  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @DisneyPlusUK @NPGLondon @virginmedia better sought out the local outage for this. Wait, I can watch on my tablet via the app you say? Not unless they also sought out the WiFi issue. Call them to complain you say? Not unless they sought out the landline issue...😐

  • MariaMcCool Maria McCool Davis (@MariaMcCool) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia one of my landlords has increased speed to 200mg in a property in L15 3JY but the speed still remains at 300kb. Is there a problem in the area?

  • cbj622w livesformusic (@cbj622w) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Ls2787 @virginmedia It's the only thing they good for I think is the internet never had a problem in all the years with them

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia And no response on my second, and then an incorrect bill, this is why someone is meant to be ringing me to sort it out and deal properly as I’m so angry with the service received

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia yet again pushed over to tech as my recurring problem has recurred. Yet again no response #fedup #keyworkers

  • sandrachataway Sandra Scott (@sandrachataway) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia ok I have rebooted my broadband, checked my connectivity via an app, a bot & a recorded voice. I teach online & have had to cancel 3 clients & managed more advanced learners online. My devices are won’t reconnect. I have clients booked for the morning too. #help

  • PaulGee1993 Paul Gee (@PaulGee1993) reported from Liverpool, England

  • AgentLittleP Paul #WhatDayIsItEdition (@AgentLittleP) reported from Liverpool, England

    Geeky thing I've just noticed with our new FTTP connection from Sky (supplied & fitted by Openreach) we now have a IPv6 IP address! Never had one before as VirginMedia do not natively have one nor offer one!

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken with someone in the new development team who’s advised they’ve escalated all my complaints and someone should be ringing me directly to take through and fix everything. However no response

  • adammorris101 Adam Morris (@adammorris101) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia NW6 broadband has become very unstable the last couple of days. Any ideas why?

  • scottdb79 Scott (@scottdb79) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia WiFi down yet again in SE6, what’s going on, can your servers not cope with temperatures above 30c! I think it’s time to stop using the #stayconnected tag line, it’s not doing you any favours. Some of us have to work to do and deadlines to meet.

  • nicohobson nicohobson (@nicohobson) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia hi , your text service is awful and your agent went missing for 20 mins after I passed security and then said they were going to be an hour? It took 2 days for you to get back in the first place

  • Spencer0814 HARRY T (@Spencer0814) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @richardbranson wow! We are barely into the month of August and my broadband service is down yet again!!! The tech team are saying it will take 4.5hrs b4 connection

  • Sussexmerlins Nick Weston 🇪🇺 (@Sussexmerlins) reported from Hove, England

    @yorkshirerosie @virginmedia Agree. Might just be a faulty router. Unless you live in a castle there shouldn’t be a problem in the room next to the router. I’m in the garden and my router is 20m away in the front room.

  • AjayPatel1000 Ajay Patel (@AjayPatel1000) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia never mind the show, my broadband has been down all day and it’s impossible to get hold of anyone at VM. Please get in touch ASAP.

  • Mum2fifteen Donna Ireland (@Mum2fifteen) reported from Stamford, England

    @virginmedia any known issues with broadband in SK postcodes? My internet isn’t working

  • j_roddy Jane (@j_roddy) reported from Urmston, England

    Why is @virginmedia so appalling? Broadband been off for 48 hours,but they manage to take their monthly payment without a problem which gets more expensive each month..if your thinking of virgin think again!

  • j_roddy Jane (@j_roddy) reported from Urmston, England

    @lIPJIl @virginmedia WFH and self employed with no WiFi...can’t get through to them only automated service...maybe invest more into the company rather than pay your shareholders fat bonuses!

  • FayeHow31059254 Faye Howard (@FayeHow31059254) reported from City of Kingston upon Hull, England

    @virginmedia I’ve NEVER had a mobile phone contract with you yet there is an account showing on my credit report which is in arrears? I don’t know who to contact. Can you help?
