    @virginmedia Wish I could tell you it was better. But the internet is going on and off every few minutes. The service has been good for the last couple of months but since yesterday evening it has been terrible. Sorry.

  • paboy113 Paboy (@paboy113) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Broadband is so frustrating. Family going nuts! I’m sure VM staff are trying their best to fix but not good enough. Been on off on off in BT4 (Belfast) for weeks. Router switched on and off with no improvement. Seriously thinking of closing top home package account.#virginmedia

  • Mark_G_J_R Mark McCourt (@Mark_G_J_R) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia BT5 Belfast 7 hour outage, any chance we could get an estimate on when this will be fixed, or even an acknowledgement from your status checker that there is a problem, constant problems for the past month.

  • Domsball Dominic Bryan (@Domsball) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia It was showing a fault this morning but it now tells me everything is fixed. However the WiFi continues to come and go ever few minutes. I have reset twice but there is still a problem ongoing from 10.00 last night.

  • ph_otographer Belfast Snapper 🌈 N Hero S (@ph_otographer) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Calls and texts are fine data is the problem can't even use the old SIM it has been cancelled! Tried getting through on 789 but just can't get through!

  • Chlochlo2234 Chloé (@Chlochlo2234) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’m not sure what your system is for replying to these but I’ve been trying to contact you for days. I’m being ignored whilst more recent queries are being prioritised & answered. Broadband is still not working. Can’t work from home at all now. FIX IT.

  • darrenMaginnes Darren Maginnes (@darrenMaginnes) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia what’s the issue with your internet, this is two weeks in a row that you’re servers have had problems, how do you feel taking customers money and them not being able to use it then putting the charge up!!!

  • ph_otographer Belfast Snapper 🌈 N Hero S (@ph_otographer) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia They left me to fend for myself, the new sim wiped out my APN settings, @virginmedia were no help at all, got settings from a third party 😱

  • Mark_G_J_R Mark McCourt (@Mark_G_J_R) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @creppermint @virginmedia 2/ maintenance or scheduled maintenance, but just turning it off no warning when people are trying to work from home is just poor service. The website is useless, no faults showing and call centres closed, no way to contact them...

  • Rightpeg PeteB (@Rightpeg) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    Worst part of being on hold to @virginmedia is having to listen to Coldplay ☹

  • rnelson7271 Richard (@rnelson7271) reported from Dromore, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia were you able to check the mast in Dromore to see if there is an issue

  • Chlochlo2234 Chloé (@Chlochlo2234) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland
