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

  @virginmedia Experiencing issues in your area there is a technician in the area but still doesn't explain why my routers fans go really loud and disconnected from everything I have to keep resetting to get it back to normal then on top get "issues in my area" like always

  @virginmedia Think we need to call an engineer out anyways, before the outage I was only getting 600mbps max when my package is the 1Gig.

  @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

  Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported 27 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  Causing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

  Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported 29 minutes ago from Solihull, England

  The problem in my area B37 has been happening for over a week can’t watch any TV now @virginmedia over £100 a month!! Plus I’ve been waiting 2 years for an internet booster

  Andy (@a_Muss60) reported 40 minutes ago from Swindon, England

  @matt_hanson70 @virginmedia Intermittent for 2.5 days, Sunday always v poor the worst is 0.4mbs with a 250mbs supply. VM's script always saying reboot etc.. Funny though following reporting an issue a week ago I suddenly recorded 256mbs for an hour then it slowly drops to normal! First ever hitting supply.

• 
  Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported 41 minutes ago from Himley, England

  @virginmedia The status checker says intermittent signal in your area. It's disgusting with how much I pay for broadband.

  hayley chapman (@haychapperz) reported 44 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.

• 
  Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported 48 minutes ago from Swindon, England

  @virginmedia No , when I last spoke to someone on the phone the issue was still happening , it doesn’t happen as much now but still happens at least once a day

  Alex (@laticwolf) reported 50 minutes ago from Bradmore, England

  @virginmedia good work 👏🏼 issues with WiFi being down constantly as soon as £7.50 monthly bill increases comes in! Currently on hour 5 of no internet and not due to be fixed before 1am 🙃

  Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported 54 minutes ago from Swindon, England

  @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.

• 
  Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported 57 minutes ago from Dudley, England

  @virginmedia I’m currently on hold. My mum is in her 70’s and waited in for an engineer only for them to send a text 10mins before to say you were coming in the 26th. The original appointment was the 21st and her TV service has been down for well over a week.

  Ryan Sheppard (@Sheppo1874) reported 3 minutes ago

  @alisonclay71 @virginmedia They’re the worst. I was a customer for over 10 years and moved house recently. They refused to move the service to my new house. Incredibly poor service. Also, be prepared for them to chase you constantly to return their kit or they’ll charge you for it!

  @virginmedia the broadband is worst on a Sunday I’ve noticed ,I’m working in the week

• 
  ClassicKatyy ✌️ (@ClassicKatyy) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @PaulMcDade7 All your self service checker tells me is it can't connect to the kit in my house, because there's no internet. What's the ETA on a fix?

• 
  Lord Fauntleroy MP KC (@FauntleroyMp) reported 8 minutes ago

  @Mickskinz @DavidPNoble63 They will enforce it with isp's quite easily. Just fine virgin media if they fail to act on frequent ip address switching

  Carrie Walsh (@carrie_walsh_) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia hi our wifi has been intermittent and slow all week and is now once again not working. Can't even get on to your website. Seems to be local to SE27 as my neighbours also have the same problem. Can we please get this fixed?

• 
  Gloucester Glass (@gloucesterglass) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Yes, it said issues with broadband and tv, but it’s been 3 consecutive days now. Plus like I said I can’t get mobile signal and I don’t live in the middle of nowhere so dependent on wifi calls unfortunately.

  @RichardLXXII @virginmedia so basically you go **** yourself and rub the bill over ur ******* cause they don't care XD

  Bec (@LeB00) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia An engineer was booked to attend today and yet again they have not turned up. This is the 6th appointment where no engineer has turned up. A complaint was raised on the 7th Jun and still hasn’t beeen acknowledged within the 48hrs inline with your own policy.

  aldo (@ukaldo2) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia The service has now been maintained but on us to ensure that's the case. You shouldn't have had one of your sales reps pressure my mother night after night without checking a service could be provided within your budget
