    @virginmedia Yes I’ve checked it each time it has occurred and there’s no problem showing, I’ve also restarted and rebooted numerous times over the last couple of days and it still intermittently just stops working.

  • ChrisLaws1 Chris Laws (@ChrisLaws1) reported from Cheadle, England

    @virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments

  • MattBennett93 Matt Bennett (@MattBennett93) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Well do you not think if I'm only getting a service for 80% of the time, I should only be paying 80% of the bill?

  • NeilBarker72 Neil Barker (@NeilBarker72) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Is anybody having issues with @virginmedia internet. My neighbours is running ok but is off.

  • J9PVFC J9PVFC (@J9PVFC) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

  • swoolly1970 Steve woolliscroft (@swoolly1970) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to watch @stokecity , I pay you good/ hard earned money for your service and this is what you give #shocking

  • andytideswell Cook Pass Babtridge (@andytideswell) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia absolutely awful service. So much for looking after elderly and vulnerable customers. Trying to sell services that are not needed or wanted.

  • IXL Ian Fraser (@IXL) reported from Keele, England

    Dear @virginmedia. I’d like to cancel my account. I’ve called 4 times this afternoon, put on hold for ages and been disconnected each time. Why are you making it so hard?

  • sh33ran7 Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia what is happening with your broadband?? I don’t pay stupid amounts of money each month for it not to work!!!!!

  • Laaana_bananaaa 🍃Lana Banana🍂 (@Laaana_bananaaa) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    How ******** can Virgin Media say it's too expensive to connect us with WiFi in this area and would take them years to earn it back, when other people in the smae street have it!!??? 🙃😠

  • dazholdcroft1 Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TerryBossons @virginmedia Since Covid no body answers phones any more crazy, shocking though that is @TerryBossons really bad costumer service and lack of information I had this with Sky very similar 2 very poor service providers with little thought of what’s going on in todays climate

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia you know when a customer makes a complaint (twice) and you say that the customer will receive a phone call within 24-48hrs. Is this true or do you just make it up as you go along? Thanks.

  • Faeeeriee Kerys🐝🇺🇦🙏🏻 (@Faeeeriee) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Think Virgin Media just **** the bed. What’s happened?

  • Jess_L_Oliver Jessica Oliver (@Jess_L_Oliver) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

  • Th3V1k1ng Jay Tungsvik (@Th3V1k1ng) reported from Bucknall, England

    @virginmedia Nope... back home after being out since 7am. And guess what... no virgin broadband... Still. I can't work. I can't stream. I can't log into the EA/STEAM apps to play games on my pc. Thanks for putting my costs up and dropping the service @virginmedia

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • charleshadji Charles Hadji (@charleshadji) reported

    @virginmedia And Kavita has tried to raise a complaint and she told me “the complaint tool is not working and I cannot raise a complaint on your behalf” and then disconnected the call when I asked why. Great service 👍

  • KulpaMichelle michelle kulpa (@KulpaMichelle) reported

    @virginmedia Just to advise BT did fix it, thanks 👍

  • Delta_Blue1 Delta Blue (@Delta_Blue1) reported

    @virginmedia Hub located by your engineers, new build so thin walls. I ran your scanner app, it says I need a booster. Apart from the link saying it’s not even possible to get hold of one, why should your customers pay £5 a month extra for poor WiFi signals?

  • DJ_Unreal DJ Unreal (@DJ_Unreal) reported

    @virginmedia Will do! I've just run another test set and it's still terrible, so I'll keep an eye on it and let you know if things improve. I was considering upgrading to a faster connection at some point but right now I'm not sure this would help (and my M350 should be adequate anyway)!

  • gavin_bowen Gavin Bowen (@gavin_bowen) reported

    Here's a tip. If ever you need customer services with @virginmedia #VirginMedia tread carefully & take a big stick!...just lost an hour of my life in an argument over £64.50 they were trying to bill me for when I changed to Sky in January....incompetent! STEER CLEAR! IDIOTS!

  • sjobrien86 Sarah-Jane O'Brien (@sjobrien86) reported

    @virginmedia Well I know that but it’s disappointing that we have been let down by you but are unable to leave your service without paying a charge. We were told it could take up to three days to reconnect.

  • ClarissaGiebel Dr Clarissa Giebel 🇪🇺 (@ClarissaGiebel) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, ever since I've had the internet since March. It's wireless and I even have a booster, but I never get through your call service either

  • peterstirrup (@peterstirrup) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve checked it. Service isn’t down in our area

  • charleshadji Charles Hadji (@charleshadji) reported

    @virginmedia Nobody called me back, the issue remains. I spoke today with Preeti who promised a manager call back (didn’t happen), Katie and Kavita (the rudest person in the world). Nobody can tell me if a technician checked your network as instructed by James earlier this week. Please advise

  • robpburns1965 Rob Burns (@robpburns1965) reported

    @virginmedia I have been overcharged by more than £180 and getting nowhere - the access to @virginmedia via phone is just awful. I request a refund, not a credit on my account, are you able to help John?
