@virginmedia Hi, why does my 4g signal drop to H when I have or use voice call? Never used to happen when you were tied in with EE. Internet settings are correct. Thanks

Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia @m1kewh1te83 Well you see i have asked multiple times for a replacement HUB and told i was not allowed a HUB 4 unless i bought your 1Gbps service. Now why would i buy that if your current services are down regularly and wont replace my hub? Twice in the same week it has been down!!

James Kerr (@james_h_kerr) reported from Studley, England
@KRIPTO99 @virginmedia I’m currently surveying my village on our local Facebook group. Loads of people having the same issue, but nothing coming up as a ‘known network issue’. I agree - it’s making working from home challenging.
-
Jonathan Ward (@jaward916) reported from West Bromwich, England
@virginmedia Morning! So I checked the app for status and was fine, but on the website it said known issue all services. So I subscribed to the SMS alerts and it was "back" at 22:03. Hopefully it stays that way!

Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England
@ThreeUKSupport hi. My mobile number starts with 07305. It originally was issued by @virginmedia. I’ve had some companies try to call me (including the landline where I work) saying calls to this number can’t be connected or the number isn’t available. Is there an easy fix?
-
Lacie_Adams (@Lacie_Adams1) reported from West Bromwich, England
Well done @virginmedia screwed up again.. even on an online chat when it is written down infront of you you end up removing elements of my package I have specifically asked you to keep on 😡 it would be nice to have one good experience with you. How do I log a complaint?
-
Shannon Johnson (@shannxnj) reported from Birmingham, England
Tried to submit a complaint form to get in touch as your team have been so slow in responding. How can I get this resolved? @virginmedia
-
Andrew Jones (@andyjuk) reported from Solihull, England
@virginmedia can I request someone from your UK customer services makes contact with me being as I feel like one of your Indian agents has lied to me and another has accused me of trying it on.
-
Chris Jones (@Jonesy2310) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia It was an issue other people i. The area also on @virginmedia as well. Your initial troubleshooting script to question my connection speaks volumes though
-
blaster66 (@blaster1966) reported from West Bromwich, England
@virginmedia All OK now but didn't have any service for 12 hours
-
Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia so how many times do i need to contact customer support about my router to be eligible for a new one ?
-
JohnB (@JohnBroadbent3) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia another taste of shocking service from VM Internet down costing us big money on the phone for over an hour and then cut us off.
-
Steven 'STIG' Jones (@stevejones88) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia after 3.5hrs on the phone to your teams in every country from around the world today with horrendous customer service, can I get a phone number for a manager or complaints department in ENGLAND. Already filed complaint with communications ombudsman for Ofcom.
-
Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia Superhub 3.0 , it has been giving me grief for years, and had dns / ip resolving issues and so many others. All fixed with a hard reset, don’t wanna be resetting my router constantly

JohnB (@JohnBroadbent3) reported from Birmingham, England

@virginmedia @Theban Ridiculous / almost impossible to get in touch. Complaint lodged 1 Dec , I phone call unresolved failed to send booster failed engineer check failed call back - no number to call - can’t wait to get this to ombudsman - **** service massive cost
-
baloowho54🇬🇧➡️55 (@Al74lan) reported
So the last @virginmedia person hung up on me when I asked, calmly and politely to speak to a line manager! Terrible customer service... The worst!🤬
-
Jack J Mcnamara (@destiny2Help) reported
@virginmedia when will this problem be fixed ? Iv’e had no internet for a solid 9 hours now surely it’ll be back online soon ?
-
Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England
@virginmedia I appreciate that, however, this is not the first time and I'm guessing it won't be the last. Praying a lot of money for a service that doesn't work!
-
Rio (@RioNFFC) reported
@virginmedia No it isn’t! Where’s best to report it? We had an engineer out a couple of months ago who advised no issues but into day 3 of continuous no WiFi now.
-
Elliot Duck (@elliotduck) reported
@virginmedia just moved house and closed all bills online no problem. Even the council made it easy online. You’re the only account that forces me to call up. On top of that you tell me the wait time is an hour long. I’m obviously just going to cancel the direct debit ?!
-
Helen Rimmer 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported
@virginmedia I am sure you are but a sorry, an understanding of the impact this is having on people isolated from their families, trying to WFH and going into Christmas seemingly with the prospect of no Internet or TV. We want to connect with family who are alone but can't. Comms has been bad
-
Ashley Hannan (@ashleyhannan_) reported
@virginmedia Wired to the incorrect property and despite the first engineer saying all I’d need to was plug in after the work was done your customer service staff, after 2 hours of being put on hold and hung up on multiple times after getting through told me there was nothing to do but wait..
-
• Preetisb• (@Preet1_SB) reported
@bsinghvtd @virginmedia Omg thats bad...fixed yet?
-
Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England
@virginmedia After weeks of a landline service being non-existent I was assured this would be fixed yesterday, it's not! Vulnerable isolating person relies on this to keep in touch and in emergencies. Not good enough yet again. Fed up of feeling fobbed off!
