    Virgin Media Ireland says it doesn’t have a “repair time frame” on a sizeable broadband outage affecting “the Dublin area”. It hopes that the undiagnosed issue will be fixed today as, “given the scale it would be very rare for this to continue for the full day”.

    @virginmedia can we get an update on issues with the internet in Dublin 4 - 3rd time it is down this week. Hold time of 15mins when we call. Many thanks

    @Dublin_Suzy @MaiaDunphy @VodafoneIreland Only if you're switching provider on the same network - if switching to/from Virgin Media to eir/sky/Vodafone/Pure you might need to cancel with your existing provider too - so always check just to be sure (there are a total of 7 networks and more providers)

    @griptmedia @john_mcguirk From RTE point of view cheap price...Means they never have to have John McGuirk on again for fear of libel....Newstalk and Virgin media can use the same excuse....

    Looks like I’ve to miss yet another college lecture because my wifi is not working. One of my neighbours rang virgin, they said it won’t be back until around 8pm, I need it at 6🙃this is happening far too often @virginmedia, paying 7 grand for a masters I can’t go to class for!

  • JonathanMoran10
    Dr Jonathan Moran (@JonathanMoran10) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    @NightlineIRL I’ve been waiting two weeks for a WiFi box from @virginmedia! I have called numerous times and my package has consistently failed to be delivered. Terrible service!

  • RobertMoloney13
    Robert Moloney (@RobertMoloney13) reported from Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Leinster

    @SkyHelpIreland @SkyIreland My skybox is dead and the AI wants me to pay for an engineer. No. I am paying for a service that I am not receiving. So either Sky replaces the box or refunds me for a service I am no longer getting and I can move to my broadband provider virgin media

    Paul Walsh (@IamPaulWalsh) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    @virginmedia are great when you can reach them-but they can’t be reached.4 times I’ve been on hold for almost 1hr waiting to ask questions. I now have a new box,but of course-it’s giving me an error reading.Brilliant.After 6pm?Tough luck if you’re a #virginmedia customer.

    This time last year I was working a delivery job just to survive and pay my car insurance/mobile bill and basic food shops. Fast forward a year. Now working to brilliant jobs with DIY SOS and Virgin Media, which I never would've got had I quit on Irish Football Fan TV.

  • Itsdippylive
    Dippy | Brig Content Creator (@Itsdippylive) reported

    Virgin Media broke their agreement, then breached the formal complaint resolution about it within 6 days. Their own staff told me the complaints process has "limitations" and to take it to social media. So here we are 🧵

  • mec337
    mec337 (@mec337) reported

    @virginmedia without doubt the worse customer service in the history of customer service.

  • nottmsteve
    Nottmsteve 🇬🇧 (@nottmsteve) reported

    Had an appt this pm for @virginmedia to come for this phone line transfer. It's bad enough that they want a 5hr window, even worse when they don't show up. Went to lodge a complaint but tells me I'm not the a/c holder. It's been in my name for over 30 years! I'm not best pleased

  • HounslowParking
    Asif Rana (@HounslowParking) reported

    @bt_uk I'd like to know why your business broadband so called service, can only compound its utter uselessness with skyscraper level brain numbing stupidity? I thought @vmbusiness was utterly indescribably ****, until you came along. You literally make them look like geniuses.

  • hartdj
    Danny (@hartdj) reported

    @virginmedia I am a new customer. Today I received home start kit. I have plugged in the router and it isn't connecting to the internet. I received a text message, saying 'due to a technical fault we can't activate your kit, contact us on live chat'.... can’t get through on chat.

    An absolute nightmare getting onboard with Virgin Media broadband. They changed my appointment on the last day. Who the hell is going to pay me for the inconvenience this will have? This is absolutely ridiculous. Is this the service you guys provide?? @virginmedia

    Paul Caley (@PC_ale) reported

    @virginmedia the people on web chat not working today? Been getting the still in a queue message for almost the last hour and a half. Is it to raise a complaint? So who do talk to raise a complaint about raising a complaint, as the method to raise a complaint is not working!
