    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.

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

    Ended up just reconnecting my TP Link router, it seems the problems were with my Hub 5 because everything seems to be working fine now. Not great @virginmedia

  • AdieJAMster
    Adie Hughes (@AdieJAMster) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia

    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

  • scbadham
    Scott badham (@scbadham) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia really disappointed in the service lately all it does is keep dropping. I’ve had no Internet services for the last hour again the fourth time this week and it’s still not working

  • frugalista1
    Frugalista (@frugalista1) reported from Dorridge, England

    @virginmedia Typical Virgin Media response. Passing me on. Not actually solving the problem. I will never come back to @virginmedia and will advise all my friends never to think of using you.

  • TheShannimal_
    TheShannimal🔜#i70 (@TheShannimal_) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @Cplcash @virginmedia Problem is other providers are so slow at installing fibre cables that most have no choice but to go with VM

  • jordyanslow1
    jordy (@jordyanslow1) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia any chance of an update regarding the outage in my local area regarding internet connection? It’s been down 2 days straight!

  • RobinB1971
    Robin 🤘🏻 (@RobinB1971) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia signed up for your new broadband and still waiting for the stuff to arrive. Apparently parcel is still at @YodelOnline main hub. This is the SECOND day I've cancelled things and waited for it to arrive as yet to no avail. WTF is going on!?! 🤬

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

    @virginmedia No , when I last spoke to someone on the phone the issue was still happening , it doesn’t happen as much now but still happens at least once a day

  • laticwolf
    Alex (@laticwolf) reported from Bradmore, England

    @virginmedia good work 👏🏼 issues with WiFi being down constantly as soon as £7.50 monthly bill increases comes in! Currently on hour 5 of no internet and not due to be fixed before 1am 🙃

  • measlewolf
    Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I understand that your systems were down last night, which happens, but I’ve been on hold for 30 mins this morning. We have a text to say it’s resolved but it isn’t. I just need to speak to someone please.

  • JazbaEnt
    Jazba Entertainment (@JazbaEnt) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia business installation, been given 6 dates since 17th January. 4 no show or wrong booked, 2 attendance but not equipped to extend installation from 1sf floor to 2nd. even billed for a service which is not even installed yet. Nightmare #virginmedia #broadband

  • paragaz
    Garry (@paragaz) reported from Streetly, England

    @virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service

  • 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

  • iamscorchy
    iamscorchy (@iamscorchy) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Virgin media is literally dog! Worst thing I've done is keep renewing with you every year next year 100% going with bt! Forever dropping out reconnecting utter pointless meant to be 1gig complete waffle! @Virgin #virginmedia

    Michael Bradley #FBPE #SocialistSunday (@Mike_J_Bradley) reported

    @virginmedia Mines by down at least 24hrs. Ridiculous and told they are working on it. Not good enough considering how much we pay. I live in Liverpool. It seems to be affecting different areas differently. I just get to welcome on the screen and nothing else. Tried rebooting etc nothing

  • FootittAnt
    Ant Trevers-Footitt (@FootittAnt) reported

    @virginmedia ITV still down

  • Craighale4
    Craig hale (@Craighale4) reported

    @ArmchairAdml I’ve got a similar situation with @virginmedia where I’m paying £92 for internet and phone line which I’ve never used.

  • SamuelWill64467
    Samuel Williams (@SamuelWill64467) reported

    @DanAaronTaylor @virginmedia I had this issue and MEGANCODE took care of it.

  • SteveJusta
    Steve Justa (@SteveJusta) reported

    @virginmedia To everyone with no tv channels - try switching your box off for 2 min then on again. Mine's not worked since thursday. The service checker this morning STILL says there's problems, but i've just reset the box and it's back on

  • CS_Hants
    South Coast Commuter (@CS_Hants) reported

    @virginmedia @docrussjackson Make a formal complaint and say you will report to @Ofcom. Ask for compensation, there are plenty of precedents. They are measured on how many and how quickly they resolve customer complaints. Am dumping VM tomorrow after 18 months of abysmal service, cant wait to be rid of them!

  • dollynoocat
    Dollynoocat (@dollynoocat) reported

    @virginmedia going to message @MartinSLewis to see if he can highlight the standards of service you allegedly provide.

  • Why__OMG__Why
    G HUNTer (@Why__OMG__Why) reported

    @DowndetectorUK found alternative ways of watching ITV1. get a clearer constant picture than Virgin Media. Several sources at zero cost. With the constant problems and ever increasing costs, I don't mind if I get interrupted tv at such an enormous discount.

  • drosey
    Dawn Rose (@drosey) reported

    @virginmedia Signed up for updates on the TV outage (into 2nd day now). Absolutely ZERO emails..not even one! Hope there's plenty of compensation for loss of service

  • GrantStewart2
    Grant Stewart (@GrantStewart2) reported

    @virginmedia Tv still down after 24 hours and no update from VM. Awful service from a company that states putting customers first. Shocking service
