-
Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England@virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub
-

-
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.

-
Julie Backstreet (@BSBJULIE78) reported@virginmedia Awful timing for a software update of @SkySports All over the weekend 🙄 Hope there is going to be some reduction in my bill?
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reportedIn the meantime the @virginmedia ‘supervisor’ whom I waited 90 mins to talk to on Tues night, & who promised to escalate our outage to engineering so I could have SOME INFORMATION, has of course not been in touch Just like the other supervisor who made the same promise last week
-
Scottish_VAR (@Scottish_VAR) reported@heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia I have moved to smarty mobile hub. I pay 20 a month for unlimited data, its a rolling month contract and uses three signal. Its great you can take it away with you to hotels or away on holiday.
-
Gram (@Gram7070707070) reported@Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Worst company I have ever dealt with and it's not even close. They'll screw your credit rating by mistake and never, ever fix it. They'll hang up on you, the staff don't put notes on accounts and you have to tell the same story to 20 different disinterested call centre staff.
-
A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported@timtam1888 @heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia The problem many have with connection Speeds in other Rooms has partly nothing to do with the size of the Router, it is down to using wifi and not wired by Cable. All rooms for best results need wired, my own wifi I can't even get sat outside my own House never mind game with it.
-
Jess Stocks (@jrstocks89) reported@virginmedia still no response. I’m paying a lot of money to access Sky Sports red button on my TV but still another 8 days to apparently fix it All the sport I want to watch is again on the red button this weekend
-
Bill.Doyle (@doyle113694) reported@virginmedia Internet down yet again, sick of this crap. Time to cancel.
-
Richard Aldous 🍊 (@RJAldous1) reportedHey @virginmedia how long does it take to sort out a connection issue as my broadband and tv went down about 14:00 and still just getting a flashing red light on my router (yes I reported it) these days it’s hard to do anything without internet access! 😡
-
doozerlyn (@doozerlyn) reported@virginmedia Sort the red button issue or make some refunds to customers for breach of service
