@virginmedia having issues with Wi-Fi at home and your websites including the one on service status checks are not loading? As a result I can’t even report the problem.

It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

@virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia

@virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.

@virginmedia a customer of yours for years. Had a cpi increase letter to say leave with out penalty. Competitor massively cheaper than you for faster speeds. Only to be told by a colleague I have to pay £110 to leave today?

@Cplcash @virginmedia Problem is other providers are so slow at installing fibre cables that most have no choice but to go with VM

@virginmedia It took me best part of a day Friday 24/3/2023 to contact you to cancel my broadband but since I finally managed to you have been contacting me 4 times a day. We have signed a contract with someone else. Please stop harassing us we have cancelled

@virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

Zero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

@virginmedia I'm not kidding, 6/10 times we try to watch a box set or series (Sky One or ITV-based currently) it just says "a problem occurred". Your internet is bulletproof. Your TV services and set top box is so substandard it's unreal!

@virginmedia Been on the phone for 20 mins to try and cancel your awful service. If no one answers in the next 5 will cancel the direct debit, unusable for the peak hours of the evening.

@colinevo @virginmedia I've heard people being offered deals that never land. I have BT coming on 12th even though the speed is not as high. They sell these ultra high speeds but most people don't really need anything near the speed. Like Tesco offering you an extra 60 litres of milk for free each week
