  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia And another issue. Must be that time of the year when I seem to have numerous problems in a short time span. Now it’s saying incorrect password when trying to join the WiFi network (password hasn’t changed), or it’ll say there’s a connection problem to internet and a red button.

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

    came home to a letter today stating your increasing my bill 3.00 per month from September! What's happened to loyal customer discounts utter joke! #Nothappycustomer @virginmedia

  • Lara__1302 LaraB (@Lara__1302) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t but now that I have a link I will try that. Fingers crossed they will be able to resolve the issue

  • northernmicks Kenneth Owen (@northernmicks) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia that's the problem businesses assume customers are happy to spend their lives phoning them and be happy wasting hours and hours

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So service resumed around 3pm with an email confirming it. In the last 5/10 mins the wireless connection keeps disappearing off. It’ll return for a second or two, then drop again. Unsurprisingly your status checker says there isn’t an issue despite there clearly being one.

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia not on all channels, I’ve turned the box off and very much doubt I’ll be turning it back on with such a poor service lately

  • Lara__1302 LaraB (@Lara__1302) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia It’s for mine and my daughters mobile. Been going on now for 2 days. Can’t make or receive calls. Been into Virgin store today and they gave me a new sim. But couldn’t help with checking to see if there were issues in my area.

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Still on the phone. Just found out the eng that was supposed to come today to fixed the frayed cables outside was a no show. Also all my smart lights have stopped working meaning the local network (not broadband) has gone down. Finally you’ve agreed to issue a deadlock letter.

  • wlasinclair Wendy Sinclair RN (@wlasinclair) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve tried a few times but I keep getting cut off when they don’t know how to deal with the query. I’ll keep trying and maybe someone will be able help!! Thank you 🙏

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia Hello I spoke to retentions yesterday and my contract is going down to 78.00 something but havent had an email from you with the new details im not having any luck with online chat noone responded

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Pretty ironic when the @virginmedia Service Status page doesn’t work.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So it looks like the router resetting was the start of a bigger issue. Router appears to be having issues again. Your diag service thinks the router is switched off but it certainly isn’t.

  • mdrvideo Mike Roberts (@mdrvideo) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    Cant access my business website @virginmedia keep hanging up worst customer service ever #virginbroadband #useless

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin came home to a letter today stating your increasing my bill 3.00 per month from September! What's happened to loyal customer discounts utter joke! #Nothappycustomer

  • northernmicks Kenneth Owen (@northernmicks) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia so much easier to cancel direct debit without having to bother with a call

  • northernmicks Kenneth Owen (@northernmicks) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia i telephoned because i wanted to reduce my services, the first call offered reduction to 47.95, never happened, second call refused to call me, third call apologies for lack of action confirmed reduction and a credit again nothing happened

  • BrightLitegames BrightLightGames (@BrightLitegames) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down AGAIN, Queue the automated twitter response. Time to find a new provider I think!

  • thestuchy13 Damon (@thestuchy13) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @virginmedia getting beyond a joke this no internet again in WN5 area after only getting it back working after 3 days last week you had better refund some of my money back and also data charge for my family's mobile network not good enough

  • walshy31 Paul Walsh (@walshy31) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia as an existing customer disgusted by experience my wife had ordering a new phone! Told delivered Thursday, worked from home, then advised by @YodelOnline it would be next Tuesday! Virgin day not down to them then receives a bill for end of the month #CustomerService

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Babyootang Goat (@Babyootang) reported

    @virginmedia You are also repeating the same message to me- just as the pre-install team do! I cannot believe that @virginmedia treat customers like this! Absolutely gobsmacked!

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported

    @virginmedia We called back and they said it there are issues and it will be sorted within 48 hours. This did not happen again.

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported

    @virginmedia We called again today and they said you need to start a new contract and this can take up to a week! Then you need to cancel it again

  • croxsaintt 🥐 (@croxsaintt) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, the channels on the tv are not working and, and the WiFi keeps disconnecting. I have run the tests via the app and checked all the wire connections and everything seems to be okay. But the WiFi still isn’t working.

  • Babyootang Goat (@Babyootang) reported

    @virginmedia No! They lied and said I phoned and cancelled the installation - obviously I did not and I asked for a recording of the alleged phone call which still has not materialised! Engineer came out 22nd March and said no problem to install at property but still no installation!

  • croxsaintt 🥐 (@croxsaintt) reported

    @virginmedia It really is frustrating as I’m not able to do anything, and no I haven’t had the chance to speak to any agents. I’m paying for a service which isn’t even working!!

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported

    @virginmedia We called back and they said they don’t know what the issue is and they don’t know when it will be resolved!

  • Albertz2020 Albertz (@Albertz2020) reported

    @virginmedia No i did not..I dont have time to phone, I work all day, hence the use of "chat",,,I am an existing customer too, I'll go to 3 or o2

  • Babyootang Goat (@Babyootang) reported

    @virginmedia They keep telling me that the engineer is coming out today - every day the same lie! Why can’t someone sensible just help? You can’t imagine how frustrating this is after 3 weeks! I had pre- booked this installation for 19th March!

  • ihateblades Tim Potter (@ihateblades) reported

    @virginmedia After hours of trying to speak to someone I got through. I would suggest anyone thinking of joining Virgin, think twice, I have had bad service in the past, but nothing as bad as this. Just constantly blame the customer and take nothing on board.
