  • iamchrissharp Chris (@iamchrissharp) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia all I want to do is cancel my tv and phone services and keep broadband but there’s no options to downgrade online only upgrade and I refuse to pay £94 per month

  • HelenWFreeman Helen Freeman (@HelenWFreeman) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia what’s the crack with the horrendous service for the internet today, every 10 minutes rebooting the router

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @spookysquidd @virginmedia Do let me know how your customer experience is when the shit hits the fan for you... when you have been a loyal customer for 14 years! 🙌🏼

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @DavidAHSleath @virginmedia I love the customer service when they just end the call half way through trying ‘to help’ I once spent 5 hours back and forwards with the every part of the business... engineers... blah blah blah... still was no better! Until I managed to get through to Scotland! 👍🏼

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @spookysquidd @virginmedia Thanks for your input 🙄 I have issues with how bad the customer service is in general. On that note it’s back down... 😴😴😴😴

  • Dyl_Atkinson Dylan Atkinson (@Dyl_Atkinson) reported from Washington, England

    Virgin media are not stupid like give everyone 10GB free data then nock everyone’s WiFi off so they go over there allowances😂

  • TonyYoull TY I 92 (@TonyYoull) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Shouting at Virgin Media on the internet work fix the problem. Pass it on

  • Earlosnicho Earl Nicholson (@Earlosnicho) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia why you bullshitting everyone you have serious concerns with your broadband at the moment I’m following all customer services advice and myn still isn’t working even your media connect app is down!! #sortit

  • mygirlsmyworldx laura (@mygirlsmyworldx) reported from Newburn, England

    @paul85uk @LivelyLot @virginmedia My wifi connection with Sky has been very hit and miss but the Sky Customer service is brilliant and prices are much better

  • MarcusRoberts13 Marc (@MarcusRoberts13) reported from Morpeth, England

    @robhinds @mark395625 @virginmedia It’s always baffled me how existing customers don’t get decent deals when you’re showing loyalty by staying with them. It’s the same with all utilities and when they say you have to CALL to cancel it turns into a nightmare

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @monsterwba1968 @virginmedia Don’t bother they don’t work either... after 6 months of shit internet I got one... still can’t get WiFi upstairs... and I am not in a mansion!

  • Earlosnicho Earl Nicholson (@Earlosnicho) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia @MTVMusicUK Wish your customer services staff could answers customers and solve issues as much or as quick as you advertise on social media #poorservice #buffer #noconnection #groundhogday

  • wal_tastic Christopher Walton (@wal_tastic) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia why is it again my WiFi not working but my current status saying everything if fine!

  • WillHowe Will Howe (@WillHowe) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia consistently excellent service and speeds but today has been a real headache, internet going down for ~20mins ever 1hr-1hr30 all day

  • Earlosnicho Earl Nicholson (@Earlosnicho) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia are you just responding to tweets you want to reply to your service is failing big style I’ve spoke to customer service to sort my broadband concern followed their procedures and it’s still not working #pathetic

  • fossdog_ Jake Fossey (@fossdog_) reported from Stanley, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • StupotSinders Stuart Sinderbury (@StupotSinders) reported

    @virginmedia How ridiculous is this? Moved home and trying to get any sort of "Customer Service" from either your online chat or via telephone call is near impossible.

  • MietzieK *Hanage* (@MietzieK) reported

    @virginmedia Whats up with your service??!! My internet is off every 30sec!!! Cant even send an email! When are you going to fix the issue? This is just cheating and stealing money from customers!

  • HansMolepigeon Barnyeeeeee 👾 (@HansMolepigeon) reported

    @virginmedia Nope, last time it took 4 weeks though, and as far as anybody was concerned as we were receiving the download promised there was no issue in the area.

  • judithadevine Judith Devine (@judithadevine) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to change package and add new box, have rung 3 times in past 10 days, now spent over 4 hours on phone. Engineer due today, not turned up , non one answering phone to explain? Cancelled. Waiting an hour to speak to retention team. Appalling service.

  • SafetyDave1000k Rob Bennett (@SafetyDave1000k) reported

    @virginmedia I am not able to reach the team on that number THEY DON'T ANSWER! This service is unacceptable

  • alisonwonder2 alison homewood #FBPE #JohnsonOut (@alisonwonder2) reported

    @PuddifootSimon @virginmedia Oh snap!! My bill has gone up from £67 to £99. For the same dreadful service. How come??? Roll on August when i can escape from the purgatory that is a VM contract.

  • chattyberyl TJ (@chattyberyl) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I know you have said that. It’s seems your retention team don’t want to keep your customers either. Still waiting for someone to answer me on chat. This really is the most dreadful customer service..

  • lordprg Paul G (@lordprg) reported

    @virginmedia Not ripping off my 94 year old gran would be a start. Not hanging up on me would be a good idea. Having consistent customer service would be great, however I've had a 50% success rate in 6 calls today.

  • JanT65794959 Jan T (@JanT65794959) reported

    @virginmedia Yes we have. Yet again another outage. Its so frequent its a joke. Absolutely rubbish service from you, especially when you take so much money from us each month.

  • HarryMolloy8 Harry Molloy (@HarryMolloy8) reported

    @virginmedia Just gives the usual service be back 6.50 pm. Now second day in a row no internet. Fortunately not required for work had that been the case I would have lost my job
