  • dodgestweet Matt Dodge Donnelly (@dodgestweet) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Hi I text two evenings ago when you told me too, and then received a very generic response about upgrading my package online. I have since text again to say that the problem is with the increase and that I may need to cancel but nothing back yet. Over 6 hours on hold now to you!

  • goneinsixtysecs Simon (@goneinsixtysecs) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia what has happened with the service in ne33 4hn area as I have no phone line no internet and no tv service

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • justraffers helen rafferty 🌹 (@justraffers) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia every month I have the same issue. Go to pay bill and despite having Google auto password (which works on every other thing I log in) it says my log in is wrong and I have to reset it EVERY MONTH!! EVERY MONTH!! IT'S RIDICULOUS

  • sportingpat Patrick O'Kane (@sportingpat) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia No, unfortunately I never got that far. Seriously considering just cancelling and going with a company that has more respect for its customers. Literally became a client 5 days ago

  • gazza_d Real Gaz of Trumpton #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @WilliamNB @virginmedia Nope. Stuff thankfully works pretty well but company is proving to be awful. Shamelessly trying to use the breach their sloppiness allowed to wriggle out of the gdpr queries I've lodged as a result of the breach.

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

    @virginmedia are genuinely ******* shit

  • MatthewEmmer Matthew Emmerson (@MatthewEmmer) reported from Gateshead, England

    Can’t continue to work remotely from for the NHS if this #virginmedia issue is on-going 😭

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

    4 days running wrang Virgin media regarding my broadband contract hold time of 40 mins then get cut off and in app support doesn’t help or live chat jokes man @virginmedia

  • malandbren75 Malcolm Hodgson (@malandbren75) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia emails are not working the solution by Virgin is to log into My virgin media can you tell me how to do this when it is not recognising my log in and your call centres are all closed

  • malandbren75 Malcolm Hodgson (@malandbren75) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I keep getting message that blueyonder server is down and as such cannot log into VM or get and send emails

  • sportingpat Patrick O'Kane (@sportingpat) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia Twice but very unsatisfactorily and although I was told at 5.30 that I would receive a call back within half an hour from a customer services manager, I am yet to receive that call. New customer extremely f***ed off if I'm honest

  • dannyrobbo82 Danny Robinson (@dannyrobbo82) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia understand that like every other business that you’re short staffed with the pandemic, but the speed of internet recently has been shocking. Website is useless, community help is useless. Don’t want to ring up, yet they’re happy to still take my money every month.

  • vitosauras Helen #RacingForAnthoine🇧🇪 (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    Hi @virginmedia sort the Internet issues out in NE10 please that's twice my connection has dropped in the last hour

  • goneinsixtysecs Simon (@goneinsixtysecs) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia three times since I first reported that I was having problems with all my services and it has gone down again

  • Marilyn_huartt Marilyn malibu (@Marilyn_huartt) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Can’t answer calls ems bouncing back. Wouldn’t it make more sense to just take everyone’s sports package off. Paying £125 per month at this my point my other half is ready to cancel everything when we can.

  • 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😂

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PutinTookMySon Chloe - 'Low Roar' Edition 🏳️‍🌈 (@PutinTookMySon) reported

    @ThatDangPhil I'd also take a moment every time it happens to check DownDetector and see if other people are having problems. Keep logs of it if so. Virgin Media typically does some load-shedding bullshit around 12-2am every night in the UK and messes with my connectivity.

  • pauldavies83 Paul Davies (@pauldavies83) reported

    @virginmedia doesn't work on my Chromebook either

  • ItsPrismatical Prismatical (@ItsPrismatical) reported

    @PitcyTV @virginmedia Same happened to us, my Mum had to call them to fix it...

  • cross_david dmc_uk (@cross_david) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, your service page says there's nothing wrong. Well my entire estate tells you otherwise. There is clear and sustained packet loss. Get it looked at and get it fixed.

  • DING_DONG_D DEON™DingerZ-Dj (@DING_DONG_D) reported

    @virginmedia why is it yet again my wife is have problems with your shame of a business. We cancelled the connection with you 3 weeks ago a box turns up yesterday and somebody in you company has activated the account how is thus possible it's ***************

  • trouse11 Tom Rouse (@trouse11) reported

    @virginmedia Yep - the service page keeps changing its mind on whether there is an issue or not...

  • d_jackson110 danny jackson (@d_jackson110) reported

    @virginmedia No. You don’t offer the best deals. That’s the problem. There was a deal for £39 for broadband tv phone and a sim. But I can’t have that because I’m not a new customer. So don’t say you offer the best deals because it’s a lie

  • carolinesgreen Caroline Green (@carolinesgreen) reported

    @virginmedia It didn’t help. Now have fuzzy blue screen

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • trouse11 Tom Rouse (@trouse11) reported

    @virginmedia hey there - our internet had been out all day in SE23, any idea what the issue is and when it might be fixed?
