  JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported 51 seconds 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.

  Is the WiFi down for anyone else in the #OL9 area? #Oldham #VirginMedia

  Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported 3 minutes ago from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

  @SkyUK My Sky package is slowly edging up. Some new customer deals from a couple of years ago have worsened discounts but... I'm still around £30 a month better off than when I was with Virgin Media. Never going back.

  Emily (@ErHes1997) reported 11 minutes ago from Timperley, England

  How can @virginmedia say "yes there's a problem in your area, we expect it to be fixed on Wednesday"... 5 days is a joke when you'll never see that money returned to you for lack of service provided

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 11 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.

• 
  Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported 12 minutes ago 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

  Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported 12 minutes ago from Dukinfield, England

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

• 
  Ray Morgan. NHS💙🇺🇦 (@Rayzor74) reported 12 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  Good start to the day with @virginmedia informing me my monthly bill is increasing by £15/month and I have until the 17th of April to decide on my options. That is £180 annually. Having been firstly a Nynex customer and a Virgin customer since the takeover think it may be time

  Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported 17 minutes ago from Urmston, England

  (Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in M6?

• 
  johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported 18 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  @virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔

  Howard Woolfenden (@Woolfie30) reported 29 minutes ago from Rochdale, England

  @virginmedia yet again my Internet isn't working. 18m on the old Internet and not one outage. now on the new and 'improved' service and yet another outage, so many outages already.... come on sort it out I'm paying good money for this......

  jimmy (@jimmysteamboat) reported 30 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!

• 
  UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported 33 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

  @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 👀

• 
  Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported 40 minutes ago 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

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 42 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

• 
  Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported 47 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia you have caused me nothing but hassle for months now. Your customer service team are completely useless.

  @jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.

  @virginmedia Sort out your **** internet 🛜 service. It’s been like that for 3 weeks

  not jay (@notjay92349724) reported 11 minutes ago

  @FuzziePieRat @virginmedia Mate, we had exactly the same same thing. Tried to reduce packages down (we were paying £131 a MONTH at the time) and we were assured our package had changed and we were paying SIGNIFICANTLY less. Our bill came through, no change…

• 
  PMAC (@BigPaul91) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia My connect keeps cutting out for 30 seconds to 5 mins due the signal one engineer said it was interference on the line the one yesterday said nope couldn’t see it … my entire 2026s relationship with Virgin/O2 has been a disaster

• 
  Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I still have not received a payment I should have received on referring my father to switch to Virgin and he should have had a payment too. Our broadband has been poor this week and I hope it will be better this week.

• 
  entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported 14 minutes ago

  @miaKJKJ22 @Gary1165 @virginmedia Working from home too. A real pain. They told me there was a problem in the area, then made up manifold times that it would be fixed. Often pushing forward the fix by a risible 56 minutes! Then a text yesterday saying it WAS fixed(app said perfect too)...when it obviously wasn't

  Just had to cancel virgin media fibre after 2 months, constantly dropping out and some times for hours, had to go back to sky which I wish we had not left now

• 
  TheRealCraig (@AnIndividualist) reported 19 minutes ago

  If @virginmedia had good deals I would’ve considered re subscribing. But cancelling our old email addresses without notice because we cancelled has caused so much trouble I certain won’t now

• 
  Dom Kane (@ClearlyOptional) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia - We pay a premium for your services and time and time again your service is down. thats us without access to a baby monitor, without access to baby health monitor - absolutely ridiculous. think it’s time for a change
