    @virginmedia It was an account pretending to be yourselves, trying to phish for info. Reported it to Twitter. The account viriginmeida has been suspended. #regards my issue. Your black spot spotter is not great if a black spot is so black that I get no WiFi

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @virginmedia @Ramsey255Joanne HOW DARE you keep telling customers to contact YOUR chosen courier. The contract is between YODEL and Virgin. YODEL, if they even answer, will tell the customer to contact the sender. YOU chose them. YOU deal with them.

  • lestervose ann (@lestervose) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia I have no internet connection WA11, checked area status (through mobile data 😏 thankfully can rely on 3 mobile) which reports no issues. Well there is...as per usual. Please help

  • natherton90 Neil Atherton™ (@natherton90) reported from Rainhill, England

  • alchteb beth (@alchteb) reported from Warrington, England

    went on @virginmedia live chat at 2pm because my broadband was down - engineer arrived at 5pm and all fixed by half past! five stars from me!

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia engineer has been out done tests everything fine , except the Wi-Fi cutting out . Which you say is because of Android 08 . My partner has same device as me but has Android 07 and she has the same problem. It was fine till a couple of months ago I think it's your hub

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I'm sorry I disagree it's @virginmedia broadband not Samsung broadband! So it is a @virginmedia issue .I don't pay Samsung for my Wi-Fi.

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @virginmedia @natashaoneill_ We’re getting sick of saying this. It’s NOT the customer’s responsibility to contact YODEL. Virgin hired them. Contract is with Virgin. All YODEL will do is tell the customer to contact Virgin. Stop lying to customers.

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

  • thereal_rookie Paul Rooke (@thereal_rookie) reported from Prescot, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted, changed channels, sometimes get a bit of 5ghz, but really not high quality signal, stuttering video playback.

  • alchteb beth (@alchteb) reported from Warrington, England

    went on @virginmedia live chat at 2pm because my broadband was down - engineer arrived at 5pm and all fixed by half past! five stars from me!

  • coachdancad Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted it yesterday and a number of times previously. I’m now in receipt of a Cat. 6 Ethernet cable which has improved wired speeds - I’d suggest these should come as standard - but wireless speeds are still slow and unreliable.

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @virginmedia @sharonod1 Clearly they bloody can’t. Stop telling her the same crap.

  • dbrindle92 David Brindle (@dbrindle92) reported from Liverpool, England

    @AdamWether @virginmedia @O2 For what you pay them you should be able to get signal on the moon

  • YODELhell YODELhell (@YODELhell) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @Loddonbrewery @virginmedia That’s because YODEL’s contract is with the sender, Virgin. They’ll tell the customer (you) to contact the sender. Virgin keeps telling customers to contact YODEL. They know that’s wrong, yet keep doing it.

  • TomMunns1 Tom Munns (@TomMunns1) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia hi, I can’t register for my virgin media. I type in details and it doesn’t progress my past the register page. Can you help.

  • coachdancad Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Used the guide before - it’s why I moved the router. Poor signal is because I moved the PS4 5ft across the room. But it’s less than 5m away from the router in a straight line - obscured only by the floor and the tv is sits next to.

  • DJGlassBack PENALTYPOOL (@DJGlassBack) reported from Liverpool, England

    Why is my wifi not working yet again @virginmedia beyond a joke now

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Re: Wi-Fi cutting out, exclamation mark .Samsung blame your hub @virginmedia blame Android 8.0.meanwhile my service gets worse with no solution in sight. #frustrated

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes it's the same problem

  • PastelCorpsetv モノノ怪 | PastelCorpse (@PastelCorpsetv) reported

    @virginmedia I've taken the steps to reset our router, this is as usual an area problem not just our home, but this seems to be a running problem every week, there is always a connection issue with the broadband services even after having all our connections changed.

  • Monza972 Monil 💙 (@Monza972) reported

    @virginmedia Not a password issue. Website is badly coded. Sorry.

  • Mathsy93 Amy (@Mathsy93) reported

    @virginmedia It was online through the refer a friend link… the lack of support so far has been shockingly poor. WhatsApp customer service said they would be resolving it, but 5 months later still not solved! Then it seems rather cheeky that @virginmedia send promotion emails at £80 to refer

  • NigelClark78 Nigel Clark (@NigelClark78) reported

    @virginmedia It's your equipment that is faulty It's the virgin hub that is not working correctly so I do not see how I would have to pay for that ?

  • Tokraspy Mark Evans (@Tokraspy) reported

    @virginmedia Lousy technical service lousy failing superhub works okay after they reset it and goes wrong with an hours connectivity on 2G and 5G a spotty at best and drop signals to devices. Poor signal strength in house. None existent outside house. Too higher price. And BT is offering

  • MrAlexBonner Alex (@MrAlexBonner) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, yes have tried rebooting - still not working, it’s been down all afternoon, now saying fixed at 23:30

  • JP27042020 Lil Drizzle (@JP27042020) reported

    @virginmedia I've been having broadband issues since yesterday and I have to work from home. What's going on?!

  • JRF1875 JRF (@JRF1875) reported

    @virginmedia Prior to realising that it was a fake account i provided my name and address. Can you confirm that this would not be sufficient information for them to pretend to be me? Thanks I am contacting your customer service team now.

  • filtermcleen Amy J (@filtermcleen) reported

    @Rebecca46338538 @virginmedia YES! And now it’s saying it won’t be back up until 10am tomorrow so I am just trying to find a desk for tomorrow morning. Our monthly bill is so expensive as well. I think I’m gonna have to leave Virgin. There are always issues

  • Tokraspy Mark Evans (@Tokraspy) reported

    @virginmedia And some of virgin hotspot to boosters the strength, which are never available and TS are never willing to help me get any or get me a new broadband router. Virgin media is just been so lousy of late the past year or two it is disgusting
