Leigh Booker 🐈⬛ 3.5% #FBPE #FBPPR #GTTO (@leighbooker) reported from Welling, England@virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal 💔
-
A voice only (@Avoiceonly2) reported from Blackheath, England@Marcroy_Smith @virginmedia Same here and customer service not available either
-
Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?
-
Mark 🏴 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia It's okay I've taken it up with CEDR now and let them resolve it, I'm just highlighting to people how difficult it is to cancel contracts and the fact that VM consistently "loose" letters

-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@virginmedia No effort is made to rectify the problem they just want to change to VOIP with no regard to a customer who spends over £1200 a bear for all devices, I wonder what offcom would think
-
Illy Mus 💙 (@illymus) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia so you hike our prices up and then the Internet has been awful today. Left home at 6am, just got home and still the same issue. Our landline relies on Internet and so does my 83 year old mother who uses it. Remind me what I am paying for???
-
Will Jennings (@willjennings80) reported from Lambeth, England@virginmedia You're internet is down *again* in sw9 and your internet service checker page does not work on mobile phones
-
Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England@virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.
-

Captain Howdy (@colonbarbarian) reported@Dratcliffe1986 @virginmedia @ExeterBub You need to first register the outage through Virgin media itself. I do this everytime there is an outage. Virgin will usually then give you any compensation, if they don't, then report to Ofcom.
