Is anyone else having issues with @virginmedia? Internet is being very spotty and seems others are having issues too according to Down Detector.

@virginmedia If you can sort out the compensation for the 2 weeks loss of service, that'd be great 👍

FINALLY!!! After raising a serious complaint with @virginmedia with the prospect of the ombudsman getting involved... They've finally got my services up and running Now all that remains is for them to sort out some compensation and then we can pretend this never happened

@virginmedia Hi guys, I’ve put my UK sim card in my phone while I’m back in the country (I’m still paying the contract) - but I’ve had the sim in for 9 hours and I’m still not receiving any service. Can you assist please?

@virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

@virginmedia One of your tech engineers confirmed the problem in our local area and following a conversation with customer service they kept trying to get me to create multiple networks for speed. This wasn’t the problem, the problem was amplifiers in the local area!!

@virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

@virginmedia @primevideouk - Why does @BBCiPlayer on your devices not support the 4K football feeds? It only works through the app on my television which isn't particularly ideal.

@simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

@virginmedia why does my wifi keep cutting out every 15 mins for about 2 mins then come back? Not great when I work from home and my meetings cut out midway through…

@virginmedia Your service is absolutely dogsh*t!! Don’t have a clue what’s going on and then literally 1 hour before you have estimated it’s supposed to be fixed, you announce that it’s going to take another 2 days!!

@virginmedia Ita not automatic according to that write up. It says i have to notify you and I've tried since yesterday but there's nowhere to register loss of service.

Why do @virginmedia make it impossible to contact them any way other than by their website or app when you have an Internet problem. Not everywhere has good mobile signal.

@EdmontonRoller @virginmedia @litfibre I was surprised after I signed up they told me that it wasn’t Virgin as I knew it anymore. It wasn’t cables, but I was told no change to their service. Then when it was installed the engineer informed me I couldn’t record anything either. I still thought it’ll be ok, but nope

@Virginmedia finally sent me a text at 13.04 today (13 hours later) to say there’s an outage, yet when I go to my account it says no issues in my area and I need an engineer. This happens every, single time I lose service. I was with @SkyUK for 2.5 years. Never had a problem!

@virginmedia The system is sending me around in endless loops, every time I ask to speak to a customer agent, he say it need to check.
