  Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported 8 seconds ago from Welwyn Hatfield, England

  Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

  John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported 3 minutes ago from Brentford, England

  @virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days

• 
  Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported 12 minutes ago from Northaw and Cuffley, England

  @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

• 
  Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported 15 minutes ago from Welwyn Hatfield, England

  And it's down again. #virginmedia

  Laura Cook (@LauraVCook1980) reported 18 minutes ago from Hatfield, England

  @virginmedia disappointed after 10 years of being a loyal customer that I can’t pause my monthly payments for 11 weeks while I’m not at home and no one using the broadband or TV!

  Enrique Guadiz (@EnriqueGuadiz) reported 18 minutes ago from Hemel Hempstead, England

  @virginmedia WiFi is an absolute total **** of a service! Reliable WiFi With the hub 5 bullshit! Should be thrown out of the window! No WiFi /service in HP2!

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 19 minutes ago from Watford, England

  @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

  David Renton (@david_renty) reported 19 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia I'd just like to cancel! Nothing personal! But stumbling blocks are being put up and it is tiresome.

  RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported 20 minutes ago from London Colney, England

  @virginmedia Now I am told they will send me a new hub as they do think I have problems T the house . That’s why VM booked a engineer it was not me who did it . Time will tell if the goal post moves again today

• 
  Jacob Smith (@JacobWSmith10) reported 22 minutes ago from Camden, England

  @virginmedia @skytv can you please sort out the sky sports app. I cannot login in using my virgin media account. It will not load the password page. I don’t really see why it logs me out periodically in the first place.

  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 22 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia Not good enough! I would believe you if this was the first time it happened but I am not paying £53.75 a month for this awful service and unreliable service… not when there are plenty of providers offering more for less.

• 
  Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported 22 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

• 
  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 26 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia I’m afraid not. I did ask to speak to a supervisor/manager and they said they would submit this request. My question is: is there actually a fault or is this an ongoing issue? It seems to be the latter, tbh.

  Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported 32 minutes ago from Barnet, England

  @virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.

  🦒🤓TimmyLDN🙄🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🦒 (@TimmyLDN) reported 36 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia Yes at £37 when as a new customer I could get it for £25. I am happy to stick at the £32 but you are not willing to match.

• 
  Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported 38 minutes ago from Ealing, England

  @virginmedia Thanks, John. No they didn’t confirm. All they said was that the issue *might* be fixed by August 2nd, which as you can imagine is far from ideal. Meanwhile, I’m also being charged a full month despite not having a reliable connection for over a week.

  Thomas Pirouet (@ThomasPirouet) reported 38 minutes ago from Chesham Bois, England

  @virginmedia is everything ok with the network today? Router has been flashing red on and off all morning, really intermittent connection however nothing shown on the service checker. Done the usual unplugging of the router, checked cables etc however still flashing red, then…

• 
  Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported 42 minutes ago from Harrow Weald, England

  @virginmedia Yes, I’ve done all these. Very frustrating as I only had a new super hub and cabling to house installed 2 weeks ago. Never had such intermittent service in 20 years of using virgin.

• 
  James Brown (@JammieBun) reported 48 minutes ago from Hillingdon, England

  Hi @virginmedia. I’ve tried phoning you with a complaint, but the calls get shunted into weblink hell. I’ve submitted two complaints through your site which have mysteriously disappeared from my account. And on Twitter the links you send for an online chat only ever lead …

  @virginmedia sort out the wifi in AL4. Been down two days now joke of a provider

  Jim Doran (@jai_dee) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia This is also happening on the website! It's not just an app issue.

• 
  Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported 8 minutes ago

  @IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????

• 
  Blake Plastering® (@BlakePlastering) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Please help: Tell me why bill 25th July 2026-26th August bill Cycle was billed at £79.34. My subscription is £52.95. Does this mean you charged me penalty Fees or other charges at cost total £26.39 / is this fee representative at x 1 month bill cycle or other? Why?

  faye (@fayfreddie10) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @moonpeach212 @virginmedia why don't you just release people from contracts when you cannot provide a good service.. ive had enough and will contact the Ombudsman now..

  Fred (@fred_fre) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia no cable tv in Erdington/Sutton Area (Birmingam), went down last night. Can you fix it please asking for a friend @villa4ever29

• 
  Johnycantdecide (@ladydaveg) reported 14 minutes ago

  Diagnostic tests suck, the myvm app sucks, your ai at the end of the phone can't tell the difference between zero and three and I still can't speak to anyone. Is there anything you can do right? @virginmedia

  “we are working hard to restore services as soon as possible” can’t wait to have no tv or internet for the whole weekend thanks virgin media for yet more shocking service

• 
  Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported 20 minutes ago

  @ulickdcox @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.

  @Johnty14 @virginmedia I worked for VM as a tech and I wasnt one of them but it was common practice by some rltwchs to feather knock so they could put the job off and blame the customer for not being in..
