  • alandean1878 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.)

  • ZachcloseYT zach close YT 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England

    Before covid came you was brilliant @virginmedia but ever since then you have been really **** and if it not sorted by next Sunday we are leaving you it literally 2023 and you still got **** service

  • SmithysMaud 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.

  • CllrMichaelHaw Councillor Michael Haw *🇺🇦 (@CllrMichaelHaw) reported from Eccleston, England

    Virgin media customer service 🥴😭🤯

  • Parleyyyyyy Josh (@Parleyyyyyy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just done that. If you watch the video though you’ll see it doesn’t even let me get to the login page. As soon as I click on virgin media customer it tries to take me to a website & then closes down

  • supergran22 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.

  • ZachcloseYT zach close YT 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England

    You 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

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

  • NdawanaY Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia They worked on it, or so I thought. I was told they fixed some external connections issue (outside the house)

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  • supergran22 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.

  • TimmyJ1972 Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”

  • supergran22 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.

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Please contact me via this route - will be the quickest way to respond and resolve the issue

  • AckerHeron Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia fix ur awful service!!!!

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • AdrianBunn Adrian Bunn (@AdrianBunn) reported

    @virginmedia Originally on 28 May. I was told it couldn’t be resolved with an online complaint so I did a live chat instead on 4 June. I then got an email saying they couldn’t help and I had to call

  • soraya72 SorayaWilkinson-Wyke (@soraya72) reported

    @Simpsonius @virginmedia Going though same in Camden London now, they say they're working on it but it's 2 days & they say hope to be fixed by July 1st (but no guarantee). They're absolutely awful!

  • soraya72 SorayaWilkinson-Wyke (@soraya72) reported

    @virginmedia @KSachlfc You'd service checker doesn't work! When I call I'm told that's part of the problem! Have to keep calling & told soon! 2 days now & told yesterday maybe fixed by 1st July. Apparently loads of people affected in Camden. Awful service!

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning (@SiManM20) reported

    Hey @virginmedia what do the flashing blue lights on your Hub4 mean pls? Tried rebooting but no joy… seems I have a full on outage. Will this be resolved by the morning?

  • Lcawte Lewis Cawte (@Lcawte) reported

    @virginmedia It will be, but, had it come up with the terrible WhatsApp chat bot thing as well.

  • amylpatch Amy David (@amylpatch) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Since you did maintenance on B/band in our area 3 weeks ago. It keeps cutting out. At least once a day. Some times router needs a restart. Some of my smart devices need a restart every time it cuts out. As it is a blip I can't see issue via status. DMed details.

  • Col_Dunn Colin Dunn (@Col_Dunn) reported

    @SiManM20 @virginmedia There is an outage in the area “We hope to fix this by 28 June at 6:05”. Found out after mine went out just after midnight.

  • soraya72 SorayaWilkinson-Wyke (@soraya72) reported

    @virginmedia Camden London NW1 area still down, No WiFi 2 days now, & going into 3rd. Customer service never give honest answer & now online says alls fine but when you call told outage in that postcode & the problem is affecting the status updates!!! Such an uncaring company!

  • Constouche Constance H. (@Constouche) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi issue. It says that my hub isn’t connected properly. Have never touched it, but still did the full reconnection process 3 or 4 times. Guess what? Still not working 👍🏼

  • JohnWareWCP John Ware (@JohnWareWCP) reported

    @virginmedia I've still heard nothing. This is becoming ridiculous now. 5 days until it's been 28 days since I submitted my complaint...
