    BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+

  • Allenwalkden
    Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    Internet @virginmedia is down in WA10 and your device status page is giving a 404

  • TheWiganParky

    @virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.

  • Glynpeach
    Glyn Peach (@Glynpeach) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia worst customer support service I’ve ever experienced

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  • agarnett
    Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • FloButcher84
    strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?

  • davidbirkdale
    David Jones (@davidbirkdale) reported from Southport, England

    Very poor service from @virginmedia for a friend of mine in the Stockport area. No TV now due to failure of upgrade, engineer can only go on Tuesday. Better off with Sky!

  • ylilxanoi
    🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia We have. Multiple times. Your agents don't know how to help. Spoke to 3 different people. I'm getting contant update emails. I don't need to check the service. I know its down. This is beyond ridiculous. I work from home, I can't do my job because of your terrible service.

    @virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.

    @virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.

  • John_Kelly17
    John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England

    @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  • Adzcantsing
    Adz can't sing (@Adzcantsing) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia useless we are trying to cancel and for past 2 weeks now since we have moved home. We have been pushed from pillar to post, been laughed at by customer service. Since we moved we have we've been promised someone will come and sort it.

    @virginmedia worst customer service ever

  • BooCavapoo
    BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia

  • fos100
    Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I also play Destiny 2. I thought it may have been their servers but my boyfriend doesn't have the issue.

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • elisabethhilto4
    Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England

    @virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently

  • PGriffinFC
    Paul Griffin (@PGriffinFC) reported

    Watched the awful England game on Virgin Media. Judging by my timeline, the commentary of Sam Matterface and Lee Dixon was a lot worse. They're getting a right pile on. RTE's punditry is terrible for the WC. No choice elsewhere. I have never seen analysis so bad.

  • emmawhufc42
    Emma ✞ 🦌 (@emmawhufc42) reported

    I’m trying to cancel Netflix but now I have to call virgin media because it’s through them I’ll be back in six hours once I’m off the phone

  • Malcolm_Sillick
    Malcolm Sillick (@Malcolm_Sillick) reported

    @London_W4 The trouble is that O2 are now in bed with Virgin Media, who also have dreadful Indian 'Tech Support', who can't sort anying out and just read from scripts. Like many companies these days, if you can even find a phone number, they just give loads of messages, telling you to go to their website. The UK could do with a dose of American style customer service!!

  • Wmb1877
    William Bell (@Wmb1877) reported

    @Just_Katie_x @virginmedia Had a similar problem with them years when cancelling due to moving house. Absolutely useless would never use them again.

  • argyledavros
    Dave Warrilow (@argyledavros) reported

    Massive problems with @virginmedia in #Southend. Broadband hasn't been working properly for over a week. Service checker keeps changing excuse, so you can't book and engineer. Tried calling on hold for half an hour then cut off. Shocking service.

  • fpl_goldenboys
    FPL Hornet (@fpl_goldenboys) reported

    @virginmedia Down every day this week, utter crap

  • JulieFeronica
    littlemisssunshine (@JulieFeronica) reported

    @virginmedia what's going on in CF14? The broadband is constantly dropping out. App is useless... always says there's nothing wrong until I check the hub, then it's an "intermittent signal". This is just woeful.

  • LaraMitchard
    Lara Mitchard (@LaraMitchard) reported

    @virginmedia There seems to be a broadband issue in HP1 as I have no services and your outage page has identified an issue. Any idea how long this will be down?

  • SarahDruscilla
    Sarah Loughran (@SarahDruscilla) reported

    @O2 since joining virgin media the coverage in Milton Keynes is terrible. I’m almost always on 1 bar. You’ve gone from being the best signal in the area to probably the worst.

  • fp2072
    FordPrefect (@fp2072) reported

    @virginmedia 20+ years of being with you and I'm leaving as you want to charge me nearly 50% more than a new customer, go figure
