonna look for a new internet provider not giving you’s anymore money for such an awful service

  • Smurf_RFC Smurf (@Smurf_RFC) reported

    @virginmedia There's about 100 threads with the same issue as me, I've read through them and nothing has worked

  • SitaAmin1 Sita Amin (@SitaAmin1) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve called about 30 times. Keep promising me they’ll come the next day and they don’t. Customer services are appalling. They’ve even hung up on me several times

  • steve_daly99 Stephen Daly (@steve_daly99) reported

    @virginmedia are there any plans to upgrade the virgin media connect app to support the Hub 4 as it has been out for sometime now?

  • RoryEvaans Rory Evans (@RoryEvaans) reported

    @acar321 just.....just don't break the entire o2/virgin media network

  • giigii74 georgina riley (@giigii74) reported

    @virginmedia It says the 21st. Although my app also says there is an issue with my V6 box

  • marksands69 ⚒Mark Sands⚒ (@marksands69) reported

    I love it when you get told that you will receive emails and text updates on your broadband issues but haven’t had one @virginmedia

  • MadX82 Darth MadX (@MadX82) reported

    @virginmedia Yesterday, which proved to be just as productive as all of the other times I've called. Keep getting told that I am scheduled in for that very day. Your company don't bother to give me any information to keep me in the loop, and I have to waste my time trying to get a resolution

  • milko689908 Mike (@milko689908) reported

    @virginmedia I rang to cancel after prices went up. It took 50 mins. The advisor could barely speak English, offered me a deal then said he couldn't do it. Put me on hold for minutes at a time and kept repeating himself, not listening to what I was saying.

  • LiamJacksonGlo2 Liam Jackson-Glover (@LiamJacksonGlo2) reported

    @virginmedia how can a company as large as yours take 5 - 9 hours to get though to customer service? Only to be put on hold again because there going for there lunch break or decide to cut you off? Your customer service team is a joke. I’m sick of this, I’ll be ending my contract
