  • TLClassless Ben 🌶️ (@TLClassless) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @Jack1295 @DanCrea_ @virginmedia Yeah pretty much what Jack said, other intro prices for a lesser package also weren't as good, v sad. Yeah I've been thinking about doing an overhaul of my whole network, this might be the time to take the dive 😂

  • helen_c_murphy Helen C Murphy (@helen_c_murphy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia having issues with connectivity & slow speed. I'm working from home & this is causing me a LOT of stress. I still have targets. Hard to do when the internet is crawling & up & down like a yoyo. Been like this for 2 weeks. Diagnostics say no problem 😥😭

  • ZHaxhifazliu Zeliha Haxhifazliu (@ZHaxhifazliu) reported from Liverpool, England

    @vmbusiness at this current time working from home under so much stress and pressure the last thing you need is your broadband playing up. This is not acceptable we ate paying for a service which is currently nonexistent. Wifi goes down every 5 min. Please can you look into this

  • renzair Renzair (@renzair) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia If your internet service to St. Helens could be anything other than complete dogshit for more than five minutes that’d be swell. Since 7:30 this morning, constant outages of internet service. STILL happening at 16:00. Thanks (for nothing). Again.

  • imsophieeee soph (@imsophieeee) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia says there’s no known issues in my area, yet my internet has been down for the past 20 minutes :(

  • the_eporter Tim Lyth (@the_eporter) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @virginmedia having issues with broadband. Hope it gets fixed soon.

  • mrsyozzer1 Sara Hughes❤🦁 (@mrsyozzer1) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Yes annoyingly intermittent service, any idea when it'll be sorted @virginmedia

  • mrwilkinson1979 Alan Wilkinson (@mrwilkinson1979) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia 2half hours waiting for a reply in text service! Can someone take ownership please!

  • bluebadgeguide Paul Beesley (@bluebadgeguide) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I called at 1541 today to report that my parents landline was not working. I made it clear that they are very elderly and need the landline in emergencies. I left my mobile number and asked for a callback to check progress 1/2

  • zozzaballs Zoey (@zozzaballs) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @SophieMEdwards @virginmedia Ours was the same, someone came out and fitted a booster few weeks ago but even that sometimes goes off. But this week it’s been awful

  • ste19410949 ste donnelly (@ste19410949) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia got to be worst service around all down again time to cancel I think

  • mrwilkinson1979 Alan Wilkinson (@mrwilkinson1979) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia yet again I’m let down... WiFi gone while watching a film! But hey, you can’t be arsed answering customers issues!

  • topbalcony Tom Kelly (@topbalcony) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia I have been unable to access my Blueyonder e mail for 2 weeks now. I have tried the recommended fixes to no Avila and am told I might wait for an hour to have someone answer my call. £80 a month for a broken service is a bit on the steep side

  • shmike07 michael allen (@shmike07) reported from Seaforth, England

    @III_VIII_I @virginmedia I work for another provider,it never drops below 60mb anytime day or night so it’s possible to do it. Over subscribed in your area.

  • scottcvrroll Scott Carroll (@scottcvrroll) reported from Liverpool, England

    @JacobAlderHam @virginmedia Shocking isn’t it mate, I’ve not been able to use streaming devices or gaming devices for a few weeks without constant spikes and buffering. I pay for 200 down and receive about 40... so much packet loss. Shambles.

  • mrwilkinson1979 Alan Wilkinson (@mrwilkinson1979) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia still waiting for contact or a method I can use to contact. Disgusting service! Happy to take my money

  • Stephjjmn Steph Nash (@Stephjjmn) reported from Wigan, England

    @stevenfrost3003 @virginmedia @skytv We had the same problems, went to Sky who are much cheaper with better deals and service, never looked back 👍🏼

  • ste19410949 ste donnelly (@ste19410949) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia got to be worst internet service going time to get rid I think 💩💩💩

  • colinlit colin littlejohns (@colinlit) reported from Liverpool, England

  • Morton1989 Scott Morton (@Morton1989) reported

    @virginmedia I have but I'm unable to speak to anyone. I've had the call back another message a few times and then one that said there's an issue an update will be installed. It installed it and that's why I'm now getting half of my speed. Can I request someone call me?

  • Blackfemenist EVERYONE’S PRO BLACK TILL IT’STIME TO BE PRO BLACK (@Blackfemenist) reported

    @virginmedia the internet connectivity is terrible

  • PeelAdam Adam Peel (@PeelAdam) reported

    @virginmedia @jlawrocks see if anything happens. If not cancel your DDM and go to @skytv - they can collect the boxes from you as they have failed to provide the service you paid for

  • TonzerWee Tom Whewell (@TonzerWee) reported from Guiseley, England

    @virginmedia Every year you seem to stick on an extra 3 or 4 quid for no extra quality in service. I really don’t know why I stay with your mobile service. It’s appalling. I rally should leave.

  • FlashCulture1 Flash Culture: Faraz (@FlashCulture1) reported

    @virginmedia what a **** show your customer service is. Was just about to switch my business over to you too!! Will switch home provider as soon as possible too.

  • hibezzz KR@HFC1875 (@hibezzz) reported
