    @virginmedia ur internet service is down in St. Helens Merseyside and cant call up as phone auto disconnects

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    Whatever you do think twice before joining @virginmedia it might look fast on paper but the 100mbs service is running slow in Kirkby when it runs at all. Customer service just blames Covid @VodafoneUK gave me prices really quickly by a lovely lady working from home

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia all about the money not about the service. In Kirkby Merseyside we have had a lot of outages since March and you are ignoring my requests for help by email, chat, FB, Twitter and don’t answer the phones. @VodafoneUK uk answered my web chat straight away

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia Please give me the contact address I guess I will compile the complaint in full and send it to whom ever overseas Virgin’s false advertising, breach of contract and not fit for purpose service I cannot see that Virgin give a toss about their customers or trying to sort internet

  • 2013jamiepep James Pepperd (@2013jamiepep) reported from St Helens, England

  • charlotte_seer C🌼 (@charlotte_seer) reported

    @madednoni @virginmedia It’s been such a long contract but I literally would be rich if I had a PENNY for each time it was bad- the amount is endless every second of every day I turn my WiFi off, in my own house??

  • MomentiumFund Momentium (@MomentiumFund) reported

    @virginmedia More issues with WiFi and surprise surprise trying to call support is a nightmare yet again, waiting for ages. keep getting cut off, wait times are "longer than usual". When are they ever not longer than usual? Not good value for money with constant flow of problems.

  • romeo8800 Rohit (@romeo8800) reported

    @virginmedia okay sure, just seems strange, if its recording onto the box, but the recording hasnt finished, it doesnt let u play from what has been recording already. the issue is the bbc iplayer stream is not HD or 4K. depends on the amount of people streaming from bbc iplayer itself.

  • swilsonnews Steven Wilson (@swilsonnews) reported

    @virginmedia It now says there is a problem in the area. A few minutes ago it wouldn't allow me to check. The number of times the home broadband fails is ridiculous. I am really looking forward to my contract ending so I can take my business elsewhere.

  • BuNgLe_Ali Bungle (@BuNgLe_Ali) reported

    @virginmedia Pppffftt 2 weeks later I'm still in the same place! Getting no help at all Absolute jokes of a company.

  • LiamInTheSky . (@LiamInTheSky) reported

    @virginmedia Okay, I’ve reset the network settings. It hasn’t fixed the issue, unfortunately. Basing The poor performance on video streaming which I am still having issues with.

  • gokiker Chris (@gokiker) reported

    @virginmedia @leedswba4 I have planned work on Friday and my internet is down today because of engineering work? WTF you guys literally cannot get anything right!

  • MylesOUFC Myles 🇺🇦 (@MylesOUFC) reported

    Another day, another @virginmedia broadband outage…

  • AaronWxlson12 Aaron Wilson (@AaronWxlson12) reported

    @virginmedia It’s a cable connection, yes and it says no outage or work. I don’t know what it is. It just seems to get gradually slower everyday and ping for games is getting higher aswell. It’s on both a PlayStation and Xbox consoles

  • titanic_risen Max (@titanic_risen) reported

    @virginmedia As I mentioned, the issues seem to exclusively be happening in the evening. Our issues yesterday (where we couldn't use the internet at all from 10pm-12am) were after we received the above message, and consistent with the issues we were getting befoehand
