    @virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

    @Damien_Clyburn @virginmedia They're appalling. I've had business version for 10 years. BT never miss a beat. Outstanding. Get rid of them.

    @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

  • iamscorchy

    Hey, ‘RP,’ again, @virginmedia is down. The lack of resilience is shocking and embarrassing for a major broadband provider. #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?

  • ________Danny
    Satish Danny Paul (@________Danny) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone

  • vickiferris
    Vicky Leigh (@vickiferris) reported

    @virginmedia you told me there was an issue with my 360 tv box and said would send me a replacement. You sent me a stream box that doesn't record tv and not what I pay for or want.... and no one answers the phone

    FootballCricketMad (@fcmad1960) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there, my problems are still unresolved and even your "Resolutions" team is blanking me. I need confirmation that we're at the end of the road so I can go to the regulator. How can I get this pls?

  • louderry
    Lou D🌹 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@louderry) reported

    @virginmedia no Internet for 2 days saying won't be fixed until Friday, I thought southern water was the worst, you've proved me wrong.

  • Mikefromtheuk
    Mike (@Mikefromtheuk) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They are truly terrible. If you simply want an internet connection and you don't have any problems, you might be okay, but as soon as anything goes wrong you hit their awful customer service. I had intermittent problems and it took months to get resolved, I then went to Sky asap.

  • IanLythgoe4
    Ian Lythgoe (@IanLythgoe4) reported

    @_kerryking_ @AndrewPittman2 @virginmedia Mine has just been fixed if you have a splitter (big white box) check the power plug there should be a green light on it if not thats the problem (which i had) if you dont have a splitter box i aint got a clue

  • LongshanksE10
    Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported

    @virginmedia Hey I was told earlier by customer services on IM that an engineer will come to fix or replace my WiFi hub on Friday, but I haven’t received any email or text confirmation. Will one be forthcoming?

    @virginmedia i don’t have account , your so bad i paid up early, my post is redirected , you haven’t sent a box . just post the ******* address

  • katesonly
    We need Restore Britain (@katesonly) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Avoid like the plague, if you move house before your contract is up & they don’t supply their service in your new area, they expect you to keep paying for receiving nothing, often 18 - 24 month contracts & they don’t make this clear. Sketchy service with sketchy coverage
