  • PPowellfamily Denise Powell (@PPowellfamily) reported from Barlaston, England

    @virginmedia 2 houses in the same street no Internet or broadband. Your call centre claims the fault to be in my home. #3rd class service

  • Gemgwar Gemma Brayne (@Gemgwar) reported from Armitage with Handsacre, England

    @virginmedia really not impressed with your service. No idea what is going on and when I’m actually getting my broadband. Your team just keep lying to me and it’s frustrating!!

  • jcanlas159 j (@jcanlas159) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia No difference. We do have an engineer booked in but just trying to understand the issue. The router page shows the Broadband reading (Access Denied) errors

  • serenium Serenium (@serenium) reported from Stafford, England

    @williamtm @virginmedia So virgin media don’t support it then. that is not “nothing supports it” Yell at virgin. BT is fine, although they do need to differentiate their treatment of ipv4 vs ipv6 icmp in their default firewall rules

  • serenium Serenium (@serenium) reported from Stafford, England

    @williamtm @virginmedia 1&1, bt, EE, sky, zen and talk talk all support v6 afaik. The ONLY major (by number of subscribers) ISP that doesn’t is virgin. The smallest of the big 4 is talk talk and numbers 5-10 of the top 10 added together are still half the size of talk talk.

  • photo_bloke Mike Hillman (@photo_bloke) reported from Stafford, England

    And now @AmazonUK have managed to join @virginmedia on the list of companies who've managed to p**s me off today with poor service They all seem to forget who pays their bills....

  • photo_bloke Mike Hillman (@photo_bloke) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia (3/3) I'm the customer, and I would like to think you would accommodate my wishes and show me some respect as one of the people who ultimately pay for your profits. I will not, however, be a customer for much longer

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Wheaton Aston, England

    @Appolotech @virginmedia I’ve had really intermittent quality of service with the Virgin BB. Switching to SKY end of month.

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @leicscyberaware @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong The irony here is 3 random words can be broken in as little as 40 seconds, maximum 50 minutes. A 10 character random password, by comparison, would take 7 weeks with the same hardware.

  • khnatter Kate (@khnatter) reported from Newport, England

    @virginmedia Trouble is as I explained, it’s rented accommodation and the rental company have the login and password info and are closed all weekend. Making studying impossible 😠

  • photo_bloke Mike Hillman (@photo_bloke) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia (3/3) I trust that when I call to cancel and switch, the call will be straightforward with no fuss and will be less than 2 minutes with no drawn out attempts to get me to stay

  • 5tu1987 Stuart Hurcombe (@5tu1987) reported from Armitage with Handsacre, England

    @Gemgwar @virginmedia Basically.. nobody knows what the process is! Told we had to wait in ALL DAY yesterday for nobody to come (when we apparently now it’s only a package being delivered) STILL! nobody is clear if it’s a package being delivered or an engineer. Shocking service for what we are paying!

  • Gemgwar Gemma Brayne (@Gemgwar) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia Yes. They have said we will have to wait until WEDNESDAY, so we were lied to again. Shocking service!

  • SketchXZ SketchXZ (@SketchXZ) reported from Burntwood, England

    Sorry stream was cut short @virginmedia decided it was gna go down 🖕 #twitch #internetproblems

  • 5tu1987 Stuart Hurcombe (@5tu1987) reported from Armitage with Handsacre, England

    @virginmedia You mean the number we have used that have fed us countless information that is untrue/impossible to achieve to try and ‘keep us happy’. Also love the identical response to the previous tweet.. Nice template! Hopefully speak to someone in the week who maybe WANTS to help us

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @kinoshitajona @ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Agreed, neither are secure and should never be used... however it's certainly possible to make an unbreakable MD5 password.

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Shifnal, England

    @virginmedia Unreliable & intermittent Broadband, no Sky Atlantic but most importantly very poor customer service as justified by this thread - I’d rather rather speak to a person real time

  • photo_bloke Mike Hillman (@photo_bloke) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia If you really wanted me to stay and you valued me as a customer you would have respected my original request when i was first called and we wouldn't be here now Learn the lessons from this - do what customers ask show them some respect and stop bothering them with unwanted calls

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @leicscyberaware @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong You're right, it's not good enough... but it's not insecure either. I debunked 3 random words years ago. Now *that* is poor advice.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • scottycass88 Scott Cassidy (@scottycass88) reported

    @virginmedia Before we were sold into virgin. We have no wifi at all for our kids to get online school work done now. This issue needs sorting now.

  • it5melee Lee (@it5melee) reported

    @virginmedia I do still need help. All wireless devices in house suddenly stop working until the router is rebooted. I have to do this 4 or 5 times a day which is unacceptable. Wired is fine so I know it’s not the internet service. It’s the router that is the problem.

  • helensvintage helen black (@helensvintage) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson 4 hour conversation and you still can’t help!!! What a **** show of a company!!! I’ve been hacked and yet no one in the company can help!!

  • chrisnparsons Chris Parsons (@chrisnparsons) reported

    @virginmedia The problem now is I spent over half an hour on the phone to finally be told I would be sent a letter to use to complain to @ofcom and that letter has not arrived. That call was on the 21st December.

  • vikkers14 Mark Vicary (@vikkers14) reported

    @virginmedia Is this just an IOS problem as I’m on a surface pro for work and not getting warnings .

  • nandakiranredd Nandakiran Reddy (@nandakiranredd) reported

    @virginmedia Worst WiFi service in the uk they don’t even care about the customers #dontgoforveriginmedia

  • chart_capital Chart Capital (@chart_capital) reported

    @virginmedia we’ve cancelled our contract after a few days. Anyone looking for a broadband company who care about their customers, have a customer service department and some form of management, try @NOWTV - 5 minutes to reinstate internet vs 8 hours of hassle with @virginmedia

  • LimitedFragzVR LimitedFragzVR (@LimitedFragzVR) reported

    @danparker87 @virginmedia my internet with virgin has been playing up alot last week or so i was going to ring them today because its pissing me off tbh i pay monthly dont miss payments and still having issues i restarted my internet

  • X49841880 X (@X49841880) reported

    @virginmedia @Twitter Let this company get away with this criminal behaviour. I think they decided one morning that they wanted to pretend to be #gangsters and try to #extort me. It’s not fair of you to treat me like a spam account just for showing what these #criminals are up to

  • danparker87 Dan Parker (@danparker87) reported

    @virginmedia No but it’s an intermittent problem which happened before and the had to change a transmitter or something and the guy said if it happens again it will be the same problem
