  • WesBooth Wes Booth (@WesBooth) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @jazzyjen1986 @virginmedia BT went down Jenna but watching via something else

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    I've had an unstable to non-working @virginmedia broadband connection in Manchester for about 18 hours. Whilst they are aware of the issue and trying to resolve it, it is untenable that in the era of working from home, a major infrastructure requirement will be down for 24 hours.

  • forakin Akin Akíntáyọ̀ 🏳️‍🌈 #European (@forakin) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The estimated resolution time according to the Service Status page is 21:05 today. Meanwhile, I have to run a support and test network on mobile phone tethering.

  • IamNickRoper Nick Roper (@IamNickRoper) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia hey guys. My loyalty discount was due for renewal and was told to ring in when due now I’m being told different. Wtf?! Then to be told you don’t have a complaints team either. That’s some wedge of bullshit and appalling customer service! Come on now

  • DavidMcleish11 David Mcleish (@DavidMcleish11) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia I want to speak to someone about what the charges are. I’ve used your live chat but no one can tell me. Seems poor when I would stay with you but you don’t supply my new flat

  • ZakFarren Zak (@ZakFarren) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I don't have any direct wired connection but my TP link powerline connection seems to be working better now with speeds and gameplay. However, I imagine once high load resumes in the evening it will be terrible again. Feels like we're being heavily throttled during the evening

  • ZakFarren Zak (@ZakFarren) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia as of about 2 days ago the latency on our internet has been awful (150ms in most online games) plus it seems the speed it's self has dropped significantly too, about half of what it used to be on all devices. Have restarted and factory reset and still broken

  • Ryan_Nixon11 Nixon (@Ryan_Nixon11) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Ok thank you and in the meantime I'll have to look elsewhere so I am able to watch BT Sport today because Virgin Media can't provide the service I'd like

  • ggfeb62 geoff george (@ggfeb62) reported from Oldham, England

    @BalvinderTV @virginmedia Wait for the price hike ..... Coming soon. I hope you get them to reduce your payment for no service ☹😖😤 Good luck👍🏾

  • geordiemanc70 GeordieManc (@geordiemanc70) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia Get your "resolution team" to actually read their emails and try resolving something?

  • JanineB66963873 Janine Brennan (@JanineB66963873) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia down again, line fault since Nov. Internet cuts off between 12/1am every night! Was told it was line check, this morning told I need all new equipment, £151 bills aren't acceptable for this service. I don't want new equipment months on, I'm cancelling.

  • geordiemanc70 GeordieManc (@geordiemanc70) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia Diabolical customer service.

  • Poetech3 Poe{t}ech (@Poetech3) reported from Bollington, England

    @virginmedia I have got through only twice on tel - was told to email as I want to close the account after moving house. Service at old address not been used for over 3 months now. No one replies to the emails.

  • WesBooth Wes Booth (@WesBooth) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia We're not prepared to spend hours on webchat we've wasted enough time this week on the phone and webchat and the tv service is still not working! Awful customer service and we are paying £££££ for a service we can't get!!!

    Goddamn it, @virginmedia. What’s the point of paying for your broadband? It’s been down for 3 days now and you’ve offered zero help.

  • eztigrrrr toby english (@eztigrrrr) reported

    @virginmedia now been waiting on the phone to speak with someone for 45 minutes to sort out wifi. Tried web chat twice - no reply. Went with Virgin as promised better wifi than Sky but after 6 months of continual drops, intermittent service, i might go back!

  • Sam_Rigg1 Sam (@Sam_Rigg1) reported

    @virginmedia @Whatsunnn_ Hi there, I can confirm that I have tested on both wired and wireless devices and the speeds are similarly poor. I am subscribed to the M100 fibre plan and the speeds are below 5mbps for at least 8 hours each day (this has been going on for months).
