  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @JohnJef51763960 @virginmedia My neighbour & I are now monitoring & recording the outages. There has been 4 today - all about 10 minutes each. We’re seeing the same problems at the same time so there must be a common fault. It needs @virginmedia to investigate their equipment...

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @JohnJef51763960 @virginmedia I didn’t see that issue. My most recent outage was 18.00-18.10 yesterday. No issue was reported on the status page.

  • danj2k Dan Jackson (@danj2k) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    Hey @virginmedia why is my Internet up and down like a yoyo this morning? Are your systems breaking down under the load of people completing the census or something?

  • MHartleyJones Martin Jones (@MHartleyJones) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    For a while now, I’ve been dissatisfied with the performance of my elderly rented @virginmedia TIVO TV box. Tonight it ceased to function, so I phoned for a fix. I didn’t get a fix. Instead the operator tried to sell me a new one at extra cost. Not a happy bunny!

  • cdyer98 Claire Dyer ⚯͛ ⁷ (@cdyer98) reported from Great Shelford, England

    @virginmedia internet down in cb22 . system checker says nothing is wrong and fiancé is fast asleep (and knows all the passwords) so can’t get through to report the issue- usual 12.30 drop (5mins ish) happened and then it cut off completely at 4.20am

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia @JohnJef51763960 I’ve added log files to the Virgin community and have been assured that someone will be looking at the issue. From the logging feedback received suggest this is not a customer premises issue.

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with credentials today. I can’t login to VM and I know my user/pswd is correct.

  • AmanCoonar Aman Coonar (@AmanCoonar) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Sorry but your Wi-fi delivery, reliability and customer service is a joke

  • Lord_Drainlid Mick Brown (@Lord_Drainlid) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @steveeejg It looks like to get a basic fibre service it might be around £25 and for higher speed from about £40 monthly. One test is will they charge to plug a home phone into a router and allow a landline no to be transferred? Virgin Media charges, putting the monthly rate up to about £55

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia Got through within 2-3 minutes on hold. sepal did a great job diagnosing the problem and reset my password. Thanks for your help

  • paulineannejack pauline anne jackson (@paulineannejack) reported from Ely, England

    Had a big argument with @virginmedia today. On why there is no set channel for @GBNEWS. Feeling concerned they are clamping down on free speach. I have to go on line for it. 😬

  • tombowran Tom Bowran (@tombowran) reported from Willingham, England

    ironic that the hold music on @virginmedia ‘s “help line” contains the lyrics “please don’t let me down”. The very reason i’m calling for the upteenth time. 100 hours since i was promised a manager calling back in 48hrs, and 48hrs since they said it would only be another 24 hours

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @camcanary lost @virginmedia at the moment. Nothing on the service status page but this time the Cable Modem is flashing green indicating an outage

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @camcanary @virginmedia Yes outage around 9.10-9.25 and another one between 9.35-9.45

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. It’s just been registered (wasn’t showing when I first looked) and showing an expected fix estimate of 12th Feb 😱

  • danoliverm Dani Oliver 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇸🇬🇧🇯🇵 (@danoliverm) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @emmalouwillcox @virginmedia 😩 I’ve also been a victim in the past and their customer service is awful. Good luck!

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m using the hub in modem mode. From the logs (which only go back to 9.12am) there are several critical errors coinciding with each outage. It’s looking like the modem isn’t getting a response from VM at that time.

  • danj2k Dan Jackson (@danj2k) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Yeah it's not WiFi because it's affecting my pc which is connected via an Ethernet cable to the back of the hub. Just now it went down and came back up but there was no change to the lights on the hub.

  • ir_427 cj hubbard (@ir_427) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia We're on M100 fibre. Speed isn't the issue. The issue is that whole thing stops working for no clear reason; no warning lights, no issues on the service check website. It takes out all the devices at once. And it's been getting worse since the bill increase was announced.

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported from Willingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Service is restored at the moment but understand it’s an ongoing issue. Usually a short outage (9 minutes) but this was 25mins this time.

    @samatlounge @virginmedia I am so traumatised by the set up process I went through with them that I dont have the strength to cancel. I am trapped for life.

  • MShacks Michael Shackleton (@MShacks) reported

    @Netflixhelps The problem is very low muffled volume. I’m UK based and tried to view thru both TV via Virgin Media & on my iPad thru WiFi. All other programmes & films are fine.

  • jayne_ward Natalie Jayne ward (@jayne_ward) reported

    @virginmedia @EGX Hello im 02 customer does that still class me as a virgin media customer now that you joined forces, it states you can win tickets for egx through virgin media but promoting the 02 priority app does that mean I can get 50%off tickets when I'm an 02 customer but you joined forces.

  • NatK99211236 Nat K (@NatK99211236) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working… how can I be working from home. I live in Manchester my office is in London!!! Get back to me as a human not robotic voice on the call.

  • CelticFan7691 CelticFan7691 (@CelticFan7691) reported

    @virginmedia my broadband isn’t working yet your customer service doesn’t open until 8am???? Followed all your online advice but still nothing

  • Sandyknownas Sandy (@Sandyknownas) reported

    @virginmedia I was contacting you about a complaint but your process is to ignore and then ignore again!

  • MimiThebo 📚🍃Mimi Thebo🐾📚 (@MimiThebo) reported

    @samatlounge @virginmedia I left them because their minuscule upload times were making online teaching difficult. Asked for help dozens of times. Nobody cared a jot! When I left, they rang me every other day, wanting to know why I’d gone, what they could do to get me back. Went on for WEEKS. smh

  • Morgladon Morgan | professional Idiot (@Morgladon) reported

    Ahem virgin media **** YOU AND YOUR ****** CONNECTIONS

  • samatlounge Sam Missingham (@samatlounge) reported

    @MimiThebo @virginmedia their customer service is APPALLING. After 4 departments I finally got through to the right one and then he asked me who had moved into my new flat and would I recommend they reconnect Virgin!!!

  • SeeBeeOss cos (@SeeBeeOss) reported

    @virginmedia @GoodGriefLouise I’m having the exact same issue. Literally what in the actual **** is the point of this Twitter account if you cannot provide basic support to your customers? How are you still in business?
