    @virginmedia @Sedds_lep You are not missing much Sedds. If it wasn't for woodman we would be 4 down.

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Who in their right mind schedules planned maintenance for a Monday morning and says it could go on until three pm? Oh yeah, @virginmedia - cracking service as always #workfromhome #muppets

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Since I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia That just wants me to upgrade my package; I just want to order the pods. Why is the website so poor?

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’m trying to order some pods to sort out my truly shocking Wi-Fi, but can’t work out how to do so. Please could you help me?

  • IanForrest10 Ian Forrest (@IanForrest10) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Plugged in new Wi-Fi hub all good. Paired new remote with box but upgrade to box failed error code M63. Bot is all over place customer service rep basically non-engineer saying turn it off on again!

  • Elisabet0490 🪷Elisabet🪷 (@Elisabet0490) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been suffering drop outs all day, now I have no working TV or internet. Being told it's my equipment when it never is, it's getting old that excuse. I will apparently have to wait 3 days for "an engineer to come out" - I can't I have to go to work 😤

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia @1862_TwoPies Cut and paste Cut and paste Cut and paste That is NOT customer service even if you fake it to be

  • fos100 Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop

  • geordiegal97 Amy 🌼 (@geordiegal97) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia broadband is down. WiFi light is solid green whilst the bar is flashing green. Help!

  • BeakerRick Rick Leeming - Beaker (@BeakerRick) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Yes and yes. I even wiped it totally a week or so ago. My wife as an iPhoneSE and is experiencing the same problem.

  • NeckSausage NeckSausage (@NeckSausage) reported from Tarleton, England

    @virginmedia really poor coverage here PR4 6, is there a mast problem?

  • BeanBolt BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+

  • TheRealRagtag Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    Not very often I say good things about @virginmedia but todays service was excellent. Peter sorted out Wi-fi problem, wavered the set up fee, and arranged a new hub after lots of line tests. Thank you. (But will have no service for 6 days in all.🙄 Refund?)

  • pstock62 Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

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

    @virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia

  • 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.

    @virginmedia @IdleMancer Not good enough @virginmedia. Yet AGAIN been prevented from working by your failing broadband. Days work lost which I'll need to make up in what should be my time off. No explanation. No service. No refund unless this farce continues for 2 days. Will be changing provider ASAP.

    @virginmedia I've not had broadband all day and now the services portal is saying an estimated fix time of 11:06pm TOMORROW. What is this shambles. I work from home and so two days impacted now. Can you give any update besides what your shocking services portal gives?

    @virginmedia No, when clicking the link it states unable to check the service in my area? Very unhelpful and your chat does not provide an update either
