    @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

    Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

    @virginmedia broadband service has dropped out in Sheffield (s5) any know issues or reasons why this has happened. Service checker isn’t giving any information

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

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

    @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  • w47carr Mrs c (@w47carr) reported from Barnsley, England

  • AndyM50760310 Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia That is really poor. It should be for Virgin to sort not the public. I spent an hour on the phone on Thursday speaking to a next to useless overseas call centre.

  • AndyM50760310 Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I can’t sign in with the original details. The email is no longer mine.

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  • TWO_Librans Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

  • olibrown77 Oli B (@olibrown77) reported from Sheffield, England

    @pauldevine1986 @virginmedia We are still down in S7. Nearly 24 hours now. Saying 2pm is the updated fix time. But that keeps getting pushed back 🙄😡

  • aejazk Jazzhk (@aejazk) reported

    @virginhelp @richardbranson @virginmedia Thank you. I am having problems with Hub 4. As you can see the speed I am getting. I have had almond st all the fast speeds From the same place of router I used to get 375 gb on 350 line. If I restart HUB 4 I get for a little time about 500 gb and again back to 30 mb.

  • Jemthe5thramone Jemthe5thramone (@Jemthe5thramone) reported

    @virginmedia Already done. And it wasn't. But it's been sorted to my satisfaction. It's a shame I had to tweet to get any sort of help though.

  • KWeebz Kate Wheable (@KWeebz) reported

    @virginmedia This was a known issue. The disconnection email doesn't work. It replies saying they don't reply to emails!

    @cafrinh @virginmedia I know I’m late on this but it’s nearly brought me tears today! Iv missed video calls with work. We haven’t had any issues until the last week or so, it’s just awful x

  • jiggerbyte Jigger (@jiggerbyte) reported

    @virginmedia I managed to finally speak with someone today who was of no help at all. I'm now told service will be unrelibable until the 17th Feb

  • andrewbroaders Andrew Broadbent (@andrewbroaders) reported

    @virginmedia So, my question is: is Virgin Media doing, or planning, work to fix the issues in the AL1 area ? If not, how do I get you to investigate further?? Other people in the area seem to have the same issue. 4/4

  • clive1056 Clive Heath (@clive1056) reported

    @virginmedia Another customer here who pays for your M500 service. Just carried out a speedtest from your page..... 2.1 Mbps download !!!!! It does this so much, I feel like you are taking my money under false pretences !!
