    @virginmedia trying to find your TV only plans on your website is a nightmare. Can’t do anything on your slow clunky mobile website.

  • MichaelGagaHale
    Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve done that. Think you just need to find and engineer that can fix it now.

    Having a couple of Internet issues because @virginmedia think that 0.18mbps is a fine speed for the Internet. Hopefully a router reset will resolve this... And then I'm live

  • kennythekilt
    kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia So what is happening I want to cancel my account

  • jimaxyn
    Jimmy Regan (@jimaxyn) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to the team, they will arrange a repayment, my issue is that when you want the money, even if it's on the wrong day, you get it instantly, when I demand a refund it's 4-5 business days and that means I incur charges due to your mistake

  • Greenking66
    Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I done the scan and the signal upstairs is weak and very very slow😕

  • Greenking66
    Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I think they’ve cancelled my service, they didn’t give me s chance to speak again after terminating the call

  • the_jackson71
    Nigel Jackson (@the_jackson71) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I have only been a customer for 2 days and I have to say your customer service is shockingly bad. I have called the helpline and also the text message service and both have been poor and unable to help.

  • MichaelGagaHale
    Michael Gaga-Hale (@MichaelGagaHale) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Now its 1600 tomorrow. Pathetic really, no explication for the fault or reason for delaying fix time.

  • NDSapsed

    @virginmedia ITV down and C4, sort it out

  • j2kadd1
    Andrew Everson (@j2kadd1) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Yeah default =tab, it may be normal for you but not any other provider or router manufacturer. Clearly no point in complaining about a terrible user experience I will just have to buy a router and put yours into the modem mode (which it will probably lose after a update)

  • jj_phoenix66
    JJ_phoenix (@jj_phoenix66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia We turned everything off overnight & service had resumed this morning.checked yr svs system last night & there were reported failures in colchester & around the UK.Having been a prior customer o f20 years, whenever it rains then sunny, you always have issues!

    @virginmedia Both. I’m just getting fed up off these interruptions for a service I’m paying for. It’s not right that this keeps happening. Work was carried out recently and whatever they’ve done, this shouldn’t happen.

    @virginmedia I am not giving you credit card details to connect me to a tech specialist. What on earth are you thinking. Please fix this. #virginmedia #virginmediadown

    Dani (@dani_tweetz) reported

    @virginmedia Christmas Day and left with no TV sound. Unable to watch the TV. Unable to get an engineer out til next week. So left with no TV throughout the Christmas period…not impressed with technical help either. Is this what I pay £54 a month for?

  • thatsamimac
    Sam McCulloch ✨ (@thatsamimac) reported

    @virginmedia Hahahah. This seems to have backfired a little. Guess everyone just wants decent internet, tv and service…. Sadly it looks like @virginmedia are struggling to provide any of those things!

    @alishakins_ @virginmedia Have you gone into your routers settings and changed the port forwarding addresses? I did this when I first set up my PC mainly for WZ. I'm with virgin on their M100 package and never had packet loss.
