    Virgin Media is ******* awful. Anyone know of another Internet provider that isn't complete dogshit?

  • Acko_79 Acko (@Acko_79) reported from Liverpool, England

    Sort this **** service out. All night no internet @virginmedia

  • John_murphy1 John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Formby, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, according to your website it’s a known issue and won’t be fixed till 9pm. Never mind, just hope it’s fixed sooner especially as TV is down too!

  • Shellifumi Steve Shelbourne (@Shellifumi) reported from Aintree Village, England

    @AllenWeso6 @1878shadow @virginmedia Same here sort of mate. Only noticed how poor it was since I stopped working away and started working from home.

  • charl_middo Charlotte Louise Middleton (@charl_middo) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia what is the problem with the broadband in the L9 area?! It’s been dodgy for weeks now and my husband now has to use his phone as a hotspot to be able to actually work from home because the broadband is so shocking!

  • Paulwhittle8 Whittle (@Paulwhittle8) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia I've tried many times. You're customer service is appalling. Nothing ever improves. So no there isn't anything you can help with AR.

  • ConnorTWilson Connor Wilson (@ConnorTWilson) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Virgin Media WiFi is honestly the worst to be with. Trying to watch films using the WiFi and its going off every 10 minutes. Nothing to do with our signal or our bill, it's just plain shite. Are they gonna sort it out? Are they ****

  • Swell09 Swell ✌🏻 (Pronoun: She/Her) (@Swell09) reported from Seaforth, England

    @DeannaLouise93 @virginmedia We’ve had nothing but issues as well D!! I raised a complaint and they keep saying they can’t contact us! Nobody has called my dad! Still having issues after two engineers!

  • EmmaZhaan64 Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue with the Netflix app? I haven’t been able to access it in over a week.

  • Aleyy Aley. (@Aleyy) reported from Formby, England

    Trying to do an online course where @virginmedia is being a waste of space is just wonderful 👍🏼🙃 keep increasing the price yet never improve their speed. 🖕🏼

  • DannyWyattXXX Danny Wyatt | OnlyFans 25% off (@DannyWyattXXX) reported from St Helens, England

    Anybody else having Virgin media problems? #virginmediadown

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia I have used this service in the past and faults have been noted, I have also reported it before now on my account. It’s just weird that every Sunday I appear to be having issues.

  • GaryBeggs_8 Gary Beggs (@GaryBeggs_8) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia can’t get through on the phone, so you launch an app to manage your own account, then when you try and make changes it sends you to a chat option which also you can’t get through on. Your service is an absolute joke !

  • John_murphy1 John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Formby, England

    @virginmedia hi, the internet seems to be down in the Formby area (L37). Green flashing light on the modem and can’t get online. Any idea when it’ll be resolved. I’m working from home and need it back!

  • Sarahsgracesmum Clare Marie Watson (@Sarahsgracesmum) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia executive team emailed on 16th Feb to say they would deal with my issue within 28 days. Still waiting whilst you've taken more money for a useless service...I smell a sinking ship

  • ConnorTWilson Connor Wilson (@ConnorTWilson) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Honestly I could rant for ages about how bad Virgin media WiFi is, and they never seem to make an effort to improve it

  • trishy_wishy88 Tricia Gill (@trishy_wishy88) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had an issue with my phone since February this year…I’ve sent it to you twice for repair and followed the online troubleshooting more times than I can remember but I’m still facing the same issue.

  • chaser_51 Simon Janion (@chaser_51) reported from Runcorn, England

  • raybrown007 You know what..... (@raybrown007) reported

    @virginmedia Please get back to me. I need a contact email address. Problems with my account, I can not login and no other means of contact.

  • RaghuVellala Raghu Prasad (@RaghuVellala) reported

    @virginmedia Almost as I was about to agree on a deal the guy says I am logging off in 2 minutes and gone immediately. After 6 hours WTF #virginmediaCSsucks #rubbishVirginmedia

  • staylucky Neil Baldwin (@staylucky) reported

    @nitindshah_shah me and others have same experience of complaint cases closed claiming they have spoken to me and agreed resolution when they haven't, @ofcom should investigate @virginmedia complaints process and possible manipulation of claimed resolutions

  • felhaunter lee-yon-ar-dow (virgin media hate account) (@felhaunter) reported

    this is the third ******* day in a row that my @virginmedia internet has ******* gone down, 20th time this week. I AM SO ******* DONE USING YOUR SERVICE. it’s terrible. don’t send me the outage finder website because that doesn’t solve my ******* issue. MAKE YOUR SERVICE BETTER

  • tombo_82 Tom Cantwell (@tombo_82) reported

    @BrokenSkiesPG @virginmedia None. The weird thing is occasionally I’ll get near to normal strength signal (I’m right next to the router) and then 30 seconds later it drops completely.

  • scrappster82 Billy Robertson (@scrappster82) reported

    @virginmedia How do I contact you with a private message complaint with screenshots please of my complaint! Tried calling but very unhelpful as always your call centre staff.

  • mike23002258 mike (@mike23002258) reported

    @virginmedia All working now - fixed in 30 mins - could have been done day 11 days ago - if someone would have just been able to listen to the issue and act on it first time - and not cancelled engineer twice for no communicated reason -

  • smoon_lee Simon Lee (@smoon_lee) reported

    Why @virginmedia @vmbusiness, have you not send an email out saying there is a known issue?
