  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 👍

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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?!

  • 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

  • Adzcantsing Adz can't sing (@Adzcantsing) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia useless we are trying to cancel and for past 2 weeks now since we have moved home. We have been pushed from pillar to post, been laughed at by customer service. Since we moved we have we've been promised someone will come and sort it.

  • 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.

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

    @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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • SoloUtilitaRian UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, England

    With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

    @currys @virginmedia 3 weeks and counting to sort out a simple problem... Any chance of an update, as you're ignoring my DM's?

  • Oliver63953847 Oliver (@Oliver63953847) reported

    @virginmedia my WiFi speeds have been much slower since yesterday, I usually get about 700 Mbps down over WiFi and it's gone down to about 100 Mbps and the ping is unstable

  • Maiwand_A Mai (@Maiwand_A) reported

    @virginmedia No broadband in NW1 since Saturday Afternoon!!!!! Service status fix time keeps changing #virginmedia

  • SamuellBllack ✊🏿 (@SamuellBllack) reported

    @virginmedia is the worst internet provider

  • PeachyTeaEri Peach Tea (@PeachyTeaEri) reported

    @virginmedia Can you hurry up and fix your crappy service, its been causing us chaos ALL day. No reason for this to be happening. Unable to keep a stable connection long enough to play any online games, drops out within 5 minutes, absolutely terrible! 😡

  • TomXFD Tom (@TomXFD) reported

    @Dannn0401 @virginmedia @Hyperoptic I would receive a text saying ‘outage’ & service would be fine, & then when there was an outage no comms at all. Cancelling has been a nightmare, I called & was unnecessarily passed between 3 agents, none of them did what I asked- simply cancel. Only reaffirms my decision.

  • sjcon30 Stephen Connolly (@sjcon30) reported

    @ElisaEmonet @VirginMediaIE Heading into office in snow and ice due to virgin media. This could drag on for a few days at this rate but at least they are sorry for the inconvenience. Awful customer service

  • AdeGardens Adrian Greenhalgh (@AdeGardens) reported

    @alandean1878 @virginmedia I live in a block of flats. Peoples wifi are all competing. When you change supplier you get a new wifi(6) router. This gives a better connection until everybody else moves. This just amplifies the noise everyone shouting louder is not the solution.

  • EggsyGLC John (Eggsy) (@EggsyGLC) reported

    Hi @virginmedia We are both aware that It's been 28 DAYS since you promised broadband installation. Please dont forget to tweet me with an insincere apology and a link to a useless telephone number today will you. Cracking work gang. Honestly. Really great customer service

  • kc1494 Kate1C (@kc1494) reported

    @virginmedia why does my broadband disconnect/reset itself just after 12am every night? And drops out multiple times a day so often. Virgin used to offer a good service - not anymore.
