  • nevynxxx nevynxxx (@nevynxxx) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia I understand your call centres are suffering, but 2 hours for text chat support and a phone line that 4 menu levels deep hangs up is not good enough. Massively annoyed and time wasted.

  • FunnyTrickster Vincent Brindle 🔶🌍🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@FunnyTrickster) reported from Burnley, England

    @jmtb18 @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria Issues in Burnley too. It's been up and down like a yoyo. TV box light keeps flashing too.

    @virginmedia Still nothing, we were told 24 hours and they would call but still no call, wondering if you can tell me how long this will take? Cause I'll cancel and go elsewhere

  • NickyRobbo80 Nicky (@NickyRobbo80) reported from Blackburn, England

    If 2020 was an Internet provider it would be @virginmedia Solve the problem of losing IP address by restarting router. It was restarting the router that caused it. Restarted anyway and now the router won't connect to the Internet and all devices say no IP address #stressed

  • Logical1966 Aaron (@Logical1966) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry this was for your service provider @YodelOnline not you

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Cracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks! And you can book a slot to fix it Why not invest your advertising budget in stopping it from breaking? Not to be smug but (touch wood) @virginmedia has never conked out!

  • cheftonymulgrew Tony Mulgrew (@cheftonymulgrew) reported from Ripponden, England

    @SheilaDillon @virginmedia Vodafone not much better waited 6 weeks to have my issue sorted. Only interested in profit not the customers

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia because you are providing a service that doesn't work, i presume i can leave without a fee

  • jodavidson65 Jo D #KaftrioNow (@jodavidson65) reported from Nelson, England

    @virginmedia very poor of you

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    You've out done yourselves today @virginmedia It's usually poor but your broadband today has been on a completely different level of poor

  • Logical1966 Aaron (@Logical1966) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia what the hell is the point of not having a team available for broadband faults but you can send a link to log on to your website- I can’t access your website because I my bloody broadband isn’t working are you stupid or something 🤬🤬🤬

  • scottburnley scott mitchell (@scottburnley) reported from Colne, England

    @virginmedia can someone please get in touch with me has your broadband after 7pm is absolutely crap and I've totally had enough of it now

  • courtsthomasx 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐚 (@courtsthomasx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia My Broadband has been down for quite a few days now. I have no received any text updates and would like to speak to somebody with regards to down time and to get an ETA of when it should be back up and running.

  • matt_stanny Matthew Stansfield (@matt_stanny) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp any chance you can sort the internet issues in BB11, it’s a nightmare at the moment!

  • xNasminx Nasmin Shabir ♡ (@xNasminx) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia Yes I always use the service status tool... But still signal is constantly dropping, which results in resetting the router . Not happy to say we pay £45 a month for just broadband alone and can hardly get online most of the time... It's frustrating

  • gsouthy gsouthy_25 🏆 LIVERPOOL FC 👊🏼 (@gsouthy) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia How are things?? Footpath left full of mud. Having to clean footwear off or remove before coming into the house! The whole length of the footpath in front of the houses where your workers have been is a disgrace. Not even rain has washed it clean!! Terrible standard of work! 😤

  • Dlenn93 David Lennon (@Dlenn93) reported

    @virginmedia So I ended up moving my hub into my office so that I could plug my PC directly into it (at the risk of reducing the WiFi signal to the rest of the property). Gettings wired speeds now of avg 580mbps... Still quite a way away from the 1gbps I'm paying for

  • EalesOnWheels alex (10 minute version) (@EalesOnWheels) reported

    @virginmedia VirginMedia internet seems to be down in AL4. It looks as if it is a localised issue. Any tips?

  • ElTel81 Tel W (@ElTel81) reported

    @virginmedia want to cancel my subscription but, just like all your other services been on hold for >30mins. Absolute joke. What's happened to your company?

  • SueThistle Sue Thistlethwaite (@SueThistle) reported

    @MartinSLewis @itvMLshow Thanks Martin. As ever great advice. Currently furious that @virginmedia are putting up my bill to £79 (100mgs, TiVo box line) which is more than 3 times their new customer 100mg only deal. Have spoken to them- go to £59. Gathering strength to move suppliers!

  • SueThistle Sue Thistlethwaite (@SueThistle) reported

    @virginmedia I wanted to see the discount in an email so I could understand the £ and tsandcs. I had trouble understanding the operative the line was very bad and a strong accent. I was not sure what was being offered and what I was being tied into. I felt pressured into accepting.

  • LawsonPamela Dr Pamela Lawson (@LawsonPamela) reported

    @virginmedia @WhichUK @guardiantech lost wifi 2 weeks ago. Can’t get thru to customer service. Neighbours same. Worst provider. Investigate please.

  • missbelluk Claire B (@missbelluk) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I have a virgin media sim, but my network is showing EE? Why is this?

  • StephenJLittle1 Stephen John Little (@StephenJLittle1) reported

    @virginmedia Even an indication of wait times, or where I was in the queue would help. A typical waiting times graph would also help.
