  • AckersStorm
    Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

  • ChrisFoxRacing
    Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

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

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

    @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.

    @virginmedia I have numerous emails of my complaint , all of them paying lip service so to speak .

  • gamepopper
    Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).

  • Slt4K
    SLT4K 👨🏻‍💻 🇬🇧 (@Slt4K) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯

  • WCONNOLLY2512
    William Connolly (@WCONNOLLY2512) reported from Manchester, England

    @beverleyturner @virginmedia Virgin Media had gone ****. Poor broadband, crappie TV channels and half don't even work.

  • anttaylor23
    Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported 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 👀

  • tonyj01
    Tony Jacobs (@tonyj01) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia seems to be down nationally. 1: tell us status 2: tell us when back on

  • louaze

    Skysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!

  • insidewrite1957
    Peter Thornton.🇺🇦 (@insidewrite1957) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    @eshelm @simonnread @virginmedia Worst people I’ve ever worked for By a distance

  • blokealex
    alex. (@blokealex) reported 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.

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

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.

  • nathantalbot
    Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported from Urmston, England

    (Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in B9?

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @bluecitygirl232 @virginmedia I had the same issue with them in December always down not reliable couldn’t WFH so binned them off went to BT and fingers crossed not had an issue to date

  • Woolfie30
    Howard Woolfenden (@Woolfie30) reported from Rochdale, England

  • Karamonkey1
    Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

  • OldhamBradd
    Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, England

    Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • SoloUtilitaRian
    UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported 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

    @Sargy7 @SkyUK Big companies know system loopholes and getting benefits from those system . Same situation is with Virgin media B-road band trap . Prices and services are at their disposal which they never invested upon . Absolutely unregulated .

    My internet provider is so **** that I’m now penalised in Overwatch because it started raining, are you kidding me @virginmedia ??? It was my FIRST MATCH. I even have one of your stupid boosters Absolutely abysmal

  • Trickyred59
    Andy Ward (@Trickyred59) reported

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Just had my monthly bill. £143. I'm assuming that next month the reduced charge will reflect this "functionality issue".

  • katie4249
    Catherine 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 (@katie4249) reported

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 The issue is not watching Sky sports. You cannot get the red button games via the browser or app!!

  • shelf_life64
    Andy Anderson 🇬🇧 Defund the BBC! ♋️ (@shelf_life64) reported

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Two weeks to fix this is wholly unacceptable…. I’m starting to suspect you’re having another spat with Sky or your engineers are all on holiday!! As you are well aware casting is not available from the Sky Sports app… A bill credit to all affected would be welcome for this!

  • Msenior89Senior
    Mark senior (@Msenior89Senior) reported
