  • Chlochlo2234 Chloé (@Chlochlo2234) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I’m not sure what your system is for replying to these but I’ve been trying to contact you for days. I’m being ignored whilst more recent queries are being prioritised & answered. Broadband is still not working. Can’t work from home at all now. FIX IT.

  • paboy113 Paboy (@paboy113) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Broadband is so frustrating. Family going nuts! I’m sure VM staff are trying their best to fix but not good enough. Been on off on off in BT4 (Belfast) for weeks. Router switched on and off with no improvement. Seriously thinking of closing top home package account.#virginmedia

  • Chlochlo2234 Chloé (@Chlochlo2234) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia this is day three without our broadband working and you’re impossible to get in contact with. Working from home is impossible like this! HELP

  • Domsball Dominic Bryan (@Domsball) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Wish I could tell you it was better. But the internet is going on and off every few minutes. The service has been good for the last couple of months but since yesterday evening it has been terrible. Sorry.

  • MGR1980 Rossi's Rovers (@MGR1980) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia evening, I was wondering if you could help, we received ourr starter package but the account needs activated, tried the text number but haven’t received a call back. My wife is a nurse and we have two small children and have been without internet for a few days now.

  • PattersonFionaA Fiona Patterson (@PattersonFionaA) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia we’re all trying to work from home and the internet is down! You’ve got to be kidding! Sort it out please #virginmedia @Andypat3

  • larmour_andre Andrew Larmour (@larmour_andre) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia brilliant service. Quick call to downgrade package/pause sports 35 mins hold and call just terminates. Bet if I stop paying the what is it £105 a month I’ll be cut off in minutes and phoned constantly for the outstanding money.

  • florence3810 florence mitchell (@florence3810) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland

    Been holding important meetings from home using Virgin as my provider. I did 5 last week, one each day lasting all day. Each day the internet went down for a variety of times. I can’t get in touch with Virgin - I waited 50 minutes on the phone to have my call dropped @virginmedia

  • d_pelissier David Pelissier (@d_pelissier) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia another weekend, another outage... If that's to be the new normal, then perhaps your competitors will be better at handling it. #NoWiFi

  • belfastbabe66 mandie omalley (@belfastbabe66) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    So after keeping me on hold for 53 minutes you just hang up on me, I appreciate your down to a skeleton staff but how rude, is this how @richardbranson is getting money to pay for his failing airway @virginmedia

  • Domsball Dominic Bryan (@Domsball) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia To say your service is patchy at the moment would be generous.

  • Domsball Dominic Bryan (@Domsball) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia It was showing a fault this morning but it now tells me everything is fixed. However the WiFi continues to come and go ever few minutes. I have reset twice but there is still a problem ongoing from 10.00 last night.

  • darrenMaginnes Darren Maginnes (@darrenMaginnes) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia what’s the issue with your internet, this is two weeks in a row that you’re servers have had problems, how do you feel taking customers money and them not being able to use it then putting the charge up!!!

  • radiogeordie Geordie On Your Radio 📻🔊 (@radiogeordie) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia could do with hiring a load of people out of work to work from home. The call wait time is horrendous. About the 10th attempt to get a problem resolved...

  • sheilaloughlin_ Sheila🖤❤ (@sheilaloughlin_) reported from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

    @Mcgoo1978 @virginmedia I dont have it but my sis and friends is down🙈

  • lorenshanxn LAUREN SHANNON (@lorenshanxn) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

  • essv28 Ellen (@essv28) reported from Dundonald, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia answer your phones please... my vulnerable parents want to cancel their sports channel as you can imagine £££s are tight now but they can’t get through... please advise

  • radiogeordie Geordie On Your Radio 📻🔊 (@radiogeordie) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @onairwithgareth @virginmedia Seems to be network wide mate, stations VM business line keeps dropping too.

  • MGR1980 Rossi's Rovers (@MGR1980) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia evening, we recieved our quick start package but the account needs to be activated. We have two young kids and have been a few days without service. I have used the text service but haven’t received a call back.

  • PhilSkelly67 Phil Skelton (@PhilSkelly67) reported

    @virginmedia Yet again, there is a problem in my area, it is not specific to my house, sending an engineer is pointless, the last engineer I spoke to said the cabling and main boxes on our road are in a shocking state and need replacing. My broadband drops out on a daily basis.

  • steviehind stevie hind (@steviehind) reported

    @mitchec1 @SkyUK @virginmedia Hope you ain’t got their WiFi. Gotten terrible over the last few months with very little customer care!

  • haroldhasnolife Harold (@haroldhasnolife) reported

    @virginmedia I've just said no one can update me on the forum how would that help. I've posted on it so many times, I just wanna stream again BG :(

  • SteveBreave someone random (@SteveBreave) reported

    @mitchec1 @SkyUK @virginmedia Whoops! Wish you'd asked before. Welcome to poor service central.

  • Paulwil28859800 Paul wilson (@Paulwil28859800) reported

    @virginmedia i got scammed out of over £33 on my landline supposed too recieve a call over week ago i had too call told nothing can do about it a company that treat there customers like shite

  • AdeleWhitgreave Adele Whitgreave (@AdeleWhitgreave) reported

    @virginmedia This is all services, I’ve made 13 phone calls now and last night they are sending a new set top box. I’ve been told that engineers don’t visit anymore due to Covid on the rise again?! The issue is the fitting in the wall from outside, it’s so old and not solid to the wall

  • GordonSpringate Gordon Springate (@GordonSpringate) reported

    @virginmedia If you have checked my previous tweets you would see I have followed the route numerous times. Day5 still no phone call to resolve my issues.

  • DavidJe51272871 David Jenkins (@DavidJe51272871) reported

    Virgin media owe me £33.67 because i closed my account after their appalling service. The only time you get a quick response is when you try to cancel your contract mid term and they send the Krays to warn you off with penalty charges. They sent a credit bill and no cheque.

  • sue_ambler susan ambler (@sue_ambler) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t seem to find my email service online

  • MurphyandToby Toby (@MurphyandToby) reported

    Well done @virginmedia yet again the internet and TV is off!! 3 times in 2 months is pretty dire service
