    A friendly engineer from @virginmedia unexpectedly came round today. - looked at bbband issue, ran some tests, waited for said time of normal bband crash. Nothing happened. Leaves, 15 mins later - outage occurs! Ring him, tells me spoken to network people and is following up.

  • louise_woodman Louise Woodman (@louise_woodman) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgraceful service. WiFi went off Sunday. Engineer came Wednesday and said it was fixed. Neighbours WiFi off. Came today messed with a box on the street and now it’s off again. Customer service said they’ll come again Monday. A week with no WiFi!

  • SafwanMullaaa SafTheOne (@SafwanMullaaa) reported from Bolton, England

    Thought my @virginmedia Internet went down again since I was scrolling on Instagram dark mode and thought nothing was loading! Then I remembered its the Blackout thing #Instagram

  • DrCEMJarvis 🌈Charles E Jarvis, PhD (@DrCEMJarvis) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    Yes there’s lots of other #virginmedia customers on the community forum who are also suffering from limited service. Thanks for ensuring I don’t feel alone.

  • CM_Manc Cray Mac (@CM_Manc) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I spoke directly to the engineers that were working and they have fixed the problem now thanks

  • Mozza0705 Morris (@Mozza0705) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is so poor and only getting half of what I should. Also the WiFi is non existent in the kitchen. Never had this problem with @skytv broadband. Poor.

  • seeninthestreet Marie Pattison (@seeninthestreet) reported from Manchester, England

    For goodness sake @virginmedia you’d think you’d wanna fix this for my vicar who regularly crashes out of a church service and is a bad advert for you to his entire congregation.

  • SCOTTCHORLTON Scott Chorlton (@SCOTTCHORLTON) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia The current issue has been resolved but the signal has been on and off for weeks now, horrendous especially when it forces me to not be able to work from home and have to travel 30 miles to the office. Seriously considering a change of provider after lockdown is over.

  • AdamMYates Adam Yates 🐝 (@AdamMYates) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia numerous broadband issues, been on to your tech team now for the 3rd time this morning - apalling service and now being told to wait 2 days for a fix 🤬

  • globalholidays David Brice (@globalholidays) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia. Terrible service in my area of sk7. Service goes down every afternoon. Your customer service people don't understand what's going on. #shambles #notgoodenough #getitsorted

  • DrCEMJarvis 🌈Charles E Jarvis, PhD (@DrCEMJarvis) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia it’s happened a little earlier today. Broadband Outage at 14:11!

  • DrCEMJarvis 🌈Charles E Jarvis, PhD (@DrCEMJarvis) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia It’s 24hours since I was told engineers would phone me about my bband problem. 72 hours since they failed to attend an appointment- what’s going on #virginbroadband #virginfail

  • CM_Manc Cray Mac (@CM_Manc) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia It saying my postcode is invalid for some reason. A neighbour has said his is down too apparently a virgin team have cut through the fibre whilst doing repairs. Nobody can come till Saturday which is a joke I have 2 young children 1 that cant access her schoolwork. Nightmare.

  • AdamMYates Adam Yates 🐝 (@AdamMYates) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia and here we go again - a myriad of coloured lights whilst the hub / broadband falls over again - but there are no issues... #rubbish

  • DrCEMJarvis 🌈Charles E Jarvis, PhD (@DrCEMJarvis) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    I spoke to a helpful engineer from @virginmedia on Wednesday afternoon. Got a text confirming a visit on Thursday 12-4pm, then #virginmediafail no one turned up. No improvement of service. #virginmedia.

  • DrCEMJarvis 🌈Charles E Jarvis, PhD (@DrCEMJarvis) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    I’ve just been told by a supervisor.@virginmedia that there is no point me raising a complaint b/c the complaints department will not get back to me. #virginmedia #fail
