    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, the room where my hub is has great WiFi, my study has my laptop and printer, however WiFi is poor. I’d like to put some kinda booster in there, I did a test and looked into ordering one from you but was dismayed to being told it will cost £3 per mth plus del

    @virginmedia I’m totally disgusted with your call centre service I’ve just had a call from them & the person in question conveniently cut me off whilst in process of speaking to him. This has happened before & a complaint ignored. Value your customers you don’t know the meaning

    Reading @StrictlyDavina comments regarding lack of customer service with @VirginMedia I wholeheartedly agree ; it leaves a lot to be desired . @virginmedia need to apply the service the customers are paying for instead of continually increasing their prices .

    @virginmedia I was in the middle of open heart surgery at home when the WiFi cut out and still not on 12 hours later !!! How will you compensate me

  • LawroGardiner
    Lawrence Gardiner (@LawroGardiner) reported

    @virginmedia Router keeps resetting/rebooting/reregistering every evening. Will be out of use for as long as 30 mins and will happen multiple times a night. I've checked service status, all okay. Called the number, all okay. Carried out a pin reset, this solved the issue temporarily 1/2

    .@virginmedia Why have you removed #email from service status? My broadband is working, but my email is not; there's nowhere to check outages of that. #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @virginmedia I Have been away but logging in externally to check my house with my CCTV, had to come back early as lost connection, I have booked an engineer, but your website status shows no issues after logging in as well as emailing me to say it's backup and running 🤬

  • CDGreen22
    Christopher Green (@CDGreen22) reported

    @virginmedia No known issues on the status page. Don't think it's been identified as an issue yet. Multiple people are reporting packet loss in Manchester on Twitter. Can this be escalated and looked at?

  • Richard121
    Richard Evans (@Richard121) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t because it is timing out. What would be helpful is you resolving the problem. Area is Stockport SK3. Tried resetting hub, no change. Problem across laptops and phones. 2.3 mbps pretty consistent on Speedchecker.

  • Minghowriter
    Ming Ho (@Minghowriter) reported

    @virginmedia No, bcos don't want to start messing with my settings when something has gone wrong at your end. As per my previous message, it usually comes back in a few hours, but it's not acknowledged in Service Status. I'm getting incoming mail OK; it just won't send. #virginmedia #email
