Wondering if @virginmedia can explain the service outage I've had in NE21 for the last 3 hours? Having to watch #NFLRedZone on my phone

@nowtgoodtosay @virginmedia And every bad experience you have, they make sure the next one is worse. Like a competition!

Never ceases to amaze how poor @virginmedia is. Successive errors including appalling dropping out broadband. Now transferring to BT today and they stop internet last night despite specifically saying I wanted no gap in service. Glad to leave after 23 years.

@virginmedia Nice adverts for your content, shame my recorded delivery complaint about my issue originating in MARCH (after three failed online submissions and pointless texts) has still not been acknowledged,been ignored,treating a customer as a piece of 💩 way to go 👏🏻

@DonBaldini @virginmedia Not good enough VM, I’m paying you nearly £1000 a year for absolutely terrible service. Other providers exist ...!

Can anyone at @virginmedia virgin media tell me why the internet drops out every time it rains? The technicians only want to diagnose a fault on the line to the house and they never seem to be out when it's also raining. It's very frustrating.

@virginmedia terrible terrible service, I renewed my broadband after being hung up twice, thought it was resolved to find I’m being overcharged. And to add to that my internet is consistently dropping out, rung today to fix broadband issues to be told they can’t look into it.

Hi @virginmedia - I've had intermittent TiVo issues all morning with crashes & restarts. Your website is down so can't test our kit or report issues. Any advice? (Yes, I've turned it off/wait/on & tried unplugging.)

@PyrionFlax @virginmedia I've been having problems with my internet for months, once I phoned up and threatened to cancel it all it suddenly got better... I'm sure they do it on purpose hoping people don't notice

@MichaelDow16 @virginmedia No I think it’s a wider issue, which is reassuring but no less irritating and inconvenient! Good luck 🤞🏽

@virginmedia Hi, please can you advise what the problem is with wifi in Darlington & how long it will take to fix. I’m struggling to do my work from home cos of the interruption - thanks

@virginmedia The service status line doesn't work for me - our house phone is a mobile number, which it won't accept, and I can't find the account number because we get ebills and they go to my partner. It is down for both at our house though.

(@kingosticks) reported
@virginmedia I did that last week and they have not called me. I've said this twice already... But I'll try that again, then I'll give up. I'd use the cooling off period to cancel this if I had any other provider choice. I miss @HyperopticCS where it never went down and CS actually helped.

(@FTMatty) reported
Looks like @virginmedia have got massive issues. Not broadband/TV and even their own systems have failed so they can't tell me what's wrong. I smell failed planned work or cyber attack.
