    Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

  • TheG0000ner Gooner (@TheG0000ner) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Is there something wrong with @virginmedia at the moment. Got a very very crap speed of less than 1mbs #virginmedia #virginmobile in the S40 area. Can't log into my account either? 🤬 This is happening far too often for £69 a month!!!

  • peterboardman64 Peter Boardman (@peterboardman64) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia no internet service in Chesterfield S40? What’s the problem?

  • cranworth791 Sam Millington (@cranworth791) reported from Rawmarsh, England

    @virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband

  • Ray_Lennox Tom Clark (@Ray_Lennox) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with WiFi in Sheffield. It’s been awful for weeks

  • John_murphy1 John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I had Virgin broadband installed yesterday but need a landline . Unable to get through to customer services. Should have been set up with the broadband . Engineer said I was miss sold the standalone package . Now I’m without a phone.

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.

  • Sheffield_Boy Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back

  • goonie2008 Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  • whittickdiver paul whittick (@whittickdiver) reported from Sprotbrough, England

    @virginmedia after five years of custom you would rather me terminate my contract that provide me with the new router that you promised me as part of my new deal! Diabolical service!

  • parky1021 simon parkinson (@parky1021) reported from Barnsley, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 82ladyK Kirsty Richards (@82ladyK) reported

    @virginmedia They refuse to tell me anything as my virgin media account has been disabled and I can’t check my password/ security answers. Half the calls they say I’ve passed, with same info, other calls say I’ve not passed. It’s infuriating. They just hang up on me. Probably 4 hours on calls

  • 82ladyK Kirsty Richards (@82ladyK) reported

    @virginmedia … can’t log into my online account. It’s as though everything is deactivated. Your standard terms don’t help. Someone needs to go into my account and reverse the error so services can resume. I am a key worker WFH and need my services without delay. Something is amiss 😡

  • NicolaWilloug10 Nicola Willoughby (@NicolaWilloug10) reported

    @virginmedia When I have read on forum some other customers with this issue needed a replacement box

  • CopeNLuu Cope (@CopeNLuu) reported

    @virginmedia we have been in contact with them, and they are sending an engineer tomorrow, but we got a text this morning saying it was fixed, and it's definitely not. it doesn't say that there is an outage on the service check in my area

  • Dancmccauley Dan Mac (@Dancmccauley) reported

    @virginmedia internet has been down all day. What’s going on?

  • Laura92492442 Laura (@Laura92492442) reported

    @virginmedia The link is not working correctly. It does not allow me to tap screen and enter my name.

  • jmzcantwell Becky (@jmzcantwell) reported

    @virginmedia no because it soon enough sorts itself. if we are having issues we look it up.

  • mrcritchy Neil Critch (@mrcritchy) reported from Chapel-en-le-Frith, England

    @ollyknights @virginmedia If you need any further help Olly DM me NP at all. I only hope they haven’t been calling Long Distance

  • thegrumpygirl thegrumpygirl 🏳️‍🌈🧜🏻‍♀️ she/her/call me Sir (@thegrumpygirl) reported

    Me: I'm going to do my taxes today. I specifically set the day aside for this. Virgin Media: Nuh uh you're not. We're going to make sure the internet keeps cutting out, and our ETA for fixing the problem in your area is 9 pm btw. WHY DO I PAY THEM SO MUCH MONEY WHYYYY

  • rwilliams1947 Richard Williams (@rwilliams1947) reported

    @virginmedia It’s very hard to do these tests when the broadband is either cripplingly slow or — as now — isn’t functioning AT ALL. Maybe you could send a @virginmedia person round to fix it?
