    @virginmedia I spent an hour on my mobile to Virgin today as landline isn't working. Spoke to three different people and, finally they told me it was a hardware issue with my phone, not the line. I have borrowed two phones from neighbours and they don't work either #virginmedia

  • _auralaura_ 💎 ACT 2 (@_auralaura_) reported from Birmingham, England

    Has Virgin Media just gone down for anyone else?

  • _auralaura_ 💎 ACT 2 (@_auralaura_) reported from Birmingham, England

    Virgin Media goes down at least every two weeks. When customers are paying for a service, it should work.

  • Leyjay17 Leyton Jordan (@Leyjay17) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia trying to speak to someone about our constant internet problems ! (B31) On hold and automated messages 🤬🤬 Funny how I got to speak to someone a month ago when I upgraded some services. Product and service still shocking ! 🤬😢

  • Jasonhannon85 Jason Hannon (@Jasonhannon85) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia not sure if you can help my reception on my virgin mobile has dropped out at this time the last 2 days, is there problems in my area? #virginmobile

  • kittykaz13 Caroline (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @GardenCity_Mark @virginmedia Just to let you know Mark, if your mom is considered vulnerable, the law now states that broadband companies must give priority for fixing issues like this, as it’s often their only or main form of communication. Just in case you encounter problems on Friday

  • kittykaz13 Caroline (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes, I did this and it hasn’t reset, the wifi name is coming up the same as well as the guest network I set up, and I can’t access the website for the hub either, it won’t load at all! Ran a test and it says theres a problem and that you’re working on it but not what or how long

  • kieronjconroy Kieron Conroy (@kieronjconroy) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Got my hub3 today.(new customer), Everything all connected but only got got solid Wi-Fi signal and the green flashing light. Checked multiple times over. Tried to talk on live chat and no one replying!

  • ja2xarnie JArnie (@ja2xarnie) reported from Birmingham, England

    We've also had intermittent Internet today. I can't face another hour being kept on hold. Can you expedite a solution to our problems? #virginmedia

  • MadDogMalcs Mad Dog Malcs 🇬🇧 (@MadDogMalcs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Every time I see these adverts I just laugh, but the sad thing is it isn’t funny paying for a service that constantly disconnects, stutters or is generally inconsistent. Your latest ad slogan ‘stay connected’ is a joke, and your email security is archaic, it’s equally laughable.

  • ja2xarnie JArnie (@ja2xarnie) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No issues flagged. Your technical support couldn't find them either. Broadband OK now but no phone line

  • JustinJmsClac Justin James Clack (@JustinJmsClac) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia what is wrong with your broadband lately? Laggy services, **** streaming, **** internet activity? Can you explain please? I tried calling your number to complain but your services are crap there too.

  • Jasonhannon85 Jason Hannon (@Jasonhannon85) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia It’s saying service is fine but I still have no reception so can’t receive calls

  • Sal_P_72 Salvatore Pugliese. (@Sal_P_72) reported

    @virginmedia 4 or 5 months on and off, but lately it's been worse, especially after rain, so that's a good indication of a problem?

  • emma_adkins33 emma adkins (@emma_adkins33) reported

    @virginmedia I don't need help with my services, i cancelled my service as i moved house and you don't serve the area i now live in, i want the money back that you've taken from me for a service i don't have!! About £90 to be precise!!

  • TitterAreTwats Steve Ives (@TitterAreTwats) reported

    @virginmedia It has, but the process is frustrating and long-winded. The call directs you to a website and the website says to call. After texting you the link to the website, there’s silence so you hang up. But if you wait several seconds, only then do you get the option to talk to someone.

  • GMG2FXTrader I_am_GMG2 (@GMG2FXTrader) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, its is not working. Just taking me to the homepage

  • martyn_driver Martyn The Driver (@martyn_driver) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia after 26 years as a loyal cable customer it is time to say goodbye. It would seem that loyalty is not rewarded, and you don't want low use customers

  • SeanMilligan7 Sean Milligan (@SeanMilligan7) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it was the same I don't know why I get such slow service. And why the booster makes it worse

  • londonphotolog Positively blessed (@londonphotolog) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam Internet/broadband is down and Sky broadband services seem to be FAILING their customers the same way that God awful Cable & Wireless firm did before Virgin Media turned it around. Come on Sky - You can do better than this!!

  • dmfleming72 darren fleming (@dmfleming72) reported

    @virginmedia And hang on the line for ever ? I thought it could be done online

  • EmmaJones65 Emjay (@EmmaJones65) reported

    @virginmedia Not on mine I couldn’t I have been checking frequently! Also no option to change so it’s not the case with the app! Very disappointed grateful to Andrew for his help today on the phone

  • PaulLaf54926321 Paul Lafferty (@PaulLaf54926321) reported

    @virginmedia very very disappointed with our upgraded broadband service! And no one at customer service or tech support seem interested in helping ... Upgraded to gigabit on 15/8 since then never got more than 260 speed, min should be 500+, three calls to tech support, useless!
