    @cyclingbetting @virginmedia Had a similar issue before Christmas. One of their engineers came out, changed router cable and some settings on router. Works champion now

    @virginmedia Thanks, do you have an ETA of when you’re issue will be resolved? Many of us could of purchased this game with a different streaming service if we knew you would be having the same issues with red button as per usual

    @beardedian @VirginMediaCorp Then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Virgin Media. The only thing that is stopping me leaving them is losing my emails. Going to look into an alternative solution to that problem tomorrow

    @virginmedia Advertises the best fastest and most reliable internet you can get but all you get is buffering. Tried to call support team all you get is automated options, please select your option blah blah and all you get is we will send you a link. I want to speak to a human!

    @virginmedia TS17 down too

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I wouldn't recommend your media connect app its awful, the booster you sent out does exactly zero, as for blackspots around the house that would be anywhere in the house more than 1.5m from the hub, all the software in the world won't polish the turn you call a superhub

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No, just continue to ignore me as they have no idea how to fix it

  • MillingtonJulia
    julia millington (@MillingtonJulia) reported from Marske-by-the-Sea, England

    @virginmedia please can you confirm is there a wifi connection problem in the TS11 area?

    Jonny Dearlove (@jonnydearlove) reported from Middleton St. George, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Weve just moved house and are trying to install a new router but house connections look out of date. What is the best contact for someone to help with this as may need someone to come out?

    @virginmedia My services are suspended. I am housebound,no tv no internet. I only ask for an extension to further my services for one week but company rules and non-existent customer service is really upsetting me. I’ve been a loyal customer and feel betrayed

  • AllpointsTV
    AllpointsTV - Jamie (@AllpointsTV) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes , and it says no issues and then asks to check my equipment , this test says there is an issue with my equipment and I should check again in 24 hours so an engineer can be arranged . This has now been saying check back in an hour for the last two hours

    @vonobox @stepickering @virginmedia It's my job… it's the same as anything other work from home job I've never had this problem before so I never though of needing a back up hotspot ect.

    @virginmedia I've been on hold four 1hr 20 mins. I need to cancel my account. Please reply

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Wireless mainly, even though the device is right next to the router. This is the 3rd day in a row - never had this problem in the 10yr of been a customer

    @virginmedia @dakotafiction Same here ts10, broadband is down, your status says no issues!

  • AllpointsTV
    AllpointsTV - Jamie (@AllpointsTV) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia so trying to get an engineer to fix my 1gb internet after days of it running at sub 200mb and disconnecting at midnight it’s now been off for over a day . I just kept being told try again in one hour

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I've done this many times previously and does nothing, the most recent request to switch it from modem mode is so you would process my complaint with ofcom which in turn means I'm without WiFi for 30 days unless standing on the "superhub"

  • mark770
    Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia My issue is bband been down since Thursday night and Friday a tech visit for this morning between 8 and 12. Due to an outage at your end, the visit was incorrectly cancelled as your records showed as "now fixed". We didn't find this until contacting yourselves after 12 today

    @virginmedia VM! I need your help. Since the supposed digital switch over, my vulnerable, elderly parents landline hasn't worked. Over the last 2 days I've spent 3 hours on the phone to be told by your CS that the line is fine. I need a solution!

    Luke Hayes (@Lukeytoons) reported

    Why can't you cancel a contract with @virginmedia like you can a subscription service. I.e you select you want to cancel and from the contract end date you lose service. Keep being told i need to phone 30 days before #cancel #contract

  • mandychoccy
    Coffinsandme 击🦇🐀 (@mandychoccy) reported

    @virginmedia Yet again having issues with pixelation and signal. This has now been going on for 2 years. 4 box changes, all new wiring in and out, 2x new hubs, new cables to main cab, main cab supposedly cleaned up, other local ex users disconnected from cab. I am so frustrated.

    @virginmedia @mobily_uk Agree, it’s so stupid, wasting everyone’s time!

    Rich Brady (@RichTigheBrady) reported

    @virginmedia It came back up but only after being down for 48 hrs! No reason! Happens every 4-6 weeks. There were no registered outages! So frustrating
