    I don’t mind joining the cacophony confirming @virginmedia is down. Maybe it’s linked to their space program going bankrupt. #VirginMediaoutage

    @virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia any updates on the VPN issue?

  • Andraay Andraay Leung (@Andraay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @GamesWithTea @virginmedia I have the exact same issue, its a common occurance, right now a wired PS5 is getting 12mbs out of 200mbs.

  • dudders78 Ben Duddington 7⃣8⃣ (@dudders78) reported

    @virginmedia have to say very disappointed by the lack of comms regarding a network fault in my area that started yesterday morning. Received text yesterday to say resolved but it wasn’t, app & online test say everything’s ok until I run a test which then confirms the issue is

  • Haggisman04 Nat (@Haggisman04) reported

    @virginmedia I'm in Birmingham - service status is showing a fault, due to be resolved @ 12:50. Fine, I get things break sometimes, but a big part of the reason I moved my mobile to Virgin was due to the unlimited data offer which (supposedly) gave me a backup when working from home.

  • Haggisman04 Nat (@Haggisman04) reported

    @virginmedia ...my mobile, but ~20GB down already and no sign of any unlimited data?

  • HopeMarieBonnen Hope-Marie Bonnen (@HopeMarieBonnen) reported

    @virginmedia I cant!!! Why are you so stupid?!

  • GamesWithTea GamesWithTea (@GamesWithTea) reported

    @_Jontis_ @virginmedia It's a joke what's the point of paying for a service you don't receive

  • Lisapish Lisa O Brien (@Lisapish) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    So WiFi completely gone in the house and @virginmedia don’t open Sundays for calls .. Surely that can’t be right .. I’m working from home So need help ?

  • EFCSankey Jay Sankey (@EFCSankey) reported

    @virginmedia, go through a load of steps for about half an hour to get the Internet fixed, absolutely zero help, it tells me to use the app, which then doesn’t work because it can’t connect to the internet that doesn’t exist. Phenomenal customer service that👏🏻

  • Tishav61 💙TishaRoo 💙 (@Tishav61) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for replying. I figured no one would phone. Thus far, forums have not helped to resolve the problem.

  • Sonnyrugby10 Sonia wade (@Sonnyrugby10) reported

    @virginmedia yet again WiFi is slow or not even working keeps putting me on my 4g for my devices as soon as my year is up I’m leaving would never recommend them to anyone
