    @virginmedia No email access for 3 days now on the blueyonder access. All I get is "Oops, this page is broken." System says nothing is wrong. Terrible. I have done a check, and it says everything is working correctly on BBand/Telly. ??? Area 01.

    @virginmedia how much notice do we have to give to cancel our subscription ?

  • obpls1995
    owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia question for you. If I enter a contract with you where you promise X service +items and I promise to pay X amount. If I don't pay X amount am I breaking the contract?

  • johncoxonmedia
    John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @CllrJWarmisham @virginmedia Customer service has gone out the window since they were taken over. Totally complacent and purely profit led. Nightmare trying to get to speak to anyone too.

    Courtney 🌱 (@courtneylambs) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Done. Doesn't help. I don't really care about the TV, I need internet so that I can work!

  • terrificsue
    Susan Rigby (@terrificsue) reported from Wigan, England

    @terrificsue everyone out there be careful when receiving telephone calls and if they say they are from Virgin Media please check and check. I have been scammed today out of a lot of money . I am the one who thought would never be scammed but I was. Oohh .

  • nookandwillow
    clare wilson (@nookandwillow) reported from Prescot, England

    @ThingsByNik @virginmedia Have noticed they’re hard to get hold of as I’ve had issues with my install (outdoors related) they should at least do you a deal…if you could actually speak to them they will prob offer you something, that’s what Sky usually do

    M ✝️🛶 (@Outspokenalso) reported

    @virginmedia @Gaming_kate Fair enough but your comms are dreadful. I lost connectivity just before 0800 couldn’t contact anybody at Virgin and no announcement to state major issue. Down detector does a better job

  • MElcoate
    Martin Elcoate (@MElcoate) reported from Topsham, England

    It would appear that @virginmedia broadband is down across the SW until at least midday. Not that you’d know from VM. Have had to glean this from internet searches & Facebook. Usual poor VM customer service.

  • TheDogFather96
    Matt (@TheDogFather96) reported

    Love it when you pay a load of money for better Internet speeds and you get nothing as @virginmedia is down across Devon.

  • ASoutherst
    Annie Southerst (@ASoutherst) reported

    Appalling service from @virginmedia . Christmas 2 weeks disruption, Then Easter then now. Can’t speak to anyone. Same for neighbours.

    Rich (@richgold1972) reported

    @virginmedia any chance of an update when you'll fix the broadband in the south west!?? Your comms is awful. No point in having service status page that doesn't work don't you think? #ironic

    Dan (@thedanspain) reported

    @virginmedia This was via WiFi and sadly not the first time. I also use sky Go which is perfect picture quality. Any other streaming service is fine, Netflix 4K, prime, anything but virgin tv go. Can I get some answers as to why your service is so below standard compared to others?

  • jonesy73
    Paul (@jonesy73) reported from Plymouth, England

    @virginmedia Is the broadband not working in Plymouth?
