  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia The people on first line support are there to filter out the most obvious problems (wrong password, equipment not plugged or faulty, etc). Your goal noe is to prove that it's not your fault (device configuration, weak WiFi, etc).

  • harrybilbao Harry Bilbao (@harrybilbao) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia My mother lives next to Grenfell and she’s a bit paranoid her router and/or charger is overheating. Customer services aren’t taking her serious. What should I do? Besides unplugging the service?

  • JLoveRage James Loveridge (@JLoveRage) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Now the wired Ethernet is not working either. I tried factory resets multiple times when the WiFi first stopped working 8 days ago. I've just turned it off for 30 seconds and on again. Do far, nothing.

  • Karen_1979 Karen (@Karen_1979) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    Why is it when @virginmedia have a fault my v6+ breaks down and I have now lost all my 64% of recording that I can not get back are you going to compensate me.

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia Don't mention the word WiFi, your problem is the WAN connection. Plug you laptop via the LAN cable when testing / calling them.

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia That's to discard physical problems with your cable.

  • Maybank1970 Gareth Maybank (@Maybank1970) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve got a bit of a problem. I can sign into my Virgin Media account on my iPad just fine, but when I try to sign into my emails it’s says it’s not available and to try again in an hours time. Well, it’s been like this for two weeks now. What’s going on?

  • markjg65 mark garratt (@markjg65) reported from Camberwell, England

    Really disappointed that my home broadband dropped out mid recording for a BBC show this afternoon @virginmedia ; your service is so flaky in South East London #virginmedia

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia I used to be a customer before moving to Lewisham and left them because I was getting about 10% of the contracted speed and they were taking months to resolve it. They ended up admitting it was oversubscription.

  • TonyRoddUK Tony Rodd (@TonyRoddUK) reported from London, England

    Anyone on @virginmedia in SE London able to get online? We have had more issues and their service status page doesn't seem to be working. Doesn't look like they're responding to tweets either for the past 17 hours...

  • KikassP CazkikassPhotography (@KikassP) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia thanks on behalf of all virgin media customers for not being able to pick up phones to help those who need help but have no wish to "Do it on line" we haven't received any compensation for 3 days of no net even though we have registered it everyday. PART ONE

  • MidkentTravel MidKent Travel (@MidkentTravel) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia Can you please private message me, I have a log on issue.

  • brazenprods 🏍 brazen productions- jules hussey 🏍 (@brazenprods) reported from Camberwell, England

    I’m on a tariff rethink day. @virginmedia pretty poor as always even though operative on phone tried her best

  • jorgeml Jorge Martínez López (@jorgeml) reported from London, England

    @JamesJWalsh @virginmedia The router has a couple of pages that are useful, one has the logs (check the error timestamp matches when your connection went down). There is also a more technical page that shows the uplink / downlink channels, have a look and check there is some voltage on them.

  • JLoveRage James Loveridge (@JLoveRage) reported from Islington, England

    Hey @virginmedia, the internet is down again, has been for 8 hours.

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

  • TonyRoddUK Tony Rodd (@TonyRoddUK) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It's finally working but says there's an intermittant error on the network. No option to get it fixed though. Anything that can be done?

  • harrybilbao Harry Bilbao (@harrybilbao) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Wayyyyy over 24 hours. No reply. A router and power supply that’s overheating and customer service don’t care. This is how fires are caused #Grenfell

  • MatthewSorbie Matthew Sorbie (@MatthewSorbie) reported

    @virginmedia I haven't, but why can't I just cancel it on the app or something? It's 2021 lol Also the contract was supposed to end in June, so why does virgin choose to keep taking money anyways?

  • VieriTweets Will Vieri (@VieriTweets) reported

    @virginmedia This just starts the loop again. I wanted you to help me. That’s all I’m asking. Get me an actual answer, not send me off to a call centre many miles away who don’t have any information. It’s just not good enough. Can you help me?

  • LFC_Chris Chris Harrison (@LFC_Chris) reported

    @virginmedia It says there are no known issues in the area

  • SarahCatGreen Sarah Green (@SarahCatGreen) reported

    @virginmedia So we were told there was an outage that was due to be repaired today. The service is still barely working. Is it notionally repaired?

  • LordClutters LordClutters (@LordClutters) reported

    @virginmedia your woeful reporting of an ETA for restoration of the outage in KT2 has meant I’ve now got a fuming client and you’ve cost me £400. Expect an invoice imminently. I get that **** happens but do you even understand the word HONESTY?

  • ISMAIL2326 Исмаил адам 📿 (@ISMAIL2326) reported

    @virginmedia why is ur internet connection so poor #fuming been like this for over 5/6 months I’m tired of complaining

  • KhaleesiKat SallySunshine (@KhaleesiKat) reported

    @virginmedia The box on the wall in my new flat has an NTL logo so I queried if it would work. The lady said to answer that I need to book service & provide all my details. When I said it’s just a query. I’m not ready to order the service she hung up. Very pushy. Very impatient

  • exoticprawn ExoticPrawn (@exoticprawn) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t call that number at the moment and the forums don’t help at all

  • LFC_Chris Chris Harrison (@LFC_Chris) reported

    @virginmedia hi for the past 36-48 hours my WiFi has kept going on and off I have done the usual of restarting my router etc and I have seen an engineer at the top of my road is there an issue in the area ?

  • davidkh001 davidkh001 (@davidkh001) reported

    @virginmedia This is now fixed in my area. However my neighbours still experiencing issues please fix this ASAP. Considering WFH this is highly frustrating! SW19 South Park Gardens area
