    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • GeoffEvansTutor Geoffrey Evans (@GeoffEvansTutor) reported from Bury, England

    Broadband DOWN two days last week then on for a day then OFF Today @virginmedia working from home on Monday in BL9- not good enough for what we pay!!!! #nothappy

  • ms_sasmassey sarah (@ms_sasmassey) reported from Preston, England

    Hi @virginmedia I've been having TV issues for a few days today is really bad missing channels - error code W02, and intermittent pictures on others

  • laurenpoche Lauren🥃🎓📖 (@laurenpoche) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia no TV or internet all day. Even my phone internet been playing up, hardly had that as I'm on 02, which you are partnered with. 10am tomorrow it says to be fixed now, no other updates on the issue or help. Very poor.

  • NJWesthead NJW (@NJWesthead) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Broadband/TV outage until 2:35pm but can’t register a loss of service as page doesn’t load. On 4G so problem is with you. Why advertise you’ll compensate if there’s no way to get it?!

  • CliveCrossley83 Clive Crossley (@CliveCrossley83) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia terrible service!! have been waiting for a response to our request to cancel services since yesterday lunchtime and unable to get through on the phone after waiting over 45 mins Internet constantly going off!!! ridiculous

  • LovecloughKev Kevin Kitten (@LovecloughKev) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Why is your WhatsApp chat so rubbish for the 4th time i have been kicked off. Terrible service

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV any help/advice on moving house. Want to stay with Virgin but can't speak to anyone and the home move team have said they've cancelled the policy? 3 days trying to speak to someone.

  • WillBr1875 Will_BRFC.1875 (@WillBr1875) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia Hi , I just wanted to ask if you could help me concerning my Internet at home , its not been working all weekend at all, it connects but nothing please can we sort the problem ASAP Thank You

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent #NoReturns (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @nerdscav @the_hinchy @virginmedia Yes because a WiFi extender will fix the issue when it's the incoming line and not the hardware 😳. The routers gives a 3ping and 1GBps connection. The issue is virgin's crappy network 👍

  • J_w_D94 LeChonk (@J_w_D94) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I'm tweeting from the device I'm having connectivity and signal issues with, I've looked on the website and it's not stating if you're having network issues or not.

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Tried that many times. Not working within 3 days. Can you call ME instead to arrange? If not, cancelling service.

  • insidewrite1957 Peter Thornton.🇺🇦 (@insidewrite1957) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    @eshelm @simonnread @virginmedia Worst people I’ve ever worked for By a distance

  • els_photographs Emma L Strawbridge 📷🍓🎮🏳️‍🌈 (@els_photographs) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia the connection issues better be sorted by tomorrow morning, some of us need to work

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Yet again an intermittent service in Area 20 BL1 2 this has now gone beyond a joke, paying for a service and not getting it

  • anthony_murphy1 Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Poor. Very poor. 3 days trying, being on hold, being assured return calls, moving home team have to speak to Netflix team (don't even have it), then being told it's cancelled and being give packaging instructions. Ridiculous, wanted to stay with you.

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Still having problems there is a fault in the area, supposed to be fixed by 16:25 today, over 24 hours without Internet is a joke

  • WillBr1875 Will_BRFC.1875 (@WillBr1875) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia There isn't anything that could help with the problem because I don't fully understand what everything is or means etc It could do with a technician to have a look, something similar as happened before and you sent a technician out

  • Grizgut Simon Merrill (@Grizgut) reported

    @virginmedia Back home now. Hub is red, no Internet when wired either. Test on phone says theres a problem but service status says no problem, 2 days now mostly hot spotting from phone, running out of data!

  • MeggJones_ 𝕄𝕖𝕘𝕒𝕟 𝕁𝕠𝕟𝕖𝕤 ♡ (@MeggJones_) reported

    SHOCKING CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM @virginmedia BEEN WITHOUT INTERNET SINCE LAST FRIDAY AND NOW HAVING TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY FOR AN ENGINEER TO COME OUT! UTTERLY DISGUSTED

  • lisa_lisa19pat Lisa (@lisa_lisa19pat) reported

    @virginmedia No attempt at a temporary resolution during this time so we had to pay out our pocket to increase our phone data as we have an non-verbal child that we need internet for so he can use his communication device. No response from management even though we’ve asked several times.

  • MeggJones_ 𝕄𝕖𝕘𝕒𝕟 𝕁𝕠𝕟𝕖𝕤 ♡ (@MeggJones_) reported

    @virginmedia @NetflixUK Would be helpful if someone could come and fix my internet

  • phillikescustom phillikescustoms (@phillikescustom) reported

    @virginmedia Line was tested guy on phone said there was no fault yet couldnt explain why speed was so slow.

  • IAmThunderHawk I Am ThunderHawk (@IAmThunderHawk) reported

    @virginmedia hello, how can I check if my router has any VPN restrictions? My work VPN connection is very poor, however everything else that's connected to the WiFi runs great

  • oldscotbooks Fergus Smith (@oldscotbooks) reported

    @EyeEdinburgh @virginmedia Yeah, I had the exact same issue - the broadband hub sits upstairs, the phone hub downstairs. Fortunately I've got multiple chargers for the landline, so I plugged the base station into the hub and moved a charger downstairs.

  • kokopuffbean kit @ koko polycule elite!! (@kokopuffbean) reported

    i've been having internet issues with virgin media for months everytime we phone they just tell us "they're doing work on the line." every time and now they're not gonna do anything until new years :) this is ridiculous it won't stay connected securely at all.
