  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. It’s usually just one of the connected devices we lose at a time. Most often speakers but sometimes security cameras, sometimes hue bulbs. Never everything at once.

  • Bexybexxo Bex (@Bexybexxo) reported from Dorridge, England

    Seems to be issues with Virgin Media at my parents #mehhh

  • JoDtw Jo Darby (@JoDtw) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia There isn't a fault. It's never been particularly good.

  • AmritPahal Amrit Pahal (@AmritPahal) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia absolutely pathetic service, trying to run a business that relies on taking cards payments,I switched to you for the secureness of the line over fibre, since I’ve switched I’ve had more down time than standard internet! Callled up told nothing can be done until 9am!!

  • BrimmellDen Den Brimmell (@BrimmellDen) reported from Wednesfield, England

    So glad we dumped #virginmedia 18 months ago,they’re hopeless & their customer service is non-existent!

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The link you provide is entirely not the problem. We’ve had the same issue for 2 years. It doesn’t stop being a problem. And every time we contact someone about it, we get the same advice because there’s no continuation. Please read the message chain if you’re going to reply.

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s not a good enough response. You’re providing a sub bar service and yet I’m still paying my bill in full. I expect a discount until the matter is resolved.

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes it does. Apparently there is a known issue in the area and it won’t be fixed until 12 tonight. This is not good enough

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes tried that and just called ur CS centre. Once again the person who took the call couldn’t care less. This is the 2nd time this month it’s gone down without any explanation or compensation

  • Patchwork_Boy Craig Whitehouse (@Patchwork_Boy) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my internet is down. The connection (arrows) symbol is flashing and have been since about 3am. Tried restarting router, didn't fix it. Advice, please.

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia There is no weak signal. I’ve checked all around the house repeatedly. There are no faults in the area. I have checked repeatedly. Customer services have been unhelpful on multiple calls. Had to fight to get an upgraded hub!

  • mercede72928186 Mercedes Hodson (@mercede72928186) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @Ord_Norm_Bloke Yes Virgin media Wi-Fi is a bit crap I agree

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    If my internet goes down again in the next hour @virginmedia I'm voting Labour!!!!!!

  • mercede72928186 Mercedes Hodson (@mercede72928186) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia Was on wireless and re booted the box didn’t work, however it’s working now as you seemed to have fixed the issue. Thank you

  • Saq5000 Saqib (@Saq5000) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia The problem has sorted it self out for some reason as I got a message telling me that picture settings were updated when I had turned the box off for a whole day and turned it on again this morning

  • mercede72928186 Mercedes Hodson (@mercede72928186) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia hi Iv no internet could you run a check down my line please

  • rogj82 Roger James (@rogj82) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia 1/2 - I have never know such a disgusting company!! Having answered a call last week from this number 0345 454 1098 (your retentions), where your employee rudely cut me off when I said I could’nt talk at the time, hounded every day since with calls, right up until...

  • cra1gs Craig (@cra1gs) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia having problems again with the internet. Apparently your app says it’s fine. It’s not. Sort it out.

  • dianej1980 di (@dianej1980) reported from Birmingham, England

    Senior manager at @virginmedia has no customer skills what so ever telling me his going to terminate my contract because of an issue with my bank card that they have since taken payment from month after month same issue defo will not reccomend to anyone

  • rogj82 Roger James (@rogj82) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia 2/2- just when my wife answered the phone and your employee told her to f**k off when she politely declined any new deals or offers! Absolutely digusting, glad to be leaving and fair to say if that is how you treat customers of 11 years in total we will never be back

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ConnorK82187890 Connor Kirby (@ConnorK82187890) reported

    @virginmedia I was meant to get a 70 pounds credit on my account when I made it for terminating my old contract. I've spoke with 3 different people to try and resolve this and it hasn't been put on my account resulting in my bill been 89 pound which I am not paying. Bad start.

  • lynne_macleod Lynne MacLeod (@lynne_macleod) reported

    @virginmedia I'm not sure. I have managed to terminate the contract but it went via bpo collections so I do not know if my credit score has been affected. The experience has been awful. Even your complaints department were incompetent when I approached them, very very poor service

  • JohnnyDude1983 🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported

    @virginmedia Faults and customer experience 😳. #virginmedia

  • elfdior snow ( taylor’s version ) (@elfdior) reported

    @virginmedia not cancelling my **** when I’ve asked like 500 times yer shite i want sky

  • anu1997909 anusha hariharan (@anu1997909) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. On your website it says there’s an outage and the estimated fix time has been changed several time to 18:20 today. Can I expect it to be fixed by this time?

  • christmasDean2 christmas Dean (@christmasDean2) reported

    @virginmedia Why? Why should I? Just tell me what's going on and give me a realistic fix time? Christmas? Halloween? It's been 3 days!

  • lynne_macleod Lynne MacLeod (@lynne_macleod) reported

    @virginmedia by far the worst company I have ever had to deal with. Leaving you after my contract ended and giving 30 days notice has taken 4 months. Staff are incompetent, and contact is nigh on impossible. I wouldn't recommend you to anyone

  • AlanHampstead Alan Margolis (@AlanHampstead) reported

    @virginmedia Rather a shame I had to approach their Executive Office to finally get resolution to my feedback & complaint. Anyhow they seem to value my business because they sorted it out very fast. Thx

  • lh2467 LH 2457 (@lh2467) reported

    @virginmedia three weeks ago I reported that my landline phone cable had been accidentally cut by a workman.i was told you no longer repair the old cables and I would be sent an adapter to connect my phone to my router I am still waiting and paying for a service I can't use .

  • gleavesrobot Poppy (@gleavesrobot) reported

    @virginmedia what’s the number for the complaints department. I’ve been a week without WiFi. Got my new box. Worked for an hour. Connection keeps dropping. Tech team meant to get back to me to today been 3 hours. I’ve had enough & I’m ready for cancel. Only renewed 7 days ago
