@ThreeUKSupport hi. My mobile number starts with 07305. It originally was issued by @virginmedia. I’ve had some companies try to call me (including the landline where I work) saying calls to this number can’t be connected or the number isn’t available. Is there an easy fix?

Shannon Johnson (@shannxnj) reported from Birmingham, England

Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia Would it be ok to not just send me the same message each time but tell me how you’re going to make sure the service what it should be? Both my wife and my work is utterly dependent on good internet access

@virginmedia They said they’ve run diagnostics and found no issues so basically I’m making it up in my head ???? Tbh this is terrible and a waste of time paying my bill
-
Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia big thanks for your rubbish service that meant I dropped out of giving a lecture part way through - we pay a small fortune and expect decent service
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia I’ve been having issues with my wifi since I got it last year and now we’ve been talked into getting a “pod” for an extra £5 p/m only for the guy to say it still doesn’t guarantee wifi speed. Whatever you lot are smoking please quit.

Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia @m1kewh1te83 Well you see i have asked multiple times for a replacement HUB and told i was not allowed a HUB 4 unless i bought your 1Gbps service. Now why would i buy that if your current services are down regularly and wont replace my hub? Twice in the same week it has been down!!

Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England
Why did I swop to #virgin? 2 months ago and nothing but problems @virginmedia it took over 20 days to get my tel no changed then you change again why did you not tell me! How do you expect anyone to contact me V useless biggest mistake and very £xpensive one with poor WiFi too.

MJP ☀️ (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England
Turns out turning your @virginmedia Hub 4 off and on again resets the 2.4GHz network name.
-
Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia yet again last night and now this morning your service is t working despite the large amount we pay you every month. The two of us work from home - you are costing us business. If you can’t provide a decent consistency service then admit it and we’ll change provider

Steven 'STIG' Jones (@stevejones88) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia after 3.5hrs on the phone to your teams in every country from around the world today with horrendous customer service, can I get a phone number for a manager or complaints department in ENGLAND. Already filed complaint with communications ombudsman for Ofcom.

Dan (@Dannuccino) reported from West Bromwich, England
I've never had a more frustrating ISP than @virginmedia support lines provide no help and we're stuck in a loop of disconnects whilst being told nothing is wrong.
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia That’s not what my issue is. WHY IS THE INTERNET SO INCONSISTENT??? - and threatening to charge a £240 to cancel the contract for wifi that does work is very poor customer service!
-
Tricia (@Tricia__Winspur) reported from Birmingham, England
Hi @virginmedia any issues I B14 as my Internet is not working. I've done diagnostic tests etc & it reports no issues. My Hub has been flashing green for an hour, the Internet kicks in & then drops out again. I am a home worker and have lost an hours working time so far. Help.

@leonagraham @virginmedia Never do, my Vodafone WiFi been crap for weeks now, no refund as they said, complaint going in this week
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia If these pods don’t work, I’ll back with more reasons for why people should avoid using your rubbish service. It’s pathetic really that I have to come on Twitter to do this for you to be bothered just because of reputation. Disgraceful

Garry Brown (@majson83) reported
@edwinaferg @virginmedia Edwina, I'm in Northolt near South Ruislip, ub5... had no Internet since yesterday am. Fix time was 7pm yesterday now 8pm tonight.
-
Matthew (@Matthew99029297) reported
@Ofcom Virgin Media has been down since yesterday morning in Northolt/Greenford (London). They fraudulently marked the fault as fixed this morning at 9am and raised a new fault for the same issue to avoid compensation claims for potential 48 hour+ loss of service. Surely illegal?
-
COACH With NO Name (@no_coach) reported
@virginmedia Everything..it won't help..it is a network issue. Virgin is either at capacity in my area or you are managing the network and throttling bandwidth in the area between 9am and 5pm weekdays. I will post the BQM graph to prove it.
-
Matthew Harvey (@MattyMerecat) reported
@SQRLTV @virginmedia Cancel and restart your contract then.

Paul Hughes (@Paul0Hughes) reported

Ted DiBiase (@jaydot_____) reported
@virginmedia I don’t mean to be rude but this doesn’t always have the correct information and for some reason you’ve now prevented customers from being able to get through to someone on the phone.
-
Louise Harford (@Loobeylou76) reported
@virginmedia No idea John and can't get hold of anyone. The text service promises a call back within 24h that was 2 weeks ago an I keep trying. Had to extend old provider at short notice, paying more on a monthly contract now!
