  • mands4walkies Mandy 🐩🐾🐕🐾🐶🐾🦅 (@mands4walkies) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia Please note @Ofcom that @virginmedia has been down across south west London for 48 hours due to a 3rd party digging up a cable. Virgin Media’s network resilience; disaster recovery; and customer comm’s are inadequate.

  • ryanchapmanx RC (@ryanchapmanx) reported from Blackburn, England

    How to waste my time 2019 - @virginmedia sort your customer service out :)

  • McGovernDanDan Danielle Hickey (@McGovernDanDan) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia The worker who was in charge told me the complaint would go to him so basically it was a waste of time. I have complained but I’m not confident in your processes 😡

  • cadeharry Nightsky Ceilings (@cadeharry) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia Seems like the whole village is down time to start looking for a new supplier for the whole village of Euxton.

    @virginmedia Hi the app says service is fine but when using text message constantly says not delivered but I only realise when I go back in later ... I think it’s poor signal in my home because I go outside it works ....

  • cadeharry Nightsky Ceilings (@cadeharry) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia Virgin media you should be ashamed of the rubbish service still 30 hrs after no internet. GUESS WHAT YOUR NOT GETTING PAID THIS MONTH.

  • prdent73 Philip Dent 🇪🇺 (@prdent73) reported from Euxton, England

  • Logical1966 Aaron (@Logical1966) reported from Preston, England

  • RealStuartCarey Stuart Carey (@RealStuartCarey) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been getting “ No Service “ since Sunday. My postcode is Pr42uj. Is there a problem in my area. 🤔

  • Lisa_P117 Lisa Patel (@Lisa_P117) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia starting to get sick of the rubbish service... first off my internet and now for the last week my TV doesn’t connect!

  • MrVestibule DV (@MrVestibule) reported from Preston, England

    Hey @virginmedia my internet speed has dropped massively over Christmas and is still poor. I get that people are probably using more bandwidth but this is unacceptable - I’m paying for 200mb & getting 10. I’ve done all the tests and resets with no joy 😤. #virginmedia #broadband

  • RealStuartCarey Stuart Carey (@RealStuartCarey) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia So I did it this morning and it said there was a problem in my area and it should be fix by 3pm today but I still keep seeing a “no service” sign appear.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • HunniMary Hunni (@HunniMary) reported

    @virginmedia Horrible customer service. Providing a broadband package that does not work and when continuously calling for an engineer to resolve they send the same engineer twice who is not technical to check further problems. Why are you wasting my time!!

  • GSABizDev Jonathan - GSA (@GSABizDev) reported

    @virginmedia There are no words for how poor the customer service is. It doesn't matter whcih channel. No-one is able to do anything. I would have no business if I shrugged my shoulders and on Wednesday and said to my clients 'never mind, we'll sort out your urgent problem on Friday"

  • stesol7 stesol (@stesol7) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. There is no outage in the area. Aren’t you obliged to provide working internet or if not, let me leave this horrendous internet provider so I can go to a reliable provider instead? Or do you just keep taking money out of my account and not do anything to resolve it?

  • Jackalag0 Jack (@Jackalag0) reported

    Virgin media is **** don’t get it #virginmedia #internet

  • BhavikrShah Bhavik Shah (@BhavikrShah) reported

    @virginmedia - have a complaint open since 6th Nov around internet issues and there has been no resolution.. been on chat for the past 4 hours and every time when nothing happens the rep says his/her shift is over and moves me back to the queue to wait again for hours.. pathetic

  • rao_rakhesh Rakhesh Rao (@rao_rakhesh) reported

    @virginmedia It's all sorted now, just took 7 days to cancel and change service, and was still held to the 30 day notice period even though we had been trying. A bit of flexibility and niceness would have been good. I wonder how many other people are struggling with this.

  • djp2k18 Chris (@djp2k18) reported

    @__iPanda13x @virginmedia @AskPS_UK Do a proper speed test, never trust the Playstation one. I've had it give me 12mb or lower download speed previously. I ran a test elsewhere only to be shown my full speed. Also my router shows me my speed when I log in to it

  • Doc_Kieran Kieran Doherty (@Doc_Kieran) reported

    @virginmedia horrible customer service, your automated phone service is awful. You can never get through to anyone. You will happily take customers money but don’t make it easy to speak to someone. I will not be renewing my contract with you that’s for certain.

  • DGNMoore Dominique Moore (@DGNMoore) reported

    Still not heard from @virginmedia now more than 5 hours, text message said response will be within 4 hours during working hours, which it was. Do not want to be charged US rates because @virginmedia location service is inaccurate by + 4,000 km

  • shazzadavison sharon chalmers (@shazzadavison) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for quick reply, our issue is he has recently been diagnosed with dementia and has destroyed all relevant details bar his account number. He is paying £113 a month and has absolutely no internet but we cant get anyone on the phone to try and sort this out for us.
