    @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.

    @virginmedia I have been forced to work from home and work internationally. For the past 48hrs your WiFi has been down in Hertfordshire. Completely. Have been unable to work and have thus lost money. Get a costumer service that works or I will take my business elsewhere

    Harold Wicks (@hw_renewe) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia “Have you checked for any issues in your area” No I have not checked that link. It is intermittent; one minute it is useable and next the internet service is missing; it is regular occurrence, happens almost daily!?

  • NLFG
    Nick Chainey 💙 (@NLFG) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia I've tried both of those. I was going to restart the router and see if that made any difference. Appreciate the help 👍🏼

    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

    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

  • 848Jake
    Jake Kirby (@848Jake) reported from Toddington, England

    @virginmedia We have been trying to contact you for 3 days for a replacement TiVo box. No answer on the telephone and online chat will not help us - not what I’d call Customer Service

  • GeoRog7
    Geo 🍍 (@GeoRog7) reported from Milton Keynes, England

    @virginmedia I agree they wont but if you see the loss i am getting of -82dbm from being 7 metres away surely a pod will expand coverage into that area with the poor signal strength? If i stand next door to the router i get my expected speeds - thanks

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately this workaround isn’t suitable. My father is nearly 80 and would not even know what an app is, let alone be able to download one, sign in, enable location services or use a web player.

  • Laitty
    Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported

    @virginmedia He relies on his television to watch Sky Sports. That is the service he pays for, and at the moment that service has failed him. Please can you confirm what the actual fault is and when you expect Sky Sports through Virgin TV to be working again?
