  • SamHRH Sam Heath (@SamHRH) reported

    @virginmedia guys! AGAIN I’m in the middle of working from gone and your net dies! What am I supposed to do?! Who pays for the loss of earnings? For the stress of arguing with the boss?! FIX. IT. You’re paid enough.

  • graham2263 Graham T (@graham2263) reported

    @virginmedia Always, told to buy a Wi-fi extender for up and downstairs, but BT was never a problem and sufficient we for three storey house.

  • dandartington Dan Dartington (@dandartington) reported

    @virginmedia It’s fine now. It came back on at full time. Somewhat bad timing to say the least

  • L0SH none (@L0SH) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, we currently have no internet in BS8 and haven't for over an hour now. Is there a problem? Do you know when it will be fixed? Thanks

  • xlizagx Liza G (@xlizagx) reported

    @virginmedia Come on Virgin media. How can you pass the buck to the “community” to find a resolution?! Surely if it’s a technical issue you should be sorting this. It’s been days with plenty of complaints and this is your response. Terrible. #VirginMedia

  • crispin_redman Crispin Redman (@crispin_redman) reported

    @TwitterVideo all videos on Twitter appear as ‘content not available’ when I am on wifi@( ok on 4g).Virginmedia tell me this is a problem across several platforms and you know about it. Could you please sort ASAP? Have rebooted phone, deleted app etc. Cheers

  • jason84woods Jason Woods (@jason84woods) reported

    @virginmedia The service is really reliable! It’s only ever down on days that end with a “Y” then they try to justify saying it’s not their fault as it’s an area outage like we’re supposed to tolerate losing tv and broadband a couple of times a month!

  • L0SH none (@L0SH) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, the link doesn't work but the service checker on your website is now saying that you're doing work in the area today and tomorrow and there'll likely be no service? Is that true? I have my PhD defense scheduled over zoom tomorrow morning! - I need a broadband connection!

  • e_oconnell Eleanor O’Connell (@e_oconnell) reported

    @virginmedia Yes every single day since last Tuesday it has said it will be fixed by 4pm and it’s still not fixed. Will not be staying with Virgin Media after this, unacceptable service.

  • Bellelctaylor Belle Taylor (@Bellelctaylor) reported

    @virginmedia It's 03454541111 (followed by choosing (or being transferred to) accounts/renewal). I have still yet to be able to talk to someone who can help. I was on hold for so long, they said they'd ring me back. I admittedly missed this call but have had no more attempts since.
