  • morganlowry3 Morgan Lowry (@morganlowry3) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Our tele has no signal, had problems with it for a few weeks. Some channels just have an error message of ‘no signal’ and others are pixelated so badly that you can’t see the programme at all 😩

    @virginmedia no internet in Cardiff and your website is down 👍

  • Robby_Potter Robert Everatt (@Robby_Potter) reported

    @virginmedia Any ETA on the fix?

  • Penwith92 Andrew Charlton (@Penwith92) reported

    @virginmedia It’s all well and good apologising but flaky service appears to be a feature of the VM experience. Cant be relied upon.

  • Jochelsealewis Joanne Lewis (@Jochelsealewis) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely dogshite! Yet again issues with the network, how can a company so big have so many issues…after 25 years of loyalty think it’s time to leave!!!

    @IanMorris78 @mikejjennings @virginmedia I don't trust it, I will never trust it.

  • psyniac_123 Psy (@psyniac_123) reported

    Living for all the hours worth of outrage at @virginmedia's to scroll through this morning. Nothing brings the country together like internet outage.

  • jordanjoecooper Jordan Joe Cooper (@jordanjoecooper) reported

    If you're experiencing the @virginmedia #broadband outage. Try using a VPN or if you don't have one set different DNS servers on your router.

  • harryd20200 Haz (@harryd20200) reported

    @virginmedia Do we get any compensation for loss of service that's affected your customers all night?

  • TeresaE85571426 Teresa Evans (@TeresaE85571426) reported

    @virginmedia Appreciate you have a problem, but how are you going to compensate us as customers that have no internet access that we have paid for?

  • iagdotme Ian Anderson Gray (@iagdotme) reported

    @kuuuushi @virginmedia Uggh, I feel for you. Shows how much we rely on the internet. Virgin Media is fine when it works, but their customer service is shocking. I just wish @brsk_uk would come to our area.
