    @virginmedia broadband down in SE London again. Lately it’s been so poor. It’s been down for several hours. Any idea when it will be fixed?

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia What a surprise had internet from midnight and now it has stopped again. Waiting to get through to support and on hold safe for 30 minutes. You must be making a fortune on people calling.

  • RuthTongueBites Ruth Tongue (@RuthTongueBites) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes it has thanks but could I have an email address for customer care/complaints pls?

  • SimonBucks Simon Bucks (@SimonBucks) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It was down for the whole of yesterday. Came back eventually in the evening but too late for my working day. Please can you tell us what the problem was. The service is really flaky and for the price you charge I would expect 99.9% reliability.

  • ShelleyFacius Shelley (Facius) Stuart (@ShelleyFacius) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia me19 postcode broadband down please advise

  • scottdb79 Scott (@scottdb79) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia WiFi down yet again in SE6, what’s going on, can your servers not cope with temperatures above 30c! I think it’s time to stop using the #stayconnected tag line, it’s not doing you any favours. Some of us have to work to do and deadlines to meet.

  • chadoneit Charlie Done It. (@chadoneit) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I finally got through to a girl called Chloe. She was very argumentative and seemed to cut me off at the end so none the wiser. How do I go about making a complaint?

  • Breesey3 Chris Breese (@Breesey3) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia All I need is someone to talk to. I've been on this chat for nearly 5 hours and got absolutely nowhere with your "support". It really is atrocious. Is it completely unreasonable to be able to arrange a time to talk to someone on the phone? #failvirginmedia
