    @virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

    @virginmedia It’s on both WiFi and wired. At this present moment I’m unable to get ANY network from the router on both.

    @eerosupport hi. I have a Eero 6+. If I connect it to @virginmedia 1gbps service, will I get 1gbps?

  • RefinedSavage Dani Grim (@RefinedSavage) reported from Dudley, England

    Seems like @virginmedia is completely down in our area, I can't even access their support site to log a problem. Also it appears that @O2 is having some sort of issue, my mobile data connection is so slow that royal mail could be a viable messaging alternative.

  • jfrncs_ John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • perry_shoemark_ Perry (@perry_shoemark_) reported from Abenbury, Wales

    @virginmedia Have already cancelled my account after going round in circles for months. My first complaint was closed without anyone looking into it. Raised another one which I still haven’t been contacted about. Crazy

  • Debbie_Cleo Debbie Ioanna (Author) (@Debbie_Cleo) reported from Queensbury, England

    @virginmedia honestly... your call centre/arranging anything is absolutely shocking. Twice had something arranged, twice its not happened and wrong things noted. Please sort out your call centre. This poor engineer has just turned into a complaints department

  • JackSheaFFC JackShea (@JackSheaFFC) reported

    @virginmedia If you can stop saying ‘intermittent service’ because that’s not the case. I’ve had a full loss of service for 19 days.

  • gul000 Gulden (@gul000) reported

    @virginmedia Worst broadband company ever!! Go else where..

  • smokestak sM0k3sT4k (@smokestak) reported

    @virginmedia I’m now at 10 outages on the router in 24hrs. Is there a number I can call to get specific answers as to what the problem is? Really need stable connection as I rely on it for work.

  • AndyWhiskyBA Andy Huntley (@AndyWhiskyBA) reported

    @virginmedia Check the history of these tweets. My internet hasn’t worked for months. 2 engineers have come and failed to fix it. I’ve cancelled work and plans twice and waited in for no shows. I really thought today would be the day I can finally work properly. Virgin you are THE worst 😞

  • Clarky8719 d (@Clarky8719) reported

    @virginmedia only got virgin installed about 6 weeks ago and having constant issues! Makes it impossible to work from home! Can someone DM me to look into the issue please. Thanks

  • ellietaylorr_ ellie taylor (@ellietaylorr_) reported
