    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry, I have done as above. It is still agonisingly slow. Cannot access emails properly. Cannot send attachments. It is the broadband that is the problem. TV is fine.

    @IpMcdonald Snap...the same for me, but with virgin media. Absolutely abysmal service.

  • Da_Hayts
    Mark Hayton (@Da_Hayts) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia suggest you get more technical support staff!! Second attempt to get support after being disconnect after an hours waiting in a queue😡

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @usukgoose @virginmedia Still issues with my system. Worked properly for a few minutes but back on slow .

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sort of, but I had trouble logging in as it uses an old email address that I no longer use.

    @virginmedia That was a wired connection. It downloaded in the end (all 92GB), I will keep a lookout for issues.

  • Kegmanplays
    Keg Man Plays (@Kegmanplays) reported from Ipswich District, England

    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

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I am not the only one in my area with a problem. Any idea when it will be resolved.

  • leezaloops
    Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia No I didn’t and I don’t remember receiving one. I have checked all my emails from you and nothing. I rang a couple of days ago to ask for a discount and was basically told to get lost. I spend £100 a month with you guys and was shocked at the service. Account name Lisa Morley.

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I will try again by unplugging the router etc. However other people living near me are also experiencing problems. It is not just me.

  • MissClaireW
    CLAIRE WALMSLEY (@MissClaireW) reported from Halstead, England

    @O2 Yeh you keep replying to people with this, & yet the link you sent either directs back to social media, or continues the issue of login problems... so... ?? @virginmedia @O2

  • lbjdenny
    Leon Denny (@lbjdenny) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Issues have been far from fixed!! My router rebooted itself 5 times today. This is not acceptable when I could be working on customer systems attempting to support them with their IT when I can't even rely on my own ISP to deliver a decent service is embarrassing!

  • steevXIII
    Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    Anyone else have a problem with All4 app on @virginmedia Can access the menu / home page but anytime I try to actually watch a programme I get a black screen & 4 dots endlessly blinking, as if buffering, but the show never, eeeevveerrr appears... On Googling, seems common issue?

    @virginmedia Come on.......I'm on this page about 3 times a week. Its ridiculous the amount you charge for such a shabby service

    CarryOnGemma (@CarryOnGemma) reported

    What now? @VirginMedia? I have tried to sign into my account to claim the reimbursement from not having the products you charge from dad. He should be getting a hefty rebate. Yet, you now can't sign me into the account because it's not connected to O2. So I tried that and you've blocked me because I have used the email to sign in too much. The email that is connected to the account. Then the phone number too much. If you don't fix this before I call you in the next twenty-four hours I'll take this to the courts which you have your bots saying people can't. Get me to let me sign in.

    @marypaul32 @virginmedia Every organisation appears to be incompetent. Its on such a grand scale now that it seems deliberate because such things do stress the human bodi. We got hold of Asda mobile and thei said it could take 2 days to fix but it's on now. I am way behind with stuff though. 8wks ombdsma

    @virginmedia How long does it take to actually talk to someone about a faulty TiVo box? Been listening to horrible saxaphone music for 40 minutes.

    @virginmedia The brilliant engineer came out and knew what the problem was straight away, the hub hadn't been activated at your end. apparently it has been a common problem the engineers are finding.

    @virginmedia @O2 I just want to speak to a real person about my locked account but can't get past the first part of automated phone service 🤬 not impressed. Who can help please?

    @virginmedia broadband down since yesterday all day. Claims that engineer fixed it at 5pm yesterday only for the service to be down again this morning. What did they fix exactly?! #poorservice#broadband
