    @virginmedia not gonna lie. Second night in a row that the router keeps rebooting and the internet keeps cutting out. I can live with that......tomorrow when I have a new cohort of learners to enrol if it’s not working, that’s gonna cause me a huge amount of stress

  • Old_Wathonian Steve Shaw (@Old_Wathonian) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

  • paul_phillips83 Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    Hi @virginmedia just a quick question are you guys going to be having @DisneyPlusUK on you’re service for customers please

  • RockettNeil Neil Rockett (@RockettNeil) reported from Wentworth, England

    Dreadful service from @virginmedia. Internet & TV problems for almost a week now. Completely fed up with being asked to unplug, plug back in again & run the set up process. It doesn’t work! They’re happy to take £70 pm for a poor service but reluctant to send an engineer.

  • badger63 judith badger (@badger63) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia We are dissatisfied with virgin medis. Poor delivery of streaming services and in House wifi. Numerous occasions where service is cut or slow. Please advise how we can improve this

  • MattJHardwick Matthew Hardwick (@MattJHardwick) reported from Dronfield, England

    @rtnapes @virginmedia Have you tried @BenAvery85 I hear he can help....unless of course you are flogging those dewit’s again

  • RockettNeil Neil Rockett (@RockettNeil) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run all the tests & it’s telling me the ethernet cable is unplugged. I’ve never had an Ethernet cable! I can watch tv & record but can’t access on demand or catch up services. It stopped working at 5.59am 27/2. Please send help! Like a real person. I’m getting fed up now...

  • badger63 judith badger (@badger63) reported from Sheffield, England

    Really disappointed with @virginmedia quality of home broadband... insufficient band width...paying a lot of money for really poor service...not good enough ... let's see what @sky can offer

  • iFletch__ 𝓕𝓵𝓮𝓽𝓬𝓱 ™️ (@iFletch__) reported from Killamarsh, England

  • snrefnaj JJ (@snrefnaj) reported

  • RichCass1008 Richard Cassidy (@RichCass1008) reported

    @LutzSchueler #virginmedia is disgraceful, cutting off a recently widowed woman from being able to communicate with the outside world. Words like no problem and have a good day....how insensitive

  • DavidMi25998616 David Middleton (@DavidMi25998616) reported

    @virginmedia Why is it, every time we have an outage, you can never can tell us what it was and what caused it. ie, negligence, substandard parts and equipment or cyber attack?

  • debstergr Debs (@debstergr) reported

    @LeePartridge16 @virginmedia I’m fed up of having issues with my broadband and my tv, when I report it & request someone come out to check it I just keep getting told to turn it off and on again etc. they do a check their end and say it’s ok, no one will actually come out and look at it!!

  • Johnnyboy0707 John (@Johnnyboy0707) reported

    @virginmedia Ye I've already done this and it says no issues in my area, so I can't understand what the issue is and why I'm getting conflicting reports here. This is shocking

  • paulrussell90 Paul Russell (@paulrussell90) reported

    @virginmedia having trouble contacting someone to resolve an issue with my broadband. Would like to cancel now. Can someone get in touch here to help with this?

  • richardloxley Richard Loxley (@richardloxley) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness @virginmedia No, it’s still down. I tried phoning that number - I get disconnected after 30 min on hold. I tried the SMS support service: I’m still waiting for a reply after 25 hours. How can I get this fixed?

  • MidgetsHD1 Tyler Singleton (@MidgetsHD1) reported

    @virginmedia It says you have resolved internet issue but at the moment I can barely run anything without it lagging for freezing when will this be fixed I'm from the Oxfordshire area
