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

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

  • DougHall18 Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

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

    @virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

  • Baynesi83 bay (@Baynesi83) reported from Mellor, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

  • miteamshirts Chrissie Fuller (@miteamshirts) reported from Chorley, England

    Re Virgin Media Live TV outage. Internet still working as is Netflix, Amazon Prime and My Recordings. Catch-up/binge day!!

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

    @virginmedia How long before the Internet problem is sorted out in the BL1 area going to take?

  • shazzawarrior18 Sharon Wilmot (@shazzawarrior18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Still the same issue had another text update to say all fixed but it's not still nothing #notimpressed

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

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

    @virginmedia BL1 2NJ Still having problems with disconnecting and connecting, been like this for 4 hours. I have reset my router numerous times

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

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

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • BAC64 BAC (@BAC64) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia sucks ol16 again. what is it I'm paying for. Its impossible to work and impossible to watch netflix

  • Libra_Comms Ali Gudgeon 💙 (@Libra_Comms) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia have come home from work to find my internet is down and remains down. Are there any issues in PR2 9TT?

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

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • IamAbulShelby 𝔸𝕓𝕦𝕝|𝕊𝕙𝕖𝕝𝕓𝕪 (@IamAbulShelby) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @BexInfante mine is now not working at all

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

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia If does now. 12:00. That's 17 hours without service.

    @virginmedia And here we go again. Same thing I keep getting told. I keep getting sent around in circles. Just gonna get my contract cancelled as Virgin has had a chance to fix it and havn't so i assume contract is broken !

  • keithke00444917 kellier47 (@keithke00444917) reported

    I know there’s nothing you can do about it - it’s just virgin media are terrible. it’s my fault I was advised not to go with you but naively went against that advise

  • SpeculatorDon Donovan Robertson, MSc (@SpeculatorDon) reported

    @virginmedia The internet connection is so unstable and unreliable. Every couple of weeks, the connection will drop out on/off for a couple of days especially Sundays!

  • TheRoonMeister DR (@TheRoonMeister) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been ongoing for about a week now. I wondered if there was a fix or if I’ll need to get in touch with the team. Just been rebooting constantly at the moment

  • TheRoonMeister DR (@TheRoonMeister) reported

    @virginmedia hello there. I’ve got a super hub 3 which has worked really well the last few years. However recently it’s just been dropping connection. Oddly it doesn’t show anything on the box like it used to when the internet would go down. Takes an effort to restart it too!

  • pauldonkersley Paul Donkersley🐘🐅🦏😿 (@pauldonkersley) reported

    @virginmedia Stop lying will you?! It's precisely the experience you want us to have otherwise you would not behave as you do. A complaint is raised with the clowns in the Executive office but they've already said they won't let me know the outcome - just 'internal feedback'. U R the pits.

  • Budgiesmuggler6 Lee Parsons (@Budgiesmuggler6) reported

    @virginmedia your service is the worse I have ever had to deal with total rubbish will never recommend you as a good company

  • Twinklestar192 RainbowDesigns🌈 (@Twinklestar192) reported

    @virginmedia Trouble is the person is elderly and not tech minded so they won't know how to see if settings are ok. They haven't altered any settings themselves, it just suddenly started happening.
