🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@Virgin @virginmedia #virginmediadown #VirginMedia Imagine paying £52 a month for Internet to be down for 5 days. We work from home. I've used all my 4g, had to buy more to do my job yet when you call up they say it'll be fixed by.. and keeps being postponeded. Fix it Virgin.

Dide (@dide_oluwa) reported@virginmedia your network has been terrible for days now , no cell signal whatsoever
-
Pete Samuels (@PeteSamuels5) reported@DorzetRob @Artemisapphire Ditto here. We're between 3 towns. Sod all signal. Had to get 'wi-fi calling' on the mobile phones, to make mobile calls via the broadband. Smarty seems to work OK. Old copper land line now shut off by Virgin Media.
-
Oracle (@biggle1908) reportedLooking for some advice lovely people. For twenty something years I have had broadband from BT and TV from Sky. Sky’s renewal is coming in at over £100 per month and am currently paying £62 for BT which is now painfully slow. I have been looking at Virgin Media for both and this gives me a saving of around £70 per month for much faster broadband. What are people’s experiences with Virgin Media. Thanks in advance.
-
Dan (@DanMontgomery87) reported@virginmedia I’ve tried to use your online web chat to speak with a so called “agent” who didn’t respond for 5 minutes and used language that AI would use, if this is the kind of customer service you guys will be using then I’ll be looking to take my custom elsewhere
-
Ky Smith (@KySmith12345) reported@virginmedia can someone dm me regarding this pathetic piece of **** internet 😡

JayBee (@JayBee58963922) reportedJust had a call from supposedly Virgin Media, saying that there was a technical problem on the line, making my voice go all slowly on calls. Wow ! Really . Of course I fell for that. NOT ! What next, make me talk backwards ? Keep aware folks.
-
Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported@virginmedia Not my account so I can speak you about it. What happens though is, you start a stream and then it corrupts, goes to a black screen and goes to a “Error code: COMPO” then closes. This is not network related, it’s not a box issue. It is an issue with authentication
-
