  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  • 92Tevs Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

  • duckyblog Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.

  • NatashaVic Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • pstock62 Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • DannyLannon dannyWAFClannon (@DannyLannon) reported from Wigan, England

    @Louisewafc @virginmedia Nice of Stoke fans turn up to support us

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia just been took out of a game of fifa, that I was winning! Because of your awful internet. Get it fixed!!

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  • Yasserdaebes Y3 😳 (@Yasserdaebes) reported

    @virginmedia It’s too slow in the weekends which means the network is trash

  • IamDavidford David Ford (@IamDavidford) reported

    @virginmedia Passing the bots is impossible! They can’t help over sms and direct me to phone Virgin....which I have done and that’s how I got the pod🤪 round and round in circles I go, never getting closer to good WiFi 🤔

  • Edward_Marcus Edward Marcus (@Edward_Marcus) reported

    @LDesesperes @virginmedia I signed up 5 years ago. My bill is constantly going up, and in my opinion the service is going down. Still have my original box and it’s painfully slow. They won’t send a new one because according the their system it’s working ‘fine’.

  • Charles11522381 Charles (@Charles11522381) reported

    @virginmedia Home hub 3 the white one. I've did the self help multiple times over the past months it just keeps telling me to reset but that doesn't help. In fact that self help is useless.

  • mbeddoes80 michael (@mbeddoes80) reported

    @virginmedia hi I have done a service status online as my broadband is playing up. It says there is a problem outside of the house. Just wondered how long this will last. Ip119bj

  • prattydave david pratt (@prattydave) reported

    @virginmedia can you please tell me who touches something that makes the internet that we pay a fkn fortune for to go down all of a sudden. Either wake the bloke up who is leaning on the space bar or sort it out please it’s doing my nut in. Please explain !!!

  • rickpLostCause Rick P (@rickpLostCause) reported

    @LDesesperes @virginmedia Haha - been with them for 10 years and never have they offered me any discount…. Not even if I renewed my contract. Great broadband but jeez they milk the cash

  • mat84481881 Mark Matthews (@mat84481881) reported

    @virginmedia I expected more,but let down again.

  • Toshniwal Tosh (@Toshniwal) reported

    @virginmedia Tried to call...had a 1 hour long conversation after which the call center folks said they didn’t see any problems. Obviously that’s not true given the other users here who are also complaining about the same problem in the area

  • Charles11522381 Charles (@Charles11522381) reported

    @virginmedia You're just assuming it's just my Wi-Fi speeds that are slow (The screenshot I was right next to modem), My Ethernet speeds are just as terrible my main computer is Ethernet connected and are pretty much the same.
