    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

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

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

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

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • 92Tevs Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

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

    @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

  • NatashaVic Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

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

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • 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

  • MilneDi Di Milne (@MilneDi) reported

    @virginmedia In fact it’s gone off again. So he’s there is an issue.

  • hatter the hatter (@hatter) reported

    @Juggzy @virginmedia They can hopefully help you fix local WiFi issues as per their guarantee, but they first need to know if it's a line issue or if it's a local issue

  • teragramytrehod Margaret Doherty (@teragramytrehod) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I've had an email after we called you, saying we need to call you on the "given number" but the only number given is 0345 454 1111* for satisfaction (not technical support). What's the right number?

  • antspelly10 Anthony Spellman (@antspelly10) reported

    @virginmedia charged £237 disconnection fee for moving to a house they could not provide service. to. Paid full whack for over 30 years at our old address to Virgin…thanks for your loyalty Ant !! #classy

  • accrusc AccrusC (@accrusc) reported

    @virginmedia Wired, it's also the only device being used. Up until this week I have been seeing upload speeds of 25mbps+. I don't understand what the issue is, it is constantly below 1mbps now. It shows no issues on the website

  • hatter the hatter (@hatter) reported

    @Juggzy @virginmedia It's not helpful, you're right. But neither is asking them to fix something then complaining when they ask a question to try to help diagnose what to fix

  • jchhcj47 jchhcj (@jchhcj47) reported

    @virginmedia I have. Status is ok but my wi-fi is down. Icon on hub is flashing green intermittently

  • MilneDi Di Milne (@MilneDi) reported

    @virginmedia It’s come back on. It’s just that the message on your service status line sounds like it’s planned. Just saying we are working to make your service better. Not that we are working to fix an issue. So it sounded like it was planned.

  • tfid23 Tommy Fidler (@tfid23) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. I never knew I had a final bill to pay, so they will be sending this. I don’t know what the £10.97 will be for though. I paid by direct debit and informed I did not want to renew my contract well before it expired and it was turned off on the last day of my contract.

  • tooting1977 Tooting1977 (@tooting1977) reported

    @virginmedia Please don't sponsor Team GB! Your awful service may rub off on our national team! Crap communication, slow service, inability to solve problems etc..... Get your disgusting logo off Team GB!!!
