  • Danzy92 Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I’ve checked everyday and despite signing up for text updates about this issue, I’ve heard nothing despite being 48 hours after the date it was supposed to be fixed. Not even a further text so confirm a delay. Could you provide any update to the SO15 postcode issue?

  • jarod4400 clarabella (@jarod4400) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Funny how you don’t boast about your crap customer service.

  • Danzy92 Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia wifi issues for over a week. Run test every day for it to just say there’s some issue in your area. When will this be fixed? Costing me money to commute somewhere where I can get wifi and disrupting my work.

  • Alec2306 Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia I have been constantly looking at the site and it keeps telling me there are no issues. It only appears to be WiFi that is an issue

  • KpRoebuck Spider (@KpRoebuck) reported from Eastleigh, England

    @virginmedia I have twice called to discuss the price of my package & twice, after eventually speaking to someone, they attempt to transfer me to customer services but cut me off. I've been with Virgin for over a decade but I'm being penalised for my loyalty. Please help

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia So I'm told after speaking to you. But seeing it on service page though.

  • edinnature Stephen groom (@edinnature) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia connection down again. No internet. Connecting to router etc, rebooted, reset, reinstalled drivers, reset ipconfig. But service status still saying everythings fine...clearly not 😔

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @thedarkfenix @virginmedia I hope so. I really rely on the service now.

  • colingrinnell colin grinnell (@colingrinnell) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia is there any known problems with your WiFi hub ? The WiFi signal I receive is terrible constantly dropping out. I spend most of the time on 3G as it’s more reliable. I have rebooted all routers and boosters but noting seems to make the WiFi work

  • Duckocide Duckocide Games (@Duckocide) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia So I'm told after speaking to you. Not seeing it on service page though. Agent said there was network issue.

  • Alec2306 Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia I have done all of this multiple times and nothing has come up. Today has been particularly bad where I lose signal every 5 minutes. I don’t need to keep doing the troubleshooting steps, I need a new router or an engineer

  • Lou_LouFML LoUlOu (@Lou_LouFML) reported from Southampton, England

    Cheers @virginmedia WiFi gone down in the middle of the FA cup semi final. Utter **** as usual

  • SarahJaneDyke Sarah-Jane Felicity (@SarahJaneDyke) reported from Eastleigh, England

  • SGHarber46 @sourcingstewart (@SGHarber46) reported

    @virginmedia Great marketing but that’s it service rubbish, internet is the worse out their , avoid

  • finallygav Gav (@finallygav) reported

    @virginmedia so my broadband is down, again. Seems like only a month ago I was having the same issue. Rang your service dept, all your systems are down and you can’t help. Not a good impression when broadband is needed more than ever during restrictions. Time for a change?

  • kec1964 Kate Crisp (@kec1964) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, she lives next door and I am a Virgin Media customer too so if there were any issues in the area I’d have known!

    @virginmedia what is going on with your broadband today ? on off on off never consistent? Paying for 516mb more like getting 5mb how can virgin media be multi-ward winning services across the UK ? As a new customer it had to be the slowest and the worse broadband service ever

  • nathanrich03 Nathan Richardson (@nathanrich03) reported

    @virginmedia hi are you having problems with broadband in the NE3 area? It's been off since yesterday and the status checker says it's all ok. I know I'm not the only one in my street with issues

  • BrightKnight15 BrightKnight (@BrightKnight15) reported

    @virginmedia I have written a formal complaint to your head office, about 2 weeks ago but heard nothing. How long should I expect to wait for, at least, acknowledgement of receipt of my letter? Or should I expect no reply at all, which would align with the standards of your telephone agents?
