  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah known issue with TV Aim to fix by 12.00 No am or PM or date So not really much help !

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

  • johncoxonmedia John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @CllrJWarmisham @virginmedia Customer service has gone out the window since they were taken over. Totally complacent and purely profit led. Nightmare trying to get to speak to anyone too.

  • DougHall18 Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia The TV is out The box just keeps going from no signal to starting up on a loop Currently ourphone line isn't working again I've lost count of how many engineers have been out ! We are paying just under £100 a month for what ?? Thankfully internet ok I'm a home worker !

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia But we had that last night and was on for an hour after work and now off been off since about 6pm Not sure what service been like during day as working

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    Here we are again had TV on for 5 mins why I have a drink and breakfast and it's off again.with a fix date of Monday 17th I believe @virginmedia But bet we don't get any bill discount for the continuous outrage ! 3rd day WA9

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia hi, is it possible to check if my virgin mobile is being moved over from using ee to Vodafone? My signal keeps dropping in and out....i was told this would be happening sometime this year.

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I sincerely hope there will be no need to contact beyond this fix date If we are going to be without service all weekend and already on day 3

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I did initially and then doesn't load the page Tried calling just automated sent me links to mobile the same links already checked and then hung up No estimated time of when will be fixed.. I guess it's with people finishing work and realising their service is down hmmm

  • ButterscotchDe6 Butterscotch But Christmas ❄ 🏳️‍⚧️ (@ButterscotchDe6) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia It's been gradually going down each month for the last year. To clarify all the devices I've used for tests are wireless however that does not excuse week long drops in the Kb ranges

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @jake74 @virginmedia Never worked for me either. According to the person I ended up speaking to, it's the same for anyone on a non-current standard package (discounted, previously available package etc) which is pretty much everyone.
