  • nippa77 Neil Simpson (@nippa77) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia why is it that your service is up and down more than a yo-yo? It’s getting ridiculous now!!!

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

  • NewtonAndy Andy Newton (@NewtonAndy) reported from Dudley, England

    @Niknaklady1 @virginmedia Oh dear. That's what made me think the problem may not be virgin, if you've got signal on another set. Hope you get it sorted 👍

  • StuJonesMusic Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • xsasix freckles n dimples (@xsasix) reported from Woodside, England

    @virginmedia how do you check the mobile phone signal in your area? I’ve had nine for a few days

  • PolymathTim SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Zero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

  • tarun65170952 tarun (@tarun65170952) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Im getting slow speeds on my broadband. My package is volt and which should be 250mbs im getting less that half of that. Please ask your team to look into this

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They haven't called me yet that's how bad you're

  • HJMKent Howard Martin 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia You have just repeated, word for word, the last tweet you sent me, to which I replied! Pointless trying to have any conversation with @virginmedia because it just goes round in circles! The most appalling customer services in UK in my experience! No more tweets from you, please!

  • _shannonC shanny C 🌹 (@_shannonC) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia haha you mean the same forum where they didn’t answer me for days last time, and they didn’t resolve anything???? waste of time. they told me to check the speed and check for area issues. absolutely awful customer service when i’ve been complaining about this for WEEKS now.

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia you have left my 75 year old mother without a landline and earliest date you can fix is in 6 days!. Really poor service.

  • estrellia Dawn Williams (@estrellia) reported

    @virginmedia Online service checker isn't working properly either.

  • fh3mi Femi ♟ (@fh3mi) reported

    @virginmedia No it just cuts off every 20-30 minutes. Fix your silly internet. Been dealing with it since Wednesday. It’s so ******* frustrating

  • JimSohal Birdie (@JimSohal) reported

    @virginmedia Given how long it's been down will I get any credit?

  • BethAshton Beth Ashton (@BethAshton) reported

    The page to check if your Virgin Media is down is down

  • doobleshaft Paul Winstone (@doobleshaft) reported

    @virginmedia What's happening with internet in SA10 area? I found issues with streaming and in the same room as the router where I normally get 800mbps plus, I now am lucky to get 25mbps.

  • kathrynsales Kathryn Sales (@kathrynsales) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin systems weren’t registering a fault. But I now have a list of about 30 residents all experiencing the exact same outages at the exact same times so we’re all pretty convinced there is a bigger issue. It would be great to pass this data on to someone. Who shall I contact?

  • joe_jsx Joe_jsx (@joe_jsx) reported

    Once again while preparing to go live on twitch @virginmedia has gone down. I may have to postpone tonight’s stream, which will not only get in the way of doing something I love and look forward too, but also cost me money. Will virgin compensate me for loss of income? PAHA

  • palace65 Chris Curtis (@palace65) reported

    @virginmedia I am and absolutely appalled with your customer services

  • ellieroof Ellie (@ellieroof) reported

    @virginmedia no Wi-Fi all day and now no landline?!!!!! Sick of the constant issues
