    @virginmedia - Internet seems to have gone down in RG41, and your status page isn’t working. Can you confirm / when will it be back? Thx

  • pears0 gonzo (@pears0) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia so, I've been trying for over 3 hours now to cancel my contract and absolutely no progress made so far!!! 3 hours. Surely this is a breach of ofcoms rules to make cancellation a reasonably quick and easy process!?

  • danbon1973 Daniel Bonilla (@danbon1973) reported from Wokingham, England

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

    Anybody having problems with @virginmedia in the Reading area ……..?

  • MikeBiscoe1 Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    If anyone is interested in how much @virginmedia are overcharging for their dreadful service, I’ve just been offered a price match on cancellation to move to a different supplier. £27.50/month for a service for which they originally increased price to £105/month

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.

  • ChavdogEvans Daniel Evans (@ChavdogEvans) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia my wifi seem to keep dropping out is there issues with it at the moment

  • shaun1968 shaun harley (@shaun1968) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia I'm expecting a replacement set top box to replace a broken tivo. Told it will be delivered Weds. but I've had no confirmation email and not showing in my virgin app. Can anyone help

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    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.

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!

  • FfrTweets FFR Tweets💥🚀 (@FfrTweets) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia really difficult to get connected with an agent and some decent support, been trying to reach for days, just get Bots! @richardbranson

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    Another day of pathetic experience on @virginmedia broadband service. No broadband service in RG6 area. Regretting my decision to switch. @Ofcom @DowndetectorUK

  • kqbrain Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia let me down once again with their pathetic service. First the broadband was extremely slow all day and now the Hub is gone. No emergency appointment and I have to wait for a week for a technician visit. @Ofcom

  • RNeacsu Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England

    @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.

  • AronGunningham Aron Gunningham (@AronGunningham) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia RG6 no service

  • pears0 gonzo (@pears0) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia We are sorry you are still waiting to be connected to one of the team. Our wait times are very high at the moment due to an unprecedented demand to speak to the team & we are experiencing some issues with our internal systems. This may mean a delay in being transferred to one of

  • vserafino19 Vito Serafino (@vserafino19) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia @tandcbroking Either a lot of people are checking the service status on the website or that site also not working. Cheers

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia I don't know. You never answer the phone when I call you.
