    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?

    @virginmedia The same live date of the 21st still stands. Virgin have repeatedly guaranteed they’ll get it ready for then. Perhaps you can give them a nudge to let them know they have 3 days to get the outside work done. I’m sensing another let down, and I bet you won’t do anything about it!

    Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia issues again with tv & Internet, seems to be a theme for this week as not first time .There is nothing on service status :-( any idea?!

  • BrainTumourSurg
    Paul Grundy (@BrainTumourSurg) reported from Winchester, England

    Thanks to @virginmedia they install new broadband which worked for about 5 minutes. Now nothing. Follow all instructions to fix. Waited 5 hours this morning for the privilege and now 1 hour on phone still on hold Should have paid attention to the terrible reviews #wastedmyday 🤬

    @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

    I have a go at customer service a lot, but with the move @virginmedia were great, @thameswater exemplary, @SouthernWater a great guy on customer helpline and Test Valley Council efficient and personable. It can be done, you know.

    @Valhalleluja @virginmedia yep. it's typical. but i dont take the bullshit. the deal i got actually undercut the new customer prices

  • DIZZYDJC
    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    My internet is painfully slow tonight. Checked my router and it's not that, it's the internet itself. What is going on @virginmedia ? Your status says no faults but I can assure you there is. I am paying for 1GB bb and so far only reaching speeds of about 2.25 mb- explain??

  • 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.

    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Yeah I'm just gonna point out that I couldn't give a **** about the boxing Boxing is a sport that's become corrupt like the Brazilian government, money driven like a Latin American drug lord, so yeah, I'm not paying £25, on top of the £126 I pay to @virginmedia every month

  • HeresGemma
    HeresSaintGemma (@HeresGemma) reported from Totton and Eling, England

    @virginmedia need help regarding new landline not working?

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    Oh it's broadband price hike time again!! You can almost guarantee @virginmedia will try and increase the broadband prices by more than the CPI figures, then drop it back down as soon as you phone up and mention the word "Sky" EVERY. BLOODY. TIME. #MartinLewis

  • kaz123s
    Karen Simpson (@kaz123s) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia so we’ve been with out our tv service since yesterday morning. The service checker has had the fixed time extended twice. What is going on?

  • JFeathjav
    James Featherstone (@JFeathjav) reported from Southampton, England

    @davenevin @virginmedia Luckily their customer service is excellent 🥴

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Further to this, my install date has now been pushed back to 13/12. A quarter of a year later than quoted. This is unacceptable and the joke is, it won’t even happen then! It’ll get pushed back again. My partner is pregnant and Virgin are seriously letting us down. Shameful

  • leeradcliffe73
    lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @VMO2News @virginmedia @goodthingsfdn All the money we pay for this awful broadband is a joke. Oh just get the plug in booster for an extra £5 a month this will help!!! 2m from the router and can’t even send this. 3G is better than virgin. Bring on toob 🕺🏻

  • rahim94
    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @NewWorldLoading @ODEONCinemas I pulled off the ultimate scam by using the O2 priority app which I now have access to as a customer of @virginmedia following their recent merger 😈 Free ticket at odeon every Monday

  • enkeli85
    Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Woke up to a familiar site from @virginmedia Internet down, first time in the new house but it's painfully familiar!!! Not ideal when working at home, especially when one of you reports for the NHS. Of course status checker says no issues 🙄

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia I rang pre installs 3 times last week, spending an average of 1hr on the phone, getting no where nobody in preinstalls can tel me what’s going on, they just promise to get someone to call me. That call never happens

    @virginmedia I’m paying £176.00 per month for your services so quite frankly an apology isn’t good enough I’ll contact yourselves later regarding my contract the service you now offer is woeful

  • kcranebda
    Keivin Crane (@kcranebda) reported

    @virginmedia At you can see, attention to detail has been missed within this response. My name is spelled wrong. Why am I not surprised. I’ve contacted their customer service 4 times and even walked into stores. It is still not resolved. They should reach out to me. #not-impressed

  • tpembe1
    Troy Pemberton (@tpembe1) reported

    @virginmedia Just rang customer service and now been promised a date of 8th of July at 3pm. Like I said previously the date keeps moving.

    @virginmedia your WiFi is dog ****. Every day there’s a new issue. Sort it out.

  • IFBMedia
    IFB Media (@IFBMedia) reported

    This is the problem LOI TV and Virgin Media can’t solve on their own. Both have done more for this league in a few years than RTÉ managed in decades. Let that sit for a second. A streaming service and a commercial broadcaster have outworked the national broadcaster on its own game. RTÉ isn’t short on money. It’s short on will. Every household in this country funds that broadcaster through the licence fee. League of Ireland clubs are part of that country too. Yet the domestic game still gets treated like an inconvenience, squeezed out whenever something bigger comes along… That’s not neutrality. That’s a broadcaster showing you exactly where its priorities sit. And it ain’t with covering our Domestic Football teams irrespective of whether it’s home, abroad or both. Other platforms shouldn’t be doing RTÉ’s job for it. They shouldn’t have to. A national broadcaster shows up for the national game. Consistently. Not when it suits the schedule. Until RTÉ treats League of Ireland like it matters, everyone else will keep doing the job it was funded to do. That’s not a compliment to the others. It’s an indictment of RTÉ. This is exactly why Irish football needs a genuine TV deal, not scraps of coverage from whoever happens to show up. The prize money isn’t there. The funding model is fragile. A real broadcast deal is how you finally finance this league properly. Until that exists, moments like this keep repeating.

    @BBCBreaking If you think Virgin Media are bad, Virgin Mobile were beyond useless, so much so they 'joined forces' with O2. Good riddance to bad rubbish

    @virginmedia Five weeks with no broadband or TV and still no proper fix. The 4 week long area outage is supposedly resolved but I’ve still got issues!!Can you please tell me what is going on?

    Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported

    @virginmedia Hello virgin media my services has been cut off & the free channel for TV doesn't work either at all as you's won't take my payment at all. I've been trying to speak to someone with issues im currently experiencing financial but you's just want ££ & want me to upgrad
