  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @RichPierce0079 @virginmedia @SkyUK @VodafoneUK All different issues really. Virgin is its own thing. Sky could have been a line issue, Vodafone went live earlier today but despite saying it has an internet connection it doesn’t. Almost like they’ve not activated it on their end despite the app saying the line is active.

  • Lisa_aheM Lisa! Lisa! (@Lisa_aheM) reported

    @virginmedia obviously I'd prefer to cancel by email

  • CJGrannell Chris Grannell (@CJGrannell) reported

    @virginmedia Your run a test on the hub page / service doesn’t even work!

  • glyn_sam Sammy Dodger (@glyn_sam) reported

    @virginmedia You've been aware for a couple of days now. Agents are advising that engineers are out fixing the problem. Completely understand I don't know the complexity of the issue but surely it doesn't take this long when multiple houses are affected? Shouldn't it be a priority?

  • DavidLemon777 David Lemon (@DavidLemon777) reported

    @virginmedia No, it's not 'zero'. It's for 29.99. We've been on the phone for hours trying to cancel this. We've been sent 'sorry you're leaving' emails, but we never joined because your engineer failed to show FIVE times. Now it looks like you intend to charge for a service we never had

  • dushanp Dushan P (@dushanp) reported

    @virginmedia HA1 area is having on/off connectivity issues! Terrible sort it out now

  • NathanCasey NC 🇩🇲🇬🇧 (@NathanCasey) reported

    @virginmedia seems that my services have now gone down RM2 area??

  • DavidLemon777 David Lemon (@DavidLemon777) reported

    @virginmedia I'm only writing this on twitter as your customer service people don't talk to each other. We were told and sent emails confirming that the service would be cancelled and a total of £55 compensation would be provided for the loss of service. My partner and I rely on broadband

  • CJGrannell Chris Grannell (@CJGrannell) reported

    @virginmedia Since this morning around 9am. It’s on and off but I can’t have any meaningful calls for work due to it be so intermittent. Your service status reported an issue that would be fixed by 8pm. No saying no issues even though it’s down!?

  • am_fra Alan Fraser (@am_fra) reported

    @virginmedia You have cut off my elderly parents phone line. Not sent out an adaptor for VOIP. They have a Superhub 2 that doesn't support VOIP. Your call centre is no help at all, do I need to go to @Ofcom

  • DavidLemon777 David Lemon (@DavidLemon777) reported

    @virginmedia We have had a terrible time-weeks without service because your company LIED 5 times about an engineer coming round. Apologies aren't enough. Now it looks like you're charging us for the privilege of being treated with contempt by your company
