  • DelanceyUK MelloFox (@DelanceyUK) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia I have one phone.. My husband has one phone.. neither of them can receive a call or make a call from most parts of the house. Calls drop if we move away from doors or front window upstairs. I'll try text support.

  • GypsyEilid Kate/Lin (@GypsyEilid) reported from Irthlingborough, England

    @virginmedia I still have 0 signal and i have rung the number for the customer services and we tried all the restart and trouble shooting and nothing happened they seemed to agree with me with the idea my SIM has been hacked and are sending a new one out.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • A_Johnstone Jonno (@A_Johnstone) reported

    @virginmedia Well your operators keep hanging up on me and passing me on to other deptartments then after hours they hang up. It's so frustrating when they tell you there is no fault but it's been off for 7 days+ Working from home with no internet means I am essentially unemployed.

  • MrJack_ONeill Jack O'Neill (@MrJack_ONeill) reported

    @virginmedia It has been on and off for the past three days now and has just gone off again now. It’s so temperamental, really disappointing service

  • A_Johnstone Jonno (@A_Johnstone) reported

    @virginmedia Only 85 times, done everything my side. All cables been checked numerous times. Either the Hub 3.0 is broken or their is a fault on the line. But I can't get an engineer out as the people I speak to can't do that and want to transfer me to someone else, they hang up though.

  • BlueRoseCode Blue Rose Code (@BlueRoseCode) reported

    .@virginmedia On hold for one and a half hours and now you cut me off. Waiting since noon for a broadband activation despite a text from you telling me my service had been activated. Awful customer experience. Anyone else had similar?

  • Phtevenrobert Phtevenrobert (@Phtevenrobert) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried everything I could possible try, by myself AND with someone on the phone, and my speed is getting worse. I can't do anything I need to do to get by without internet. Service Status on the website is just a picture, I'm sure of it, it only ever says 'No known problems'

  • mattybonney matty (@mattybonney) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I've been asked to go the forum before of which I have, myself and my neighbours have been told of the issue by the engineers who came down. Which is due to the Comms boxes outside, but we need to be told exactly when this is going to be resolved

  • EmilyDrabs Emily Drabble (@EmilyDrabs) reported from Camberwell, England

    God put me out of my misery - holding on the phone to @virginmedia for more than four hours! Spoken to many people who put me through to other people but no one helps me. It’s the same 2 crap songs. At least get a playlist 😢😢😢

  • NicolaSimpson78 Nicola Simpson (@NicolaSimpson78) reported

    @virginmedia having issues again with slow internet speeds and completely losing internet connection... this is happening almost every day now, I can't get through on the phone and can't get a response on live chat....

  • _Bukss B (@_Bukss) reported

    @virginmedia are ***************. Flagging up my account as having ‘disconnected debt’ despite never missing a payment or making any late payments

  • Phtevenrobert Phtevenrobert (@Phtevenrobert) reported

    @A_Johnstone @virginmedia @richardbranson Hung up again!? This is an absolute scam. We gotta let people know about this, I'm gonna get sending some messages to some people.. this isn't acceptable. It's theft. You pay, they don't provide the service.. what if that was the other way around and we didn't pay? It'd be court.
