  • angusgillan Angus Gillan (@angusgillan) reported from Seaforth, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Are you going to look into the issue accessing Sky Sports with a Virgin Media login via the web page? You can access via the mobile app. so maybe have a look your end instead of passing the buck

  • PHEFC83 PH (@PHEFC83) reported from Liverpool, England

    @TonyhEFC @mickwickjunior @virginmedia Phoned them, she messed around with settings and ****. Back to 100mb earlier. Still swerving them though. Been shite for about 2 weeks

  • GallowayBronwyn Bronwyn Galloway (@GallowayBronwyn) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia pay for BT box office live fight tonight and it comes up with W02 signal error instantly what's that about???

  • MisterDaz MisterDaz (@MisterDaz) reported from Ellesmere Port, England

    @SkyHelpTeam So the hundreds, or thousands, of people on Twitter who can’t sign in ALL need to contact @virginmedia? It’s not, just possibly, a tech issue you two need to sort out?

  • angusgillan Angus Gillan (@angusgillan) reported from Seaforth, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @SummersCJ But it works with your Virgin Media login via the mobile app so not a sign in issue? Loads of people have the same issue. @SkyHelpTeam maybe it's a fault your end?

  • Swell09 Swell ✌🏻 (Pronoun: She/Her) (@Swell09) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia He said there was a restricter on the cable so removed it. I’ve checked the hub and it says there are WiFi issues but no idea what to do to fix it? It’s dropped out a number of times today!

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Sorry no unable to get in touch, phoned the other week for an hour and they insisted I would not have any further problems

  • PHEFC83 PH (@PHEFC83) reported from Liverpool, England

    @TonyhEFC @virginmedia Can't be as bad as those speeds I'm getting!!

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Yes several times that’s what frustrates me, normally never have a problem with you guys personally I think I need a replacement TiVo box but I am no expert

  • Swell09 Swell ✌🏻 (Pronoun: She/Her) (@Swell09) reported from Seaforth, England

    Soooo @virginmedia broadband totally sketchy AGAIN!! Engineer came two weeks said solved issue.... still having major problems! Absolutely fed up!

  • ConnorTWilson Connor Wilson (@ConnorTWilson) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Virgin media WiFi is down for me, anyone else having issues in the North West?

  • angusgillan Angus Gillan (@angusgillan) reported from Seaforth, England

    @SkyHelpTeam @DaveC_BD Same, can't login to Sky Sports using my Virgin Media details on the website but can via the mobile app. Is the problem at your end?

  • Sarahsgracesmum Clare Marie Watson (@Sarahsgracesmum) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia been a customer for 10 years. Bills going up again and customer service less than helpful. Amazing deals for new customers though😡

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Yes that’s correct, last time he sent signal and said it is okay, I no it is not the tv or usb wire as both have been replaced

  • gms11uk Geoff (@gms11uk) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Stay disconnected should be the tag 1 hour waiting to get through on the phone to get a 24 hour fix to go back the next day to the same no connection They direct you to the web but it does not answer your question My recommendation dont trust a virgin experience no

  • liverpoolsusie1 Sue (@liverpoolsusie1) reported from Seaforth, England

    just cancelled my @virginmedia account after 30 plus years, If you're a new customer you can get the package I was on plus extra channels and other benefits for over £30 less a month, but existing customers can't, no loyalty to customers what so ever,

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Having on going problems with my TiVo box who can I contact to get it sorted, just had notification increase which is not a problem but expect 100 % working kits not the first time I have tried to get this sorted

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia I think the problem is that the time it is taking to get through or even an on line query, I thought speaking to you may help I do appreciate in the difficult times it can be a problem for us all

  • jordpinnington Jordan (@jordpinnington) reported from St Helens, England

    Virgin media is dog ****

  • walshy31 Paul Walsh (@walshy31) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Terrible today been down twice

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • alansutch Alan Sutch (@alansutch) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I've booked a technician for Thursday since the online service claims there's no problems. I hope they'll be able to fix the box outside, which I believe is the issue.

  • sparkyclarky77 Chris Clark (@sparkyclarky77) reported

    By the way, when I press the button to go through to the team that cancels my service, I don’t want to hear I’ve come through to the wrong team. “You’ve come through to sales” you might want to get your engineers on that. @virginmedia

  • rdcanyon rdcanyon (@rdcanyon) reported

    @virginmedia Don’t know, just says engineer booked on service checker page

  • stephstevens16 Steph Stevens (@stephstevens16) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, I’ve had broadband issues for 2 days, when is it going to be fixed?

  • postcardclaire Claire (@postcardclaire) reported

    @virginmedia So the *FREE* benefits of Volt, being both a Virgin broadband and O2 mobile customer… actually will cost more per month. 🫤

  • richardscowby1 Richard (@richardscowby1) reported

    @virginmedia Nobody can help on calls why cannot a complaint manager ring which is what I requested on the complaint form

  • nuttyno 𝙆𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙚 ♫ 🐾 (@nuttyno) reported

    @virginmedia I asked to be put through to someone who could process my cancellation. This was after being on hold for 40 minutes. Then I couldn’t really understand the man talking to me, I said I just wanted to cancel and he hung up.

  • WelshDragonParr Lesley Parr (@WelshDragonParr) reported

    @virginmedia I rang and was sent a text linking me to an online service so 'I don't have to speak to anybody'. This is the online service that didn't work. I want to speak to somebody! That's the point of calling a number.

  • rdcanyon rdcanyon (@rdcanyon) reported

    @virginmedia No estimated time fix and it says an engineer is booked

  • NickDyne Nick Dyne (@NickDyne) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, improvement in proactive monitoring and I had the call disconnect from your end twice. On both occasions it was when I started asking questions about your processes. I am very unimpressed. I will give you a 1* rating because not only is your network poor, so is your service
