    @Fern_McGovern @SIofting @jckhth Nope. You can pay for a better service. Just as you can have Freeview TV, standard channels, most in standard definition but functional, or you can pay more for Netflix/Amazon/etc, Sky or BT with movies and sport in HD. Same principle applies.

    @AlexMacLeod9 the tv was off, the website was down, the phone was probably being inundated with calls as it was a recorded message then it cut me off! I guess all customers were doing the same. On freeview for now, I'll check later if they're back onstream.

    @NicNic711 @VirginTV National outage. They had a power cut. Knocked out the tv and website. We’ve just got BBC1 and channel 4 🙄. However fortunately we do have Freeview so are watching that at the mo.

    @virginmedia We just put freeview on tv...Wasn't a big issue.

  • Phil39023953 Floppy Phil- Collared slave of Lady Rochester (@Phil39023953) reported

    @CagedSlaveP I'm watching freeview at the moment, but really annoyed about paying a fair bit of money for a service I'm not getting

  • SimpkinsRachael rachael simpkins (@SimpkinsRachael) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice I'm in Sheffield and having the same problem with no signal quality and no freeview channels since Tuesday

  • itsjusnat NAT’ (@itsjusnat) reported

    Anyone else’s tv services down ..? I can’t access virgin or freeview..?

  • BoyCharioteer Stephen Miller (@BoyCharioteer) reported

    @petertsykes My Virgin bill this month is £92.57. I accept that occasionally there can be technological problems and that they need fixing. I can survive the trauma of having to use Freeview briefly today without whingeing about it on social media.

  • P95George George Parrish (@P95George) reported

    Why ******** have i still only got bbc, itv and channel 4? We gonna be refunded this time on all our bills @virginmedia ?? Would be better off with freeview!! Only had your boxes a week!!

  • johngunn2 johngunn (@johngunn2) reported

    @CStewart_CS May have had more to do with the National outage that Virgin suffered yesterday rather than just the train WiFi. A number of folk lost all broadband, tv and phone. We were lucky as it was just tv and could revert to freeview if needed. Back last night but not full service.

  • SteveGrubb StevieG (@SteveGrubb) reported

    @bobp1961 @virginmedia Zen, a dedicated broadband provider, superb. For TV just gone to a smart TV (with a couple of apps for the channels I want) and Freeview. VM costs were just frankly ridiculous and service problematic.
