    @virginmedia Been out at work, but apparently Broadband been down since 12:00 today again. BT28

  • 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

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

    @fashiontrain @virginmedia This is why I left them never got the internet speeds they promised the whole time I was with them

  • rbarkley82 Robert Barkley (@rbarkley82) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    So cancelled my @zeninternet order last Wednesday when they failed to activate on time, went to @virginmedia instead, activated yesterday. Asked Zen to confirm they have processed refund and still to hear back... Would def stay away from them, nothing but problems from start!

  • Mark_G_J_R Mark McCourt (@Mark_G_J_R) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @creppermint @virginmedia 2/ maintenance or scheduled maintenance, but just turning it off no warning when people are trying to work from home is just poor service. The website is useless, no faults showing and call centres closed, no way to contact them...

  • ph_otographer Belfast Snapper 🌈 N Hero S (@ph_otographer) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Data on new sim @virginmedia mobile not working and can't get through on the phone 😱

  • StripeyMiata Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Well good news, my V6 box lost signal as well for 5 minutes, and when it came back again, so did the broadband. The Virgin van was parked near a cabinet, so maybe that was him fixing a fault there.

  • ph_otographer Belfast Snapper 🌈 N Hero S (@ph_otographer) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Not working since I installed the new sim on Saturday!

  • Ard_Macha Árd Macha (@Ard_Macha) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Still slow.

  • 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.

  • 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!!!

  • ph_otographer Belfast Snapper 🌈 N Hero S (@ph_otographer) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Calls and texts are fine data is the problem can't even use the old SIM it has been cancelled! Tried getting through on 789 but just can't get through!

  • ph_otographer Belfast Snapper 🌈 N Hero S (@ph_otographer) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia They left me to fend for myself, the new sim wiped out my APN settings, @virginmedia were no help at all, got settings from a third party 😱

  • Mark_G_J_R Mark McCourt (@Mark_G_J_R) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @Ofcom any chance you can have a look at whats going on with @virginmedia, I have logged a complaint with you, unable to get a response from them other than platitudes on their twitter account. I

  • Mark_G_J_R Mark McCourt (@Mark_G_J_R) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia BT5 Belfast 7 hour outage, any chance we could get an estimate on when this will be fixed, or even an acknowledgement from your status checker that there is a problem, constant problems for the past month.

  • Rightpeg PeteB (@Rightpeg) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    Worst part of being on hold to @virginmedia is having to listen to Coldplay ☹

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Bart1991Oliver (Keep It Simple) (@Bart1991Oliver) reported

    @virginmedia No broadband or TV services until 5pm tomorrow (local area issues in SW18 2LR). Completely unacceptable, and falls foul of providing services with reasonable care and skill (as required under the Consumer Rights Act 2015).

  • Edlar89 Edward Bird (@Edlar89) reported

    @virginmedia are there internet problems in Warwickshire coz mine’s not been working since about 4pm?

    Dear @virginmedia why does your @All4 TV app never play anything I select?

  • katieroseox katie 🎀 (@katieroseox) reported

  • 1AODrew 1AO Drew (@1AODrew) reported

    @Mytharios @virginmedia Sounds like the battle cry of a self entitled loser who doesn't understand how complicated cell phone service is.

  • FruitFandongo The Fruit Fandongo (@FruitFandongo) reported

    @virginmedia Y’know, the network is normally reliable but why the actual **** do you guys not inform customers of known issues affecting my whole area? I sign up for SMS updates and get **** all. Your services are literally useless. 6hrs, no internet now another 12, compensation?
