    Not sure if it was just me but, my @primevideouk just went a shit for a few mins. Kept kicking me out the game via my smart tv app so switched to app via @virginmedia box and it was stuttering slightly, like a dodgy stream. Rather annoying. #BURMCI #AmazonPrime #Amazon

  • MagicIce Magic Ice (@MagicIce) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @QueenieandBlue @RageDarling @virginmedia Im with virgin media mine goes down with really really bad weather like we are having now. But apart that i carnt complain about the service. Because my sky goes at the same time as virgin does in the bad weather.

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same problem we always have with your WiFi, it’s patchy at best. Even when I’m standing next to the box

  • andeenic Andy Nicoll (@andeenic) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Hi I have now chased up 4 times wasting countless pointless hours and it seems that I need to contact CISAS to get a response unless you can help. Ref number COM10411 f

  • drinkdevil40 Caggy  (@drinkdevil40) reported from Herne Bay, England

    @capiegirl @Janeopot @henriettak @mansellmum @1sthappysodme @Adrienne65 @owlbird @SkyIreland @virginmedia Boring weekend but then Francesca had ambulance sent to her yesterday as reacted to eggs, severe allergy. I was a wreck, but she’s ok now. Poor Sophie had to deal with this alone 😰

  • gadogrescue Guardian Angels Dog Rescue Ltd (@gadogrescue) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is very disappointing. Have nothing but problems but never get any help from you.

  • jimmygreen83 James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Hello, thank you for your quick reply. If i search via postcode it states there is a broadband issue but if i use my app it just states a tv issue. Have try rebooting twice and issue has stayed.

  • jimmygreen83 James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    Hi @virginmedia my internet has gone down in my house, it has been like it for about 2 hours now. I have the hub3, baselight is staying green, wifi light is staying green and the internet arrows are flashing green. Help please. Have turned off and on, didn't work.

  • jsfuller75 Jason Fuller (@jsfuller75) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia Is there a fix for your customer service as no one seems to want to help me on your messaging service.

  • andeenic Andy Nicoll (@andeenic) reported from Margate, England

    Three formal complaints to @virginmedia and three promises of a returned call within 24 hours. 3 fails out of 3. At least your appalling service is consistent

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    Hello @virginmedia, is there a way I can talk to someone about my WiFi problem this morning.

  • terryjordan38 Terry Jordan (@terryjordan38) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Do you actually have a customer service department

  • jimmygreen83 James Green (@jimmygreen83) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Issue via postcode has now gone back to green but my router is still green. Cheers

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia Hello again. Your WiFi is playing up again. Same problem as before, intermittent signal regardless of where in the house. Booster most likely needed. The ‘contact us’ option of your WiFi-tester app is also not working.

  • drinkdevil40 Caggy  (@drinkdevil40) reported from Herne Bay, England

    @1sthappysodme @capiegirl @Adrienne65 @Janeopot @owlbird @mansellmum @henriettak @SkyIreland @virginmedia I used one of them after birth of my first born as terrible complications, I went home with a walking stick after 2 weeks, I was 27

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    Morning @virginmedia, I’m starting to become a little fed up with your current business model. You take my money, but supply a less than reliable WiFi service. Will it take a cancelled direct debit to get your attention? Please fix. 😡

  • Pol77 Polly Danby (@Pol77) reported from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

    @virginmedia urgent help please. An extremely vulnerable lady’s landline is down. She has no log in details as these were set up by her late husband. Cannot get through to you by phone or by web chat. Please dm me with advice urgently, thanks

  • sheradondublin Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported from Margate, England

    @virginmedia The new box arrived, and the WiFi sorted itself out for now at least. The boosters are still generating the old network also. I’m planning on leaving everything as it is till it goes wrong again, then I’ll call.

    😂 Twitter Automation gone wrong... Take a look at this @virginmedia thread for a great example of Twitter automation gone wrong. 🤖 Automation < Customer service 😀

  • PaulDawson1701 Paul Dawson (@PaulDawson1701) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve spoken with your customer service team but they aren’t able to sort anything until the fault has been rectified

  • drkcmpbll RUNDMC (@drkcmpbll) reported

    Honestly can't believe how much @virginmedia is letting me down. 23/12 no broadband. Service update says it'll be fixed by 12pm 23/12, then pushed out to 12:25am 24/12. Now showing 12:00pm 24/12. I guarantee no one is out working to resolve right now. Down tools.

  • lovemojo1991 Daughter of the king ✝ the lion 🦁 of judah✝ 🕊 (@lovemojo1991) reported

    @virginmedia yet again WiFi not working....shocker

  • gazbill61 G D ‘Peng’ 🔥🔥😁 (@gazbill61) reported

    When is the tv coming back on for Fy3 7df, its been off for 3hours 30mins now #notconnected://www.virginmedia.com/help

  • OhThisBloodyPC Oh This Bloody Computer (@OhThisBloodyPC) reported

    @RobLainton @virginmedia Virgin grew by buying cable TV co's with incompatible systems, like a first draft Frankenstein with parts supplied by Noah. Once it had deceived the market over its 'State of the Ark' systems, admitting its problem was never an option. So it must lie, damn lie and advertise

  • thenitinsinha Nitin Sinha (@thenitinsinha) reported

    @VirginMediaIEPR I have been trying for last months and 10 days to get connection. Although wiring is done , your system shows broadband not available . My property manager has mailed as well . This is pathetic customer service . @virginmedia

  • gazbill61 G D ‘Peng’ 🔥🔥😁 (@gazbill61) reported

    @virginmedia **** service, no television Fy3 7df(which I pay for!!), no communication, freeview here I come #notconnected

  • AlanAudioMan Alan AB 🗣🎙 (@AlanAudioMan) reported

    @virginmedia Yep. Checked it twice...like Santa. Nothing in email, to which I'm now on hold to the 'Tech Team'. 57 minutes on a call, still waiting for a resolution. #Grinched

  • 19JRT93 JosephRichard (@19JRT93) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for reply. We have already called repair team, they were unable to help and then informed us that we would be at least 5 days without TV. So that’s the entire Christmas holiday without TV. They’ve been with VM for over 10 years and never had service this bad.
