  • lurkinhead
    Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

    Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • TimmyJ1972
    Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine

  • 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.

    @virginmedia This is not the first time. The service the last 12 months has been shocking And now you're asking for the over the top increase in monthly payments 😡😡😡

    @virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks

    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I never have any issues when it comes to my laptop, though. Just my PS5

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

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to run an online tutoring business from home when your system goes down twice in a day ? #payingmorebutgettingless

  • CallyRaven
    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

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

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • DaveMbootlebuck
    DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Litherland, England

    @virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.

  • Parleyyyyyy
    Josh (@Parleyyyyyy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just done that. If you watch the video though you’ll see it doesn’t even let me get to the login page. As soon as I click on virgin media customer it tries to take me to a website & then closes down

    @virginmedia If you want to buy something VM people will try to sell you something they want to sell. Is this called customer support?

    Being told by the customer service team at @virginmedia that if I’m not happy I can cancel my contract after being on hold for an hour and no internet for a week! Oh the joys

  • Samet_UK
    Samet (@Samet_UK) reported

    @AmyHeppi @virginmedia Same here. It’s been over 24 hours and my Wi-Fi is still down. I’ve called support twice—they only say there’s an area outage with no updates. The status page isn't helpful too. Really disappointed with Virgin Media. Time to look at other providers.

  • Dadyougeek
    JR (@Dadyougeek) reported

    @appleblossomBe @virginmedia @LutzSchuler Nope they was more than happy to cancel it today!

  • MrZacJamesB
    Mr B’s History (@MrZacJamesB) reported

    @virginmedia has had at least 3 outages in the past week in my area. Becoming all too common and I work from home… my phone signal (for data usage) with O2 is also conveniently incredibly poor. Is there something we should be aware of?

  • TheDukeDusk
    Duke Dusk (@TheDukeDusk) reported

    My WiFi still down its been a whole *** day What is their problem 💔💔💔 Virgin media + o2 you're **** m8 fix your ******* wifi and TV services 🙏 I don't want to be ******* lectured for doing nothing productive

  • appleblossomBe
    appleblossomB (@appleblossomBe) reported

    @Dadyougeek @virginmedia @LutzSchuler Your best bet is to Phone them and cancel your subscription and tell them you’re switching . You’ll get through in minutes and they’ll bend over backwards for you & if they don’t , switch !!
