  • anthony_murphy1 Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • Baynesi83 bay (@Baynesi83) reported from Mellor, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia How long before the Internet problem is sorted out in the BL1 area going to take?

  • BAC64 BAC (@BAC64) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia sucks ol16 again. what is it I'm paying for. Its impossible to work and impossible to watch netflix

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia BL1 2NJ Still having problems with disconnecting and connecting, been like this for 4 hours. I have reset my router numerous times

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • DougHall18 Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • stevelthompsom Steve Thompson (@stevelthompsom) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia new customer trying to register on your media app always comes up with an error code!!!! Not a great start......may cancel if this is how you roll ??

  • TheRealRagtag Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No email access for 3 days now on the blueyonder access. All I get is "Oops, this page is broken." System says nothing is wrong. Terrible. I have done a check, and it says everything is working correctly on BBand/Telly. ??? Area 01.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia If does now. 12:00. That's 17 hours without service.

  • LovecloughKev Kevin Kitten (@LovecloughKev) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Why is your WhatsApp chat so rubbish for the 4th time i have been kicked off. Terrible service

    @virginmedia I now can't sign in to my account

  • Haffertee Fiona Baker (@Haffertee) reported

    @virginmedia Then why did no one offer this tonight ? You can open one at 6pm tomorrow but I highly doubt it will happen . Just like the previous one never happened as it was not a chat link

  • secretyamabushi CJ (@secretyamabushi) reported

    @virginmedia I am not using your terrible website and chat either. A lovely UK call centre sold me the new contract, I expect a call off them asap else I’ll give my money to BT

  • CmdrSpace I don't want to say (@CmdrSpace) reported

    @virginmedia Contract ran out in May. Only noticed today when I checked the bank. 3 months of paying 42% more for the service, and insufficient movement from your customer service rep on the phone. For some reason, 14 years of loyalty doesn’t qualify me for the deal advertised on your website

  • DebbyB74 DebsB (@DebbyB74) reported

    @virginmedia Nobody working in customer services or is it just that your useless internet can’t connect? I don’t know how you dare advertise suggesting your service ever work!

  • JTFinnegan1985 James Finnegan (@JTFinnegan1985) reported

    @virginmedia same old internet! Just love paying for a service that just isn’t up to standard! More phone data used again!!

  • secretyamabushi CJ (@secretyamabushi) reported

    @virginmedia This needs to get sorted today. I want a call from the UK call centre, never ever faced such terrible customer service in my life your Philippines call centres are so rude.

  • Kingmini93 Kingmini (@Kingmini93) reported

    @virginmedia best way to get an update on what the hell is going on with my internet, it's been down for nearly 7 hours now. The check service status is just useless.

  • mrlively1 Jamie_J (@mrlively1) reported

    @virginmedia any chance of fixing the fault on the TV and Broadband that has been off all day! SM4 Morden area!! Your customer service is just as shocking as the tv and broadband I get ripped off for on a monthly basis.

  • EamonnSmythe Eamonn Smythe (@EamonnSmythe) reported

    @virginmedia Perhaps you can explain why the online checker said the tv problem would be resolved tonight and broadband tomorrow but now they both say the same time tomorrow afternoon.
