  • Brummie_Girl julie (@Brummie_Girl) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia morning. Are their broadband issues in B31 again? Mine’s constantly going down this morning. Colleague also the same in Solihull. Website says no issues but that’s not reliable.

  • julsbarnes julianbarnes (@julsbarnes) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Your broadband is down in B139YN....any idea when it will be back up?

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m afraid my patience has worn thin on my complaint. I have now emailed the CEO of Virgin Media.

  • omarqureshi Omar Qureshi (@omarqureshi) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia looks like there is an outage in the B24 area for broadband.

  • jpkesseler JP (@jpkesseler) reported from Birmingham, England

  • Tom12956152 Tom (@Tom12956152) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia is there any connection issues In the Solihull area?

  • Nicola_Beau Nicola Beaumont (@Nicola_Beau) reported from Royal Leamington Spa, England

    @virginmedia Please help!!! 23 text messages and 5 unsuccessful attempts at calling you. I just need to get a query sorting out before I port my mobile over to you. Extremely frustrating experience so far.

  • blackmbn Brian Blackmore (@blackmbn) reported from Coventry, England

    Mum ask me why I hadn’t responded to her email, I told her I had, turns out @virginmedia ‘s email servers didn’t like mine and dropped the connection after HELO so the email response never left my house. Probably SPF or something like that I guess.

  • Darkbluebaggie Doug Grant (@Darkbluebaggie) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia It wasn’t me it was my sister. She spent 3hrs 10 minutes on the phone to customer services and still didn’t get her issue sorted. Its not great customer service really, oh well.

  • EverSoSlightlyy Lewis (@EverSoSlightlyy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia how can you make internet so bad that it can’t be reliable for a single day for the last 9 months?? I just did a speed test and got 8 mbps down and 0.03 up.. yes. 0.03 up, I was planning on streaming for the first time since you ruined my connection but apparently no

  • EverSoSlightlyy Lewis (@EverSoSlightlyy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia I will do both; what’s the number for technical support; will try one last time 🙃

  • victortebbit jason jones (@victortebbit) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The '**** of back to America'. 😱

  • robbiederby Robin Palmer (@robbiederby) reported from Birmingham, England

    First impressions of @VodafoneUK #5G... Underwhelming and somehow still slower than @virginmedia's #4G (in B15). With Vodafone downloading at just 40Mbps and Virgin Mobile coming in at 70Mbps. So to summarise. Slow to roll out, and slower than 4G when it does appear. Not good.

  • ReissOmari Gordé 🥀🖤 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Jake_Morris_ @virginmedia @PushDoctor I just find it crap that I'd have to do that in a small apartment you knowww

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    So apparently @virginmedia have been trying to contact me about my complaint. 🤔 however no missed calls or voice messages from them. #Virgindontliedothey

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia wifi down again

    @virginmedia I've done all the checks. I had an engineer out last year and the problem was sorted for a few months then it goes back to losing signal

  • LisaSmythe_RNA Lisa (@LisaSmythe_RNA) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia please sort out the internet! I’ve ran out of mobile date because the WiFi is terrible!

  • IDanzoh Danny™ (@IDanzoh) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia It says no known issue so no

  • Ma_Loudie Mary-Ann 🔮 (@Ma_Loudie) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia I have no idea what a wired or wireless connection is honestly. I’ve phoned and have an engineer coming out but this keeps happening and it’s a bit shit.

  • Wiggy84 Jon Wiggans (@Wiggy84) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia hi we haven’t had WiFi for days now, I’ve checked on your website if there is any problems in our area but there isn’t any, I feel I message you every couple of months regarding issues with our WiFi connection.

  • MrPJFleming Paul Fleming (@MrPJFleming) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia You are such an unprofessional company in my experience. I am not your customer but you owe me money from overcharging and refuse to pay me back.

  • dancafc80 Daniel Davenport (@dancafc80) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia I have the latest hub and the light flashes on the front when I lose signal

  • Camz99 @Camz99 (@Camz99) reported from Perth, Scotland

    @virginmedia You are not! After blaming our equipment for the fault we received this text; Hi, it's Virgin Media. We've put your service visit on hold while we investigate a network problem affecting your services. We'll update you when this is fixed. Your customer service section is clueless

  • Lauren_Sberry Lauren Scott-Berry (@Lauren_Sberry) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I had some flashing green arrows on my router this morning and no internet. I reset and now have a yellow base light and still no internet. Please help
