    @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 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.

    @virginmedia It was mobile phone signal, it's been intermittent all morning. Currently I have 4g, but it's been fluctuating from no signal to 4g and back.

    @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.

    @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

    @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".

    CheekyLion :O (@acheekylion) reported from Scunthorpe, England

    @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 @fanboyofnolan Yes, absolutely they do **** all even if you can actually get you speak to a person. Which is near impossible. Very bad company if you cancel your contract they call you in about 10 minutes 🤑🤑🤑🤑

    @virginmedia The worse broadband company ever. I’ve been a customer for nearly 10 years and just lately the broadband is shocking. It looks like I’ll be going to a new company and never coming back to virgin.

    @virginmedia I need some help resolving an unauthorised account creation, outstanding unlawful charges and failure to resolve despite numerous calls and written correspondence dating back to October 2025. What number can I call to speak to someone with authority to end this??

    Kevin Clark (@kevinclarknw) reported

    @virginmedia Not good enough, I'm afraid. This is just the latest outage in recent weeks. The siuation appears to be getting worse, not better. We are paying for a service you are not providing and incurring additional costs through being unable to work from home.
