    Nick Miller ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ (@NickMillerUK) reported from South Ockendon, England

    @virginmedia Itโ€™s everything downstream of the LAN ports, so wifi on the box is on and working but all his wired network is offline. I have asked him to check all the cabling to make sure itโ€™s all connected.

    @virginmedia Though I am dyslexic I have painstakingly done this on multiple devices and have photos to show It - not posting them publicly but it does not recognise that password ๐Ÿ˜ข A search on line suggests the problem is not unique. I have one hour to call the manufacturer if you advice.

    @virginmedia Of course. Iโ€™ve done everything required of me: I was told itโ€™s caused by my home move and the disconnection due on 12th. Things seem to have been prematurely actioned affecting my signal

    @virginmedia your service is shocking and spent 40mins on the phone to be told you canโ€™t connect my call and to try again, you have my contact details get in touch with me as I want to speak to someone about the service Iโ€™m not gettingโ€ฆ

    @BBCNews please help. @virginmedia refusing to make an 87 year old with a heart condition who needs her telephone 24/7 for her emergency button a priority. Not sending an engineer for ANOTHER 6 DAYS.

    @virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africaโ€ฆ Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

  • CouchPotatoUK
    Wesley Hammer โš’๏ธ (@CouchPotatoUK) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia for a media company that sells amazing broadband, your website is terrible. Just goes in circles, doesn't let you change packages online. Terrible.

    @virginmedia It's okay I've taken it up with CEDR now and let them resolve it, I'm just highlighting to people how difficult it is to cancel contracts and the fact that VM consistently "loose" letters

    @virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. โ€œComputer says noโ€. If you canโ€™t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. Iโ€™m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

    @virginmedia All of our WiFi appliances stopped working at the exact same time. The WiFi keeps trying to connect but just whirls and whirls. No issues with our appliances

  • felixeemopener
    simon bennett (@felixeemopener) reported

    @virginmedia This is the same service I use every Saturday and bank holiday that tells me thereโ€™s an intermittent signal in my area. Rather than send me links like this, how about fixing the issue?

  • clive503
    Clive (@clive503) reported

    @dvoradikal @virginmedia When I left this appalling company, I had so many calls I started calling them out for harassment! If they'd shown that much interest when I complained about intermittent broadband, I might have stayed! So glad I didn't thought! Better service, cheaper price!

  • BenEato46743114
    Ben Eaton (@BenEato46743114) reported

    @virginmedia Just cancelled my broadband because you want ยฃ33 for m350 but new customers get m500 for ยฃ24 how does that work been with you for nearly ten years but a new customer gets a better deal ๐Ÿ‘.
