  • newworldruler Daniel Martin-Corben (@newworldruler) reported from Portsmouth, England

    Joy of having high speed Internet to work from home but the service is down with @virginmedia, thankfully I have tethering with my @ThreeUK mobile contact. Else I'd be facing a hour drive to the office. Any news as to why its down Virgin, other that the 6pm estimated fix?

  • Peter_Mac_ Peter Mac🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@Peter_Mac_) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia wifi cutting out continuous throughout the day. Just spent 1 hr with your support. As I was using wifi calling I checked he would call me back before he started resetting/ testing. Just been cut off as expected. No call back. Frustrated and disappointed. Pls Help

  • SBamborough Suzanne Bamborough (@SBamborough) reported from Portsmouth, England

    No WiFi all day - and still no service! What’s going on @virginmedia ?!? postcode: PO4, Southsea

  • JayJaySZN JayJaySZN (@JayJaySZN) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @virginmedia The thing that confuses me is like now it is working fine, but I don’t have the gaurentee or reassurance that it will stay up so I put of completing big tsk at work. Then in the evening it totally dies. I am on hold as we speak. Hold music isn’t to bad to be fair.

  • newworldruler Daniel Martin-Corben (@newworldruler) reported from Portsmouth, England

    @SafeT @virginmedia @ThreeUK I think it's service work too, I understand things have to be done, but you'd think they'd at least warm me and I could have made other plans.

  • Shazer1980 Ms S (@Shazer1980) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia your phone lines are never answered your online chat is not responding or resolving my issues which have been on going since October. I can’t work from home!!!

  • james_mccoll james (@james_mccoll) reported from Netley, England

  • raine2016 Raine Lambert (@raine2016) reported from Portsmouth, England

  • BernardThresher Bernard Thresher (@BernardThresher) reported

    @virginmedia 90 minutes though. An hour and a half? Put yourself in the customers shoes...no you can't, you're a robot. Also, I can't tell you the outcome of the 'call' as I was told to go to whatsapp I know what the outcome is going to be however, one lost customer and lots of negative press

  • Dawn18629990 Dawn (@Dawn18629990) reported

    @virginmedia it’s gone down again why don’t you do do something about it we getting really fed up with now they was some supposed to came this afternoon but you cancelled it told you it keeps happening we are not happy with the service at all

  • BlueWreckingCrw The Rt. Hon Sir John of the Shires (@BlueWreckingCrw) reported

    @virginmedia Yep, and got a text.saying to follow the restart/reset procedures.. It's a hardware issue rather than a connection issue

  • charo_uk Charo (@charo_uk) reported

    @virginmedia Sure I can expand on this,the internet connection hasn’t been great in the last year and when I tried to call to cancel my contract I spent 1,5hr on the phone,spoke to 4 people and the last one hanged up on me saying they had issues and will call me back in 20min,never heard back

  • andyfalconer2 Andy Falconer (@andyfalconer2) reported

    @virginmedia service down again...work from home, losing money...rubbish service

  • InfoBizmobile bizmobile (@InfoBizmobile) reported

    @virginmedia The order was cancelled. Phone never delivered. Email from VM tells me it is cancelled. I then get a letter telling me I am in arrears for something I have never received. I would have expected a call back if cut off.

  • versarchie5 Archie Geddes (@versarchie5) reported

    @virginmedia my sons phone is not letting him call or send messages and it’s beginning to really annoy me and him, to the point I want to cancel virgin mobile and move to EE. He is unable to ring me and I can’t contact him. This is not acceptable.

  • jcbell88 Jenny Bell (@jcbell88) reported

    @virginmedia Multiple failed appts; multiple no-shows to fix the problem; inability to verbally speak to anyone; inability to verbally speak to anyone who has any clue what's going on; piggy-backing on my neighbour's connection for the last 8 weeks!! Latest is appt date for 4 weeks time!!

    @virginmedia your service status website has stopped working, I get a 404 after I plug in my postcode and surname.

  • BernardThresher Bernard Thresher (@BernardThresher) reported

    @virginmedia Still nothing. Is it a lack of staff causing these excessive delays? @NTSscamsteam No service or support here from @virginmedia
