    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

    Patrick Veale (@nuttyhill) reported from Warrington, England

    @O2 why does your signal seem to be terrible everywhere now? Even in town centres. I know you've partnered with @virginmedia but you didn't have to share their service quality

    @virginmedia problems in St Helens WA9 any chance you know when will be back up and running had an outage all day before Christmas too and now again no TV !!

    Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I did initially and then doesn't load the page Tried calling just automated sent me links to mobile the same links already checked and then hung up No estimated time of when will be fixed.. I guess it's with people finishing work and realising their service is down hmmm

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

  • salfordbeerfest
    Independent Salford Beer Festival πŸ’™ (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

  • DougHall18
    Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • AnneWoolley1
    Anne Woolley (@AnneWoolley1) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia after having my email hacked and new password not working, you tell me you’ll get back to me in 3 to 5 days!! How is this compatible with modern day communications? Just not good enough!

  • salfordbeerfest
    Independent Salford Beer Festival πŸ’™ (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

    @virginmedia BL1 2NJ Still having problems with disconnecting and connecting, been like this for 4 hours. I have reset my router numerous times

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • salfordbeerfest
    Independent Salford Beer Festival πŸ’™ (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

  • salfordbeerfest
    Independent Salford Beer Festival πŸ’™ (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • shell634
    Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    I've spent so long on the phone to virgin media in a desperate attempt to cancel my broadband that I've heard their full playlist loop over 10 times and I now hate space man and am glad we didn't win Eurovision

    45 minutes and still on hold for virgin media . This has made my mind up to leave the service , customer service is truly still dreadful

  • SherDhesi
    Sher (@SherDhesi) reported

    @virginmedia I will only be available at 13:00pm during my lunch hour. Is that possible? I still don’t understand how my parents would be able to get help without someone close to them who’s able to advocate on their behalf.

  • NatashaHartley
    Natasha (@NatashaHartley) reported

    @virginmedia My elderly parents have been pushed into a contract with yourselves today my a very pushy salesman. They need to cancel. How do they contact you? They don’t have a number your phone line accepts. 😬😬.
