  • SiggsDan Dan Siggs (@SiggsDan) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Why am I sitting in my home office with my laptop tethered to my phone looking at your router and booster blinking moronically and uselessly at me? You are both expensive AND poor.

  • ClassicSoulDJ Shorty (@ClassicSoulDJ) reported

    @virginmedia Service is fine as it works downstairs in our house but not upstairs - your engineers have said that the walls are too thick and the signal doesn’t travel upstairs - need a wi fi booster for upstairs @virginmedia

  • sarfrazmanzoor Sarfraz Manzoor (@sarfrazmanzoor) reported

    Hello @virginmedia I’m having broadband problems apparently due to ‘intermittent issues’ - not great since I’m doing an online book festival interview this evening. Any chance you could sort it out by then?

  • kathycotter67 Kathy Harris (@kathycotter67) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi down again, told there is an issue with router and need to monitor it for up to 7 days - working from home and my employer (rightly so) won’t accept that. Paying £70pcm totally unacceptable. Please call me back.

  • mot_leave mot leave (@mot_leave) reported from Waterford, Munster

    @virginmedia incredible, I've been trying to watch Underbelly, looks good, I'm sure it is. Problem is I need subtitles, a little bit hard of.. Cannot figure out dialect without subtitles, @virginmedia seem to ignore the hard of hearing, imagine in 2021. Thank God for RTE,BBC etc

  • kathycotter67 Kathy Harris (@kathycotter67) reported

    @virginmedia That’s helpful …. In addition to my WiFi not working and being advised up to 7 days to fix it you also offer no alternative solution.Customer service at its best!

  • CBeestin Charlotte Beestin (@CBeestin) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, it’s morriston, Swansea. Green street / Bedford street I am not sure if the door is broken or shut needs closing - haven’t got a photo sorry

  • sergio33468375 sergio (@sergio33468375) reported

    @virginmedia is virgin media down?

  • danjconn Dan Conn (@danjconn) reported

    @Garyw_ @LisaForteUK I personally left Virgin Media after finding out they store passwords in plain text and consider this something that doesn't need changing. I would wager that if people lost something they cared about then reputational damage would occur.

  • SharpshotII Matt (@SharpshotII) reported

    @virginmedia I have checked my status and it appears that everything has no known issues, except it does.
