    Virgin Media - you've started with your poor connection bollocks again? It's been a good few month. You were doing well. #VirginMedia #SW11

  • HoarseRoar
    eamorugby (@HoarseRoar) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Still no service. Your website tells me service is fine. Over the phone the automated message is “an intermittent service” and when I finally spoke with someone they’ve organised a technician to visit next TUESDAY. It’s a mess.

    Dr Mantis Toboggan M.D. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@DazzlingHamster) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Your status and service checkers aren’t working. There is clearly a problem, somebody please offer assistance and not meaningless and not working URLs

  • P4TTL
    Patrick Smith (@P4TTL) reported from Chertsey, England

    @virginmedia Yep, no issues in the area. Everything was working up until about an hour ago, and now the Internet has gone very sporadic and constantly disconnecting, as shown by the ping test.

  • JacquelineCabl9

    @virginmedia How do I cancel without more incurred costs and wasted time

  • morish1
    maureen robert (@morish1) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • JammieBun
    James Brown (@JammieBun) reported 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 …

    Richard 🏳️‍🌈 (he/him) (@Paul___SW18) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Hey @O2 just struggled down to the shopping centre to take advantage of the @GreggsOfficial free hot drink & treat offer, via my @virginmedia account, (available until 0000 tomorrow apparently) but got here, and offers have disappeared from app or come up as ‘sold out’ 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • Deano1969
    Deano (@Deano1969) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia So. Would you like me to provide details of the complaint? My reference number maybe? Somewhere to direct message? Or do I just waste a huge amount of time hanging on the line to get back to where I started?

  • andrewlwood
    Andrew Wood (@andrewlwood) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia This problem is still here; internet has been sporadic all day, dropping out for several minutes at a time. You are not reporting any issues on your coverage tracker however.

  • judge_ravinder
    Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia Different messages every time. Mainly Connections issues, I have switched, rebooted and checked all day today…nothing!!!

  • traymca
    traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia this is getting ridiculous now! What’s happening with your service again today!!! Trying to watch on @BBCiPlayer and it buffers every 30 seconds!! Can’t watch anything and accessing websites including your own is so painful #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • jeannesmith1
    jeanne smith (@jeannesmith1) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia will lose my money as a loyal customer of 20 years standing, by slapping a 120% rise on my next contract due to start in November! Who else has seen such a massive percentage rise?

  • educationforum
    Andy Walker (@educationforum) reported from Worcester Park, England

    @virginmedia Your customers pay enough to expect 24 hour support. Do better.

  • judge_ravinder
    Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England

    @Spongette1982 @virginmedia I agree especially when this issue has been ongoing and still not resolved.

  • Hairouna92
    Fred 🇻🇨🤌🏽 (@Hairouna92) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Still down! Not sure what I'm paying for at this point

  • Griffo2018
    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia once again I have no Virgin media services at my home. I can’t even log in to my Virgin media app or access the Virgin media website by using my phone data. I have no way of checking the service status. TW15 area

    @virginmedia Post code is SM4 4NN , street name : Garth close . There is only one of these boxes on our street and given the condition of it ; you will not miss it if your team come here . Reference id for my complaint is 107332_22100. Can you give me a timeframe by when it will be fixed .M

    Hi @virginmedia, are there problems in the SW17 area? Your service status page isn't loading.

    @virginmedia And idea what you have not replied to my post and now ignoring my DMs? Breach of contract and you are now in breach of your complaint procedure

  • IainSankey
    Iain Sankey (@IainSankey) reported

    @NommeDeTwit @virginmedia They seem to favour new customers, so I expect I'll have to change again in 2 years or threaten to. It's really stupid that companies no longer reward loyalty.

  • GazzaAdams
    Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    Hi @virginmedia This latest update appears to directly contradict the update you sent me earlier today. At 12:57, I was told that an engineer **was already on site and working to fix the problem**, with an estimated repair time of **18:00 today, 19/08/2026**. At 15:24, I am now being told that you have identified the problem and that an engineer **is on their way**, with the estimated repair time moved to **14:10 on 21/08/2026**. This is the original date that was stated 2 weeks ago. Could you please provide an accurate explanation of what is actually happening with fault **F012421201**? In particular: * Was an engineer on site earlier today, as stated? * If so, why is an engineer now apparently only “on their way”? * What has happened to cause the estimated repair time to move from this evening to Friday afternoon? * Is 21/08/2026 at 14:10 now a reliable estimate, or is this simply an automated placeholder? I appreciate that faults can take longer than expected to repair. What is frustrating is receiving contradictory information that makes it impossible to understand the actual status of the fault. Please provide a clear and factual update rather than another automated status message.

    @virginmedia - resorting to contacting you here as other channels have failed to help me get a connection to your services even though neighbours have it. Please reply in direct message - thank you

  • marcwalby
    The Yellow Head (@marcwalby) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia Interesting, this was going to be my move in October. I have never used the phone line and we don't watch any of the Virgin TV stuff. Was it really that hard to get just Broadband?

  • RyanCartiers
    RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported

    @virginmedia No, that has resolved nothing. A fundamental change to actually learning to provide timely customer service is required. 6 min. to schedule a call back 20 min. later - approx. 30min lead time Pick up phone and resolve issue <5 minutes. who needs math class?

    @virginmedia @heid_the_baw_ You ain’t sorry yer robbing bastards , existing customers get pumped silly for a shite service , and can’t even get some one to talk to in this country , just a **** mob to deal with let’s be honest

  • HathorsDaughter
    Sue Henderson 💙 (@HathorsDaughter) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia They're dreadful. When I enquired about social tariffs via their chat facility the agent spent ten minutes trying to add on extra fees. I decided then I'd never have anything to do with company which would exploit poor and disabled people. Enjoy your dinner and drinkies.

    @virginmedia In this digital era how long will this fix take to apply? I want to watch the sport on the TV screen NOT on computer or mobile device!
