    @mouthwaite @virginmedia Tamzin, have you asked the school if there is any support available with WiFi? I know my college used done funds to provide dongles with access. Worth asking. A teacher.

    @virginmedia in the past few months in the L23 area your service has been nothing short of shocking…. As someone working from home & needing WiFi to work I’ve recently decided to leave, unfortunately my replacement service can’t be installed in May though. What went wrong?

    @virginmedia I did this multiple times this morning, and tried my Sim in another phone. It looks like I'm starting to get constant 4g now *fingers crossed* but that was 8hours of intermittent service.

    After all the years I've been with you I expect better service than this. You make mistakes and it costs me money. Pathetic @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Very unhappy with you this morning. In the summer I agreed a 12 month contract for a fixed price. In November you increased the price by £4, I complained & got it down to the correct price. Now it's gone back up by £4 and the person I spoke to said he can't reduce it

    @virginmedia Don’t know but a lot of people aren’t very happy with the service, drops out more than it’s in service, maybe a UPD issue on virgins system

    @virginmedia shocking service from you, just been on the phone for over 50 mins trying to sort my shocking internet speed only to be cut off & no call back. Told nothing they can do and your checks show everything is fine. What am I paying £79 for when I’m not getting the service

    Malcolm Roberts (@Drmalrob062) reported from Scunthorpe, England

    @Banksie23Robert Yep, that's was the only response I got, through Twitter! The rest of virgin media comms are down, or waiting queue for 45min plus only to be told "we are aware and our engineers are working on it".

    @virginmedia So all the phone calls we made over this means nothing, surely it will be on record either way and someone should see theres a problem, sounds like we been pasted between another pillar and post.

    @status_is_down Yes, no TV services in North Lanarkshire for 7 hours or so. This is an opportunity for the Mumbai scammers to contact VM customers moaning online and they pretend to be Virgin media. Be careful folks it's happened to me a few times. Never reply to unsolicited messages.
