  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia My so called ‘ultrafast, reliable fibre-optic broadband’ has been down all day (!). Unacceptable 😡

  • Phil_Swallow Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising

  • judge_ravinder Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia Different messages every time. Mainly Connections issues, I have switched, rebooted and checked all day today…nothing!!!

  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”

  • starmanuk Jason Starman QBE 💙 (@starmanuk) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia No issues reported. But 7 houses locally reporting outages on local forums. This is happening frequently.

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia It’s now showing there is a problem. It’s been going on for 3 days now being very intermittent but only just started showing there was a problem this morning

  • appariciojunior AJ (@appariciojunior) reported from East Ham, England

  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia My broadband is finally back on. But after this latest horrific outage, I am now actively searching for a new provider. #virginoutage

  • Phil_Swallow Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

  • ninepine Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @YodelOnline OK have sent DM with details of the *Three* shipments @virginmedia have now sent due to their faulty software or equipment none of which shipments have been provided with a two hour delivery window by the carrier @YodelOnline as promised. Truly awful customer service.

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Again my Virgin Media broadband has shat itself. Shows it’s connected to the net but with zero download zero upload yet service checks says no problems In your area. Can’t wait to leave fed up of this

  • ranaraptor Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia Do you have a date/time? What is the tech issue? I’m trying to run a business remotely, and Virgin is severely letting me down unfortunately. #virginoutage #virginmediadown

  • andrewlwood Andrew Wood (@andrewlwood) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia another outage in Tw8. This has been a regular problem over the last three weeks. It’s messing with my business and now my family movie night. Are you aware, and when will it be sorted?

  • ninepine Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Have raised a complaint but this is being dealt with by someone only capable of copying and pasting a series of platitudes into a superficial and thoughtless email. No intelligence or attempt to understand and address the issues. Pathetic. Still not fixed.

  • Phil_Swallow Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England

    Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

  • judge_ravinder Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia surprise surprise once again the connection is lost between the hub and box, only lasted a day. There are no words for the service you are providing and lack of resolution

  • Champs707007 Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • itsstheasianone Dukè 🇩🇪🇱🇰 (@itsstheasianone) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    anyone else’s virgin media down?
