    @virginmedia phoned last week re my blueyonder email account. I can’t refresh it on my laptop or on my phone. I was told it would be fixed. I’ve tried contacting again to no avail. I understand staff are limited at the mo but would like to know when this issue will be resolved

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia the internet quality has been appalling today, went down including TV for over an hour earlier and now the speeds down at less than 5mb a second!! Please give reasons and a time for fixing!

  • daveshep1 Dave Shep (@daveshep1) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Looks like most of the Broadband is down in B91 - not showing on your website but tests and local feedback from friends/family suggests this is across entire B91 postcode - can you please fix ASAP 👍🏻

  • Mijan93243645 MH (@Mijan93243645) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia In March when I renewed my contract I was having a lot of issues with my WiFi service, when I called person on the phone suggested I need a booster in my house which they he/she can’t remember now said I should get it within few days, then lockdown happened and understandably

  • chrisgdack Chris Dack (@chrisgdack) reported from Solihull, England

    Experiencing a major @virginmedia outage! Managing a WebEx class via phone 😉 #wontbebbeaten

  • isamutlib Isa #StayHomeSaveLives (@isamutlib) reported from Birmingham, England

    It's actually tragic how bad @virginmedia broadband has gotten over the last few days. Hope we are refunded for this period of shocking internet coverage. Still think it's the best service but need to sort out current issues.

  • EmmaJCasey Emma Casey (@EmmaJCasey) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia sort out the damn WiFi - so many people pay ALOT for your terrible service & here I am (and many others) using my data from @ThreeUK 🤯 #sortitout #virginmediadown #whatarewepayingfor

    @virginmedia internet is down in Solihull and apparently across the West Mids...please sort this out ASAP!

  • Mijan93243645 MH (@Mijan93243645) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia It was hard to contact you to follow up, I tried many ways but was getting no where as everything seemed to be on automated, however again in April I was having more issues and it got to a point I went on Twitter and someone responded with a text service but again like always

  • daveshep1 Dave Shep (@daveshep1) reported from Solihull, England

    Wow...!! This appears to be B90, B91 & B92 - @virginmedia you need to get this fixed ASAP - this is no doubt human error to cause issues at this scale - either that or you need some help with your network topology - let me know 😉

  • Mijan93243645 MH (@Mijan93243645) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia I’m not paying the full amount for April and may, until you revie my bill for not getting my full service and I don’t receive my booster I am not paying a single penny, and I’m not contacting anyone. You sort it. DM if you want my account details

  • daveshep1 Dave Shep (@daveshep1) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia @grimegran Bad timing @virginmedia marketing given your Broadband is down across most of Solihull 😔😔

  • WadrupR Rob Wadrup (@WadrupR) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia once again my broadband and tv are not working I’m paying a full package for this and even sky sports with nothing on. How many times this month alone.

  • NearLegalJones H (@NearLegalJones) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Hi. After regularly berating one of your business rivals ref broadband I’m disappointed to be now asking you how to make a (polite) written complaint about an installation at my home. I think you have a staff training issue.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    Have to say your internet & TV have been awful can't get anything again your call centre cut me off after 57 minutes of waiting! @virginmedia

    @virginmedia But we are in desperate need of our wifi to work. The customer service and resolutions I have received from virgin are simply not good enough from a huge company like yourselves.

  • decjpm Dec M (@decjpm) reported

    @VirginMediaIE why would virgin media TV show santa claus the movie on Christmas day rather than Christmas eve. What idiot does programme planning???

  • KeeleyOF101 Keeley O'Flaherty (@KeeleyOF101) reported

    @virginmedia She has been left until Tuesday with her neighbours telephone line ( which has caused great upset, due to it being linked to alarm) tv still not working you would think they would check before leaving. Both cancer Sufferers and shielding.

  • rhino14 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Ryan Sullivan (@rhino14) reported

    @virginmedia are getting worse, now trying to charge fines for not paying bills, when for 15 years we’ve used the same DD, the. When I finally get to speak to someone she spends all the time transferring me to “someone that can help”. I’ll be taking my services elsewhere. Soon.

  • paulredders Paul Redmond (@paulredders) reported

  • tovarich_yoshi hot topic liberation front (htlf) (@tovarich_yoshi) reported

    @virginmedia stranded my wife with no phone service because they keep screwing up our billing. like i get it, kids and their phones and all, but maybe don't demand direct debit if you're gonna keep cancelling it on us

  • marshy313 guy marsh (@marshy313) reported

    @virginmedia No issues locally .. still intermittent at best ... SG6 3JR 25 Cloisters Road

  • Ladyserendipidy Roma Felstein (@Ladyserendipidy) reported

    Virgin media steer clear. Over zealous sales miss sold and still no signal

  • ozzywasp Andy Osborne (@ozzywasp) reported

    @virginmedia I haven’t lodged a formal complaint, but asked your call centre team to ask for the area manager to call me, but so far I’ve not heard anything! As you say, complaining isn’t going to speed things up, so I can’t see the point as the main issue is not being connected already

  • country_jim Mrs Tweedy soup (@country_jim) reported

    Discovered last night that if you've recorded something on your tivo through @virginmedia and you no longer have access to the channel you recorded it from then you can't watch it any more and honestly that's pretty ****, isn't it?
