  • AndreaAndymac andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia any chance of speaking to a human regarding my television service

  • AllpointsTV AllpointsTV - Jamie (@AllpointsTV) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes , and it says no issues and then asks to check my equipment , this test says there is an issue with my equipment and I should check again in 24 hours so an engineer can be arranged . This has now been saying check back in an hour for the last two hours

  • Sarahlw_95 Sarah-Louise Wilkinson (@Sarahlw_95) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia is it normal practice for your employees to shout at customers down the phone and then hang up?

  • Arcamede Adam Cree (@Arcamede) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia are you having any issues in the North East at all? Our Internet has been awful for the past week!

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Waiting on the Medallia survey as the engineer was fab. Want to make sure he gets recognition for his good service

  • citamo Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ok. I clicked on a link which advises that the problem will hopefully by fixed by 8.40 tonight. Hardly satisfactory but at least it’s better than knowing nothing. Thanks for your help.

  • rachsclarke rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, do you have an ETA of when you’re issue will be resolved? Many of us could of purchased this game with a different streaming service if we knew you would be having the same issues with red button as per usual

  • citamo Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia @justwearmasks Instead of employing robots in your impossible to contact call centres and ripping of the public for your shareholders, set up a proper system of customer care which is accessible, helpful, considerate and capable of fixing customer problems quickly and competently.

  • wicks_michael Michael Wicks (@wicks_michael) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on with your website unable to access via my O2 or Vodafone mobile network. No problems with any other websites 😡

  • citamo Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia No estimated fix time. Just tells me there is a problem in my area which is affecting my service. I already know that.

  • rachsclarke rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm your sky sports red button will be working tonight for the Boro match as there is always problems with it, as if it’s not I’ll purchase the match with a different provider instead. Plenty of notice here for an 19:45 kick off

  • Loulameg Louise Donaldson (@Loulameg) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Having an absolute nightmare with @virginmedia on the phone since Thursday and still no further forward, the staff literally just tell you anything to get you off the phone. Anyone know how I make an official complaint? We’ve had no services for days now

  • Danielson_1991 Daniel Thompson (@Danielson_1991) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia I honestly can't deal with being passed around departments again. The problem is the WiFi is weak upstairs and I'm paying for a product thats not fit for service. You advertise intelligent pods to boost connections, all I want is to order one to resolve the issue.

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️🍺♈ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia It was working fine, then went off and came back but the hub was flashing green quite quickly. When it renegotiates it's usually slow and steady green flash but this was really quick

  • chlowilson__ Chloe (@chlowilson__) reported from Redcar, England

    Virgin media wifi is down again.. surprise, surprise

  • Christo72210007 Chris Christopher (@Christo72210007) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Aaarrrggghhh, red button not working on Sky Sports tonight any idea why?

  • cdbarnezy CDBarnezy (@cdbarnezy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @vonobox @stepickering @virginmedia It's my job… it's the same as anything other work from home job I've never had this problem before so I never though of needing a back up hotspot ect.

  • rachsclarke rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia You realise we’ve already missed 35 minutes of this 90 minute match? Are you going to be refunding customers due to your inconsistent service

  • AllpointsTV AllpointsTV - Jamie (@AllpointsTV) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia so trying to get an engineer to fix my 1gb internet after days of it running at sub 200mb and disconnecting at midnight it’s now been off for over a day . I just kept being told try again in one hour

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • andyshaw1986 Andrew Shaw (@andyshaw1986) reported

    @virginmedia Why when I requested email contact?Their email has said its resolved. It isn't.Ive had several broken promises, 2wks without service, and I have made it clear the resolution required - my package reduced to the service I am receiving and a refund for the fortnight without service

  • EwanMaule Ewan Maule (@EwanMaule) reported

    @virginmedia Nope. Getting through to that team is a nightmare and takes at least an hour. And when I do I get the same advice I always get, which doesn't work. I know what I need but I can't get through to anyone to tell them. Hence the complaints route, which also proved pointless.

  • coolhandfluke76 Steve (@coolhandfluke76) reported

    @virginmedia Then you should have stopped sending out the misleading emails. When will I get my phone call about my complaint, please? Or should I just ring up to cancel my 20 year long subscription?

  • rcnAzherd Azherd (@rcnAzherd) reported

    @virginmedia can u plz fix your internet an engineer is coming at my house if its not fixed by today its not going to end well

  • mattz0rpwnz Matthew Scully (@mattz0rpwnz) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I get that, but we already had both broadband and TV, so nothing needed to be activated? Your price guide says its charged if you add a new service, for which we have not.

  • Andrew_scfc Andrew Hunter (@Andrew_scfc) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. Yes I have. It says there is issues and just keeps asking me to check everything is plugged in/reboot which I've done many times.

  • Tink_Hayley HayleyH (@Tink_Hayley) reported

    @virginmedia No of course not and now my husband and I are stuck with no internet unable to work from home! You should be paying us for loss of earnings but given your customer service can’t even stretch to providing a dongle that’s not going to happen is it

  • johncoxonmedia John Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported

    @virginmedia Bill is £60 + p/m so looking to switch provider to find a more manageable bundle or negotiate a new bundle. How can I do this? Think already have basic TV package which is more than adequate - broadband cost of more relevance. Can you help?

  • Andrew_scfc Andrew Hunter (@Andrew_scfc) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I tried the hard factory reset this morning and unfortunately it just rebooted with the same issue/lights.

  • dennisonpacker Dennison Packer (@dennisonpacker) reported

    @virginmedia Hi thanks. The test says nothing is wrong, but if I may I'm pretty sure that only tests for service issues and faults not speeds being below guarantee. I want you guys to tell me what speed you're seeing your end - as I reckon I'm grossly overpaying. 1/2
