    @tricky1966 @virginmedia 12th August is the estimated date for it to be fixed! Service status page duesnt show this at all! I have had to contact them today

  • MollyPipping Moll (@MollyPipping) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia my TV and WiFi hasn’t recovered from a power cut earlier today (SK8). Done all normal checks/ procedures. Been on hold 1.5hours. Everyone in area having same problem and being told there’s ‘nothing wrong’. Nothing logged on postcode error website. Awful service!!

  • Oh_Hello_Studio Sandy (@Oh_Hello_Studio) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia Yes, rebooted as per advice we receive every time 😒 We've experienced the same issue repeatedly since the "Intelligent Wi-Fi" upgrade. Repeated outages however status always reports that there is no issue.

  • allensmith566 Allen Smith (@allensmith566) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Engineer came and replaced my box. Excellent service and I am a happy customer 👍

  • Alison_hh Alison Hesketh-Holt (@Alison_hh) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Media. I've never experienced such awful customer service in all my life!! If this isn't resolved I will be going to the national press. It seems a lot of people are experiencing the same problem. Your company should be ashamed of themselves!

  • rach_griff RACH / ♡ 🐝 (@rach_griff) reported from Middleton, England

    Day 4 of Netflix not working on @virginmedia !!!

  • MollyPipping Moll (@MollyPipping) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia still not working! Done another reboot, pinhole reset. Been waiting on the phone for another 30 minutes with no answer. Website still says no problems. Will 100% be leaving your services after this awful performance and lack of communication around a problem

  • lesley_win Lesley Wintle (@lesley_win) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia You need to keep your service status page updated. I checked that first, no issues apparently, then did the 10 min test, still not working so contacted you to be told there's a fault - very frustrating to be told to check the service status but it's incorrect!

  • MollyPipping Moll (@MollyPipping) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Still not working after pinhole reset. No tv and green bar flashing on router. Spending silly amounts on data in an attempt to contact you when I already pay a lot of money each month. Next door just told it will be fixed Monday. unacceptable service!

  • SheridanAlcock Shez 🐾 Ⓥ (@SheridanAlcock) reported from Manchester, England

    Day 2... No services from Virgin Media! Still fixing the problem.. that's 2 days we are not paying for 😡😡

  • lesley_win Lesley Wintle (@lesley_win) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia @tricky1966 I have this problem too - see my tweet. Your service status doesn't mention this fault - I have been informed by your messaging service it will be fixed by 12th August!!!! 4 days!!!

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia The ping is to slow when gaming, on my PC I get 350meg DL, on my xb1x I get 550meg DL, I think it's throwing my gaming out, it's just not worth bothering playing to get hammered because of ping, lag, whatever it is.

  • rossmitton84 Ross Mitton (@rossmitton84) reported from Bolton, England

    @David4Charnock @virginmedia Ha ha!! You’re getting help off my issue!! On hold for over an hour and live chat keeps disconnecting as no advisors are available!!

  • Alison_hh Alison Hesketh-Holt (@Alison_hh) reported from Manchester, England

    @mascotmike @virginmedia I'm fuming with them. I have never experienced such awful customer services in all my life. We're going to cancel with them and go to the national press if they can't prove the "so called phone call". I think half their customers have similar problems.

  • Nw38Wilson nick Wilson (@Nw38Wilson) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia good morning can someone from resolution team reactivate my service and wipe clear the balance on my account as I was mis sold the broadband in the first place which you haven't apologised for but will give a chance to u goodwill gesture clear account start afresh

  • DidymusBrush Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    Recently moved from a city centre apartment to suburbia. Had to lose my ever reliable @Hyperoptic connection for a @virginmedia package. Been working from home a few days in the last fortnight and it just likes to randomly cut out for periods without reason. JOY.

  • tjane44 Tracy.💗. &hubby.😍 x (@tjane44) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted, and been on services, says no problem but there is no Wi-Fi or phone..

  • PelosiSte SP (@PelosiSte) reported from Stockport, England

    @SkyHelpTeam it’s a bit of rain, yet my tv has gone off. Amateurs, never happened with @virginmedia

  • RSBWFC79 Rob Smith (@RSBWFC79) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia told issues with your broadband won't be fixed till the 9th. 3 days of unusable service so far. Not acceptable. #SuperDud

  • allensmith566 Allen Smith (@allensmith566) reported from Bolton, England

    Properly raining. I hope my @virginmedia engineer can sail through and fix my TiVo box 🌧

    I see #virginmedia is trending this morning, due to the outage. More like #SulliedVirginMedia🙄 Back on now, thankfully.

  • EmmaBlurbs Emma McHugh (She/Her) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@EmmaBlurbs) reported

    @Hannah_L98 @virginmedia Thanks, just because they're reporting it went down at 1am.

  • The_FFrey Jeff Baskett (@The_FFrey) reported

    @crosby_clive @virginmedia perhaps status updates, an acknowlegement that there is an issue so people aren't trying to troubleshoot themselves, you know, general customer service stuff... Try directing your anger at the issue rather than at disapointed customer

  • surlydev Surly Dev (@surlydev) reported

    @Suspect10259228 @biglesp @virginmedia it has come back up, however the tweet they put out announcing issues is getting some choice replies

  • SoniaPoulton Sonia Poulton (@SoniaPoulton) reported

    @virginmedia This is a prolonged issue. I have had a number of conversations with your account about this. Virgin asks for too much money and does not supply the premium service for it. I am looking elsewhere because I can no longer rely on your service with my work.

  • TheMrDarn Darnie (@TheMrDarn) reported

    @virginmedia are you aware of an issue that is affecting broadband services for Virgin Media customers as well as your contact centres? Are your teams currently working to identify and fix the problem as quickly as possible? And do you apologise to those customers affected?

  • SarahLooker4 SarahL💚 (@SarahLooker4) reported

    @virginmedia No Internet mobile data off virgin mobile very slowly and your prices are going up for what service exactly?

  • ToonFleet Toon Fleet (@ToonFleet) reported

    @virginmedia you lot are full of crap don't forget half bills this April if not i will report you to @TradeStandards and move to SKY OR BT SO GET YOUR CASH OUT NOW.

  • steve_fall Steve Fall 💙 (@steve_fall) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the update (bit late) - now my connection is working. Why did I loose service for a few hours this morning? - Prevented me from working on my day job #virginmediadown #compensation

  • newevolution911 Andres☯Martinez911 (@newevolution911) reported

    @virginmedia That was some outage! Absolutely nothing worked.
