  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia I have reported it at about 11.45 this morning. Wasn't given a fault reference, told a ticket had been raised and I would get a message to my mobile from field support engineers but it might be days before anything can be done. Heard nothing yet. Also raised a complaint as this..

  • tomstrumreed tom reed (@tomstrumreed) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia There's nothing there relating to broadband issues.

  • RuthOlive1968 Roggy (@RuthOlive1968) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Mine down today and it's a crucial time for my children's uni work with dead lines . Not a happy customer.

  • ChapmanGaynor Gaynor Chapman (@ChapmanGaynor) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia how long is this network going to be down. I can’t make calls on my mobile and I have no internet connection and haven’t had any since about 1pm , not happy

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @Bluhawk1875 @vmbusiness Hope not! Maddening thing is they were working next door to tidy up the awful cabling job they'd done when they replaced our cable, the guy rang his boss about what to do with the badly installed cable and was just told to cut it! No check to see if it was live!!!

  • ADaveWard David Ward (@ADaveWard) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia SMS sent. If you think a replacement SIM will solve the issue then yes please do send one. Thank you

  • EgglestonMathew Mat 🏳️‍🌈 (@EgglestonMathew) reported from Birmingham, England

    Feel sorry for the poor bloke at Virgin Media that’s answered the phone to Matthew

  • kittykaz13 Caroline James (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No known issues, there was on 28/04, same thing signal cutting out, supposedly fixed 29/04, but since then there were brief signal losses a couple times a day every day, another known issue raised 06/05 fixed the same day, yesterday had no problems, but today issue is worse

  • AmbitiousMusic AMBITIOUS 🎶🎸🔊 (@AmbitiousMusic) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Your service has been shit for years. Need a change

  • ADaveWard David Ward (@ADaveWard) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia My home WIFI is always quicker than when on mobile data. My wife’s @VodafoneUK network always receives first and quicker than your network.

  • Wrightgal80 Kate Wright ◣ ◢ (@Wrightgal80) reported from Birmingham, England

    @danhounslow @virginmedia They are bull shit! I sit next to the router and sometimes have to take my phone off WiFi so things load.

  • ADaveWard David Ward (@ADaveWard) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Checked with the team. New SIM won’t help with Push Notifications.

  • BenAubury5 BA (@BenAubury5) reported from Tamworth District, England

    What a joke @virginmedia are. On the phone for 1hr 29mins just to cancel a phone contract. I ask them for an email address to make a complaint and they say they don't have one 🤣🤣 I will never be using this company again

  • JWilliams_94 Jamie (@JWilliams_94) reported from Birmingham, England

    @idlecreative @virginmedia They probably won’t tell you much but it’s definitely a regional problem me and other I know are suffering the same problem with all the other people putting it too Twitter

  • Sammykins9486 Samantha (@Sammykins9486) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It is a media issue, I sent off the documents over a month ago confirming new account holder , no reply or confirmation this has been actioned at all. Weeks on end trying to sort one issue that should be easy is unacceptable

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia Unbelievably poor service! My broadband and phone line cut off by your contractors without so much as a basic check that the cable was providing service. Now got to wait days for service to be restored.

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia is a case of complete incompetence by your engineers. Complaint reference is COM103375838. Have had no contact. What you can do is find out why a manager authorised a live cable being cut and get the engineers back to reinstate my service.

  • baggies_i Adam (@baggies_i) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It's not some 😂🙈 it's everyone mate noticed my Google pixel just went to H+ from 4G so appears you've switched everyone to 3G while fixing the issue. #virginmobile

  • JWilliams_94 Jamie (@JWilliams_94) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nothing about Wi-Fi on the service page but by looking at the other 1000s of tweets from people with the same exact issue I’m clearly not going to get a solution anytime soon

  • kittykaz13 Caroline James (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, yes, I just called them after it happened again! They are sending a technician out to see if the area fault from last Sunday has caused an issue on my line, as this issue only started then, a tech is coming out on Tuesday

  • kslcross KSLCross | EN/KRVTuber | VTrap (@kslcross) reported

    @LichVtuber @virginmedia This was my nightmare with my isp for the past month See if they'll replace your router for you with something more modern, that helped with my issues

  • AndyPJo1 Andy Johnson (@AndyPJo1) reported

    @virginmedia I’d rather you as a company sorted it for me and that you trained your staff to offer consistent and up to date advice. When will the YouTube problem be fixed?

  • GetHisAssWukong Wukong (@GetHisAssWukong) reported

    @LichVtuber @virginmedia Kinda crazy how bad some services can be so bad and still be a running company like wtf are you doing @virginmedia

  • stijnoo1 stijnvda1994 (@stijnoo1) reported

    @LichVtuber @virginmedia maybe look into if the router is placed with the fuses, here in holland it's the norm. though a bad one sicne it decreases 30% wifi power, thus a fix is maybe placing it outside of that...

  • GetHisAssWukong Wukong (@GetHisAssWukong) reported

    @virginmedia @LichVtuber Bruh.....i can you the answer and all I did was read. The router was replaced and didnt fix the problem because she suspects the cable is at fault and instead of your employee checking it he left before even seeing if the router fixed the issues.

  • Kainoa_25 Kainoa25 ➐ (@Kainoa_25) reported

    @virginmedia @LichVtuber This is making me have an appreciation for the bad service from spectrum. Whelp if I ever move to the UK now I know, don't get virgin media. Smh

  • Spookback Kokomi Hate Account (@Spookback) reported

    @LichVtuber @virginmedia dude sky are the exact same load of **** i've been dealing with. the sky q box is intermittent and they absolutely insist that its the router... ???

  • salmon81 Stephen salmon (@salmon81) reported

    @virginmedia Yes broadband all u need to do is check my account to see the hundreds of pounds u have had off me for a service u can't provide.

  • damian_wba Damian_wba (@damian_wba) reported
