    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

    @virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?

  • 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

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

  • 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 👍

  • boardchik
    Katy Molyneux (@boardchik) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia I need a wifi booster for my house, when am I able to get one? Says you’re not taking registrations anymore! The signal in my study is not the best and I need it to work from home

  • fos100
    Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia That just wants me to upgrade my package; I just want to order the pods. Why is the website so poor?

  • ChrisFoxRacing
    Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G

  • eccygem
    Gem (@eccygem) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue in Radcliffe??? WiFi is down and it keeps saying incorrect password 😩

  • 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

  • Christerphurr
    Chris Mann (@Christerphurr) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my broadband has just gone off is there a known issue in my area or do I need to book an engineer ?

    @VirginMediaNews We have had enough of parasites like this **** and virgin media sucking the money out of our taxpayers, the lot of you **** off out of the country, every one of you will pay for you theft.

  • CmucG
    Chris McGregor (@CmucG) reported

    @virginmedia So after the DM discussion there is still no resolution to the package I pay for not being fully available. Just being told to be patient! The compensation offered for not getting the full package I'm paying for is insulting. Not a great way to treat new customers.

  • victor50
    Kev (@victor50) reported

    @virginmedia once again we have broadband & tv issues. I’ve understand we’ll have intermittent service until 10th. That’s 4 days with the issue. How do I claim compensation please? Supposed ‘award winning’ service is failing with monotonous regularity.

  • kenpawley95

    @virginmedia Down in Wexford and all there is 3G. Omg. Unbelievably bad. Thought that was gone years ago. Time to go Vodafone

  • lennylaw
    Percival Merganser (@lennylaw) reported

    People moan about @virginmedia but I’ve had great service from their phone guys. Once you’ve found the number.. Internet/wifi been glitching. Indian lad, super helpful, checked and diagnosed in minutes, engineer coming tomorrow, new upgraded router arriving Monday.
