Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Lots of people are complaining about this on the customer forums. We've had very little downtime since the separate router was connected, it's suddenly gone to pot and seems to be a general issue at the moment.
-
David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England@virginmedia I know my line is spoofed, when an incoming call from a foreign country is giving out I’m not wrong number as I’m being spoofed I am technically aware of this I used to provide support for a very large telecommunications company
-
Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England@OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.
-
Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Mitford, England@virginmedia Ridiculous service from your team in Manilla. Both Joy & Brian telling me I wasn't able to pass security because I couldn't tell them my next bill date as the package/contract is ended even after telling them my normal date and all other DP information

Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
You’re Just Listening 😀 (@ChatchoMan) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK If Virgin Media are such money grabbing filth that they don’t want to believe a grieving person that contacts them and just terminate the contract they should at least backdate it based on the death certificate. Anything other than that is disgraceful.
-
Claire Shaw (@clairebaigent) reported@virginmedia I will not be sending you a private message because despite repeated calls over the past 2 years you have done nothing to help or sort it out. You’re currently charging a 90 yr old man £160 for services he doesn’t use, so please don’t patronise me.
-
Jenny B (@Myfourjoys) reported@virginmedia I’m not happy with yr internet service. Every day this week there has been a loss to my service and this is happening weekly. There has been times when I’ve thought it’s an outage! NO SERVICE NOW SORT IT OUT PLEASE 😡
-
Edson (@leftcheats) reported@youfibre After being with Virgin Media / Diamond Cable / NTL for over 3 decades.. I was worried about switching. Well, I made the switch. 1000mb Up 1000mb Down £25 for a 12 month period. Zero downtime as I post. AMAZING. Keep this up. TOP TOP Service Provider.
-
Martin Shrimplin (@MartinShrimplin) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Sorry to hear about your loss. It’s never a pleasant task making those calls. If you’d left the name of the company with terrible customer service out of your post, I’d have still guessed it was Virgin Media.
-
Vicky (@CityVicks) reported@jcbrough @virginmedia Honestly, why are they asking me to tell them if there are issues with their service?!
-
Sprout57 (@pwcwright) reported@virginmedia Yes, I checked there first, there was a broadband issue, kept going on and off all evening, seems fine today though so far
-
Shaun McCarthy (@shaunmc1consult) reported@weyland76 @virginmedia They 100% need to invest in the air conditioning at the exchanges, as soon as it gets hot outside the internet goes down literally every day
-
Freispch (@freispch) reportedCurrently suing Virgin Media so know what you mean. They caused me to miss a critical operation on my upper spine. Been left with life changing chronic nerve damage.
-
m a t t (@weyland76) reportedYet again @virginmedia not providing a service that I'm paying ridiculous amounts for each month - no internet AGAIN!! Absolute dog **** company.
