    @virginmedia Anyways, your engineers are great, especially Robbie who came out to help us last minute. Still don’t know why our contract was randomly cancelled but we’re expecting more info on Tuesday or something, so I’m not gonna fuss about it on Twitter 💙

  • ChellyMat Michelle Mattos (@ChellyMat) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yeah we’ve been a customer for years, I know how to do that. The issue was that we got a new package (router, TiVo, landline) that got installed on Saturday afternoon, and by Saturday evening the package was cancelled for no reason

  • dancross88 Dan Cross (@dancross88) reported from Haydock, England

    Absolutely disgusted with the poor customer service and attitude of ‘Stefan’ from @virginmedia - rude, unhelpful and decided to end the call by hanging up instead of following my request to speak to a manager.

  • tiny_mischief Shaunna (@tiny_mischief) reported from Risley, England

    @FreelanceFee @virginmedia Oh don’t get me started on them. Relentless issues. But I’ve learnt if you kick up enough fuss on social media they’ll do anything to shut up you

  • ChrisPhelps78 Chris Phelps (@ChrisPhelps78) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia so you have deleted my tweet about the shocking service in the M41 Manchester Area great customer service to a 14 year customer. 350meg is worse than 200. I want a refund and not a joker telling me to reset my router #virginmedia

  • Dave_mona David Monaghan (@Dave_mona) reported from Walkden, England

  • amynaylorr AmyNaylor (@amynaylorr) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my 4G/Phone calls/Texts arent working on my phone even though I have 4 bars of signal, wondering if it's a phone problem or a problem with the virgin network

  • tiny_mischief Shaunna (@tiny_mischief) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia Nothing so far but our WiFi went down not so long ago, you upgrade us. Our box never turned up then there was a problem in the area (forever reoccurring) which wouldn’t be fixed for several days. Not good when you run a business from home

  • jjools4bob Jools 4 (@jjools4bob) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia @Rylan No the thought of seeing him makes my blood boil and my ears ache.Yes I am a virgin customer not happy with this shit.

  • Amymariehughes1 Amy Hughes (@Amymariehughes1) reported from Walkden, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • codeminus1 Steve (@codeminus1) reported

    @virginmedia There isn’t a fault, the issue is the current router. I have tested it with a third party AX router on loan and the bandwidth is far greater. So I know the issue lies with current Hub 4

  • nadean_ni Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia both tv and broadband have been down for well over 24 hours now. Not good enough! Any reason for this?

  • penthousechik Heather Watson (@penthousechik) reported

    @virginmedia It’s saying there’s a streaming issue in the area but the fix is 5th oct 😳

  • MarkTwenties morris minor (@MarkTwenties) reported

    @virginmedia ok. I have had it with you clowns. I have tried for 3 days on WhatsApp to cancel the tv service but keep your broadband. Well as the wi-fi never meets the speed that I pay for you can shove that as well. My contract ends in 22 days after over 20 years. I’m gone

  • carrih001 Honor Carrigan (@carrih001) reported

    @virginmedia Can anybody help otherwise I am going to cancel our contract had enough

  • tspivack Traci (@tspivack) reported

    We were considering signing up for @virginmedia broadband but our son has had horrible service. He is a university student studying computer science. His broadband was due to be installed in August. They have rescheduled 3 times. The new date is mid-Nov. Incredibly unsatisfactory

  • LeeJ79 Lee J (@LeeJ79) reported

    @virginmedia You don't have to look long on twitter to realise this is a problem at VMs end. I saw a Premier Inn customer is having the same problem as me this evening

  • inothalliday Toni 🐼 - she/her (@inothalliday) reported

    O2 has been so bad these last few weeks, I’m lucky if I get internet service half of the time! Can’t rely on @virginmedia wifi and now apparently can’t rely on @O2 mobile data… what’s going on 😤

  • MartinMurray40 Martin Murray (@MartinMurray40) reported

    @MoneySavingExp only ever kept it to facilitate broaband, switched to Virgin Media, no need for land line, whipped out 4 yrs ago, never missed it.

  • carrih001 Honor Carrigan (@carrih001) reported
