    @CurlyTazzi @BelleDameFolle @ThreeUK @virginmedia I haven’t had anything but great service from them. Blistering fast internet speeds all the time and never an outage in 4 years. Must be your dodgy area.

  • dragonlovingLFC Lisa January (@dragonlovingLFC) reported from Bromley, England

    Trying to watch the footie on the @virginmedia app. Watch the first few mins then signs me out. My correct login doesn't work. Makes a change from their dodgy signal. Fecking useless

  • kayfourbee kylie4bob (@kayfourbee) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia no service in N16, or much of London and the service status page is down. Time to wake up the press team I thihk.

  • SophieHTayler Sophie (@SophieHTayler) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Online it says no issues, on the phone it says there are issues in this area

  • JimGiordan Jim Giordan (@JimGiordan) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Broadband but changing my DNS settings fixed it, would be useful if your diagnostic tools reported back that the problem was with your DNS servers

    Virgin Media’s shit service strikes again at the weekend...was about to watch a film on Amazon Prime!!! @virginmedia

  • jdaykin Jerry Daykin (@jdaykin) reported from London, England

    @MichaeljonF Good question... just having a bit of an iffy connection last few weeks. I have a full on Google WiFi Mesh network... tried to iron out a couple of dubious hacks in the system... plus I’ve upgraded the core hub to the Nest WiFi Router now. Starting to suspect it’s Virgin Media 😂

  • Nico_Macdonald Nico Macdonald (@Nico_Macdonald) reported from Poplar, England

    @tomfenn8 @elondems There's a lot @virginmedia does well, particularly on the setup, online configuration and admin sides. But when it goes wrong they fall apart. After 4mnths of this we went @Hyperoptic and never looked back. VM uninterested in my feedback on its failings. As to the street boxes...

  • ConfidingGoblin Luke William Reardon (@ConfidingGoblin) reported from Tottenham, England

    Is @virginmedia really down again. Need to sort a reliable internet provider 😠

  • tb_doc Will Ricketts (@tb_doc) reported from Merton, England

    Shit just got real! Not only am I self-isolating, but my @virginmedia WiFi keeps going down #FirstWorldProblems 😱

  • deb_mae_ellis Deborah 👩‍💻 (@deb_mae_ellis) reported from Poplar, England

    @GingernutHeg @virginmedia @virgvimedia Yeah I got scammed can’t believe how stupid I was #embarrassing

  • joybrenda Brenda Franco (@joybrenda) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia , Hi is there a problem with Virgin mobile, as txt messages are taking about 4 hours to appear. Thought it was one offer on 5th march, but just received txt sent about 9.30 last night.

  • Theoryjoy Dr Tom Moore 🏳️‍🌈 🇪🇺 (@Theoryjoy) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia It couldn’t happen at a worst time. Last time it was down there days and was completely confused by the statutory compensation scheme.

  • littlebav Bav (@littlebav) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia shocked by your CS staff mis-selling me a upgraded product for £57 then getting a upgrade letter for £87. Called 3 time and they can’t seem to fix it. Not happy how bad I’ve been treated.

  • apoltix Christian Rasmussen (@apoltix) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. I’ve reset the hub a few days ago and it’s just as slow after. I have made no changes to my setup.

  • AlexHNGilbert Alex H.N.Gilbert (@AlexHNGilbert) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia @trevkaneswaran Mine is brand new and cannot transmit a Wi-Fi signal twenty feet into the next room, and no, I don’t live in a bomb shelter lined with lead. Your customer service is appalling and your kit is shit

  • jameshirsz James H (@jameshirsz) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Service is available in the area, completed the engineer form 2 times in last 8 weeks. Builders confirmed that engineers were already there. Everytime I contact sales I am asked to fill out the same engineering visit form. Asked if they can talk to a engineer. They said no.

  • tvarsanyi Toby Varsanyi (@tvarsanyi) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia No there are no issues and it seems to be working again now. The service of late has become really inconsistent and unreliable.

  • bromleybill Bill Torrance (@bromleybill) reported

    @virginmedia @PaulaJHowarth Excuse me @virginmedia, if you are defaulting on your obligation to provide your customer with a service you have contracted for, she should have every right to terminate without penalty #unfaircontractconditions

  • mbarnett87 Mark Barnett (@mbarnett87) reported

    @virginmedia Please fix your cable / broadband.

  • L0SH none (@L0SH) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, the link doesn't work but the service checker on your website is now saying that you're doing work in the area today and tomorrow and there'll likely be no service? Is that true? I have my PhD defense scheduled over zoom tomorrow morning! - I need a broadband connection!

  • JasonAWise Jason Wise (@JasonAWise) reported

    What is going on with @virginmedia at the moment. Been having repeated internet issues over the last few weeks. Now it seems to have completely stacked it. It's taken me 20 minutes to just login to the router. I'm not the only one in #Aylesbury with this problem.

  • BowlerLar Lar Bowler (@BowlerLar) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on with your internet? Have serious probs since Friday. Done a diagnos on Friday & there was DNS server issues, done speed test there, my laptop and phone, both 10ft away from the router. 500 mg line but.... Phone on 5g=50.83mbps Laptop on 3g=5.43mbps

  • xlizagx Liza G (@xlizagx) reported

    @virginmedia Come on Virgin media. How can you pass the buck to the “community” to find a resolution?! Surely if it’s a technical issue you should be sorting this. It’s been days with plenty of complaints and this is your response. Terrible. #VirginMedia

  • 82ladyK Kirsty Richards (@82ladyK) reported

    @virginmedia the network is down in my area but instead of alerting me, I had to call in and get an automated message! How am I supposed to work?!! Mega stressful Monday morning. #finchley #N12 #fail

  • xlizagx Liza G (@xlizagx) reported

    @virginmedia I have not made any changes. Has Virgin made any changes to this in the last few days? As stated many people here with virgin internet are having the same problem.

  • leanne_wayland1 Leanne Wayland (@leanne_wayland1) reported

    @virginmedia We still have no WiFi. TV is back. I care abiy the fact that we couldn't watch the football last night because of your crappy service. And I know we wernt the only ones.

  • mbarnett87 Mark Barnett (@mbarnett87) reported

    Can a day go by without @virginmedia going down / not working. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
