James Mockford (@james_mockford_) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia Had a similar issue with EE/BT.

-
Hated Designs (Jamie) (@HatedDesign) reported@Afctopgooner @virginmedia mines out and the sites only telling me "We can’t connect to the broadband kit in your home" rather than telling me if theres an issue or not
-
Cobes (@AFC_OSRS) reported@AndyBtheatre @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Same here I had virgin for many years, never had issues always sorted my problems (not many) only changed as they dont cover my new area, and everything we had on virgin worked out £50 cheaper with sky.
-
Sunlunfan (@Sunlunfan) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia Having a similar issue. They deadlocked my complaint and now want £362. CISAS not particularly helpful, directing me back to virgin to get evidence
-
LK 🏴☠️🚩 (@LK_Yanited) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia Had to move away from them last year absolute joke of a company. Constantly lying about their speeds, work always seemed to be happening affecting the network and the yearly price rises were eye watering. Their customer service is also laughable to top it off
-
John Malcolm (@johnmalcolm1970) reported@virginmedia WTF is up with your service lately in PA1? I've logged 309 disconnections in the past week (101 of those in the past day - 439 in month). All I get from your service status page is "Intermittent signal in your area". Is it the weather? Do I need a new hub?

Tellmewhatyouknow (@Tellmewhat49871) reported@virginmedia All our virgin and internet down during England v Argentina. We are not paying this whole month.
