  • juanfelipe1
    John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

  • Bobby_Dazzler68

    @virginmedia Basically on 500mb package but getting below half of that speed. Tv service poor as on demand constantly drops out, ave twice during a film.

    @virginmedia been on live chat hold for nearly 30 minutes and it’s still saying 45 minutes wait as it did at the start. Not very good customer service since pandemic.

    @virginmedia I have no doubt you'll be on it. Been quite some time now. Just wondered if there was an end to issues in sight.

    @virginmedia How can you cancel my contract whilst i am living in the house and take word from a stranger over the phone surely you have broken GDPR

  • rosstarbard
    rosstarbard (@rosstarbard) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia internet has been down for the last half hour, no wifi or wired connection. Is there a problem in the Leicester area?

    Andi James Chamberlain (@sarianlives) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia can I have a telephone number to talk too someone@please, as I am having internet problems and now your website will not allow me to report it. His is frustrating service to say the least.

  • sewychloe
    Chloë Pritchard (@sewychloe) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia my mum’s landline has a fault - no dialling tone. She’s been on hold but can’t get through to a human to report it. We have both tried to report it via her online account but cannot access it. And yes she has wiggled her sockets! Help!

  • faizalmom
    Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia because of virgin media disconnecting us from broadband am missing out all on demand catch up tv on my sky q box and another thing is am paying for all that so money down the drain.

  • baz_007
    Baz (@baz_007) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you having outage issues today ? Unable to view websites and can’t get through to technical support we have a leased line

  • AshArmstrong9
    Ash Armstrong (@AshArmstrong9) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Seems OK now. It was Prime Video that was the problem. I think they couldn't handle all the football live streaming very well, and something had to give. Thanks 👍

  • Katie68833952
    Katie (@Katie68833952) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I'm not sure why, but our Internet and TV aren't currently working! No email to say work is being done. Online even says there's no issue which there clearly is. Area is LE2

  • SmallPaulDJ
    smallpauldj (@SmallPaulDJ) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I'm paying over 50 pounds just for 100mg broadband already! Why can a new customer get TV etc to for just 30? Conveniently the phone lines all seem off.

  • _Noumaan_
    Noumaan Abubakar (@_Noumaan_) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Is it possible to speak to someone over the phone as at the moment I'm not confident with the move being a smooth one. I'm promised call backs which never happen etc

    Tony Rumsey 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🐓🦅🚙🪵🐟 (@picklefork1965) reported

    @ryantegan @skytv My @virginmedia runs out end of September, £126 a month. They can shove their new deal. I only kept in the first place for the missus, but when she died last year I couldn’t wait for it to run down and I could bin it. So damned expensive.

  • WeAreOpenreach
    Openreach (@WeAreOpenreach) reported

    @RDadpour Good Morning Reza, Thanks for contacting Openreach today regarding your query, If you have not used a provider that uses the Openreach network for more then 2 year (i.e. City Fibre/ Virgin Media) What happens the address gets de-activated from our network but it will still (1/2)

    @virginmedia Ive sent you messages and you didn’t read them! The internet has been shocking for over a week and it just says intermittent signal every day.

  • pearceswan
    David James Pearce (@pearceswan) reported

    @MariaSale8 @virginmedia I think you should carry your responses at this sound quite rude. I was advised I have an engineer booked for tomorrow between 4 pm and 7 pm. Please confirm I’m disabled and housebound and on Oxygen.

    Jamboy (@briamjam) reported

    Just to.let you know I have successfully agreed a new contract with you happy with the result and over-the-years haven't had any major issues,touch wood of course @virginmedia

  • Trickyred59
    Andy Ward (@Trickyred59) reported

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Just had my monthly bill. £143. I'm assuming that next month the reduced charge will reflect this "functionality issue".

  • MrMoanivator
    Mr Moanivator (@MrMoanivator) reported

    @virginmedia My broadband hasn't been working since around 11am today. All week, Virgin has said that work was due to be completed in my area around 11:15am today. It's now saying that the hub is the problem. I've restarted and reset it, but it's still not working 🤬
