    It seems my @virginmedia goes down on a weekly basis at the moment. Usually on my days off...🤬

  • beefstock3 colin paul henstock (@beefstock3) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia so I pay £140 per month for your gig 1 broadband yet it’s been slow for last 3 weeks and the last 24 hours I had no internet full stop so how will you resolve this please.

  • ShevingtonShark SHEVINGTON SHARKS (@ShevingtonShark) reported from Shevington, England

    @virginmedia we have NO Internet at WN6 8BQ ALL DAY. This is very, very poor. What is the problem??

  • PammyVegas21 Pamela Lavell (@PammyVegas21) reported from Warrington, England

    When you cancel a direct debit pending an overpayment query, an extortionate figure is taken by them, you get charged £7.50 for late payment, you are on hold for 45 minutes and then they say the direct debit wasn’t cancelled 👀NEVER CHOOSE VIRGIN @virginmedia @SCOAF_UK

  • amh_910 alex (@amh_910) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia your service is horrific, whys my phone still coming as "parked"

  • pkitch1 paul kitchen (@pkitch1) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Having problems with our broadband, hub shows a list of critical errors, can’t speak to anyone on the phone, website is useless,where can we get help?

  • MrsFrisk Alex Fusco (@MrsFrisk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I've tried the customer service number 15 times this morning and it isn't connecting. The call just ends. I'm also worried you'll say you can't speak to me. I have a letter of authority but I can't be in my friend's house to call you while he's there due to Covid restrictions

  • wesleypearce Wesley Bennett-Pearce (@wesleypearce) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. This is the 4th fault in as many days. I’m sure it will come back soon, but repeated loss of service is incredibly disruptive when we’re all trying to work from home during the new lockdown.

  • wesleypearce Wesley Bennett-Pearce (@wesleypearce) reported from Salford, England

    Hey @virginmedia - third long-term outage in as many days in my area. What is going on and why is it impossible to talk to someone? Each time you triumphantly announced it’s fixed, something else breaks? This is unacceptable and your comms with customers is poor. #virginmediadown

  • ShevingtonShark SHEVINGTON SHARKS (@ShevingtonShark) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Yes, nearly 48 hrs now. What is the issue? I work from home, and currently unable to do so🤬🤬🤬

  • Aldonn_ AlexOD (@Aldonn_) reported from Manchester, England

    Thanks @virginmedia for going down in the North West bang on 9am when I'm working from home...

  • Timuslloyd Timothy Haines (@Timuslloyd) reported from St Helens, England

    And now you’re saying the only way to change the direct debit is to cancel contract, and start a new one on the right date... cost of that? £240!! @virginmedia really are corrupt.

  • Paul7Law Paul (@Paul7Law) reported from Manchester, England

    YouTube... Why you no work. #virginmedia issues?

  • DavidLaney ⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Major waiting time on your customer service lines again today! Your web chat says a possible 24 hour wait until get back to me!? You guys not working from home? Come on, that’s an option surely? Please respond.

  • Flanagan1Simon Simon Flanagan (@Flanagan1Simon) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia why send texts to customers saying the problem with your broadband is resolved when it obviously isn’t! Left hand, right hand, you know the rest #overpromisemassivelyunderdeliver

  • simonhunter87 Simon Hunter 🇪🇺 🚲 ☮️ 🥗🐈🐄🐒🐀 🏳️‍🌈 (@simonhunter87) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia why are your fibre upload speeds so slow? 10mbps upload on a 109mbps download speed? Sky and BT and others offer 20mbps download speed on their 67mbps download speeds.Please review this as when 2 people are working from home on video calls 10mbps up isn't fast enough

  • cpiyush Piyush Chechani (@cpiyush) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I got text update at 3:13 pm that service is restored; observing intermittent issues connecting to internet since then.. now the service status shows no fault but certainly there is some.

  • endaburke81 Enda Burke (@endaburke81) reported from Manchester, England

    Blimey yet again @virginmedia is down in Manchester :-(

  • rmckeown2010 Rachel (@rmckeown2010) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia has the tv channels gone down? As there seems to be a problem with mine 😩

  • DavidLaney ⚽️Lethal Brizzle⚽️ (@DavidLaney) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia 20 minutes currently on the phone waiting for your customer services to answer. What’s happening?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Doctor_Thomas Thomas Brownlee (@Doctor_Thomas) reported

    @virginmedia I've been getting low wifi signal in certain parts of the house. I was asking about getting the Hub 4.0 because I know it has expanded range and I've never had replacement hardware and that these were being given away for free to certain people.

  • Doctor_Thomas Thomas Brownlee (@Doctor_Thomas) reported

    @virginmedia I was told that I would have to pay for boosters to improve the wifi signal, but I'm just not willing to do that because I already pay enough for my service as it is and I thought that a replacement Hub wouldn't have been an issue.

  • mummysvampire Laura Quinn (@mummysvampire) reported

    @virginmedia just been on hold for an hour and after a long conversation with someone with the worst customer service skills I have ever came across transferring me to a supervisor only to have him answer and then the line go dead. I would expect a call back ASAP!! Disgusting.

  • nirajmehtz Niraj (@nirajmehtz) reported

    @virginmedia I have been experiencing a slower internet. I thought I was on a faster provider. I was told I can get up to 500mbps in my area. So I bought the 350 package and I don't even get 100mbps. I think this is not right and I have been missold. Please could someone help.

  • Hiltonian09 Graeme Hilton (@Hiltonian09) reported

    @virginmedia is there anyone who can help I have been without services for 5 days now I rely on the broadband for work

  • _jgriffin Jonathan Griffin (@_jgriffin) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting for your #CEO Office to respond to my complaint. #PoorService

  • SarahFegredo Sarah Fegredo (@SarahFegredo) reported

    @virginmedia Not a super helpful reply. Is this "The best customer service possible" Thanks for the complaint link-we'll be using it.

  • Frenchisfun Siobhan Hancock (@Frenchisfun) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on hold today for 45 mins, yesterday for 45 mins and last Saturday for 22 mins, all with no answer. I have had no TV service for over a week now. Please could you tell me how to proceed? Otherwise I will be terminating my contract
