  • WUFC2005 Football 4 All (@WUFC2005) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia nothing but issues. 2G & 5G always stops working. Updates happens when ever it feels like. And every time I contact Virgin, it's like talking to a 6 year old.

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia WHAT AN AWFUL SERVICE YOU ARE PROVIDING! Internet down over 1 hour, your automated service hangs up when saying it’s going to test my line and when I ring and go to ‘ want to leAve’ that’s a 10 min+ hang on phone Sort yourselves out Virgin Media😡

  • LawroGardiner Lawrence Gardiner ➡️ (@LawroGardiner) reported from Basildon, England

    @Dianemiddleto @tankhead666 @virginmedia Thanks. I got the text hours after talking to Virgin Media on the phone to activate my hub after a house move. Never had it before. Something not right in their call centres.

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    Virgin media - your automated service has a flaw, it just repeats the same message, ‘ no faults found’, when there is a fault, like my internet is giving 2Mb download right now

  • HazardOnTrack Aaron (@HazardOnTrack) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia please sort out the issue with Broadband in ME5 - Walderslade. #ItsYouNotUs

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia So only total loss of service allows me compensation,just 7 days of really awful service including customer services, when asked about compensation and I query the criteria,throw a ‘sorry I can’t hear you’... Now that’s really awful customer service 😡

  • marcsnappy Marc Corn (@marcsnappy) reported from Basildon, England

    Hey @virginmedia you better offer me a better deal tomorrow or else I will be leaving. New customers are always treated better than existing. I know from experience with you guys that this never changes.

  • engineer59a Richard S (@engineer59a) reported from Corringham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I’m an existing customer and want to discuss changing my broadband package but don’t want to increase strain on your helpline. I have looked at your website but can’t upgrade/change my package on there. Can you please advise how I can discuss this with someone?

  • barstep Barrie J Stephenson (@barstep) reported

    Hi @virginmedia It seems there is no longer a way of reporting a fault to VM except through Twitter. BBC iPlayer is no longer working on my V360 box. My VM status shows No problems. But there is a problem. Can you tell what is being done about it? I’m not the only one affected.

  • londonhammer Chris Jennings (@londonhammer) reported

    @virginmedia The blue "arrows" light flashes constantly on my Superhub 1 and any device connecting wirelessly is told there is no internet access. I have tried all the online tools and am told "no issue".
