Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia The link only states there are problems in the area, not why or how long we should be expected to be without the service.
-
Sam “Ace” Rothstein 🇪🇺 (@Conor1971) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland@martinmcnally53 @virginmedia It’s supposed to be some super fast internet but it’s broken more than it works and can’t change because of the contract
-
Ian Moran (@ianmoran) reported from Belfast, Northern IrelandSo is YouTube buffering a thing now ? Running Speedtest on my Apple TV i get 330/40 with Virgin Media and yet pretty much all videos will initially have buffering issues
-
Harbour 💚 (@HarbourLord) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia you have the worst laid out website. All I'm trying to do is speak to someone on chat to figure out why I have zero upload speed right now and honestly thinking of just cancelling my broadband contract because your site is so unfriendly for customers to navigate.
-
Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia And I was also advised if it wasn’t resolved soon I should show the contract agreed to ofcom. Hopefully you can fix this or escalate it, thanks.
-
David Simpson (@deewoodvalemufc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia your broadband is a heap of **** . Cakesmackers
-
Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Then I noticed that I was missing the children’s channels. I called and got it sorted but I was told the new bill will show as £150 odd but not to worry a manager will be applying discount, that never happened.
-
Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Nearly an hour trying to call. I have better things to be doing on a Saturday. This is atrocious. All I want is an explanation as to why I have been denied a service for two months and lied to repeatedly.
-
Josh Mainka (@JoshMainka) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@JohnWant6 @virginmedia I’ve got the same in Belfast BT5, @virginmedia network down, “C133 Network Availability” error

Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reportedFirst-time drug possession may no longer mean prosecution. From today, adults caught with a small amount of drugs for personal use may instead be referred to the HSE for support. They must admit the drugs were for their own use and agree to take part in the scheme. More on Virgin Media PLAY.

Sean Austin 316 (@seanaustin1985) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia I worked for VM as a tech and I wasnt one of them but it was common practice by some rltwchs to feather knock so they could put the job off and blame the customer for not being in..
