  @virginmedia shocking service from you, just been on the phone for over 50 mins trying to sort my shocking internet speed only to be cut off & no call back. Told nothing they can do and your checks show everything is fine. What am I paying £79 for when I’m not getting the service

  @mouthwaite @virginmedia Tamzin, have you asked the school if there is any support available with WiFi? I know my college used done funds to provide dongles with access. Worth asking. A teacher.

  @virginmedia It was mobile phone signal, it's been intermittent all morning. Currently I have 4g, but it's been fluctuating from no signal to 4g and back.

  @virginmedia I did this multiple times this morning, and tried my Sim in another phone. It looks like I'm starting to get constant 4g now *fingers crossed* but that was 8hours of intermittent service.

  @virginmedia still having wifi problems, months later still being fobbed off, now a problem in my area but your own website says it ok. How much longer will it take to get sorted.

  @virginmedia Tried ringing at the weekend and kept being sent to the website. Your customer service is as much use as a chocolate fire guard

  After all the years I've been with you I expect better service than this. You make mistakes and it costs me money. Pathetic @virginmedia

  Paul wilson (@paulscunny) reported 32 minutes ago from Scunthorpe, England

  @virginmedia So all the phone calls we made over this means nothing, surely it will be on record either way and someone should see theres a problem, sounds like we been pasted between another pillar and post.

  Darren Barton (@Darren_Barton19) reported 37 minutes ago from Crosby, England

  @virginmedia I only have broadband. Can't get a signal on mobile. I am just fed up of the constant price rises £3.50 each year, we have been with you since it was NTL never had another internet provider, feel that loyal customers are taken for a ride.

  @virginmedia I tweeted you back in January after months of phone calls and we are still no further on still have the same problem

  Malcolm Roberts (@Drmalrob062) reported 49 minutes ago from Scunthorpe, England

  @Banksie23Robert Yep, that's was the only response I got, through Twitter! The rest of virgin media comms are down, or waiting queue for 45min plus only to be told "we are aware and our engineers are working on it".

  Jim Palmer (@jimpalmer38) reported 49 minutes ago from Scunthorpe, England

  @virginmedia Very unhappy with you this morning. In the summer I agreed a 12 month contract for a fixed price. In November you increased the price by £4, I complained & got it down to the correct price. Now it's gone back up by £4 and the person I spoke to said he can't reduce it

  andy stones (@andy_stones) reported 59 minutes ago from Scunthorpe, England

  @virginmedia Don’t know but a lot of people aren’t very happy with the service, drops out more than it’s in service, maybe a UPD issue on virgins system

  entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported 11 minutes ago

  @robert_mackley @virginmedia Thanks for that. Need to do some serious thinking about whether to stay with @virginmedia at end of this contract as this experience has been very, very poor indeed. Communications have been awful (apart from one person that at least appeared to empathise). Been with them years

• 
  Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported 15 minutes ago

  @entrustTMF @virginmedia I've done a postcode check and it says intermittent problems. My daughter says if it doesn't improve she can go back to her flat as it isn't too far away. We are in London. We signed up for virgin party as they were to pay £50 incentive to use & my father for both of us signing

  CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported 19 minutes ago from Oxford, England

  You only know how sitty a service provider relly is when something goes wrong. Was with @virginmedia for over 5 years. Now that i decided to leave they have charged me for 2 months with me already with another provider. After complaining they take 2 months to refund you and now that i sent them their router they somehow misplaced it and charged me 40 quid saying i didnt send it (even thought i had a call last week where i gave them the receipt) If you are their customer.. Get out as soon as possible and remember to block the direct debits. They cannot be trusted with your money.

  Dan (@DanielKennett77) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia 48 hours now with intermittent broadband. BR6 area. According to your useless website there are no issues in the area. I beg to differ.

  @virginmedia your customer service is terrible, how hard is it to have a English speaking representative who actually understands the kings English

  @virginmedia VM/O2 account locked for security reasons. Spoke with someone on chat who requested it be unlocked within 5 days. This never happened. Called and asked again for my account to be unlocked. Again told this would be done. Hasn’t. Can this be escalated? I need access.

  @orange 151.217.0.0/16 AS62016 AS198198 AS42987 AS22879 AS199524 AS62016: Virgin Media 🇬🇧 AS198198: Telefonica Global Solutions 🇪🇸 AS42987: Virgin Media 🇬🇧 AS22879: Sirus, Inc 🇺🇸 AS199524: Gcore 🇳🇱 Location is Chicago. However, this case is slightly different. 151.217.0.0/16 is a "bogon", which means the network is not assigned to anyone at this time (and so nobody should be using it). After the first announcement, new (presumably fake) carriers were inserted into the BGP path as a decoy. The general modus operandi suggests that this is the same gang in action
