  Nick Lowden (@nick_lowden) reported 1 minute ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia can’t get on service checker as app says it is out of service. Internet has gone down in M20 ?? When should it be fixed?

• 
  Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported 2 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Hi there, I was told I would receive my replacement broadband by today and still no indication of when it’s going to arrive. Any help?

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 4 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.

  Anyone available at @virginmedia please? Your website is shocking for trying to get in touch with customer services / live chat. Thanks

  Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported 17 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀

  UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported 18 minutes ago from Bolton, England

  With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

  Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported 23 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.

  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 24 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia Yes currently showing resolution time of 0230 04/11 this is a really poor service it has been off for the majority of the day

• 
  Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported 29 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.

  Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported 30 minutes ago from Dukinfield, England

  @virginmedia Not as yet. Just that my postcode seems to be affected when checking service status

• 
  Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported 33 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

• 
  Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported 35 minutes ago from Atherton, England

  @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

• 
  Laura May (@Laura_May_Ness) reported 39 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  Hi @virginmedia I have just moved into a new apartment where Wi-Fi is included. I have registered as a resident and I have received a pre-contract email but no account number and I am unable to connect to the Internet. Can you help me set things up?

• 
  alex. (@blokealex) reported 50 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

• 
  Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported 58 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  Been on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.

  JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported 59 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @stetopping Remember you did the piece late last year about Virgin Media Broadband being out for a day? It's now been down for six days in some parts of Manchester. Six full days and not a word from the company except automated messages.

• 
  Rach (legacy fan) (@Miniboom2) reported 59 minutes ago from Salford, England

  Ah @virginmedia with this up and down service today you are really spoiling us!

• 
  Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported 60 minutes ago from Bramhall, England

  @virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.

  @alan_reddish @virginmedia Day 34 here. And no proper answers such as whether any engineers have actually been out to try to fix things. Just stock answers from the @virginmedia script.

  Mountain Walker 🏔 (@percesonator) reported 4 minutes ago

  @caz_fizz @MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin media, awful company.

  Chris Wiper (@chris_wiper) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @Bigdeano88 Hi @virginmedia I am experiencing the same issue?

• 
  a staunch advocate of things (@fahadiiae) reported 7 minutes ago

  @Johnty14 @virginmedia That’s why i never walk out the front door, sends a signal to the burglars that im not in. Best to rappel down a garden side upstairs window

• 
  Jenny Do Nascimento (@jdonascimento) reported 10 minutes ago

  I moved house on August 28th and Virgin Media has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. @Virgin #England

  ArtVandaley (@dothefunkgibbon) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Instead of silly twitter replies , when you know there is a big outage why don't you publish it on the website ? Have a message on the phone line also , would solve a lot of problems . Your phone lines were overwhelmed yet that could have been prevented .

• 
  Our Electric World (@O_E_W) reported 10 minutes ago

  @TheEvEngineer @gigaclear @MartinSLewis I used to get the same with Virgin Media when it was our only option. Simple solution is to swap and change to the cheaper deals. I got an Orbi mesh router a while back. It should help simplify our next swap as it keeps the same network name whatever company we’re with.

  Seren 7 (@Seren_7) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia your online chat to us hasn’t worked for over 6 weeks. I have only been able to cancel today after being on a 1 hour call. Please advise when my account will be credited?

  @virginmedia can you help me cancel a engineer booking as everything is working now

  Virgin Media has such crap service honestly. No Internet for one week is just not good enough @virginmedia.
