@virginmedia If you read back, I already mentioned that I had done do. Hence the speed test that I performed. Look, I mean no disrespect but your service is a bit of a joke. I couldn't even get through on the phone! Engaged tone for 2hours. Thankfully, things seem ok today.

@virginmedia still no working phone line no working tv service I’ve had enough of this appalling service and either this gets resolved by today or I’m going to sky as a customer of 13 years with you It’s now getting pointless having your services as they don’t work I’m paying

@virginmedia Are you able to advise IF this is going to be fixed, yesterday you said by 10am today. Then 2pm,6pm & now 10am tomorrow - could live with the loss of either service but it’s really impacting not having either!

@virginmedia We’ve spent probably the best part of a full day on the phone to your ‘customer service’ staff over the last month. Appalling service.

@virginmedia A problem, which I'd like you to address, is that we don't know what the problem is. Last time this happened in October it turned out that the waterworks people had dug through 15 cables and it all had to be reattached.

@virginmedia I only found this out by talking to the engineers working at getting us all attached again, down our road, but if we don't know this, it looks as though it is your equipment which is at fault. To be fully kept up to speed with real info, will stop nightmare thoughts from growing.

@virginmedia are you able to check on a fault by location for me. I don’t have access to the VM account but the last I heard was it should of been resolved by 10am today and it’s still down, account holder won’t be available for hours to check

@virginmedia, I can't get through when phoning customer services! Just an engaged tone. First time in 13 years. What's going on? Trying to find out more about a broadband issue in BN1 #brighton.

@billy2plus5 @caravanions @virginmedia I've been with BT for years. The usual tussle when the contract is up and had cause to complain a couple of times about billing mistakes but service wise, no issues at all.

@virginmedia fix has been pushed back to tomorrow now. Can't get through to a human on your phone number. Utter joke especially when so many have to work from home at the moment like my partner. 🤬

@Ben76593214 @virginmedia Where are you getting these “rumours” or are you making it up? Granted Virgin are unhelpful in communicating & keep moving the resolution time (but not until it’s almost reached)

@virginmedia Looked for a moment like it was back, both the TiVo and router self restarted - is this meant to happen as part of work that may be being done?, unfortunately hasn’t resulted in restoration of service. Confirmed on service page it’s still an outage in the area

@SimonHendy @virginmedia thanks Simon. I was about to try your trick but the caption has disappeared! But never fear it will come back again and then I will try once more...

@virginmedia can someone DM me please I’ve been on you chat service all day and getting nowhere

@dazzleeds @virginmedia That’s because the router will auto connect without password to show you a diagnostics page to let you self test for issues (no good here as it’s on VM side) once service is back the router will resume normal security mode

@virginmedia can i not send you a DM anymore? I've been talking to customer services for 4 hours now and it's unresolved. I just want to ask you a question and would prefer not to do it on my public feed. Thanks.

@virginmedia I got a text from you about works in the NE4 area that may interrupt my services, claiming they will be back by 6pm, at the earliest. That means I am going to miss a programme on a cable channel at 4pm :-( Any further details?
