    @virginmedia I’m paying for 200mbps and sometimes I achieve that, like now, but I still can’t watch @BBCiPlayer without constant buffering. This “local” issue was supposed to be sorted. Seriously considering other options to watch @BBCMOTD

    @BeckyEverson @SkyUK @virginmedia Been with them for 20 odd years from the old NTL days and never had a problem, their customer service on the other hand...

  • robbo_1962 Peter Robinson (@robbo_1962) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve disabled Dolby and it seems to be ok at the moment so hopefully that’s solved it. Thanks for your help. Pete

  • robbo_1962 Peter Robinson (@robbo_1962) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve done all that and it always says “no issues” but often when you get through on the phone you’re told there are and engineers are working on it. I’m just fed up of having to go through all the tests and restarts every time I want to record something or watch catch-up tv

    Internet not working in pa14 area, website says there are no problems in my area @virginmedia

  • mickhutcheson michael hutcheson (@mickhutcheson) reported from Bishopton, Scotland

    @mcneill_craig @virginmedia They don't make live chat easy to find for existing customers. If you are a new customer browsing packages it's there. But minute you log in to VM online the function vanishes into thin air

  • brigidms Brigid Smith (@brigidms) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have been waiting for over a week for a return call from customer service , obviously don’t want my business after 20 years . Looking for a new broadband provider any suggestions . One that actually works would be good 🤬

  • robbo_1962 Peter Robinson (@robbo_1962) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    Since upgrading to @virginmedia M200 broadband the sound and vision in our tv keeps going out of sync. Does anyone know why and if there’s a solution? Thanks

  • ped1969 Ped (@ped1969) reported from Bishopton, Scotland

    @michaelt1967 @virginmedia We gave up, constant hassle with poor virgin wifi... fitted Nest wifi and turned our virgin Hub to Modem mode. Everything is brilliant now.

  • gbradford67 Gordon Bradford (@gbradford67) reported from Brookfield, Scotland

    @virginmedia Broadband once again running at 50% bandwidth, at most. Not funny with parents working from home plus 2 teenagers doing home learning. Should I now just pay half my bill for half the service?

  • jayceejay55 James Johnstone (@jayceejay55) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

    @virginmedia after 4 weeks of trying and hours wasted eventually got through to a human. After problem analysis he announced “our systems are down, please call back after 4 hours”,I asked him to call me back,our system cant do that,really? Worst customer service - bye Virgin. 👋

  • Wobbly74 Wobbly (@Wobbly74) reported

    @virginmedia now into day 4 of the great virgin broadband SW19 outage. No internets as far as the eye can see, just patchy mobile data. But at least I'm still paying for the privilege.

  • RupalSutar Rupal Sutar (@RupalSutar) reported

    @virginmedia my internet has been out since last night. I've tried all the troubleshooting suggestions but still no luck. Please help. I need the internet urgently today.

  • Ghost_A316 Ghost (@Ghost_A316) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah it’s now updated. Thank you, sorry if I was off with you it’s very frustrating when we have one working from home relying on your service and having to take a day off due to the issues which is resulting in loss of pay

  • ryanbhambra67 Ryan Bhambra (@ryanbhambra67) reported

    @virginmedia Called virgin to book for a phone socket to be moved 5ft, told it’s £99. Outrage as I was a paying client ( bt don’t charge). Put thorough to another dept, put the phone down, called again, explained again, i wanted to leave, was told to bugger off at the end.

  • MissS__NQT Miss S (@MissS__NQT) reported

    @virginmedia The service status has not shown any issues in my area and the Internet speeds have been getting progressively worse for a number of weeks now unfortunately.

    @virginmedia @CherylHoleQueen Of course your service is a disgrace. This is what you spend your time and resources on.

  • Ghost_A316 Ghost (@Ghost_A316) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not that but speaking to the neighbours this morning they are having the same issues however your saying their is no fault in the area but clearly their is… not being funny but you should be sending someone out to the area when their is an issue

  • dannyvalzTTV Danny V (@dannyvalzTTV) reported

    @virginmedia I'm happy to do that. Is there a direct dial for second/third line support? I've dealt with first line too many times and done all the usual troubleshooting steps.
