    @virginmedia not happy #VirginMedia landline forcibly converted to digital line after “fault” broadband outage 1am this morning sets off lifeline phone line warning. The point of having a big red emergency button is when there’s an emergency you press it and it calls for HELP!

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. I've only got one account with you and have used the same email - I have been receiving emails about my bills & offers etc but can't sign in online.

  • obendorf
    Simon Obendorf (@obendorf) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia No. Trying to upgrade to a faster broadband-only plan. Chat can’t do it because cancelling the landline I don’t use is heretical. Fastest broadband speeds require me to take a SIM I don’t want or need. Online tries to push a TV service. No one listens. Customer fumes.

    @virginmedia any problems in the LN6 area, your connection keeps dropping

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia @dev101 Your on-call Network support, who had to wait 18 hours to be sent the ticket, and then he had to endure 4 hours on the phone to India. 2 other households in area also affected. Offer of compensation £0 (issue occurred 15:30 17/9, finally rectified 18:30 19/9).

    @virginmedia Yes. It's odd, it's like I've still got some service but it comes up 'no internet connection' when I go to Google etc.

    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I’m still getting Mail saying it needs updating, but more importantly installers and CS need to ensure they’re installed correctly and why they’re needed. It’s not just for 999. 999 can take hours to attend Jane down the street can be here in minutes.

    Marc Hanheide (@MarcHanheide) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia tried calling you for 40 minutes now, no luck. Broadband issue in LN1 area. Can ping external servers but your DNS servers (194.168.4.100) is not responding/working. All our devices are affected, but service status says all good. Rebooted everything. Fix please!

    Changing ISP to Virginmedia; the stress & hours of my life lost, trying to resolve issues trying to register an account, & porting home phone number WOW! I'm informed their systems are unique, this = hassle. #virginmedia #consumers #shoponline

    @virginmedia Nice to see that you "Customer Services" are maintaining their historic levels of poor service. My contract comes to an end on the 19th of this month, I am wondering why I want stay with you. .... You were near bottom Uswitches recommended list

    Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Not a great start to Monday - @virginmedia is down, mobile hotspot not working, and as a freelancer who doesn't get paid when I don't work, losing much needed income while things are ££££ is very irritating 😞

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @SimonTa44447286 @virginmedia @simonkeenan007 With my discounts, my monthly payment was £63, end of discounts £169 + £4 price rise (discounts due to outage 18 months ago). Spent an hour haggling ... revises price to £68.

    @virginmedia I’ve given up. You’ve failed yet again to provide what I we needed. I’m not surprised. Virgin Media is fast becoming synonymous with this lack of service. I do NOT recommend you to friends and family.

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia This was 14 days ago (17/09/2020), and I cannot remember the website, and the network engineer advised (19/09/202) me it might 24 hours before it settled .... Since then it's been variable ....

    @virginmedia super hub 3 is not so super anymore, more lights flashing than the Christmas tree and a WiFi range as long as my arm, been intermittent problems since Friday. No one answers your phones and I can’t access my account online 😡 #virginmedia #broadband Grrrrrrrr

  • oh_so_boatie
    Jessica Boatright (@oh_so_boatie) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Yes, issues showing. I've had to go to a cafe to work - so now as well as lost hours of income I'm down bus fare and refreshments so that I can use the the WiFi.

  • EmcdNotts
    Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Going round in circles using 'support' options listed on App. Our broadband has been intermittent since yesterday afternoon. Restarted hub 3 times. Test still showing intermittent fault. Why do you make it so difficult to contact someone to check it's being sorted?

    @virginmedia please don't use Yodel @yodel241653 as a courier service. Pods not delivered today. Van stopped outside, and as I opened the front door he drove off without delivering the parcel. Now got to cancel plans for tomorrow to wait for parcel. Please don't use Yodel.

    @virginmedia why is my broadband off and why does this repeatedly happen? Your broadband service checker also does not currently work.

    @virginmedia To everyone with no tv channels - try switching your box off for 2 min then on again. Mine's not worked since thursday. The service checker this morning STILL says there's problems, but i've just reset the box and it's back on
