@virginmedia Got someone to call me back. Explained everything very slow and crashes when two people zoom. Will take a week to get someone out only because they think it’s fully broken! I wait with bated breath! 🤔

@virginmedia Just signed a new contract and I wanted to retain my old landline but @virginmedia changed my number without informing me, yet my internet is not working. I’ve got deadlines to submit my schoolwork. My girls are also not able to study,

@virginmedia Your customer service tops the worst ever experienced. Paying for top connection and receiving intermittent and weak broadband signal. Hour long waiting times on the phone and evasive explanations. Absolutely shambles

@virginmedia Chatting with you is not solving my problem. This is day 6 with no internet to work in my house. Your company took it upon themselves to change my landline without informing me. I have called the old provider to find out if the line is still available with BT

@virginmedia Yes, but every time I’ve tried a web chat with you I have never received a response. I was waiting 4 hours on Wednesday last week and no one answered after the bot

@virginmedia When I eventually got someone to deal with the issue was after waiting on the line over an hour, I was told someone will contact me within 24hrs. I’m still waiting since last week Thursday.

@virginmedia All the customer service people I've spoken to (by mobile phone) have been very nice and tried their best with tests and notes on the file etc. The work on cabling seems to be a law into itself and repeatedly tried & fails, as far as I can gather, to though that is only surmise.

@virginmedia The local council resurfaced the pavement outside of our front garden wall shortly before these problems arose, so we're wondering if they damaged the cables there. I informed the engineer who came and customer services about that.

@virginmedia I have now been without broadband for over 24 hours and on your service status page, it says I have no problem. When I call, you admit the problem but give no indication when it will be resolved. When can I expect broadband in Nw3?

It is truly frustrating to be without internet for 5days. You promised 24hrs call back. Never happened. Shameful @virginmedia

@virginmedia I think it's a standard engineer visit to address the broadband outage. We're hoping it won't lead to another cycle of cabling attempts, although I understand that things have to take their course and hopefully get there in the end.

@virginmedia All this have been discussed and no there are no known issues in the area. Since the date the tv box was installed. We were told it will take 48hrs for the landline to start working but it never did. I tried calling so many times but only customer service for sales picks.

@virginmedia Hi john, no there isn’t. All status pages and troubleshooter told me it was my devices at fault not the network, yet your colleague told me on phone it was an ‘area issue’ (unclear where) and would not say more other than 5-7day interruption. Can you DM me for my phone number?

Abroad right now, and I have no service. I'm with @virginmedia and from what I'm reading here on Twitter it's a national outage? Any idea when it might be back? It seems like it's been going on for hours now.

@edwardrussell @virginmedia Down in Exeter, Devon. I can access Facebook, and my emails (Gmail). Some websites load eg BBC News, others don't. As others have experienced can't use mobile data to access their status page. This fuxks up my working from home. Thanks @virginmedia

Widespread #virginmedia down, including their own website. Suggests a DNS issue. @virginmedia - can you login using (non-virgin) mobile and send a status tweet please.
