    @VisctFishpond @virginmedia I had similar problems to you; got the runaround from Virgin. Lots of research done and the issue is almost certainly the router. You can buy a third-party router and turn the virgin router into a modem. Solved all my problems. Worth a try.

    @virginmedia It’s coming up to 3 hours wait on WhatsApp on TOP of 3 hours of phone calls. Do your teams compete for the worst service levels @virginmedia ?

    @virginmedia Hi virgin just rang the phone number you have gave us to call but we went through using the key pad and then all you said was we will send a text message with way to fix which don’t work.

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done the factory reset and still having issues. Sky boxes need to be reconnected to wifi every day and I’ve checked it all out with Sky and it’s not a Sky problem. It’s a Virgin wifi issue.

  • Clare55A
    Clare grennan (@Clare55A) reported from Bedford, England

    @Haddy51 @virginmedia Yes I’m having exactly the same problem... so frustrating and despite following all the tips hints am not getting anywhere. I can’t even log into my account on line as it says my email is an old ntlworld account which I haven’t used for years

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

  • NICKJSIMONS
    Nick Simons (@NICKJSIMONS) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia trying to cancel Sky Sports for my mum after my fathers death. Repeatedly On hold for 50 mins each time then you hang up. No facility to do it online!! Any help.

    Tony (@tony_cop) reported from Ampthill, England

    @LloydGriffith @virginmedia The worst company to deal with by some distance. Can never talk to anyone. Just some automated guff. Where you go round in circles

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @StMirrenDaft @virginmedia @mat_fraser One of the key issues is their router. It’s rubbish and has programming which means main signal isn’t direct for WiFi. I had this problem; buy another router and turn Virgin one into modem. It solved my problem.

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Tried this 3 times today. It will not submit my complaint. Very handy.

  • Gturv
    GTT* (@Gturv) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Do you have issues in MK42 area? My internet down, 2nd time in 3 days. Your service status says everything is good, I don't believe that for a minute.

  • NPaladina
    Nancy Paladina (@NPaladina) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Had to have a really tough call this evening to query a bill sent to my deceased father’s address. I want to highlight the exceptional customer service I received from Franco (no idea how else to identify him), but he was truly amazing and did everything he could 👏🏼

    Paul Gray (@PaulGrayDJ) reported from Flitwick, England

    @virginmedia @pauldonkin09 App not working and you get the same issue when you try to log via the website.

    @virginmedia Can’t even open the outages page... (using mobile network)

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom - can you help with this situation? As you monitor, telecoms companies; Do you think 3-hours worth of phone calls, being cut off 3 times and 80 minutes on WhatsApp (and counting) is good enough service from @virginmedia just to renew a contract ? #virginmedia

  • swimmingsu
    Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England

    So frustrated with @virginmedia spend over an hour on hold only to be cut off by their customer service rep #whatcustomerservice #frustrated #zerocustomerservice

    purplewisdom (@PurpleWisdom) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia @markscamilleri I have no service at all despite you saying it’s been restored. Can’t even get into the website to report. Everything is down even though it’s showing it isn’t.

    @virginmedia My broadband is down it’s been down since yesterday and on the box all the lights go green and keep flashing every so often like it’s trying to gain back connection .

    Kevin Spicer (@kevinspicer72) reported from Bedford, England

    Just been DM'd by @OpenreachHelp to ask if there is anything ELSE they can help me with TODAY. After NOT being any help at all on FRIDAY. I think it's a parody account. Also @SkyUK didn't call as promised. God I wish we had @virginmedia round here.

    @virginmedia when I press the red button to access sky sports plus I no longer receive an error message. Has my box been successfully updated to fix this issue and I should now expect no further issues from this incident? Thanks @Virgin

    @virginmedia My broadband hasn't been working since around 11am today. All week, Virgin has said that work was due to be completed in my area around 11:15am today. It's now saying that the hub is the problem. I've restarted and reset it, but it's still not working 🤬
