I don’t mind joining the cacophony confirming @virginmedia is down. Maybe it’s linked to their space program going bankrupt. #VirginMediaoutage

Is anyone else having issues with @virginmedia? Internet is being very spotty and seems others are having issues too according to Down Detector.

@virginmedia They are merely stating it is an “inconsistent fault” No explanation as to why and what is being done to resolve the problem

@virginmedia If you can sort out the compensation for the 2 weeks loss of service, that'd be great 👍

FINALLY!!! After raising a serious complaint with @virginmedia with the prospect of the ombudsman getting involved... They've finally got my services up and running Now all that remains is for them to sort out some compensation and then we can pretend this never happened

@virginmedia We have done this numerous times. I feel like we are going around in circles. We have 2 boosters as not working at all upstairs and still no good. An engineer has been out, still no better..

@virginmedia Hi guys, I’ve put my UK sim card in my phone while I’m back in the country (I’m still paying the contract) - but I’ve had the sim in for 9 hours and I’m still not receiving any service. Can you assist please?

@virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

@virginmedia @primevideouk - Why does @BBCiPlayer on your devices not support the 4K football feeds? It only works through the app on my television which isn't particularly ideal.

@virginmedia Even more reason to cancel, typical corporate strategy why offer people something cheaper in today’s economic climate when you can continue to rip them off

@virginmedia Mainly because you’re now too expensive, called retention team and was offered a derisory £4 discount. Enquired about new streaming service, agent knew nothing about it

@virginmedia Hi @virginmedia it is now over 2 days since I have been unable to login in to my virgin media account or access Sky Sports via the Sky Sports App or via internet. When will this be fixed and where is the communication explaining the fault.

@virginmedia - email service and login still down since 1100 on 14th. Been on cable here 31 years and more than 10 with Virgin Media - hit a low point. Please resolve.

(@arnie1984) reported
@virginmedia It's a joke though, we pay for a service and it doesn't even run properly. I'd love to say it's only a one off scenario, but it's happened more this year than others. I'd swap provider if I could but Sky in this area just doesn't reach the same level as you when working.

(@arnie1984) reported
@virginmedia a little unhappy that my Virgin Media services have been down from around 0730 this morning and it shows it's not going to be resolved till tomorrow afternoon. My postcode is TW19 7HY. A little unhappy as we've been unable to use services we pay for due to WiFi.

@virginmedia 4 times in 6 days that both broadband and Tv have been down for extended periods of time. What on earth is going on at Virgin media? Happy to take my £70+ a month, will be claiming compensation.
