  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I did initially and then doesn't load the page Tried calling just automated sent me links to mobile the same links already checked and then hung up No estimated time of when will be fixed.. I guess it's with people finishing work and realising their service is down hmmm

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah known issue with TV Aim to fix by 12.00 No am or PM or date So not really much help !

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

  • DougHall18 Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia problems in St Helens WA9 any chance you know when will be back up and running had an outage all day before Christmas too and now again no TV !!

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia But we had that last night and was on for an hour after work and now off been off since about 6pm Not sure what service been like during day as working

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia If does now. 12:00. That's 17 hours without service.

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia BL1 2NJ Still having problems with disconnecting and connecting, been like this for 4 hours. I have reset my router numerous times

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia How long before the Internet problem is sorted out in the BL1 area going to take?

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia I've woken up to no Internet service at all, again

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia The TV is out The box just keeps going from no signal to starting up on a loop Currently ourphone line isn't working again I've lost count of how many engineers have been out ! We are paying just under £100 a month for what ?? Thankfully internet ok I'm a home worker !

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

  • catrionashanno2 catriona shannon (@catrionashanno2) reported

    @virginmedia after 3 phone calls totalling over over 4 hours being on hold to your 'customer support' resulted in one visit & finally internet connection & still NO TV & NO PHONE. Trying to hold down jobs ourselves in between you putting the phone down twice after a 1 hour wait

  • Janekelsey9 Janekelsey (@Janekelsey9) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried that text service on going since 12 midday sunday nothing solved and very frustrating

  • _dan_turner_ Daniel Turner (@_dan_turner_) reported

    @virginmedia Amazing as that page is, I'm not sure the advice or turning it off and on again is that useful over and over again. What would help is a translation of the text message I posted above so I had some visibility of what the situation is

  • ibapeacock herstory. (@ibapeacock) reported

    @MoneySavingExp After all the stress I just went through to get Virgin Media and their messy customer service 😭😭

  • scottynufc_1990 stephen scott (@scottynufc_1990) reported

    @virginmedia You keep cutting us off before even answering. She’s got through once,promised a call back and got nothing. I’ll be going to the ombudsman this morning. For a big company,your service is a disgrace!

  • PhilipBBerman Philip B Berman (@PhilipBBerman) reported

    @virginmedia Plus one Internet channel not working.

  • izziehal Izzie (@izziehal) reported

    @virginmedia I couldn’t cancel as once I got stuck on the password, the agent said there was nothing that could be done! And what should I say if I call up again? Yesterday I spoke to someone for twenty minutes who then put me through to this other person and I was on the phone for an hour!

  • Cottonsox88 CottonSox (@Cottonsox88) reported

    @virginmedia is there a number to contact you on? Ive been trying live chat but keep getting reset to the bot. I haven't had any confirmation from your web team that my install has been approved. My current service ends soon and I'm working from home so can't be without

  • johnylowe RubberJohny (@johnylowe) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. Do you know how hard it is trying to work from home when both your internet and equally your internet provider’s customer service department are non-existent? The only thing you have done this month is take payment.

  • dbp196 DBP196 (@dbp196) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. Has my network guy check all that. My number is 07818087768
