    @virginmedia We need this sorting, as there are 3 of us working from home, involving video meetings. How do we get in touch with you to sort our services out? Our TIVo box is also slow to respond and on-demand isn’t working, due to internet problems. Help. Now. Please.

  • HollySquirrel Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia My husband has been unable to contact anyone at customer service. It seems our router has an intermittent fault. Please advise ASAP. My husband is a key worker (electricity generation), having a stable internet connection, is essential. 2/2

  • OutdoorDaveGB David Bruton (@OutdoorDaveGB) reported from Reading, England

    @PhelanHill @bt_uk @virginmedia If it works it's brilliant but if it doesn't @virginmedia 's Customer Service is woeful in my experience (and @GBRChris_A 's) Currently even with all the people working at home it is good @ 200 Mbps !

    What’s wrong with Virgin Media? Unable to access my emails for several days now. Virgin say they’re working on it but the problem’s still not sorted. Is anyone else suffering this acute inconvenience?

    @8252Hazel @virginmedia Seems to be down across the country and no response from @virginmedia at all

  • WilberforceB WillB (@WilberforceB) reported

    @virginmedia (and apparently other ISPs) went down at 2am and still down. Why no announcement, email or anything on the news?

  • hellohowsit M N (@hellohowsit) reported

    @virginmedia is the Broadband down in OX28, website for outages is down and can't use phone as don't know my memorable word. Working from home with no WiFi

  • B_o_o_e_y Booey (@B_o_o_e_y) reported

    @Wheeliewitty @DjDno @virginmedia They're not even tweeting about it on another network to let us know what's going on. Surely they could let us know, or perform some sort of disaster management? It's been out since 1am this morning!!

  • edwardrussell ΞÐШΛЯÐ (@edwardrussell) reported

    I don’t understand how @virginmedia can be down throughout the night and into the morning and no customer service accounts on Twitter can give an update. There must be someone who can get a phone signal and let us know what’s happening?

  • JayKhannon Jay Khannon (@JayKhannon) reported
