    John T Davies 💙🇺🇦💛 (@jtdavies) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia We had issues last month, a nice engineer came (Mohamed) and said it was a local problem. I reported it on the phone again on Tuesday (Aqeelah), she said there are local problems (again). I fed up wit this, it’s been a week of impossible internet, day and night!

  • MrsJerryTweets
    SusannJerry (@MrsJerryTweets) reported from Hounslow, England

    @8252Hazel @virginmedia Yes it has been unreliable for a week now. Their customer phone line goes straight to voicemail. Monthly bill goes up by£9 this month for such a poor service.

  • TimmyLDN
    🦒🤓TimmyLDN🙄🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🏳️‍🌈🦒 (@TimmyLDN) reported 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.

    @virginmedia We have engineer booked for today to see what is the issue as since I upgraded never had such a bad service experience for the last 12 years with @virginmedia

    DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia can’t even set up hub properly. 3 weeks since I upgraded my speed and I receive still the same but they keep insisting (we made changes will approve by tomorrow) REALLY!!! Is technical support think we are so stupid. Get a grip @virginmedia next stop complaints

  • BarbaraMolony
    Barbara Molony-Oates 💙 She/Her (@BarbaraMolony) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia The service page doesn’t work, or says there are no known faults. I’ve been going round in circles with this all week 🤬

  • 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.

  • Mustxkim
    Mustakim. (@Mustxkim) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi is SO BAD. I’ve check service status online it says it’s fine but I hasn’t been working for 2 hours now. Wtf is you lot doing. It’s been disturbing for weeks now too.

  • HaiderAlRekabi
    Haider Al-Rekabi 🏴‍☠️ (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia mobile outage TW18 1DT no data no calls and most importantly no way to contact Tech support!

  • GeoffRogersEU
    Lord Geoff Of The House Rogers 🔶 #FBPE #FBPPR (@GeoffRogersEU) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia Yes but it just tells me to check my hub. TV has gone down as well so it looks like a cable issue and not internet. It’s not telling me anything else. Please can you check. Post code is KT12 3. And I’m not the only one !

  • Stefan_baisden
    Baisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedialife @virginmedia The worst service from any company I have ever used. I would like to be removed from your business accounts.

  • MarcoOlevano
    Marco Olevano, CFA (@MarcoOlevano) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia good evening, been battling with intermittent connectivity issues on your fibre broadband last 2 months. Have called your technical team before who just make you do the old school reboot which hasn't helped. Not quite sure why i am paying for a service not working

  • TimHole
    Tim Hole (@TimHole) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia thank you, I am trying to register so I can access the service but I can't receive SMS so I cannot receive my verification code. I tried to login but it said email not recognised so guess i havent logged in before. Please advise.

  • 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!!!

  • andburd
    Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MY21_Oracle
    Mehrdad Yousefi (@MY21_Oracle) reported

    Ofcom has fined Virgin Media O2 £28mn for repeatedly preventing customers from cancelling contracts, after it found that the UK telecoms group had likely mishandled millions of customer calls.

  • SmithChristian4
    Christian Smith (@SmithChristian4) reported

    @lukerobins @virginmedia I can stomach the £2 difference in offering, not sure if it’s area based, but a £14 offer for an existing customer when a new one gets it much cheaper is where I draw the line. Virgin I DM’d you as requested and you’re yet to come back to me….

  • Minutemarketio
    Minute Market (@Minutemarketio) reported

    Virgin Media Gets Fined 🫰 Virgin Media was hit with a £28 million, or roughly $37 million, fine by UK regulator Ofcom for repeatedly making it harder for customers to cancel contracts between 2022 and 2024. That is not just a consumer-rights story. It is a warning for telecom and subscription businesses that “retention tricks” can become regulatory liabilities. In a market obsessed with recurring revenue, cancellation friction is now a legal risk.

  • LYCOICAT
    Mila (@LYCOICAT) reported

    @virginmedia since you’ve merged with o2 there service has spoiled and causing me immense distress you didn’t read my dm

    @ElJaffoGuzman @virginmedia you won't help still waiting for a reply myself

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    BBCs report on Virgin Media is 100% accurate. When I informed them that i had moved house to an area they did not cover they pushed me to stay until my contract ended. I had also had several technical difficulties to which they delayed any actions to fix the tech issues; what was the issue? i was unable to change my email. I call their customer service dep and neither of them were able to help me. This happened on several occasions Where i had to wait WEEKS for very easy to solve problems. @virginmedia

    Activists & Agitators ✊️🖕 (@ActivistAgit8or) reported

    @Ofcom @CommsOmbudsman u sided with @Virginmedia in our complaint that exposed all of this abusive behaviour to customers. VM claimed a 3rd party was to blame for VM having the wrong address. Yet VM installed my mothers equipment at her 🏡 so how does that add up? U need investigated

  • daithigor
    Daithi (@daithigor) reported

    I used to be able to cancel Virgin Media over email. I have the emails to prove it. The last time I tried to cancel over email I was told they "changed the system" and had to ring to cancel.

  • fatmogs1
    fatmogs1 🐎 (@fatmogs1) reported

    @virginmedia What about poor O2 customers who have been trying for months, with loads of wasted hours of listening to hold music, to unlock their accounts. I have been told 17 times now that it would be sorted, still not sorted. I think I’ll need to move all my family’s phones.
