@virginmedia internet is down in RG30 (router is white but no internet). Checked on mobile I’m not the only one experiencing problems in the area.

@virginmedia And yes I called to your outage number, apparently there is no known issue in the area. Even though last night at 11.30pm in the app the status check showed every service is down, even though they weren't down last night. This happens only during working hours.

Really hard to support brand @virginmedia and recommend them to anyone for Broadband. They may be the only competitor to BT but do you have to compete for last place?

@virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!

@virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

@virginmedia how do I check my virgin status if the status page doesn't work? Is there an outage in GU21 area?

Took out an @O2 account as part of some 'volt' deal with @virginmedia. My god O2 are bad. Apparently you have to wait a few months to access your account online to wait until their systems "catch up" for new joiners. Shouldn't have bothered.

@virginmedia all week had total Broadband outages and down again now (past hour). Received a text from VM with link to follow (self help) and guess what, I need Internet to access! Trying to WFH just impossible. Every hour we have issues.

@virginmedia @LudaLukeUK That webpage isn't working. Presumably because your network is down!

@shanejunkin @garrethmcdaid @IrishTimes Great to see she managed to get a haircut despite wanting everything shut down for longer. I guess the tv appearances demand it. She doesn’t have the commitment of the bould Gerry Killeen who rocked onto Virgin Media wearing a mask

(@SophieSumerReed) reported
@virginmedia She advised that I reply to (no reply) email address that my order confirmation came from to ask them for help, not sure how that would help? :( It just seemed like she didn’t care + she didn’t know anything about how the process from ordering the wifi to receiving the wifi works

@virginmedia Yes it was 2am for it to be fixed.. But hurrah it's back working.. Just as well we never missed any goals in the lost viewing of the first half. Virgin media 👎👎👎

@virginmedia Also, if you read the tweets, and look at the images, it’s painfully clear. You ignored me for 4 months, meaning I had to seek outside help, and then your company lied in order for the issue to be resolved.

@virginmedia Hi, I'm not sure if it's the new routers that have been brought out, but since we had this new one, the internet seems to be alot less reliable, wifi dropping off alot lot more, plus full signal and still is slow to open browsers sometimes, dunno if this issue is widespread.

@ravimotha @carlcod_es @virginmedia Virgin charge way too much for what you get. I've never had any uptime issues with them tho. It's just the price that needs improvement.

@virginmedia EVERY NIGHT out wifi goes down and means we can't watch recorded programmes on the extra box we are paying for! Has been going on for weeks. You are a joke!!!
