    @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  • DoctorRood DRood 🏳️‍🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia I never expected any engineer, because I'm aware it's an outage that affects a lot of people. But your CS responses could be a lot better.

  • Simonrob1984 Simon Roberts (@Simonrob1984) reported from Saughall, England

    @virginmedia why is the service down in Chester area? #virginmediadown

  • bikbee ikkivllattun (@bikbee) reported from Chester, England

    No Wi-Fi internet in my area @virginmedia man down apparently 🙄@O2 signal **** … not sure what they’re excuse is 🤔😳….So I’m roaming round with my phone in the air hoping to get lucky 🍀 😳😩

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

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

  • Nicolajb87 Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia can you help my mum and dad they have had no telephone line since yesterday. The internet also went off but that seems to be back on now. It’s vital we get the phone on asap

  • kevsauno Kevin Saunderson* (@kevsauno) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia hello, issues with TV and WiFi in Liverpool L12 area this morning. No issues showing on the app. Tried all the usual stuff but still no connection.

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

    @virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.

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

    Sort your awful Wi-Fi out @virginmedia

  • tomrushton88 Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.

  • StuartWilksHeeg Stuart Wilks-Heeg (@StuartWilksHeeg) reported from Seaforth, England

    @tonymc39 @virginmedia Really, truly shockingly terrible.

  • Nicolajb87 Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Im not free no but shes managed to get a whats app going although the numbers they are giving her are not working. She just wants her phone to work.

  • DoctorRood DRood 🏳️‍🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia What does Virgin do for disabled people, when their internet goes down?

  • J0er_82 Jo3r (@J0er_82) reported from Garston, England

  • 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?

  • Billzy79 Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.

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

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • johnnydadude The Life Accountant (@johnnydadude) reported

    @virginmedia @timashton1979 I will have to look at going over to BT and cancelling contract due to breach of contract by virgin as can not trust due to the lies and random made up call charges! I might be happy to receive free mini box with no monthly charge as a bit of goodwill to remain customer

  • Paul_Wingrove Paul Wingrove (@Paul_Wingrove) reported

    @virginmedia so...not only no service but your service status checker down for the *second* time today. Anyone care to explain?

  • ljward46 Ljward46 (@ljward46) reported

    @giaxclarke @virginmedia Totally agree.. rubbish costumer service👎

  • Beardynoise big daddy christmas (@Beardynoise) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah I'm not putting my postcode on Beyoncé's Internet. If I did tell you what my postcode is you'd then tell me there are no reported outages but you'll look into it and send something to the back-end to fix the problem.

  • Markavfc1979 mark bravington (@Markavfc1979) reported

    @MitchM77 @virginmedia @MitchM77 dial 150 and and for customer relations if they ask why say it about your contract and a deal you was offered but customer relations can do alot better deals mate

  • galleryantiques Gallery Antiques, Vintage and Collectables (@galleryantiques) reported

    @virginmedia I had to borough neighbours phone to call virgin CS again, as I did not get the promised call back. Still no service/signal after receiving replacement sim card, now have a replacement phone sent to me, hopefully it will be here tomorrow.

  • johnnydadude The Life Accountant (@johnnydadude) reported

    @virginmedia @timashton1979 Swapna said charge was for call to speaking clock!? I'm very concerned as if one spurious call can be made and billed to me then others can!? There are no phones or sockets in the house!? He closed the complaint himself without it being resolved!?

  • giaxclarke Gia Clarke ♡ (@giaxclarke) reported

    @virginmedia Is it going to achieve anything? I’ve just spent 45 mins of my life on hold to have the call dropped on me. Every time I try get in touch something like this happens it’s really bad customer service…

  • CRASHANDBURN12 Gavin Weir (@CRASHANDBURN12) reported

    @virginmedia Any chance of using a decent courier service to deliver your routers , as @YodelOnline has it in there depot and are unable to deliver it as they are useless !

  • giaxclarke Gia Clarke ♡ (@giaxclarke) reported
