Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SaiFullahSoul Sai (@SaiFullahSoul) reported

    Nightmare day. EE’s service went down in my area. Unable to work whilst waiting for my fibre to be installed. Virgin Media installation incomplete due to a faulty cable. Had to call to arrange a site survey after an initial denial of service. Need more big players in telecoms.

  • OoosuJ Josh Stevenson (@OoosuJ) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to change my direct debit details online but I can't find where to do it. can you help me?

  • AdzGoooner Adam Carrington (@AdzGoooner) reported

    @virginmedia Yes tried everything. Followed all protocols. But it states theres an issue in my area. Then says there isnt but still have issues 3 days later.

  • Briana8007 Briana (@Briana8007) reported

    @Anthondo1970 @virginmedia I had same issue recently until i came across will_tech02 on Instagram. He got my account back. You should contact him for help, he’ll definitely help you.

  • Facium Facium (@Facium) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, I didn't think to try these things before going public... I've literally done all of these things, factory reset my hub, called two different support lines and been told all services are good. None of it is working. Please dm me.

  • computa_mike Mike Hingley (@computa_mike) reported

    @virginmedia @tonyblews Don't want to shoot holes in your customer service there @virginmedia - but what would a web chat accomplish if you don't have access to accounts? I guess when you say us - you really mean some other department that does have access to accounts?

  • RayDaleyWriter Ray Daley (@RayDaleyWriter) reported

    Heads-up to @Virginmedia customers with V6 box. If you get a C230 error, reboot the wifi. Odds are, like mine, 5G had taken a nose dive. All sorted after a reset. PS. A V6 box shouldn't be getting TIVO errors. Fix that, Virginmedia.

  • BuddLuke Luke Budd (@BuddLuke) reported

    @StephenVanbeck @virginmedia Mines cut off. I’ve reset the router it’s the most inconsistent piece of **** you can buy. Only work if you pay however much extra a month for boosters and even then it’s completely overpriced. Utter bullshit. As soon as the install the new cables in my area I’m cancelling

  • shred_regimen Tabakskollegium (@shred_regimen) reported

    The difference becomes stark from the virgin media consoomer and the chad journo loather. They will goosestep together down the road to the Konzentrationslager while you WTF. And they’ll be totally unaware of how far gone they’ve become

  • Stacey1882 #Manners1973 (@Stacey1882) reported

    @virginmedia your broadband service in RH11 has been absolute pants the last few weeks. 🤬
