    @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Dear Virgin Media, unlawful pretending fraudulent callers keep ringing us about a nonsense router signal issue and hacked IP network? Can you please implement preventative measures to protect vulnerable community members living in the UK. Thx

  • Shirley55474252 Shirley Ashby (@Shirley55474252) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Limited TV service here Area code 31 in Northampton. Not happy!!Hope you don’t expect full payment on next bill!!!

  • Gturv GTT (@Gturv) reported from Bedford, England

    In a constantly changing world we need something to rely on. @virginmedia can guarantee that you will be kept on hold long enough to see if you die waiting for help. #crapcustomerserviceasusual

  • swimmingsu Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England

    So frustrated with @virginmedia spend over an hour on hold only to be cut off by their customer service rep #whatcustomerservice #frustrated #zerocustomerservice

  • Gordonsalive200 Stuart Paterson (@Gordonsalive200) reported from Bedford, England

    Are there any other UK @skytv customers having trouble with Sky Q boxes over a #virginmedia broadband connection?

  • charleshill23 Charlie (@charleshill23) reported from Desborough, England

    @virginmedia hi, I am utterly disgusted with the way I have been spoken to on the phone when I called to talk about an account. I then had a call back and was spoke to like a deprived human being. I want to leave your service as your customer service skills are an abomination.

  • Tech_Analyst_UK Rob Anderson #TipToeingOutOfHibernation (@Tech_Analyst_UK) reported from Bedford, England

    2nd day running that @virginmedia services have dropped out. Unacceptable with so many working from home. Chatbot just redirects to service status #fail

  • NPaladina Nancy Paladina (@NPaladina) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Had to have a really tough call this evening to query a bill sent to my deceased father’s address. I want to highlight the exceptional customer service I received from Franco (no idea how else to identify him), but he was truly amazing and did everything he could 👏🏼

  • Bdayboom Benji (@Bdayboom) reported from Finedon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the response but can't see any reference to subtitles not working.?

  • Helenfaerieart Helenfaerieart (@Helenfaerieart) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia random phone call from your tech support, issues with my router apparently, but, didn't know my name, address or account number...I guess this is phishing and fake?

  • Tech_Analyst_UK Rob Anderson #TipToeingOutOfHibernation (@Tech_Analyst_UK) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia I'm well aware of the service status page, but when it just gives a generic 'we know there's a problem and hope to get it fixed by 3pm' it's not very helpful. But seemingly the chatbot is even less so. Just lost connection for the 3rd time in 28 hours. #Anyone4Starlink?

  • stephylouise Steph (@stephylouise) reported from Desborough, England

    @virginmedia why is it impossible to get to speak to an actual human being? We've been trying to get through to cancel our landline for months and get nowhere. Led round in circles until eventually the call cuts off. Can anyone help?

  • stephylouise Steph (@stephylouise) reported from Desborough, England

    @virginmedia Would we be able to write to that address if we only wanted to cancel our landline? We currently have a TV package which we want to keep.

  • erikalesleyneal erika lesley neale (@erikalesleyneal) reported from Rothwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi I was wanting to cancel my order because I have changed my mind

  • factory_sausage 🎃🦇🖤Spooky Sausage Factory🖤🦇🎃 (@factory_sausage) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    Hi @virginmedia is 02038271376 one of your numbers? Just had a call trying to get me to install an app called Quick Support. She seemed miffed when I wouldn't do it.

  • swimmingsu Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England

    @virginmedia 1/2 been on the phone for over an hour on hold waiting for customer service - finally get through and the customer service rep cuts me off before I even say what I want...

  • ChantelleEJ Chantelle (@ChantelleEJ) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. It came back on yesterday AM but was out since Thurs PM. It was always flashing green and early Sat after running a test it said it was a network issue. I was luckily not working at home on Fri. It was difficult to find out if it was me or the network for a long time.

  • ChantelleEJ Chantelle (@ChantelleEJ) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia Thanks KT. Unfortunately it’s still not working and I have tried the online service checker and the number, it says no faults. Is the internet problem linked to the on demand problem? I’ve been out at work for 12 hours so it’s been like this all day :(

  • russsanders2 russ sanders (@russsanders2) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia at what point do we start seeing reduction on the monthly bill. Paying for a service that is failing for an entire day

  • Bdayboom Benji (@Bdayboom) reported from Finedon, England

    @channel5_tv not sure if it's a @virginmedia issue or yours but subtitles aren't working on channel 5 as I type this motorway cops

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mikecom17 Linda (@mikecom17) reported

    @virginmedia Sort this **** out because I’m not paying £45 a month to get wound up like this every day. How hard is it to have a broadband service that actually works?

  • CraigMurrayScot Craig Murray (@CraigMurrayScot) reported

    @virginmedia Well how do I get a reference number? Your website doesn't offer a reference number. And I'm not calling because you make me wait for an hour and then hang up.

  • dotnetkhan Samad Khan (@dotnetkhan) reported

    @virginmedia, if it's not your broadband playing up, it's your mobile network. Please fix your issues once and for all. I've spent more time speaking to you than to my wife. And I'm working from home!

  • LoubinWally Dual-Flaggin' Bananas #FBPE (@LoubinWally) reported

    Hey @richardbranson 👋 The customer service at @virginmedia is atrocious! Called to amend my package as it is coming to an end... got cut off the first time and the second time was asked for my mobile number to receive a call back .... which didn't happen.. 🤨 #NotGoodEnough

  • tracey_sparke Tracey Anne Keenan (@tracey_sparke) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the apology but this charge should not be applied in the first place. I can't remember virgin helping me move! I am sure if I was a new customer who had just moved into a new house you would not have applied it. Regards Tracey

  • noeth_wycombe Leeroy Brown (@noeth_wycombe) reported

    @virginmedia As I say, I’ve been told by VM construction team, Avonline contractors and VM engineers that the fibre cable has been damaged... but no appointment ever gets booked, that’s what I need. I fail to see how other customers are going to be able to resolve that one?

  • RiddlesLaca ola oladapo (@RiddlesLaca) reported

    @virginmedia Well you do whatever you want to do. I am calling virgin. Check my account 754187001. Until you sort the service out, no more payment.

  • dav1dkenworthy David (@dav1dkenworthy) reported

    @virginmedia So yr not able to help other than pointing me to a website??

  • DJ_Unreal DJ Unreal (@DJ_Unreal) reported

    @virginmedia Called up again today as it wasn't fixed yesterday as promised. Date's been pushed out again. Again no notification until I called and asked. This needs sorting out! Did get an upgrade to M500 and bill reduction as part of it, but that's no use if the upstream still doesn't work!

  • noeth_wycombe Leeroy Brown (@noeth_wycombe) reported

    @virginmedia I predicted as much. Problem being that Twitter is the only sensible communication I’ve had with Virgin Media since joining in February! My speed via Ethernet fluctuates from a couple of mb to a top speed of about 40mbps. I’ve been told the fibre is damaged but no-one comes!
