Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England
@virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England
@virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.
-
#AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England
The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England
@virginmedia Can someone advise how I fix the Wi-Fi pod which isn’t working with my new router - I had to upgrade at extra cost to receive new kit as the lead time was shorter than getting a competitor in #ThisIsWrong

@virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

@TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines
-
Dr Jan Evelyn-Wilson (@WilsonJevelyn) reported from London, England
@VirginMedia wi-fi just cut out AGAIN! Annoying when one is in the middle of something. WHY!
-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England
@ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known
-
Alex (@ameehan71) reported from Bromley, England
@_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.
-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England
So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

@virginmedia It’s arranged (3rd time) for engineer visit tomorrow 4-7pm…. I just hope they don’t randomly cancel again

@virginmedia Green up/down arrow flashing and router restarting

Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England
@virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

@virginmedia All these problems. But still fleecing money from us.

Shah 🦅 (@shah4569) reported from London, England
@virginmedia bring back customer service to the UK. Philippines is a joke!

Carol Dover (@CarolB29041964) reported from Stifford, England
Just how **** are Virgin Media...my email was down for two evenings and probably the days as well earlier in the week, and now it's down again. Virgin Media i need to access my emails....this level of service is unacceptable. I'm paying for this crap service! @virginmedia
-
Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England
@virginmedia @LeePartridge16 A particularly poor explanation. What you really mea n is that you only offer attractive prices to grab new customers but have little regard for customer loyalty. That's why I left @virginmedia too
-
Mark 🌈🏳️🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England
@virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected

@AmandaSeager @virginmedia Same in Central London, my Company uses Virgin and we have had issues all day long

Phil Halshaw (@Phil0266) reported
@virginmedia Hi @virginmedia it is now over 2 days since I have been unable to login in to my virgin media account or access Sky Sports via the Sky Sports App or via internet. When will this be fixed and where is the communication explaining the fault.

Tim Abell (@tim_abell) reported
@virginmedia how ******** do you speak to a human at virgin media? The phone system is completely impenetrable. #CustomerDisservice
-
SAYes Keith (@Keith_965) reported
@virginmedia - email service and login still down since 1100 on 14th. Been on cable here 31 years and more than 10 with Virgin Media - hit a low point. Please resolve.
-
James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported
@virginmedia It's a joke though, we pay for a service and it doesn't even run properly. I'd love to say it's only a one off scenario, but it's happened more this year than others. I'd swap provider if I could but Sky in this area just doesn't reach the same level as you when working.
-
James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported
@virginmedia a little unhappy that my Virgin Media services have been down from around 0730 this morning and it shows it's not going to be resolved till tomorrow afternoon. My postcode is TW19 7HY. A little unhappy as we've been unable to use services we pay for due to WiFi.
-
Adam Damarell (@ExN_SKRT) reported
@virginmedia 4 times in 6 days that both broadband and Tv have been down for extended periods of time. What on earth is going on at Virgin media? Happy to take my £70+ a month, will be claiming compensation.
-
Lorna Willins (@LornieWillins) reported
@virginmedia please answer your phone I need help with my virgin media app

Gary Mortland (@gary_mortland) reported
@virginmedia Virgin media broadband is useless. I’ve been without service since Saturday and still not sorted🙈

Yorkshire Sherpa (@Farke_In_El) reported
@virginmedia I'm specifically talking about the SkySports app being down?
