  • Knitswithbeer 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

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

    @virginmedia And the problem yet again wasn't solved over the phone. Wouldn't admit who cancelled or why. Did admit could identify 'frequency issues' Company full of ignorant eejits

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

    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 🤬🤬🤬

  • radio_caroline Trains (@radio_caroline) reported from Haydock, England

    Virgin media broadband fails again telephone and broadband went off around 2pm still no service not two months goes by without it failing think twice before you sign up

  • Lisa_P117 Lisa Patel (@Lisa_P117) reported from Horwich, England

    @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!

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

    @virginmedia TBF, I have been trying to get to the solution for over a week. I have other things to do you know...🤨

  • coachdancad Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted it yesterday and a number of times previously. I’m now in receipt of a Cat. 6 Ethernet cable which has improved wired speeds - I’d suggest these should come as standard - but wireless speeds are still slow and unreliable.

  • 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.

  • coachdancad Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Used the guide before - it’s why I moved the router. Poor signal is because I moved the PS4 5ft across the room. But it’s less than 5m away from the router in a straight line - obscured only by the floor and the tv is sits next to.

  • 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.

  • JonGre69 Grolshy (@JonGre69) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia ****** Taliban getting WiFi signal in caves in Afghanistan and I can’t get a signal in most rooms in my ****** house

  • DJGlassBack PENALTYPOOL (@DJGlassBack) reported from Liverpool, England

    Why is my wifi not working yet again @virginmedia beyond a joke now

  • SteveHaylesALAW Steve 🎗🎗 (@SteveHaylesALAW) reported from Walkden, England

    @virginmedia is there any issues in the M28 area. I have no phone or broadband but your app says service status is ok

  • bigjeast John Eastham (@bigjeast) reported from Wigan, England

    @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.

  • alchteb beth (@alchteb) reported from Warrington, England

    Cheers @virginmedia on hold for 1hr4mins to try and sort out why I’m only getting 30% of my promised internet speed only to be hung up on instantly 🤯🤬. Try calling back and customer service closed!! #timetogobacktosky

  • wiganshale john shale (@wiganshale) reported

    @virginmedia @Ofcom just to let you know that tivo is still freezing up, whilst my wife is watching it and that your only solution is to turn it off and on is not an appropriate response. take the tivo away and deduct from my bundle and I'll get a Freeview box.

  • 1401Joanne Joanne Connolly (@1401Joanne) reported

    @virginmedia having broadband issues in fk2 area. It keeps connecting and disconnecting done a reboot and still the same yet app saying no issues can you check it

  • T1Viper Tom (@T1Viper) reported

  • trotterfeet Don (@trotterfeet) reported

    @virginmedia is there a problem in the SE9 area please?

  • Martin_Volver Martin Volver (@Martin_Volver) reported

    @MoneySavingExp @virginmedia #virginmedia stay away from virgin..always down...

  • CaswellAlun Rhys Caswell (@CaswellAlun) reported

    @virginmedia It's just getting to be a joke now, I don't want to put this over social media but feel that it's the only ways to get answers and to be honest it's not. Last straw was to have the phone put down on me after 1hr and 27mins, 47 of that was waiting to answer.

  • car37Lon2cas Albert Ross (@car37Lon2cas) reported

    @Thecarmagdriver @virginmedia We ditched them and went with EE for better service and customer service.

  • oligoodman Oli Goodman (@oligoodman) reported

    @virginmedia We’ve given customer service 24 hours to get a replacement box to us after 5 days without tv. They’ve said it will be January. Time to leave me thinks. @skytv

  • Adajio_String Land of confusion (@Adajio_String) reported

    @virginmedia V6 box. What a pile of poo. Had it for a week and haven’t been able to play ONE recording back without it freezing at some point. Called them four times, after 25 mins on hold they hang up. This has happened on more than one occasion. #Virginmedia not worth it.
