    @virginmedia So all the phone calls we made over this means nothing, surely it will be on record either way and someone should see theres a problem, sounds like we been pasted between another pillar and post.

    @virginmedia I did this multiple times this morning, and tried my Sim in another phone. It looks like I'm starting to get constant 4g now *fingers crossed* but that was 8hours of intermittent service.

    @si1774 @DanRob86 @virginmedia No mate it's owned by Liberty Global which is why it goes up every year and the service gets worse. Mind you he takes a cut for using his name.

    @virginmedia shocking service from you, just been on the phone for over 50 mins trying to sort my shocking internet speed only to be cut off & no call back. Told nothing they can do and your checks show everything is fine. What am I paying £79 for when I’m not getting the service

    @Banksie23Robert Yep, that's was the only response I got, through Twitter! The rest of virgin media comms are down, or waiting queue for 45min plus only to be told "we are aware and our engineers are working on it".

    @virginmedia in the past few months in the L23 area your service has been nothing short of shocking…. As someone working from home & needing WiFi to work I’ve recently decided to leave, unfortunately my replacement service can’t be installed in May though. What went wrong?

  • andy_stones
    andy stones (@andy_stones) reported from Scunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Don’t know but a lot of people aren’t very happy with the service, drops out more than it’s in service, maybe a UPD issue on virgins system

    Great so my Virgin Media wifi is down and now I can’t get Vodafone 4G on my phone.

    Darren Barton (@Darren_Barton19) reported from Crosby, England

    @virginmedia I only have broadband. Can't get a signal on mobile. I am just fed up of the constant price rises £3.50 each year, we have been with you since it was NTL never had another internet provider, feel that loyal customers are taken for a ride.

  • paulscunny
    Paul wilson (@paulscunny) reported from Scunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia still having wifi problems, months later still being fobbed off, now a problem in my area but your own website says it ok. How much longer will it take to get sorted.

    @virginmedia My friends experiencing on and off issues with patchy service, poor reliability and ever increasing telecom bills that they are seriously considering cancelling (if they can) and going elsewhere, do better virgin, although my isp is poor as well sometimes and will consider swap

  • Prodgey
    Lyn Prodger (she/her) (@Prodgey) reported

    @virginmedia Have sent countless direct messages. No response of resolution. Once again promised a call this morning that didn’t materialise so I had to call you and you’ve pushed the fix date back yet again.

  • Prettyflyguy77
    Prettyflyguy (@Prettyflyguy77) reported

    @KaiGWatson Have a look at Cityfibre providers if your area has it. You'll get Virgin media speeds but with a much better reliable service.

  • tariqm786

    @virginmedia Five weeks with no broadband or TV and still no proper fix. The 4 week long area outage is supposedly resolved but I’ve still got issues!!Can you please tell me what is going on?

    🚨 UK Regulator Fines Virgin Media £28 Million ($37.4M) Ofcom has slapped Virgin Media with a £28 million fine for systematically preventing customers from cancelling contracts over nearly three years (Jan 2022 – mid-Sept 2024). Key Findings: - Deliberate call-dropping tactics - Excessive and unnecessary call transfers - Repeatedly putting customers on hold for no reason Ofcom described the failings as systemic and repeated. Background: Virgin Media is a joint venture between Spain’s Telefónica and Liberty Global. This is the second major fine for Virgin Media recently (previously fined £23.8M in December for issues with telecare customers during landline migration). Impact: Another hit to Virgin Media’s reputation in the UK broadband/mobile market.

    @kcpollock They do the very same thing in Ireland. Except the music makes you irate. They expect you to silently acquiesce to their recording. So when I have to call them, I record them but do not tell them I’m recording the call. You can be left waiting for 1 hour. They will then raise the phones hand piece from the cradle and you have to go thru’ the entire press 1 if you’d like us to speak in your left ear, press 2 if you’d like us to speak in your right ear, press three if you’d like us to speak softly, press 4 if you’d like us to speak in both ears. They are always busy, even in little tiny Ireland. I cancelled Virgin media because the hung up on me three times. I told them that this is the very last time you’ll ever hang up on me. And I cancelled my subscription.
