  • TriciaCaputo Patricia Rayney Ⓥ (@TriciaCaputo) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia We have business broadband and received an email saying that there was a planned outage in our area. As we are due to give a live broadcast soon we need to know if the work has been completed.

  • CazDigital1 Caz Digital (@CazDigital1) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia hey. Board and doesn’t seem to be working at the moment. I’ve tried restarting twice and called to have a check on my equipment. That seems to be fine. When I restart it works for about 30 minutes and then goes down again. Thanks

  • EnriqueGuadiz Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Router WiFi connection is so unstable people are about to throw them out their windows!! Might be worth moving to @VodafoneUK to get a better price and service? #VirginMedia has been truly awful recently

  • JB_CFFire John B 💙🤍🔥💥🚴‍♂️⛷⭐️🇪🇺💫☄️ (@JB_CFFire) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @Paulos_the_fog @virginmedia Because of home working I upgraded to 350mbps package and was getting that until a few months ago measured using a variety of apps - now it’s down to 80 consistently.

  • harrydotcom_ HK (@harrydotcom_) reported from St Albans, England

    Come on @virginmedia pushing back the estimated fix time from 10pm today to 9am tomorrow I’ve got to finished Squid Game 😰

  • ampthillweltond Derek Welton (@ampthillweltond) reported from Milton Keynes, England

    @virginmedia can I be advised how to get on web chat please to sort my bills out help@needed asap please

  • johnvasili1 VAS (@johnvasili1) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Again why send me a bill when I'm no longer a customer

  • JB_CFFire John B 💙🤍🔥💥🚴‍♂️⛷⭐️🇪🇺💫☄️ (@JB_CFFire) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @Paulos_the_fog @virginmedia Yes, that is a problem but I may be able to log into the router. Thanks for your help.

  • SteveDunn09 Steve Dunn (@SteveDunn09) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Yeah... he he... when the broad band decides to work that might help.. when you get 'not connected' via ethernet and wifi the tests are a bit meaningless

  • NikLane7 Nik Lane (@NikLane7) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @TheStevieG123 @virginmedia I had a similar issue with EE (plus the phone wasn't a good enough upgrade for the money!) I sent it back within 14 days and got a sim only. 5g prob won't be worthwhile over here for some time yet

  • jamescun James Cunningham (@jamescun) reported from London Colney, England

    @doismellburning @danpalmer I have a self-hosted box with DigitalOcean in London. My use case is isolation from local networks and ISP privacy (I know I’m just moving the problem, but I trust DO more than Virgin Media). For those cases, VPN providers are a haven for data collection, so no.

  • jas9029 JAS 🇮🇳 🇬🇧 (@jas9029) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia Hey AL13DQ is down, any updates on this please? your service status page shows no problem what so ever!

  • ERS_SteveG SteveG@ERS (@ERS_SteveG) reported from Toddington, England

    @skytv very poor service when switching to your service. Currently left without broadband for 2 weeks due to a BT Engineer not being able to go up a ladder to fit a cable! Regret leaving @virginmedia

  • domoriley Dom O'Riley (@domoriley) reported from Milton Keynes, England

    @virginmedia And @virginmedia another point.. you say you offer compensation when your service fails.. not charging me for something you aren’t delivering is NOT compensation.. like going to a restaurant and being told we won’t be charging u for the food we won’t serve!! A disgrace

  • NannyDebbs NannyDebbs (@NannyDebbs) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia HP2 TV and Website down from 11am fix time please

  • PhilCampbell_ Phil Campbell (@PhilCampbell_) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia No. There never are. I've had issues with this since I'd had it installed.

  • LisaKathryn5 Lisa Kathryn (@LisaKathryn5) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia what is happening in AL3? Now saying 9am tomorrow before broadband repaired, this is almost a day of lost working time. Service is so bad, what is being done to make it more reliable?

  • TotallyFD Adam (@TotallyFD) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, how can I get support for my mobile phone? I’m a new customer and am having issues making and receiving calls. There is no help on the app for what I need. Thanks

  • jon_warburton Jon Warburton. (@jon_warburton) reported from London Colney, England

    You, an idiot: Darren Grimes Me, an intellectual: Virgin Media

  • nicholasjemetta Nicholas Jemetta (@nicholasjemetta) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to help my mother-in-law who’s a registered cater, with her broadband. Her wi-fi signal is very patchy and it’s causing her problems (plus unnecessary extra stress). She has a Hub 3; can she get a Hub 4 without upgrading to Gig 1?

  • MickyTwoPints Two Pints 🇪🇺 (@MickyTwoPints) reported

    @gdesjardins_ml @virginmedia I've got exactly the same issue. Been hanging on for an hour already. Complete waste of time.

  • XLauraCollierX Laura Collier (@XLauraCollierX) reported

    @virginmedia No there are no faults. I’ve done this numerous times since about 10pm last night. It’s like there is no signal going to the hub

  • ThatPhysicsGirl Helen Chamberlain (@ThatPhysicsGirl) reported

    To confirm I've been trying to sort out my billing issue for over 3 months, and despite them "fixing it" on each 1hr+ phone call (charged at expensive rates because ofc) it hasn't been fixed. @virginmedia just because you've improved your hold music doesn't make up for my time.

  • jd_bbcbcm curry_curious (@jd_bbcbcm) reported

    @virginmedia No follow up from VM confirming when services would be ceased, no communication about whether the decision to move had been changed. Very, very poor customer service

  • jd_bbcbcm curry_curious (@jd_bbcbcm) reported

    @virginmedia I have got to try and set yp@a Teams meeting now tethering to my mobile, whose signal strength is poor here… happy days

  • jd_bbcbcm curry_curious (@jd_bbcbcm) reported

    @virginmedia Doesn’t help me

  • ImCasticTV Castic (he/him) (@ImCasticTV) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not sure what you mean by ‘the outage being closed’ but I ran the checks and rebooted my equipment and the same issue is still occuring

  • NickGDocker Nick Docker (@NickGDocker) reported

    @virginmedia And another hang up after an hour of waiting f*cking useless

  • NickGDocker Nick Docker (@NickGDocker) reported

    @virginmedia So about the ASAP you spoke about... presume you measure that in hours rather than minutes. Presume the delay is because you've got so many frustrated customers wanting to cancel their accounts.

  • MattyMusgrove Matty Musgrove (@MattyMusgrove) reported

    @virginmedia Never any faults. Had engineer out. Changed wires, messed about with signal. Reset a million times. Still the most unreliable WiFi going, had much better experience with Sky.
