@virginmedia Oh... no, it’s down again. Nope, it’s back. Oh... and again, no BB. Wait, back on. Hurrah. Oh, no, back, nope, gone... There’s something seriously wrong with your service. Dead for 36 hours, back and now intermittent... in the middle of the night too! Who can fix this?

@virginmedia Hi AR, I was given no time at all, only that there were ongoing issues the last two weeks then he said 7-10 days. He said you were working on it, it would be fixed but no timescale. 15 days of unreliable BB is awful. Have had 100% outages of up to 36 hours.

Aargh. @VirginMedia broadband is down again, 20 mins here in GU14. That’s 13 days of poor service. I’m trying to WFH and daughter’s trying to do her homework online. This is infuriating.

@Binky_2301 @virginmedia The service was pretty reliable until now 19 days ago. Their status tool says no issues yet an engineer told me there were. And that they were fixing it. Been watching Twitter and it’s been an issue with folks all over the country.

@virginmedia Called yesterday PM: engineer tested the line, said there were network issues despite status page saying to the contrary. Was told you were fixing the issue but today is day 15 and no BB since ~15:30 yesterday. I have to go to the office, no choice. Poor/no BB = risk my health 🙁

@virginmedia No it’s not an end of contract discount being removed, worrying if it was since the increase is just £4., it’s for investing in service improvement. The point I was making, which seems to have been missed, is the current service keeps failing & def not close to 99% reliable

@virginmedia Still no landline service to home and neighbour similarly. It’s been close on 24hrs - pretty irritated that there is no information coming proactively from your team to be honest but appreciate the social team’s responsiveness to my contact

@sniveldirk @virginmedia Also it’s not reliable broadband. I’m suffering day 15 of anything but the 350MB connection I paid for. Right now it’s dead again. The lack of service forced me to have to work from an office today (again!) How unsafe is that?

@SinghT2j @virginmedia It’s been down a good 3 days in the last 14 here. Otherwise it’s either slow or randomly intermittent. They really need to sort their network out, it was never this bad until 2 weeks ago.

@virginmedia Your web site is not very helpful really - apparently the fault will be rectified by 08.40 this morning. Understand technical problems arise but it’s surely much better to provide proactive updates rather than to react in receipt of complaints?

Switched to @virginmedia broadband in Nov ‘20 and agreed to pay more per month than I was paying before just to get reliable broadband. Now I find myself never using the Wi-Fi at home and the kids having to use my phone data to complete school lessons and work as it is SO BAD 😡

Dear diary, day 16 of poor/zero broadband. I called @VirginMedia, joined a queue, cooked, served & ate dinner, started watching The Simpsons then after 48 minutes of Jake Bugg and some other repetitive on-hold phone entertainment, they cut me off!

@virginmedia how can I check if you're doing a remote hub update now, or if the box flashing green is a problem?

How do we resolve our internet problems if there’s no one at Virgin Media who’s willing to help, or speak with us??... please sort it out before our router finds a new home in the recycling bin.... @virginmedia why does it have to revert to shouting out loud on social media?...

@virginmedia hey there - lost all connectivity at home suddenly this morning and can’t get through to any of your helpline numbers. Is there problem in GU15 3HY area. Can’t understand why 150 and external numbers are either not connecting or just showing as constantly unavailable

@GuseensLV @virginmedia Ah man, I’m with ya. 350MB here was fab until 16 days ago. Been “OK” today, had a relatively stable connection but it never crept over 10MB and that was if I was lucky *sigh*

@virginmedia Thanks for getting the internet sorted but any reason why there is still no phone service or any information to explain?

@ralphyallen @virginmedia Let’s see how long it takes @virginmedia to respond or put something out proactively. I’m trying to call the 0345 customer service number as well as 150 but having no joy getting through.

Been trying to use the @virginmedia online chat for the last couple of days and it's just utter garbage. It says it's connecting and never does, plus nobody answers the bloody phone. I know your customer service is well known for being awful but I didn't know it was this bad!

Rory

@virginmedia Yes I’m still having issues. Upload speed is spiking from 30mb down to 0.3mb every minute. Was told to check back in 24 hours for an update on your service checker but no update. Yet again another issue in my area I don’t seem to get any information on.

@virginmedia any issues in Redcar by chance? Internet has been funny all day and had no connection other than being able to use messenger apps etc. no browsing, streaming, gaming so assume it’s down to connectivity

@virginmedia It’s gone down twice today that we know of, between 5pm and now (9.45pm) and paired with the poor signal outside of the immediate room the hub is in, getting quite frustrating

@virginmedia My broadband and TV service has been down since last night. I was told it would be fixed by 6pm. It is now 8 pm, and I'm now told it will 2pm...another 18 hours!! Any realistic idea when this will be fixed or maybe a person to speak to??? #BetterConnected

@virginmedia Sorry for the late reply. We only use wireless, but I can see the hub flashing with the green internet sign each time it goes down. We also have awful signal only 2 rooms away from the router. Is there a guaranteed distance we should be getting? It’s not a big house.

@VirginMediaIE I also spent from 10am-3pm today goi g around in circles on a WhatsApp chat that ended up being with Virgin media UK and having validated my information about 4 times it took them that long to tell me they couldn’t help me.
