  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    £15 to watch each football match that's not scheduled to be televised? **** off @premierleague you greedy bastards. no way I'm paying that. i already pay £110/month to @virginmedia as it is. I'll just watch other sports instead.

  • alex_jrobertson Alex Robertson 🏳️‍🌈 (@alex_jrobertson) reported from Southampton, England

    @guill0dean @virginmedia @VirginAtlantic It's a shame cause they've been really good with my parents. Fantastic speeds, friendly staff on the phone, speedy response. They've got nothing but praise for VM! It's one of the reasons I joined them for mobile. Mad how varied their customer service can be 🤔

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    ok, what's going on with @Channel4 and why is the signal going? either @virginmedia is playing up, or this is part of the @DerrenBrown experiment

  • _GSPhotography Graham Scambler pics (@_GSPhotography) reported from Eastleigh, England

  • RobDrew3 Metal Mickey 🇨🇦🇰🇪🇺🇸🇱🇨🇩🇪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RobDrew3) reported from Fair Oak, England

    @BileysMullet @virginmedia We've had problems with utility warehouse and their solution always seems to be to pay to upgrade. Cant remember who we were with before that but we never had problems.

  • harrisondafydd Harrison🚴‍♂️ (@harrisondafydd) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Don't do it. So many hidden fees, shite customer's service & woeful WiFi connection

  • spoise87 Marc (@spoise87) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes outage was fixed after about 3 days. I had to wait for a new router. Was told this would be deducted automatically from my next bill

  • gazhere57 Gary Hynes (@gazhere57) reported from Totton and Eling, England

    I have been trying to get through to @virginmedia by phone since lockdown to cancel all of my subscription services. I just never get through. I have had my new provider in place for months. It just seems Virgin are not interested in supporting customers that want to leave.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AudiologyPlanet Jay Jindal Au.D. (@AudiologyPlanet) reported

    @virginmedia have 1 gig internet from you. Paying top £ but it’s not working for last 3 days. Your support is less than helpful and can’t sort it until at least three more days. What do I do? How do I work? Change connection?

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I will try again by unplugging the router etc. However other people living near me are also experiencing problems. It is not just me.

  • AudiologyPlanet Jay Jindal Au.D. (@AudiologyPlanet) reported

    @virginmedia #NotConnected #NoHopeOfBeingConnected for another 3 days No joy with your tech support. Just had a conversation with someone who said the same thing 13 times in 17 min without listening to me #BetterConnected ?????

  • Danwoolno Daniel (@Danwoolno) reported

    @virginmedia It was regarding no connectivity in the building and establishing why that is. Customer service agent literally said "yes, I'll call you back if the line drops". After a 40 min wait you can understand why I'd jump ship? And this is for a big commercial building.

  • oenone_rodgers Oenone Rodgers (@oenone_rodgers) reported

    @virginmedia After 8 hours of trying to get through I finally was able to cancel the contract. I genuinely don’t understand why you cannot do this online? You’re only pushing customers away with the poor customer service.

  • caolanxyz Caolan 🇨🇭en SUISSE🇨🇭 (@caolanxyz) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to arrange moving my service to my new home via live chat for days, but every time have been in the queue for hours before being cut off Either I need to move my package or cancel it, but neither is possible right now

  • AarronCousins Aarron Cousins (@AarronCousins) reported

    @virginmedia GU21 3 area down or not? It says there are no issues on your website, so I assume it's our router, I book an engineer appointment, then an hour later it gets cancelled while you "investigate" even though it shows no issues in the area. So what is it?

  • clocksncandles Ian @ Davenports Handmade (@clocksncandles) reported

    @virginmedia Checked it. Showing as no issues with service in our area

  • theresahiggins Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes done as above. Still agonising slow. Cannot send attachments on emails.

  • johnniepk Johnniepk (@johnniepk) reported

    @virginmedia Some lovely packages and discounts for new customers! I'm now out of contract. The best you can do for loyal customer of 10 plus years is an 18 month contract with much less included for more £s than new customers. I thought this sort of practice was outlawed now.
