    @skytv due to Virgin media issues, couldn't watch the final episode of " and just like that" , screen pixated. When will you repeat so I can watch/record. #virginmedia

    @virginmedia you have now postponed an installation scheduled for 4th November to Christmas Eve! Can’t see that happening. Maybe someone actually based in the UK might bother to contact me about this? Minded to cancel otherwise. Not acceptable service.

    @virginmedia Its magically started to work on ethernet but it's not giving out a WiFi signal? What is going on?

    I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected

    @virginmedia No issues reported. But 7 houses locally reporting outages on local forums. This is happening frequently.

    @virginmedia I would not have used these terms as I didn’t know them however I presumed that all the necessary work would be done in the background. Why would I keep the landline with Virgin when I was VERY UNHAPPY with the service provided

  • Barchetta66
    Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia So that’s it. We’re still no closer to solving this issue than we were when it went down at the beginning of the week. Absolutely dreadful service.

    @virginmedia Looks like there are issues that need to be resolved hopefully by tomorrow.. Is this something that might be fixed sooner and am I able to seek compensation?

    @virginmedia, your app does not seem to think there's a problem with the internet in area 21. I think different. Can you check?!

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England

    I called @virginmedia back and they are now saying they won’t be able to install my internet until February 15th, a month after they sent me the modem. They’ve already activated my account and are charging me, but are telling me that shouldn’t have happened and they can’t fix it.

    Steven Kraan (@drawing_daily) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin Media, I’m trying to pay my monthly broadband bill online but when choosing pay bill it keeps redirecting me to your help page, so I can’t pay atm. When will this be fixed (won’t be paying late fees). Many thanks 🙏

  • _RhysThorne

    @virginmedia have to be *the* most unreliable WiFi providers. 2 days with no internet and it’s still not working!

    @virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

    @virginmedia hi, received my new phone. Except there’s no 4G/5G showing up even though I can send messages, go on social media and I can’t access sky bet. Is there any solution to this?

    Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported from London, England

    .@virginmedia hi virgin, we've not had internet all day and absolutely need it for work. Can you give an update for why this is our network status?

    Michael Davies (@snaggygecko) reported

    @virginmedia can not believe that a agent wanted to factory reset the router when a customer calls up with an issue he I have a errors on bbc and slow speeds , even though I work for virgin media . Absolute nightmare need to get a engineer out to resolve the issue

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt I’ve just left them for exactly the same reason. My contract had ended and they upped my package by £79 and said they couldn’t do it cheaper but new customers were the same price as my old one. No loyalty to a long standing customer

    @nel_andrie @virginmedia You’re right. A communications company that has a huge problem communicating!! 🤬

    To @virginmedia- Many thanks to your Technician who came out today following the outage in my area. Although I was back online by this time he checked over all the equipment and settings, and also discovered that the router needed changing-which he did - very polite and efficient man. I don’t use my real name on here for safety and security reasons, but if you want to send me a DM, I will let you know.
