-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.
-
Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)
-
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!!!!

-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia No, not really as you have reliability issues in my home which I believe is part the router and part the virgin line coming into my home.
-
UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, EnglandWith the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

-
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.
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Yes I did! Look at the last screen shot, that page was down as well with an error message. Useless copy and paste replys. Not helpful atall
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@Huawei21327032 @virginmedia They tried to charge 30quid a month for piss which isn't the issue it's a mix of virgin media kit and also the line. Spent 2 gars studying CISCO networking CCNA and they think I don't know what I'm talking about
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia I'm guessing they don't work Saturday Sunday, so that will take us from Thursday to some point Monday for a resolution? Would it be quick if I phone up, send me a case ref number or something?
-

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Chris (@Chrismtson) reported@Ofcom Still can’t get in contact with customer service today either via webchat and phone calls @virginmedia
-
Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported@MrGee27 @virginmedia I disagree. Having suffered their appalling service too many times over the last six months, I think the senior management should be marched naked through the streets of Basingstoke and pelted with rotten fruit. Every weekend for a year.
-
Vanessa (@Nameie82) reported@virginmedia Terrible customer service, i sent a message via chat confirming my new contract at 19.06 just to get completely ignored for 40 SOLID MINUTES!!!!
-
faye (@fayfreddie10) reported@virginmedia @BonesE78 Im also pleased that VM will be held to account finally our BB is terrible were about to report to the ombudsman as VM wont realease us from the contract without a Early disconnection fee yet even they say how bad it is .. go figure.
-
Aquanaut 2025 (@aquanauts2019) reported@virginmedia You are going down hill rapidly. Top management need replacing with someone who can sort your company out. I have put off spending an hour plus on the phone to sort out TV pixelation. Also fed up with being fobbed off with secondhand kit. I am out ASAP
-
Liam (@kestrel89B) reported@BBCNews @virginmedia make it so difficult to actually speak with a human. They love a #bot chat. Always upping the #contract and never actually have a valid reason. #virginmedia
-
