  • SToolis Steve (@SToolis) reported from Bristol, England

    @UKxSnipERxUK @virginmedia I've had this problem again for the past 24hrs. Service status claims all well, however I've got no broadband service, absolute joke, just no very bloody funny 🤬

  • willdace Will Dace (@willdace) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia after many wasted hours debating the logic of this, I am broken. Your system is as functional as an inflatable dartboard, and makes it difficult for your customer service staff. Please cancel my contract and allow me to return your gear.

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Speak to them regularly. We pay £77.25 monthly via app, as you took to much by DD, you charge £111.50 not the agreed renewal price £77.25 so always shortfall. Nobody will sort this out. Busy medic worker has to spend hours on calls to you with no resolution 🤬

  • amy_bramhall Amy Bramhall (@amy_bramhall) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia We haven’t had service for 6 days now. Still no soloution... The people you sub contract cut our cables and cemented on top when putting an unasked for access point in outside, the engineers can’t fix it.

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @Virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph. Despite trying to get information - after 24 hours, I have got nowhere trying to discover why my bill of £34 will rise to £64 next month! No extra service or work required!

  • Deannyy92 Soundwaves 🎮 (@Deannyy92) reported from Filton, England

    Swear I can’t get through an entire day of work without @virginmedia going down & having to reset my router.. thank god it’s only one month until the end of my contract.

  • georgetscott George Scott (@georgetscott) reported from Bristol, England

    @MrStuartForrest @virginmedia I had issues throughout yesterday but seems okay today... 😬

  • Rita_magalhaes1 Rita Magalhaes (@Rita_magalhaes1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have now attempted to contact twice about cancelling my contract, as I am moving out of my student house this month. Can I please get some aid with this, as i cannot get through to the call centre, nor find the correct email for customer services.

  • amy_bramhall Amy Bramhall (@amy_bramhall) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia We sent a complaint on Wednesday last week and no reply. It’s making life very difficult and still no sign of it being fixed despite 2 different ppl coming out yesterday and today

  • SToolis Steve (@SToolis) reported from Bristol, England

    Been down for around 24hrs now #virginmediadown #virginmedia #virginbroadband

  • DanielFry23 Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England

    @LFC4LIF03047059 @virginmedia Yep so many times in the last couple of weeks, still without service

  • MickDickinson BuzzedUp (@MickDickinson) reported from Bristol, England

    @JustMeBeingMe4 @virginmedia Hiya that why I left Virginmedia terrible service - I joined UW better broadband half the price. Happy to chat it through

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks! But it’s really not just me - there must be others - at this difficult time - who will be having to pay more for just the same service!

  • DanielFry23 Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England

    Great to see @virginmedia down once again in BS32 area, is there another national outage, my zoom@call@got disrupted 3 times last night and total outage just after midnight. This is happening far to regular being down, sort it out Virgin!! #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported from Bristol, England

    @Seanie08 @virginmedia My speed this morning was 14mbps. Supposed to 108mbps average. They told me too many devices connected, so I turned off phone to 4g, turned off iPad and disconnect Amazon Alexa. Nothing else connected. Speed went up to 18mbps 🤣 ‘We are showing a good service!’ ByeBye.....

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @TomMockridgeVM. @Virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph. Despite trying to get information - after 24 hours, I have got nowhere trying to discover why my bill of £34 will rise to £64 next month! No extra service or work required!

  • amy_bramhall Amy Bramhall (@amy_bramhall) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia No. It’s been advised your contractors drilled through our cables and then shoved cement down there making it impossible for the engineers to fix. Day 9 with no internet today. Going to cancel as really need to work at home 😡

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia #virginbroadband #stayconnected. I am still a customer at the moment - however, despite txts to a number given to me - at 9:30am - no one has got back to me! Very disappointed

  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported from Bristol, England

    In the same month @virginmedia bill has doubled, the reliability has quartered. Internet at home is essentially useless & the WiFi router a clunky decoration! 2020, in a big city, and searching on Google is slower than an old dial-up modem. Usual awful customer service.

  • hasnat2002 Hasnat Ahmed (@hasnat2002) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia I'm sorry, without phone or Broadband I'm not able to confirm anything except that I don't have the service....or the service is being intermittent.

  • planet_dan Daniel S (@planet_dan) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried all that. You’ve even replaced my router. Nothing helps. The connections continue to drop. I am going to join the large group of people in the area who have left virgin because of this extremely poor service. We’ve been struggling with this since Nov 2019. Had enough.

  • RobertNolan1992 Robert Nolan (@RobertNolan1992) reported

    @virginmedia I’m from Ireland so this doesn’t work. When I try use the network checker from my account, it won’t work because I cannot connect to the network
