LeChonk (@J_w_D94) reported from Horwich, England@virginmedia Hi, I'm tweeting from the device I'm having connectivity and signal issues with, I've looked on the website and it's not stating if you're having network issues or not.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful
-
zach close YT 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia you are so crap we don't pay you to keep having problems daily
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@DoctorLemma Well done . Always had great service from @virginmedia just cant afford them anymore.
-
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.
-
zach close YT 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, EnglandYou say you care about your customers and if you did you would fix your ******* **** Internet problems that everyone is having and don't even bother replying @virginmedia
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia In this room have always had problems but just not like today. The router is just over 2 metres from box.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Telling me an engineer will come next week now, not good enough. Waited in all morning for one that never came and still no service.
-
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
-
Matt Attwood (@mattwood1702) reported from Liverpool, EnglandInternet down no good when working home #virginmediadown #virginmedia
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.
-
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
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
Councillor Michael Haw *🇺🇦 (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, EnglandVirgin media customer service 🥴😭🤯
-
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.
-
Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!
-
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 👍
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia I also play Destiny 2. I thought it may have been their servers but my boyfriend doesn't have the issue.
-
Gary Banks (@GaryBan47314801) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia This is not the first time. The service the last 12 months has been shocking And now you're asking for the over the top increase in monthly payments 😡😡😡

emma_tr4_rhinos🦏🇬🇧 (@emma_tr4_rhinos) reported@YouMadBruv3r @virginmedia Says 28th status for fix its so annoying
-
HJM (@HannahJM1806) reported@virginmedia @alexand979677 Yay, let’s all mess about trying to sign in to the app on your laptop, to find a HDMI cable, plugging that bugger in and then hoping to all things holy that it actually connects whilst missing the first half of the game you’re trying to watch as opposed to Virgin actually fix it!
-
Cakes6G | Art on Objkt (@Cakes6G) reported@MickeyDN7 @virginmedia @SkySports Why do you bother giving your money to these huge, crap corporate entities is beyond me!?
-
Runningman (@frankieJnr66) reported@virginmedia How long has this issue been going on for now as I reported it 4 days ago and people saying it’s been 10 days? You surely can’t be serious!
-
Rob Heneghan (@robheneghan) reported@virginmedia when do you plan on fixing the red button sky spots + issue??? I can’t pick what games I watch on line. I don’t want to watch tv on my phone and I don’t want to DM you. Me and many others simply want to know when you plan on fixing the issue
-
johan cruft (@rjbjmb) reported@virginmedia I don’t have sky sports as part of my package with you but have been able to watch it since Saturday. Is this part of the same issue?
-
Alan Roberts (@AlanRob68902430) reported@Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Its grounds to terminate the contract
-
Gary Jackson 🇺🇦 🍻🎙📻 (@Gary_P_Jackson) reported@JFab208 @virginmedia 28 August according to service status
-
Gram (@Gram7070707070) reported@Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Worst company I have ever dealt with and it's not even close. They'll screw your credit rating by mistake and never, ever fix it. They'll hang up on you, the staff don't put notes on accounts and you have to tell the same story to 20 different disinterested call centre staff.
