  • 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

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently

    @PowerBoar @virginmedia @virginhelp they are as bad unfortunately just changed shape … still same poor up to 20wifi devices connection. and they giving customers their hubs they received from others who returned them regardless faulty or not … it’s terrible 😣

  • ChrisFoxRacing
    Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

  • ClaireabelleRed
    CLAIRE GROVER 🐝 (@ClaireabelleRed) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for updating I've had my 82 year old dad on the phone as he only has the main tv channels so I guess its the same issue as the pixalation issues. I'll let him know

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia Yes currently showing resolution time of 0230 04/11 this is a really poor service it has been off for the majority of the day

  • twiddlemeister
    Definitely not Elon Musk (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    Probably consider an unlimited tariff at some point to make up for when Virgin Media goes down.

  • jimmysteamboat
    jimmy (@jimmysteamboat) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!

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

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

  • WCONNOLLY2512
    William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported from Manchester, England

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • AckersStorm
    Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

  • 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.

    Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just connected a new router for faster speeds and it isn’t working. I’ve called up and your customer services person who told me contradictory information, put me on hold and then hung up on me.

  • Rayzor74
    Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported from Stockport, England

    Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

  • bludav_andrew
    👽 (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow

  • OldhamBradd
    Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, England

    Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • SimpaticoGem
    Gemma ≅ (@SimpaticoGem) reported from Walkden, England

    Tell me why with my @virginmedia wifi and my @O2 phone contract, MY WIFI CUTS OUT CONSTANTLY AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL ANYWHERE I GO?! Thought being a customer of you both was supposed to reap massive benefits for me?

  • NeilAshtonActor
    Neil Ashton (@NeilAshtonActor) reported from Stockport, England

    @jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.

  • SiManM20
    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm

    @Benleo @virginmedia Virgin Active gym were the worst gym I've ever dealt with. Avoid!

  • Monapics
    Monapics.com (@Monapics) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They have been fined by the mediator in my case but still have not fixed a simple email issue. They have now been pulled up again to get it sorted from last year. Dealing with the Indian call centres have had no progress there, and only one person spoke understandable English

  • rsole1212
    Bob holness (@rsole1212) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Vodafone is very good for internet, we've got it. Never had a problem and if you've got a Vodafone phone you get discount I think.

    @Benleo @virginmedia Ben , should of gone Starlink. These all in one sell you a carpet as well, just ain't working anymore. You try to save money with an all in one, all you get is problems.

  • hughwjames
    Hugh James (@hughwjames) reported

    @Benleo I think I had a situation with Virgin media where they called me 5 times back to back. Their customer service is not British.

  • conning_john
    John Conning (@conning_john) reported

    @Benleo @CallmeRight1 @virginmedia I had heard they have a dreadful reputation for customer service or lack of it…..

    @Benleo @Christi61144576 @virginmedia What a shame you had such a bad experience. I’ve always had excellent service from them. And that’s from whenever they brought cable to my street 15 - 20 years ago.

  • teamwedge999
    moo deng (@teamwedge999) reported

    .@virginmedia have gone back on the contract I was offered. Now trying to charge me £432 for a month's bill when it should only be £14.15. Shocking customer service.

  • TessaOutlook
    TessaRestoreBritain🇬🇧🇮🇪 (@TessaOutlook) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia You should speak to @dshensmith about this, he's had some issues himself with these companies but to do with phones. He might be able to give some advice obviously not legal or watch his videos if you haven't very good information in them
