    @virginmedia TV/Broadband issues again! WN2

  • whitealbo martin (@whitealbo) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia I emailed you a few days ago regarding an issue I have,I've not had any reply yet and I'm getting only half the service I signed up and am paying for.

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

    @virginmedia It just says it looks like I can’t get on the internet and it recommends an engineer to come out. On the FOURTH OF JANUARY. During a pandemic when I’m working from home. I left @virginmedia because your service kept dropping, some things never change.

  • Scraggmeister Mark Spencer-Scragg (@Scraggmeister) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Ok. Thanks for this suggestion. I have posted something on the ‘Community Forum’, but you’re my service provider. Why can’t you sort out my Broadband speed issue? I’m paying for something I’m not receiving. #baffled #gettingannoyednow

  • PammyVegas21 Pamela Lavell (@PammyVegas21) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I was going to go to a better provider but was assured that the price was guaranteed until May 2021. You have broken the terms of the contract AGAIN. How many mature citizens who aren’t as computer savvy get ripped off by you? How is this being allowed to happen? Shame on you

  • mattwood1702 Matt Attwood (@mattwood1702) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia trying to work from home and it goes off, check online & network maintenance. Why cant you notify us to let us know doing maintenance. Communication company but cant tell customers what's going on 😡😡

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia You are not listening. I understand it fluctuates. What I mean is why have I had an acceptable 300meg signal for 11 months & now it’s dropped to below half that? 4 phone calls & two technician visits can’t sort it???? I want what I had!

  • AngWaterhouse Angela Waterhouse (@AngWaterhouse) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia I can’t get through by phone-landline or mobile. Are all your phone lines down? #virginmediadown

  • Juliefundraiser Julie Lawson (@Juliefundraiser) reported from Seaforth, England

    Well done @virginmedia customer service at its worse. Rang to get help to open ports to get RING bell/video working argumentative staff parting shot pay us £20 and £5 per month we’ll sort your problem. You are a joke

  • Allenwalkden Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    .@virginmedia it's Christmas Eve and your crappy internet is down again, can't stream any films, been shocking service all year

  • NealJFletcher Neal Fletcher (@NealJFletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No, the picture still looks like I’m watching TV on a cheese grater. Looking at a few threads on your forum this isn’t a new issue either, customers have been experiencing this for well over a year. How’s about I stop paying for the TV part of the package until it’s sorted??

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

    @virginmedia I had a problem a few weeks back and couldn’t get through to you because of the queues, I expect it’s the same now. I should learn my lesson and move to another provider I think.

  • Shinpad11 Mackie 🇪🇺🌹☘️🇸🇱 (@Shinpad11) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia yet another day blighted with intermittent connection. What on earth is happening with your broadband service? Woeful. #Wigan

  • emmawinstanley1 emma2511 (@emmawinstanley1) reported from Aspull, England

    @virginmedia finding it very difficult to get through to someone to discuss technical support please help

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The technician came on Wednesday & did a wired connection test. We are only getting 180meg which is terrible considering we are paying for 300meg! My children can’t get a signal at all whereas they were fine before! Two visits and still not resolved!

  • Scraggmeister Mark Spencer-Scragg (@Scraggmeister) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Morning. If you’re still here for me, Broadband speed still only (max) 120mbs. Still paying for 350mbs & I’ve factory reset my hub twice. Can you help please? Thanks.

  • NealJFletcher Neal Fletcher (@NealJFletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Nope, no outages. It’s been the same for days now. As I say, it seems a common issue with your customers and has been for well over a year

  • peter0raw Peter Rawcliffe (@peter0raw) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve been on the phone for nearly an hour for the 3rd time this weekend. Can someone get in touch ASAP as my TiVo box has stopped working. I’ve tried all online support and cannot get through to anyone. Very frustrating!!!

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Ggod Afternoon I have been unable to contact you, having problems with the TiVo box all other equipment is working, the screen is pixelating not getters picture properly, done everything how can I get in touch using on line chat ?

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

    Sigh. Yet another @virginmedia broadband issue where it’s gone down. Again. Feels like this is a monthly thing now.

    @virginmedia Really? I know there is no issues.. now. It's now hours after the fact, the forum would take too long and doesn't seem to have a section for routing and traffic issues. May I recommend in future you respond to the question once you understand it or have a response that's useful.

  • dariuspourhana Darius Pourhana (@dariuspourhana) reported

    @virginmedia my internet is down. Tell me a free of charge number to call your customer services please? As the one online is a 0345 scam.

  • daviesbrooklea Paul Davies (@daviesbrooklea) reported

    @virginmedia Issue will be resolved by 18.00

  • jacquishawley Jacqui Shawley (@jacquishawley) reported

    @virginmedia Absolutely NOTHING was done or offered when I phoned. The CS rep was rude and uninterested. He( yes it was a he) offered no assistance, no apology just kept saying the account was closed.

  • ZeeBartels Bartels (@ZeeBartels) reported

  • rattled158 Daniel (@rattled158) reported

    @virginmedia absolute shambles of a company waited 6 weeks to get a 68 year old lady connected to the internet for them to cancel 3 times the night before a technician was about to come and install the equipment

  • matt_1207 Matt Stevens (@matt_1207) reported

    @virginmedia Only reported TV issues but my Dad is with Sky for his TV. No known Broadband issues in his area. Any ways to check his end or troubleshoot please?
