  • wlasinclair Wendy Sinclair RN (@wlasinclair) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve tried a few times but I keep getting cut off when they don’t know how to deal with the query. I’ll keep trying and maybe someone will be able help!! Thank you 🙏

  • Lara__1302 LaraB (@Lara__1302) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t but now that I have a link I will try that. Fingers crossed they will be able to resolve the issue

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Pretty ironic when the @virginmedia Service Status page doesn’t work.

  • Gfunk_in3D Gfunk_in3D (@Gfunk_in3D) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia feels like this is getting tweeted a lot but your internet is the absolute worst!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia And another issue. Must be that time of the year when I seem to have numerous problems in a short time span. Now it’s saying incorrect password when trying to join the WiFi network (password hasn’t changed), or it’ll say there’s a connection problem to internet and a red button.

  • Lara__1302 LaraB (@Lara__1302) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia It’s for mine and my daughters mobile. Been going on now for 2 days. Can’t make or receive calls. Been into Virgin store today and they gave me a new sim. But couldn’t help with checking to see if there were issues in my area.

  • thestuchy13 Damon (@thestuchy13) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @virginmedia getting beyond a joke this no internet again in WN5 area after only getting it back working after 3 days last week you had better refund some of my money back and also data charge for my family's mobile network not good enough

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So service resumed around 3pm with an email confirming it. In the last 5/10 mins the wireless connection keeps disappearing off. It’ll return for a second or two, then drop again. Unsurprisingly your status checker says there isn’t an issue despite there clearly being one.

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Still on the phone. Just found out the eng that was supposed to come today to fixed the frayed cables outside was a no show. Also all my smart lights have stopped working meaning the local network (not broadband) has gone down. Finally you’ve agreed to issue a deadlock letter.

  • northernmicks Kenneth Owen (@northernmicks) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia that's the problem businesses assume customers are happy to spend their lives phoning them and be happy wasting hours and hours

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I don’t have a landline or a Virgin phone, I don’t want to rack up a huge phonebill calling you to sort out an issue on your side. I’ve now performed a factory reset and still not working. So I’ve ran the broadband test from my Virgin Media page and it says the equipment is off.

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia Hello I spoke to retentions yesterday and my contract is going down to 78.00 something but havent had an email from you with the new details im not having any luck with online chat noone responded

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So it looks like the router resetting was the start of a bigger issue. Router appears to be having issues again. Your diag service thinks the router is switched off but it certainly isn’t.

  • BrightLitegames BrightLightGames (@BrightLitegames) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down AGAIN, Queue the automated twitter response. Time to find a new provider I think!

  • mdrvideo Mike Roberts (@mdrvideo) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    Cant access my business website @virginmedia keep hanging up worst customer service ever #virginbroadband #useless

  • walshy31 Paul Walsh (@walshy31) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia as an existing customer disgusted by experience my wife had ordering a new phone! Told delivered Thursday, worked from home, then advised by @YodelOnline it would be next Tuesday! Virgin day not down to them then receives a bill for end of the month #CustomerService

  • Gfunk_in3D Gfunk_in3D (@Gfunk_in3D) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia I really don’t know how you can morally charge for the pitiful service you provide. You have the most consistently unreliable download speeds I have ever come across.

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin came home to a letter today stating your increasing my bill 3.00 per month from September! What's happened to loyal customer discounts utter joke! #Nothappycustomer
