    So. I've now had 3 @virginmedia techies in 2 days tell me they've resolved my issue. That remains to be seen. It in no way excuses the engineer no-show 🤬🤬🤬

    To all my followers. DO NOT go to @virginmedia we had installed last night. Now not working. My vulnerable mum cannot get hold of me-phone not working-as they have no engineers until Tuesday. They don’t work Sunday & earliest app is Tuesday! If mum falls again god help Virgin🤬

    @virginmedia epic broadband, crap TiVo ... shocking my box every couple of weeks / less doesn’t work and I have to restart. The package I pay for isn’t value for money and calling up to report issues is painful, 35+ mins I was on for last time!

  • bigjeast

    @virginmedia why is your internet always dropping out in the wn3 area. 4 weeks on the bounce now. Latency and speed test are poor too.

    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @saoirse_22 @SamsungUK @O2 @virginmedia It appears to be a security certificate issue but I can actually access the certificate details on my phone. So, stumped but learned how to do something I didn't know I didn't know... #JoHari

    @virginmedia Signed up with Virgin to save money, offered Sky movies for 3 months, not told to cancel myself 30 days before 3 months up, didnt need it Anyway as i had it on netflix, now have to pay double for 2 months. Very annoyed with Virgin...

    @virginmedia I'm seriously thinking of holding my direct debit up. it MIGHT stand up in court now. time of service, against time of service PROVIDED. I'm paying for a POOR, POOR service.

    @virginmedia Is there an issue in area 20, no TV or Wi-Fi

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia No. I don't think it's a broadband issue but it certainly has me foxed. I feel it's an Android version issue.

    Dan the Man 🏳️‍🌈 (@pendo86) reported from Rainhill, England

    The internet is so shockingly shit at mum’s house. Can’t even watch Netflix without it buffering every 2 minutes. Please sort it out @virginmedia!

    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia Sick and tired of this now. Acknowledged there was a problem, sorted it*, asked me to monitor gor a week and if not working they'll then send a man out. *still happening ffs

  • MsLucyOpenshaw
    M S L U C Y 💟 (@MsLucyOpenshaw) reported from Bolton, England

    It’s a bloody good job I don’t rely on the internet to make a living because the connection with @virginmedia is shocking and I’d be skint. But I am skint from how much we pay for this shit internet.

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia There are a couple of threads I've contributed to. I'll try to post the one I looked at this morning and posted the same comment I tweeted. My point is that it shouldn't be a one at a time fix.

  • Horwichbloke

    @sinners40 @virginmedia As soon as I saw an engineer messing about with the service box in front of my house, I knew I'd be in trouble. Supposed to be a upgrade to my service. Going well isn't it!

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia The issue has been constant for 2 weeks. Option 2 at the second press is when calling about an account different to the one I'm calling from.

    Drew #KroenkeOut #ArtetaOut (@Andrew70265613) reported

    @virginmedia The problem is the constant disconnection, not the speed. Almost every single day of the week Virgin will go down. Now you want a £240 early disconnection fee. Im not going to give up on this. Even if it means contacting you via every social media platform. This is a joke.

  • CazzEtherington

    @virginmedia Hi, WiFi is very patchy today. Do you know if there any reported issues in Darlington DL3?

    Good morning @virginmedia so it is fight me for Anthony Joshua. If I pay for the pay-per-view event. Will I get the undercard this time because the last time I paid for a Joshua fight the service you provided was damn right out of order #JoshuaUsyk @EddieHearn

  • Andrew70265613
    Drew #KroenkeOut #ArtetaOut (@Andrew70265613) reported

    @virginmedia @petetong @Carl_Cox Horrifically awful service, need to be contacted, been on the phone for 1 hour, put through various people - JUST WANT TO CANCEL MY CONTRACT. NOT PAYING £240 WHEN YOU CANT PROVIDE AN ACTUAL RELIABLE INTERNET CONNECTION. IM NOT GOIG AWAY.

  • LM_Marlow
    Lee Marlow (@LM_Marlow) reported

    @virginmedia hello - no Virgin tv at all today in Le67. Can’t log in to my account because I’m not “the primary account holder” (I am the primary account holder) This happens every month with your broadband - I hope it’s not going to start with the tv service, too.

  • justinmacleod
    justin macleod (@justinmacleod) reported

    @virginmedia why do you think it’s acceptable in an age where we are all working from home, to decide to in your words make updates to the network from 9am - 3pm. Why couldnt the upgrade be done at night to lessen the disruption

  • MarPro_UK
    Marketing Pro (@MarPro_UK) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, but married, same address, there's no data issue there. It's just an excuse.
