    @virginmedia I've already done that. They've made promises but done nothing. I always have to chase you. Phone backs just don't happen. Nobody wants to help.

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service ... after months of issues still not being resolved our latest phone call after raising a complaint the customer service representative hung up on me! Getting to the point now where we will be leaving 😡

  • onearmedjohn
    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia No and there’s no point. You’ve had two years to fix this. I’m not paying any more and you can sue me. See you in court.

  • tolu_____
    Tolu (@tolu_____) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

  • Matty411
    Matt Frow (@Matty411) reported from Corringham, England

    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing

  • hungoverdrawn
    Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

  • rrrussboy
    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Actually that’s wrong, I received an email to advise that the complaint had been resolved and had to respond saying it hasn’t. What hope is there when you can’t even get a complaint right?

  • samanthadoe1
    Samantha Doe (@samanthadoe1) reported from Canvey Island, England

    Having real problems with our broadband dropping out regularly @virginmedia. Any known issues in the SS8 area?

  • yiddo71
    Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia Your missing the point my phone works now my complaint was about the fact it took 9 days to activate and Virgin changed the number

  • kellydyke08
    Kelly **** (@kellydyke08) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

  • rrrussboy
    Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.

  • Scott_Wic
    Scott Wickham (@Scott_Wic) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia My request to support was about the hub5 and some Wi-Fi extenders/boosters which I’m entitled to, they said that it was sorted and would be in the post and now only the hub5 has turned up!!! Does this mean I have to contact support again…….

  • moleyfozz
    paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia since you upgraded me for free to intelligent wifi, ive lost all signal upstairs arghhh. How can i switch back?

  • DanskiBoyWonder
    ∂αиѕкι (@DanskiBoyWonder) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia They replaced the box and it’s all working now,I do have one other query I have the Virgin go app but I don’t have any content available on it,is this something you can fix for me? There appears to be an issue with my account I have the ultimate ooomph package if that matters.

  • yiddo71
    Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia No as normal Virgin customer service go quiet until I am forced to ring them again and as for the bill no additional charges you just seem to have doubled the bill

  • lillyelizax
    SatansLittleGirl🔮 (@lillyelizax) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t internet down time the box has stopped working, they can’t get a new box out here till mid week, with a lot of people working from home you think you’d have next day delivery or something, bad enough we can’t have a engineer out to help

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • IFBMedia
    IFB Media (@IFBMedia) reported

    Damien Duff earlier tonight on Virgin Media reflecting on his time away from football and his decision to leave Shels… “I was running on anger, I stopped being Damien Duff” From being a Top Class Footballer, to an excellent coach and based off tonight’s display he’s also an exceptional pundit! Love him, or loathe him I don’t really care (and nor does he) speaking on any potential next move “I’ve fallen out with every club, every fanbase, I don’t know where would welcome me, but never say never” For me, we need to have him involved in Irish Football no matter what the capacity, he has so much to give and is Box Office in everything he does.. People talk about him going abroad, maybe back to Celtic where he learned his trade or even in the Championship with a club like Blackburn? There’s no doubt in my mind that he’s more than capable of doing a great job abroad too. But selfishly? I’d like him to stay in Irish Football in whatever capacity, because he has so much to give and I don’t think he’s motivated by money one bit. Look I’ve said it before (half jokingly) I’d love to see him do a tour of Irish Football of sorts whether that be the First Division, Premier, the Women’s National League or even Amateur Football?? I understand why it’s unlikely such is his profile but if I think anyone were to do it the man would be Duffer!

    @virginmedia Is there a reason why My TV and Internet has been down since 11Am this morning??

  • redjohnno1
    Eye of the the storm (@redjohnno1) reported

    @virginmedia 15years a customer, tried to renew 3 times. 3 times you did it wrong, given up and moved to sky. Your customer service is absolutely shocking and zero customer loyalty

  • oliverjames77
    Shaun (@oliverjames77) reported

    @virginmedia good morning I hope you can help I have received a letter stating I owe £90 For equipment I returned, I Was told to return box and remote, can someone explain what is needed as I cancelled my contract and thought all was concluded … thanks

  • MrAlanGreen

    Anyone else having multiple outages with @virginmedia fibre broadband L? Started last Friday, back up the weekend and down again today?

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @virginmedia @HawtinStewart Reported an issue 2 months ago and only just received a response. The advice given was unhelpful, careless, and frankly unprofessional. The issue is still ongoing with Now being told it could take another 28 days for a follow-up. Completely unacceptable and a waste of time.

  • Miss_JRO85
    Jenny Roberts (@Miss_JRO85) reported

    @virginmedia This would have been useful to know but I wasn’t told this by any of the 4 agents I spoke to. An engineer called me to explain he had fixed the issue - a rusty screw stopping the connection for 8 houses. He was super helpful. Shame no one on the phone could be clear and helpful.

  • DjmarkieT
    mancs boi (@DjmarkieT) reported

    @virginmedia your service is a joke, internet down since Friday at 2pm update to say fixed midnight, then 4pm yesterday, then updated to 19th at 0:04 and now 20th at 16:04 that means I cant work tomorrow YOUR A JOKE time to LEAVE!

  • IrvineSparrow
    Irvine sparrow (@IrvineSparrow) reported

    @virginmedia so I’m trying to cancel my contract and I’m speaking to Soyinka Sheffield but their English is so bad I can hardly understand them. Apparently she is the only person that can deal with me. Thank god I’m leaving ( well I hope I am ) !!
