    Adrian Weckler (@adrianweckler) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    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 Shocking experience @VirginMediaIE . Despite spending 5 hours on the phone cancelling my technician appointment and thinking the issue was resolved I get a message to say he’s arriving tomorrow. Where do I go from here?

    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 2 brilliant jobs with DIY SOS and Virgin Media, which I never would've got had I quit on Irish Football Fan TV.

    @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)

    @virginmedia now waiting 45mins for support to pick up - you said 20mins! The problem is your service is so awful I can’t do this online. Please let me know if the 20mins is a lie and that you don’t answer at all.

    Hey @virginmedia Why are there constant broadband issues in the fy4 area? Regular cut offs. At least half a dozen times so far this month. Contract to soon, so maybe time to switch if you can't provide a reliable service. Ps,your chat bot is also as useless as your broadband.

  • robiand
    Rob (@robiand) reported

    @virginmedia TV and Broadband broken for over a week after your engineers damaged the cable to my house whilst installing a new customer. Repair should have been Saturday, was cancelled and rescheduled for yesterday, cancelled! and now cancelled again today. I’m moving to @skytv

  • KellyKilner

    @virginmedia that awful time again when I’m trying to speak to someone and get cut off. Twice …why is your service so appalling???

    GW (@GGWilliams72) reported

    @cdavo25 @virginmedia I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • AnthonyHoc69184
    Anthony Hockey (@AnthonyHoc69184) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done that many times and it keeps happening, so as I said before, it’s either bc yr equipment is reconditioned or bc yr equipment outside is poor. Maybe I’ll see how sky tv is before I make a decision re my contract next August
