    @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.

  • cockertron Dan Cocker (@cockertron) reported

    @virginmedia I’m afraid it is down on both, yes. It was working fine last night but not since we woke up this morning. Weirdly the wifi icon says we have three bars but it’s definitely not working.

  • ShenzDrumz Shenz (@ShenzDrumz) reported

    So my wifi is down and @virginmedia line isn’t even working. Forever pissed off with this wifi kmt

  • gracegracegra prettier jesus (@gracegracegra) reported

    dude virgin media is the worst company in the whole entire world

  • StollerMia Mia (@StollerMia) reported

    @virginmedia No estimated time for this to he rectified. And this does not explain why my home WiFi has been problematic for months. Given that for £21 p/m I have unlimited 5G data I am considering just cancelling the DD to Virgin as they have failed to provide me with the service I pay for.

  • StollerMia Mia (@StollerMia) reported

    @virginmedia So in summary, I had no luck on the chat, I'm using my phone for data, I've got no response on the phone and I've lost three working hours. And the best Virgin can do is tell me to 'wait on hold'. I just did this and got cut off once connected. This is best customer support?

  • Brimson1 David Brimson (@Brimson1) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. But apparently it's your end. I can't get any emails on 3 separate devices. Your webmail isn't working either. Apparently I believe it's an IMAP issue your end.

  • BenzyPlayz345 Ben :) (@BenzyPlayz345) reported

    @virginmedia Can you fix your WiFi please! Having to use hotspot to type this

  • Yellow_Taill Lewis! (@Yellow_Taill) reported

    @virginmedia So the internet was down for a whole day and no notes were taken as to why?!?!?!?

  • PhotoMadeSimple Phil Hibberd (@PhotoMadeSimple) reported

    @virginmedia Despite endless threatening letters we are finding it impossible to pay VM using the power of attorney we have set up for my partner's dad who has dementia. Appalling customer service as usual from VW.

  • JinkxItUp JinkxItUp (@JinkxItUp) reported

    Today I found out that if you contact Virgin Media about anything sales related, they call you twice a day for 21 days to follow up and try to sell you ****. Even if you ignore them. What ********?! I blocked the number so they started emailing me and texting me too. It's vile.
