    @virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

  • IanRawlings2 Ian Rawlings (@IanRawlings2) reported from Newport, Wales

    Got to love @virginmedia, having spent 1 hour 15 minutes on the phone waiting to speak to someone in their technical service, finally get through to be told they close in 15 minutes nothing they can do 😳 on the WiFi black spots better off getting something from Amazon 🤬🤯

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia That status page states there are no issues, the issues are apparently the walls in my house and my neighbours electrics even though it's been fine for the last 18 months

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes it seems to go down at random times throughout the day usually late morning and during the evening

  • PippaBird PipB 🤗👋👋☃️🎁 (@PippaBird) reported

    @virginmedia you are sending harassing emails to my partner demanding money. It is for someone with the same name and a similar email. However we cannot see anyway if contacting you to get these stopped. Help!! How can we sort it

  • Chanqueenuniqu1 Chanqueenuniquexx (@Chanqueenuniqu1) reported

    When virgin media say you cant talk to manager every time they have service and they are down but every phone call no manager are free. What a load of lies quick to take payment every month but not quick when it's their side at fault #virginmedia #virginmedia @virginmedia

  • CharlieWMAllan Charlie (@CharlieWMAllan) reported

    @virginmedia Do we have an ETA yet on the solution?

  • surbiton19 surbiton **STILL WEARS A MASK** (@surbiton19) reported

    @virginmedia Frankly, nothing about you surprises me. I always thought your service was rubbish and you will be happy to know my view has not changed. Are you thinking of compensation ?

  • UrbanLoveUlcer Urban Love Ulcer (@UrbanLoveUlcer) reported

    @virginmedia If it was 2 days, i'd be on the phone demanding considerably more money is refunded and would be entitled to it as a paying customer - when will my TV be fixed?

  • LeonC1963 IoniqLeon (@LeonC1963) reported

    @Seons_Le @virginmedia We pay for a service a service we are still not getting

  • riesworld_ rie 🦋✨ (@riesworld_) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been with virgin media for over 20yrs & didn’t mind paying a bit more as the service was brilliant, but for the last 2yrs, there’s been problem after problem & no one wants to help & they fob you off. So I’m seriously considering finding a different company

  • BinyonJames James Binyon (@BinyonJames) reported

    @virginmedia This is an all too familiar tale Virgin!! So much money for such a poor product.

  • jane20012004 fiesty🦊666 (@jane20012004) reported

    @virginmedia People on sky never have these problems

  • AliceTheSausage Alice (@AliceTheSausage) reported

    @virginmedia I know it’s not the Twitter teams fault but the situation is the same as it was 5hrs ago. Thats certainly not what I’d call a quick resolution. I think people would appreciate an honest, transparent answer instead of vague “yeah, we know, soz” that we’ve been getting since 11am.
