    @virginmedia Media service. It was an automated call reportedly from BT saying about dubious usage of our up address so we would lose internet in 24 hours press 1. I did not do that just hung up and messaged you.

    @virginmedia when you spend half hour on the phone trying to find out why my broadband has been terrible since removing the tv package, only to be told your phone is either to close or to far away from your router baffles me. Is there a perfect distance I have to stand 😡🤯😡😡

    @virginmedia @Tango_2023 Fix it then how can it take this long its off on off on all the time I'm 100% leaving yous for something else that can stay up

  • jasonkneen Jason Kneen (@jasonkneen) reported

    @HanSolonoid @virginmedia I basically doing what I like to call a "Ronseal" tweet which is to say "Exactly what is says on the tin" In this case what I was saying was "You need to fix this and fast". In other words, I was saying I need them to really fix this problem ASAP. I can draw a diagram?

  • Jb_radley John bradley (@Jb_radley) reported

    @tb_tom89 @backinyerpram @virginmedia My comment about living in the wrong country was to prove my point NO UK isp can guarantee 100% service %100 of the time. So you can't rely on Internet as a life saving service

  • Michael28Robins Michael J Robins (@Michael28Robins) reported

    @virginmedia we have internet again so please don't do nothing so it goes back down

  • Bigxpz Jason (@Bigxpz) reported

    @dekl0l @Igorekcs2 @virginmedia Ye BT solid for me too 1 service issue in 3 years. Not the fastest speeds but stable af.

  • Vicky_6780 Vicky 💜 (@Vicky_6780) reported

    I need #virginmedia to hurry up and fix their problems-I can’t watch anything without WiFi!

  • famaxi73 MASSIMILIANO SORTOLANO 🇮🇹🇬🇧 (@famaxi73) reported

    @virginmedia You should give a discount automatically when a problem shows up!!!

  • realvinchenski Samuel Vincent Jones (@realvinchenski) reported

    @jasonkneen @hffhhggffgh @virginmedia I wonder if that's correct. May be worth checking with Virgins policies. Out of curiosity, why don't you change provider if you have this many issues?

  • GaryArnott Gary Arnott (@GaryArnott) reported

    @hellofthedevil @AmigaBoing Hope so Tommy, I know lots of people have been affected by this #virginmedia outage. It's caused our family huge upset due to our circumstances & I'm frustrated I didn't perceive an occasion where I'd be let down like that, wishing I had an alternative service provider available.

  • Jb_radley John bradley (@Jb_radley) reported

    @tb_tom89 @backinyerpram @virginmedia My point is if something is life or death you cannot rely on just 1 thing. You have backups and your backups have backups. Yes virgin have had an issue today but there is nothing that a few hours without Internet can cause a life threatening situation.
