    @virginmedia Rebooted my phone earlier, no effect. Not actually had to call or text anyone today, but my signal icon has said 'Emergency Calls Only' all day. I'll definitely check that signal strength link though, thanks.

  • bromley001
    Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No, everything on there is telling me 'very good'. But! Ironically, during this very exchange, my signal has popped up (although it's now not as strong as when I started writing this Tweet). Looks like me looking at the website has scared it into working. :D

    @virginmedia I didn't realise when I negotiated a deal I'd be automatically entitled to no compensation and rubbish customer services. Lesson learnt.

  • crawfordjane74
    Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....I just want to cancel Premier Sports. The guy who answered after 30 mins was polite but your system crashed twice. Not sure it's been cancelled and don't have another spare 30 mins to call again

  • NickNwarhurst
    Nick Warhurst (@NickNwarhurst) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia the company that’s only looks after new customers, not long serving ones. Me: paying £34 for vivid100. New customers £29 or £34 for vivid200. VM customer services, well you can have vivid200 for only £54. 😳🤬

  • crawfordjane74
    Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....it's about time that you had a service where you cancel part of your package via your TV.....30 mins on hold isn't funny😡

  • JaseCritchley
    Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia Yes, dispite your Call Centre saying no area issues your status page says otherwise. Fix at 10pm. Lost all services not just internet.

    Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It's the same place & situation as yesterday, and, once again, after a few hours of no signal, once I actually Tweet about it, it suddenly reappears! No worries here now, ta.

    @virginmedia Internet down twice in a day?? Getting kinda silly now

    point3456 (@point34561) reported

    @virginmedia @CarersUK Stop using charity as cheap PR and hire some real support staff to help the country who are working from home. This is gross to small business if you have any Internet problems. Expect to pay out of contract, lied to and face total incomptenence. #virginmedia @richardbranson
