  • JayJaySZN JayJaySZN (@JayJaySZN) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia The thing that confuses me is like now it is working fine, but I don’t have the gaurentee or reassurance that it will stay up so I put of completing big tsk at work. Then in the evening it totally dies. I am on hold as we speak. Hold music isn’t to bad to be fair.

  • jameslsaunders James Saunders (@jameslsaunders) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Nothing listed on my area on service status page. tV fault is loss of all advanced features: Pause, Rewind, Record, can’t access apps, cant search.

  • newworldruler Daniel Martin-Corben (@newworldruler) reported from Portsmouth, England

    Joy of having high speed Internet to work from home but the service is down with @virginmedia, thankfully I have tethering with my @ThreeUK mobile contact. Else I'd be facing a hour drive to the office. Any news as to why its down Virgin, other that the 6pm estimated fix?

  • JayJaySZN JayJaySZN (@JayJaySZN) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Okay, I know there are loads of people having the same issue, please it’s lockdown we are all struggling as it sort it . I’ve never had an issues with virgin before

  • JayJaySZN JayJaySZN (@JayJaySZN) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Sent a “Hit” to it worked for 2 minutes & is now dead again. Still no issue in our area?

  • Peter_Mac_ Peter Mac🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@Peter_Mac_) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia wifi cutting out continuous throughout the day. Just spent 1 hr with your support. As I was using wifi calling I checked he would call me back before he started resetting/ testing. Just been cut off as expected. No call back. Frustrated and disappointed. Pls Help

  • newworldruler Daniel Martin-Corben (@newworldruler) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @SafeT @virginmedia @ThreeUK I think it's service work too, I understand things have to be done, but you'd think they'd at least warm me and I could have made other plans.

  • JayJaySZN JayJaySZN (@JayJaySZN) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia Done all of the above, other neighbours are having the same issue. It is working now but will stop working in a minute, I am currently WFH & this is causing issues with my work & the connection will drop out.

  • SBamborough Suzanne Bamborough (@SBamborough) reported from Portsmouth, England

    No WiFi all day - and still no service! What’s going on @virginmedia ?!? postcode: PO4, Southsea

  • Shazer1980 Ms S (@Shazer1980) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia your phone lines are never answered your online chat is not responding or resolving my issues which have been on going since October. I can’t work from home!!!

  • james_mccoll james (@james_mccoll) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down in Netley, Southampton AGAIN this is ridiculous

  • Maritimegeek Andrew McAlpine Ⓥ (⧖) 🌱 (@Maritimegeek) reported from Locks Heath, England

    @virginmedia can you tell me f it’s acceptable to be on hold for 48 minutes. After which to finally speak to someone who is unable to resolve your issue and who puts you over to another dept for you to be on on hold for another 30 minutes?

  • james_mccoll james (@james_mccoll) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia Let’s be honest it always says there’s no issue, but yes we checked it and it says nothing. It went off this morning at about 11 and in the past 15 mins it’s gone off 3 times

  • FinolaSloyanPR Finola Sloyan (@FinolaSloyanPR) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with your service?? Just discovered I’ll have no internet until 6pm, with no warning. This is not acceptable. This, after atrocious TV reception past week & 16 days with no landline Sept/Oct. See you’ve increased my package too #badcustomerservice

  • JayJaySZN JayJaySZN (@JayJaySZN) reported from Portsmouth, England
