    @virginmedia Yes, fix the navigation, have serious look at you chat app, as in the Name chat, is not what your application does, you using AI/ word recognition and you still list the reply as Agent. Having spent 10 min on your site. No thanks Virgin.

  • thegaffaa TF (@thegaffaa) reported from Ilford, England

    @justinw03816934 @virginmedia Held on for 33 minutes to be told they need to transfer me to another person. They are just leading their customers on. @virginmedia are awful...

  • joybrenda Brenda Franco (@joybrenda) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia , how can some One be removed from your mailing list, as they keep getting mail shots, but have no wish to be a virgin cus tomer, and find these letters irritating. Thanking you In anticipation of your help in this matter.

  • adrian_pennelli Mr P (@adrian_pennelli) reported from Hackney, England

    Ah well. So it will be good riddence to @EE at the end of my contract and hello to @virginmedia and @Virgin as they have been excellent dealing with my wife's issues unlike you lot. Dreadful service from @EE where the customer is taken for granted. #poorservice #poorcustomercare

  • jackreed08 Jack Reed (@jackreed08) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Not only do I have TV issues also my internet keeps dropping out! And yes re booting it does sort it out but rather annoying clambering behind the TV all the time 🤬

  • aubreydav1s Aubrey Davis (@aubreydav1s) reported from Ilford, England

    Season’s greetings to @virginmedia Broadband unusable for over a week now. The ETA to fix is 2nd Jan, when whoever’s job it is to fix my issue comes back from their break. I especially enjoyed the staff who refused to put me through to a manager even though I asked 4 times

  • YvonneM28 Yvonne M (@YvonneM28) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @MillwallDolbs2 @virginmedia @SkyFootball Agreed. It was absokutely awful. I ended up turning the sound off but the stuttering picture made me feel queezy. Not happy

  • memyself_n_boo Ria Hall (@memyself_n_boo) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    Parents have had ongoing issues with their internet from @virginmedia for last 6yrs! Had NO internet all over Christmas, new router received still not working. Told due to the size of their house. Now being told have to pay another 30 days for something that doesn’t work

  • letsbhavinu H-Town (@letsbhavinu) reported from Hackney, England

    I would like to let @virginmedia know that your service is the WORST its been. There are ALWAYS issues. Never any answers either, just excuses. I've had enough

  • HavocTechie Mr Havoc techie Voiding warranties since 1990 (@HavocTechie) reported from Loughton, England

    @virginmedia 241 High Rd, Loughton IG10 1AD. If your team are doing anything why is there never a update or any chasing on these cabinets. As a Virgin media customer if I phone your auto system it gives a ref and no way to check

  • dmxcrew dmxcrew (@dmxcrew) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Engineer noted it last month when he fixed telephone line. It has become worse overnight, probably hit by a car. Have reported via virgin media online complaint also.

  • SueGMBE Sue Gower MBE (@SueGMBE) reported from Crayford, England

    @NRCUK @virginmedia We got so fed up with virgin’s poor connection we’ve gone back to BT ...

  • mattwhiteski Matt White (@mattwhiteski) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks with no internet. Four phone calls (one hour each). Three engineer visits cancelled. I even tried calling you BEFORE today's engineer visit to try to stop you cancelling it but no luck. Please help. Nobody on the number you provide is able to do so.

  • davidgberry David Berry (@davidgberry) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    Round my parents, @virginmedia - sky red button not working.

  • Nico_Macdonald Nico Macdonald (@Nico_Macdonald) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. I'm way beyond reviewing your site for tech support (which is limited) and have cancelled my account. I asked Virgin Media to take some responsibility for 5 months of problems by not charging us for the 30 day cancellation period but they wouldn't even consider this.

  • YvonneM28 Yvonne M (@YvonneM28) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia Thanks but from what I read on social media yesterday, we were not the only ones using Virgin Media having problems and sure we do not all live in Welling! Will see what happens next time we try to watch #EFL footie on the red button. But thanks for the acknowledgement

  • thegaffaa TF (@thegaffaa) reported from Ilford, England

    Don't get @virginmedia broadband. Its pants and continually down. Been on hold now for 33 minutes... #terrible

  • rawle_dan Dan Rawle (@rawle_dan) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia It says no known issues...

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LoZeno Verified Jedi (@LoZeno) reported

    @Sparkle_71 @dhrutishah @virginmedia If their internet doesn't work, they can't use the Virgin media phone; and today's outage has affected also the emergency lines given to vulnerable customers. So the only way to call Virgin Media is to use non-Virgin Media phones.

  • rawsonjones Ben Rawson-Jones (@rawsonjones) reported

    @virginmedia You should have been aware many hours ago when your customers were. Are you hiking prices next month to pay for new yachts for fat cat CEOs rather than a better service to the public? Prices high enough already.

  • BTCrypto1 Just a number (@BTCrypto1) reported

    @virginmedia I really understand that sometimes issues can happen but what about when we have to negotiate our bills all the time, or every time our contract expires... if the culture is not changed I'm done with you, paying over £100 a month is not worth the stress

  • leg999 Lauren (@leg999) reported

    @virginmedia Were you waiting for the press to start reporting on the outage before communicating to your customers? Or waiting for it to be fixed? The outage didn’t disappoint me, the total silence from the company did.

  • Lynsey_nufc ⚽️⚪️⚫️Lynsey ⚫️⚪️⚽️ (@Lynsey_nufc) reported

    @virginmedia We’ve had poor service since November 2022 ! Engineer out last week confirms we have had multiple drop outs even one day with no service at all . System says you will get auto compensation no need to log . But yet no compensation just an increase in monthly bill #timetomove

  • CypherCookie Callum Dean (@CypherCookie) reported

    @vmbusiness yo maybe make a statement about the outage for your business customers?

  • Steven99990817 Steven (@Steven99990817) reported

    @dhrutishah @virginmedia If its a backup unit (BBU) your parents have had installed, they are only able to call emergency services from it if their broadband has gone down. They are fitted with a sim card incase of a situation such as this one.

  • scoobyfizz Darren Hughes (@scoobyfizz) reported

    @SenseMakesNone @virginmedia a telecoms company like VM would have maintenance work and network work going on overnight rather than daytime. There also would or should have been a priorty 1 escalation of this issue happening regardless of time of day. The would have known about it around 2am at least

  • Zait0bu Zai (@Zait0bu) reported

    @virginmedia Pretty embarrasing lack of communication and service literally the day before you bump up everyone's prices. You have a monopoly in my area or I would be gone in a heartbeat.

  • SarahFenn13 Sarah Fenn (@SarahFenn13) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having to hotspot my personal phone to work. I doubt you will compensate me for my personal data loss. Having your service pages down is unforgivable too
