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

    @virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.

  • ylilxanoi

    @virginmedia Yeah.. apparently its down in WN1 but nobody is telling me what's wrong or how long it will take. I need Internet to work.

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

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

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

    Since I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?

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

    @virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid

    @virginmedia you are so crap we don't pay you to keep having problems daily

  • andrewjmcgill
    Andy McGill (@andrewjmcgill) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia I have been without broadband all day, a day after you sent me a letter about price increases, an increase for what, even poorer service!!!!

  • 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

    @virginmedia broadband being down again, how, why

  • 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?

    @virginmedia your Internet sucks

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

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

    @virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.

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

    @nerdscav @the_hinchy @virginmedia Yes because a WiFi extender will fix the issue when it's the incoming line and not the hardware 😳. The routers gives a 3ping and 1GBps connection. The issue is virgin's crappy network 👍

  • duckyblog

    @virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.

    @virginmedia had a link to change my password and every combination I’m trying says strength invalid. Help.

  • obpls1995
    owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

  • 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

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

    Joanna Ayliffe (@joanna_ayliffe) reported

    @virginmedia how do you manage to charge me for a service you barely provided but won't let me bill you £25 for an engineer who did not arrive between 8 and 12 on the day in question?

  • gwfvrowell
    Garry (@gwfvrowell) reported

    No Wifi or TV for four days now, Customer service promised a call back and not a peep, expect better @virginmedia

  • mikedun95307737
    mike duncan (@mikedun95307737) reported

    @virginmedia You really need to up your game virtual chat about as much use as a chocolate ashtray. You promise something in the Contract and not deliver it. No am not the account holder but money comes from my account. Get your act in order because at the moment it is crap

  • HonestJ89478453

    @EoinLenihan Virgin Media promoted by FFG without public consultation to status of a Public Broadcasting Co Should not be allowed on X to use an a/c when reporting on a news incident eg. Skerries brawl which denies the public to make comment When they allow only selected accounts reply

  • VirginMediaNews
    Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reported

    The US military has launched an eighth night of air strikes on Iran after Tehran attacked a US military base in Jordan. Two American service members died, while a third was listed as missing in action. The US military says the strikes are designed to further degrade Iran’s ability to threaten commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Telecom contracts in this country don't make any sense to me. Anywhere else in the world, the more loyal you are to the operator, the better deals they give you to keep you as a customer.

    @virginmedia my virgin tv isn’t working. Done everything I’m supposed to do. Do not want to wait 24 hours to see if it’s resolved - I pay for a service I’m not getting. Please help
