    @virginmedia Thanks for your message and offer to go on this web chat. Just tried and your closed, so this doesn’t help either!! My friend who lives with us was the reason for getting Sky sports and his team Spurs are on BT sports and he can’t watch it!!

  • mickthenorth Michael North (@mickthenorth) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t tried again as it would be my 4th attempt & I’m a very busy person. I’d appreciate any help or advice.

  • SyedaOxford Syeda Butterworth (@SyedaOxford) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @jashley586 @virginmedia Thanks just switched to this channel 🙂 can't check service status on virgin website as that appears broke too 😮🙁

  • mickthenorth Michael North (@mickthenorth) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just got home from work, after leaving home at 7.20 this morning so destined never to have the problem solved. Perhaps I should cancel my direct debit, that way I will have contact in no time!

  • diddywatts Chris Watts (@diddywatts) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia It was changed by your team trying to compete with sky but could not match the like for like with sky so asked to be left as was till my notice period was up. Virgin have made this a very difficult transition and treated a loyal customer with utter contempt

  • manwithfishhead Manwithfishhead (@manwithfishhead) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia Any idea when the broadband issue for ox145 will be fixed. When I ring 150 I get no actual update, just that you are working on it. I work from home and rely on this. Ta. :)

  • bettyjo62 Betty Jo Workman (@bettyjo62) reported from Abingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yes I live in Abingdon and the service is not good. Anytime there is rain there seems to be a problem

  • diddywatts Chris Watts (@diddywatts) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia Sorry you’ve just asked me if I’ve contacted your customer support team . How about you read the thread , yes over 5 hrs on the phone

  • mandysatwit mandy jones (@mandysatwit) reported from Witney, England

    @virginmedia On hold 15 mins so far because I want to reduce my package, do you ever answer these calls or do I just cancel direct debit 😡

  • manwithfishhead Manwithfishhead (@manwithfishhead) reported from Abingdon, England

    @MarkRover @virginmedia Nightmare, normally get good comms when things are down but I have nothing to go on.

  • Steve_Irv Steve (@Steve_Irv) reported from Cumnor, England

    @CambridgeGuy1 @virginmedia Broken here too…

  • Philsdriving Phil Jefferies🏃🚴🏊 (@Philsdriving) reported from Watchfield, England

    @virginmedia Are cables secure, no other problems with equipment. We have another box in another room which works fine

  • chrisdaleoxford Chris Dale (@chrisdaleoxford) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness @virginmedia A major fault apparently. They claim to be “working hard” to fix it. Shambles

  • ThomasSturgess3 Thomas Sturgess (@ThomasSturgess3) reported

    @virginmedia Well it seems I'll just have to continue working at another house and putting myself at risk while your team hopefully sorts their **** out because this is ridiculous.

  • Digi_Dogsbody Mike B (@Digi_Dogsbody) reported

    @virginmedia "it's as wrong as getting every digit incorrect. So it would not make sense for the user to select a credit card number using "up" and "down" buttons. When a spinbox interface is not appropriate, type=text is probably the right choice"

  • Digi_Dogsbody Mike B (@Digi_Dogsbody) reported

    @virginmedia It's not really about feelings, John. It's just bad UX. You might want a numeric control for something that could actually feasibly be incremented, such as a quantity of an item, but a credit card number is really a text string comprised of digits.

  • Amit_S_Bhopal Amit singh (@Amit_S_Bhopal) reported

    @virginmedia The number was C061121730, though that was a separate issue. My main issue now is trying to get my faulty router replaced!

  • SuzaliSusan Susan Riley (@SuzaliSusan) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have booked an engineer but that not till Tuesday. More of a problem for my friend as she having problem with her Virgin mobile too so only got WhatsApp to communicate right now. Will try do through my phone

  • SuzaliSusan Susan Riley (@SuzaliSusan) reported

    @virginmedia Have just found out that other people in the block have landlines not working. This is not an individual fault. How on earth do we report it

  • cherylwinch1 cheryl (@cherylwinch1) reported

    @virginmedia It's already known there is an outage in my area

  • SilentR0CKA Toby BCP Mitchell (@SilentR0CKA) reported

    @virginmedia Live in Thanet, entire area is down. What's the reason for this? Please don't give me a generic response

  • DanielatOCN Daniel @ OCN 💥 📢 (@DanielatOCN) reported

    @virginmedia Can you provide more information on the issues in the CT12 or thanet area? The service status shows no information and support staff answering the phones were not even aware of the outage.

  • cherylwinch1 cheryl (@cherylwinch1) reported

    @virginmedia Your service status page isn't working!
