Simon Bewick (@SimonBewick) reported from Whitley Bay, EnglandWell since complaining on here about @virginmedia and their terrible phone calls last week I’ve had 5 calls in the last three days all trying to sell me the same upgrade. Absolutely this close (fingers mms apart) from cancelling with them completely. FFS sort it out!
-
Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia Yes spoke to a member of the team, we have been having issues with our wifi. She offered to send another booster & cable out free off charge. Available on our contract. I’ve just received email to say my payments are going up to £60!!
-
Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England@_MMaritima @virginmedia Wired speed test would be to isolate between a wireless problem or the connection in. Router might be shielded which would kill signal. Make sure other electronics aren't too close. I can ruin my wireless if I put router on top of my TiVo box
-
emma (@ema_neale) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia Thanks for your reset help earlier it worked, unlike waiting 10 hrs for someone to finally respond to me again via WhatsApp. I was told that there were no offers for current customers yet your website states otherwise!
-

Mike Moody (@classicm) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia All my tv, broadband and phone services are down. Nobody available from Virgin to help. Done all the usual checks and still off.
-
NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandTime for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.
-
Scott Noble (@ScottN1504) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, EnglandHas anyone ever sent anything back to virgin media before? Need some help if possible
-
LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia 17 days with no TV service, finally resumed today after another manual restarts at this end. Any chance of a refund of half of this month? That's pretty dire.
-
David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia If there is any tools that you can suggest I use to solve my issue it will be greatly appreciated, I don’t mean to mean in your position but I just would like to know exactly what you can do SHAW at the end of the day I’m assuming you’re going to tell me to go to technical help
-
Phil Byrne (@Chickawacka) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia why am I having daily and sometimes multiple outages with your broadband service? Checked service status which always says everything is fine. It's so fine I need to switch off WiFi on my devices and use 4G. Thoughts welcome.
-
CazzaW (@CazzaW) reported from Walker Gate, England@virginmedia down in Newcastle? How am I meant to work?
-
Fraser Porter (@TheFraserPorter) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!
-
liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia why is phone network not working and plus can't phone people or text tryed restarting phone still. Nothing can't even ring you guys WTAF
-
Nic Johnston 🇺🇦🌻 (@Nicola_Johnston) reported from Mitford, England@virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?
-
Ceeb 🏴🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England@bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.
Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported@virginmedia 2/2 cont… ombudsman. You constantly failed to deliver a service, made constant promises and failed to deliver on them, so you were left with no choice but to agree to the cancellation. You are quite comfortably the worst broadband provider I have ever come across.
-
Cam (@Snickerboi95020) reported@TheMangoDemon @MrDalekJD I think it’s virgin media fibre connection - 2.5gbps up and down, it’s like £70 tho I think
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported@virginmedia First thing this morning you said the outage in my area (22) would continue for another week,then another message saying it would be fixed today, and now a message saying it'll be a week again. Is there a playbook you guys are using to wind up its customers?
-
Cububo (@pokerchamp_Cbbo) reported@koenjideck Only worked well for me in recent years, but it gave me a decade of packet loss and outages before then 😵💫 I remember playing games with people on my street at uni, and half the people would disconnect in a lobby whenever Virgin Media had an outage 🥀
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reportedIf it took me over a week to fix a network problem (it will actually be 10 days when @virginmedia get around to fixing our problem) I would have been fired. And you can't seem to register for compensation, even if you follow @virginmedia's own help system
-
Rorschach Slays🇸🇮🇪🇺🇬🇧 (@RorschachSlays) reported@misselledee @virginmedia This is normal. My friend has been on a broken line for weeks now. Engineers came out 3 times. His internet is still worse than his mobile internet. Virgin is saying everything is ok. Engineers barely know much more than: Let's reboot your router. Get out. Get City Fibre.
-
concerned person (@nkgms) reportedIs there a problem with Virgin Media tv in the Bushey, Hertsmere area?
-
LoobyLou1970 🇬🇧🏴 (@ldp17470) reportedWhy is your support so appallingly bad? @virginmedia Been waiting for almost ½ hour to get to speak with someone on the phone and the chatbot on the app has just gone silent on me. My 360 box won't boot up, tried everything to fix it...1/2
-
Claire Mawdesley (@ClaireMawdesley) reported@virginmedia just had a shocking experience trying to query my package involving a house move. Do you not have any staff you can discuss things with anymore? Or is it all AI as the answers I got made no sense. So I've asked to cancel.
-
Akita (@PwnProblems) reportedVirgin Media charge different prices for the Internet packages dependent on your willingness to negotiate. M350 package prices range from £29 to £66 a month. Today they told me they don’t accept blue light discount, which they 100% do. Don’t get angry, hang up, try again.
