@virginmedia I honestly can't deal with being passed around departments again. The problem is the WiFi is weak upstairs and I'm paying for a product thats not fit for service. You advertise intelligent pods to boost connections, all I want is to order one to resolve the issue.

Our phone lines and internet are down at our Wakefield office at the moment due to a national Virgin media issue. We have been advised that this is trying to be rectified as soon as possible and when we have an update from them we will update our social media platforms.

@virginmedia Checked l the internal cabling and all right etc so hopefully just a lose wire somewhere at the cabinet or something the engineer can easily fix. Is there any refund due to lack of service? I pay £67 a month. Can offset that against my mobile phone data

@virginmedia Having a hard time maintaining why I’ve remained so loyal. I’ve been going through a little bad time and ask for help as you publicise only to be treat like a third class citizen. Not happy my problem needs sorting today

@virginmedia It was working fine, then went off and came back but the hub was flashing green quite quickly. When it renegotiates it's usually slow and steady green flash but this was really quick

2 calls on landline from Asia, using dummy UK phone numbers, pretending to be from Virgin Media, telling me of a problem with the security of my router. Neither liked it when I told them their mother and father would be deeply ashamed if they knew what their son was doing.

@virginmedia Day 3 without broadband now :( All the service status links provided are unavailable as well. The promise yesterday of it being up and running by 5pm is long overdue... so frustrating and none of the service links provided work anymore either to check progress!

@virginmedia what has been going on with your broadband in SM2 over the last few weeks? (About 7 to 8mbs). Today it's down again. I would like some money back without going through your awful call centre. And for anyone else, who is a good replacement that won't cost a fortune?

@simonnread @virginmedia A colleague of mine in Bracknell has just said her Virgin media broadband is down too.

@virginmedia I do cad drawings and am unable to access the servers anymore. IT have mapped them which i am then able to work on but then am having problems when xrefs are remapped. They want to know if there is some sort of software protection solution is breaking the DNS resolution.

(@Tesshan8211) reported
@virginmedia works being carried out on the line today. SMS about it sent yesterday. I work from home and I cannot even use Giffgaff as a hotspot. Working on the line there as well. No notice. You own both companies and this is ridiculous after the 48h+ outage from last week.

(@sallymunden1) reported
@virginmedia Is there anything enabled on my line that might be some sort of DNS protection of forcing my devices to use a particular DNS service? If there are then can this be disabled so that they can test again from the network?

@virginmedia I’ve not been able to find where to talk to someone about this order/missing delivery. Rather than sending the link to your help page can you pls direct me on how I can find out what is happening with this order.

Busy morning…, @Taxiapp_UK_ (new app because Freenow let us down) turns out to have been designed by an idiot, @virginmedia broadband is not working for the second time in four days, and we’re told its because we are old, and not up for new technology? Rubbish; needless stress

My ongoing #broadband problems with @virginmedia are continuing, with the service so inconsistent now it's virtually useless. Are there any broadband providers that can guarantee continuity of service?

(@CashQuestions) reported
@Alanol1 @simonnread @virginmedia like, I said, not a recommendation. TBH I find it astonishing service from these companies can STILL be so poor. We have huge mobile blackspots in towns. Shops can't use credit card verification. I can't get so much as a 2g signal in my kitchen 😳 Better service in darkest Peru!
