    @philipaston44 @Channel4 @tvmoneybags I have Virgin Media and watched it this morning on their catch up service. Won’t do any spoilers!

    @virginmedia Come on Virgin Media!! Internet down for me but not my neighbour?? Working from home is an absolute nightmare, I also have teenagers to contend with and no internet!!! #BT8

    Margaret Dunlop (@lab_animal) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia any idea when the issues will be resolved in the BT14 area ? The fault status on the app is still saying due fixed at 10am !

    @virginmedia Also, on the Virgin Media support forums, loads of people complaining text cancelling isn’t working either, hence I wrote.

    @virginmedia No! It's your issue with your equipment. You should be keeping me, as a valued customer, informed. I've spent hours listening to crap music waiting to get information about this. Then being lied to. Do better.

  • Hudd84
    Conor Huddleston (@Hudd84) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    No Internet for 2 days now @virginmedia no facility to speak to anyone, book a technician or anything else for that matter. Your help text is quite frankly useless in this situation. Please provide a method to get this resolved ASAP. Awful service.

    @virginmedia since my virgin mobile UK signal has been shifted from piggyback Vodafone to @O2 it has been a complete disaster, constant signal dropping, constant WiFi calling cutting. This is before my account has been transferred to O2. Complete and utter rubbish

  • JoshMainka

    @JohnWant6 @virginmedia I’ve got the same in Belfast BT5, @virginmedia network down, “C133 Network Availability” error

  • Broc_Boyd
    Broc (@Broc_Boyd) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Belfast BT6 no issues showing on service checker but no connection

  • DenMagic
    Den (@DenMagic) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    Down again @virginmedia in BT17. Came back on but I am paying for a service that cuts off several times a day. Not on.

    Jazzyspurs (@jazzyrath3) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia your broadband service has been s**t the last 4 days in the BT8 area. Any chance of a fix as I am trying to work from home and having to use hotspot on my phone to ensure I can stay online. A trip to BT when my contract is up.

  • aaronmacn
    Aaron (@aaronmacn) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia if I’m gonna follow you support service, to text a problem to you, surely me waiting 48 hours later with no reply is a bit too long?

  • Conor1971
    Sam “Ace” Rothstein 🇪🇺 (@Conor1971) reported from Dunmurry, Northern Ireland

    @martinmcnally53 @virginmedia It’s supposed to be some super fast internet but it’s broken more than it works and can’t change because of the contract

  • DJJarlath
    🎧Jarlath🎙️ (@DJJarlath) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia can you please let me know if there is a problem with my internet connection BT36 5HF Northern Ireland

  • nadean_ni
    Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia It may be an issue you're already aware of but it's going on for 3 days now and not even as much as an email to explain why.

  • mfearonmusic
    Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia And I was also advised if it wasn’t resolved soon I should show the contract agreed to ofcom. Hopefully you can fix this or escalate it, thanks.

    @virginmedia Still No one has contacted me. Poor service from @virginmedia poor broadband speed sand now poor customer service 👎👎👎

    @virginmedia Multiple people across different parts of the city I’d say yes there was an issue. 14hours ago. But I’m not reporting a fault I’m making a complaint.

    @virginmedia @EuroTiggion Just wondered why my bill is the same and and yet we had 3 days of no service here!!

  • KathyMi25429227
    Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported

    @virginmedia Paying a premium for a poor service...why is it impossible to actually speak to anyone?? Wait time unacceptable

  • neilontour
    Neil Willett (@neilontour) reported

    @virginmedia your service is a joke at least half of my chanel’s are either not working or are very glitchy not the first time this has happened either

  • Benleo
    Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported

    Congrats to @virginmedia for being perhaps the WORST company I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with in Britain. Three engineer visits, five plus calls to Indian call centres, and still you can’t activate the TV contract you upsold me when I simply called to get my connection back. Awful, awful business model.

    Uilleam Cameron 🏉 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 (@youlum) reported

    @Benleo @Christi61144576 @virginmedia What a shame you had such a bad experience. I’ve always had excellent service from them. And that’s from whenever they brought cable to my street 15 - 20 years ago.

  • CFCCath
    CFC Cathy (@CFCCath) reported

    Been a customer for 20 years and intermittent signal for last 48 hours on @virginmedia and prices going up By 25%. Time for us to part our ways methinks …

  • Mat_Man_Miracle
    Andy Nightingale (@Mat_Man_Miracle) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia They are without a doubt the worst. I'm in a cable area and they jack the price up every 6/12 months and send a letter out confirming. Had an issue they never, ever sorted despite promises and engineers saying it would be. Never again.

  • Babe212426
    Margi (@Babe212426) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia I got rid of Virgin it was very expensive and the call centres! Terrible service!

  • UpTheVibration
    England My Country I Love You (@UpTheVibration) reported

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia I've always found them to be really good, been with them years, never a problem, broadband connection is great - we're high usage, and this year they even emailed me to let me know they were keeping my existing discount when my contract was up, I usually renegotiate each time

  • glenn_coin
    Glenn Edwards ⚽️🥊🦮 🇬🇧 (@glenn_coin) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia It’s the only option I have that doesn’t use Openreach lines, which are crap. They were terrible when they were NTL as well, seems like nothing has changed.
