  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.

  • DaveMbootlebuck

    @virginmedia No. Can’t get through. I’ve just submitted a complaint

    @virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

  • cbray72
    Christopher Bray (@cbray72) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I think so yes there's definitely a issue of some description as it keeps happening all the time

  • Robertlfc_

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

  • RebekahP1nk
    Rebekah Jones (@RebekahP1nk) reported from Prenton, England

    @virginmedia soooo what's wrong this time?? You are just about up the cost to astronomical amounts and now the broadband goes down again ..

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

    @virginmedia I only worked as a network Ops mgr for nearly 10 years, so I guess I wouldn't understand network issues and connectivity, really. Or service level agreements. Or teaching my grandmother how to suck eggs.

    lloyd #utft (@111O1O1O11O) reported from Wallasey, England

    No service in CH44 for 2 days last week, back on for 2, then off again today. No text updates but service status says a fix by 20.00. Won't happen though will it? @virginmedia

  • kevsauno
    Kevin Saunderson* (@kevsauno) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia hello, issues with TV and WiFi in Liverpool L12 area this morning. No issues showing on the app. Tried all the usual stuff but still no connection.

  • NatashaVic
    Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • les_murray71
    Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia @joshyw0shy Its the whole of the Wirral by the sound of it, no statement from Virgin, just telling hundreds of customers to check for an outage, only have to look at their twitter to see how many of us have been told the same thing

  • aralph50
    Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, England

    Please sort this out. You charge enough, surely we are entitled to a service that actually works??@virginmedia #virginmedia

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

  • sabrevan
    Brendan (@sabrevan) reported

    @virginmedia There was an outage in my area - for 3 days. It’s not my hub. It’s the ridiculously bad, unreliable service @virginmedia provide. Our whole street is complaining. Guess what … the service is down again today 😡

  • sabrevan
    Brendan (@sabrevan) reported

    @virginmedia - broadband down for the majority of the time since Wednesday night in KT2 area. “Helpline” says the engineers are looking into the problem. Surely you can give a straight answer. Sky and Vodafone are offering same speeds. Should I move?

  • BestI28294
    BEST IPTV (@BestI28294) reported

    Tired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV offers: * 300,000+ live channels * 65,000+ VODs * PPV events

  • iamryanodonnell
    Ryan O'Donnell (@iamryanodonnell) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you - I managed to call them and I believe they’ve sent out another WiFi Pod, so I’m hopeful that’ll solve my issue.

  • brettgask76
    Brett Gaskell (@brettgask76) reported

  • mikegormley2003
    Mike (@mikegormley2003) reported

    @virginmedia WIFI been down for days, engineer comes yesterday, says he can’t fix it, says he’ll pass it on and leaves. No proof he’s been or any contact about what’s next. Shocking. DD5 1EJ.

  • kevinclarknw
    Kevin Clark (@kevinclarknw) reported

    @virginmedia Not good enough, I'm afraid. This is just the latest outage in recent weeks. The siuation appears to be getting worse, not better. We are paying for a service you are not providing and incurring additional costs through being unable to work from home.

    louanne smith (@louanne67210968) reported

    @virginmedia are you having problems in Dh47ln area my internet hub will not connect so we have had no internet this afternoon I’ve tried to reset it with no luck

    @virginmedia Hi guys. The voice activated part of my remote isn’t working at the moment. Could you give me some guidance on how to fix the issue please? Thanks in advance for your help!

  • kevinclarknw
    Kevin Clark (@kevinclarknw) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. There are now TWO issues, one of which is not expected to be fixed until Wednesday. Ssevice has been out since Friday.
