    @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 awful CS from yourselves. Mis information given regarding cancellation and your refusal to honour it. Hung up on several time as well!

    @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.

    @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

    @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 I only have broadband. Can't get a signal on mobile. I am just fed up of the constant price rises £3.50 each year, we have been with you since it was NTL never had another internet provider, feel that loyal customers are taken for a ride.

    @si1774 @DanRob86 @virginmedia No mate it's owned by Liberty Global which is why it goes up every year and the service gets worse. Mind you he takes a cut for using his name.

  • ExpanseCon
    Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported

    @MikeScheider_ Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.

    @virginmedia no tv or broadband all day in WD5 area. Called customer services who told us it would be fixed at 2:30am. That’s not good enough. Please can someone contact us to let us know how to get online sooner?

    Krystle (@vdaybabygirl85) reported

    @virginmedia - I had serious connection issues. Complaints team got in touch and thought it was resolved. But it's not. The issues are STILL ongoing and as for the last 8 weeks or so I'm struggling with intermittent service. I want the fixed. I'm sick and tired of it now

    Just spent best part of day trying to sort out issues with @British_Airways & @virginmedia Both seem to be competing for ‘Worst Customer Service’ award although BA winning because I’m at least speaking more or less real time with a human at VM, albeit making little progress!

    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 35 of absolutely no services from @virginmedia and no useful information about when/if the outage in our area will ever get fixed. Let’s hope that @guardian Consumer Champions will look into this - I’ve just written to them. @Ofcom
