  • JurassicGarden Char (@JurassicGarden) reported from Didcot, England

    The worst part of Lockdown wasn't the loneliness, the boredom or the agitation. It was seeing ******* Birdseye, McCain's and Virgin Media shoving happy family lockdown vibes down your throat to advertise themselves.

  • AmyJ1996 amy james. (@AmyJ1996) reported from Farnborough, England

    Right who has virgin media tv someone help us

  • StuRobsonFrisby Stuart Robson-Frisby (Ivanti) (@StuRobsonFrisby) reported from Yateley, England

    @virginmedia No broadband in GU46 7RR... is this part of the outage as have seen others in the area with issues but your website says no issues reported?

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called, but that provided no help. I was told I’d get a callback from a team closer to the issue in 24 hours - which has since passed. Honestly, not a good start and I’ve not got service yet!

  • jayp171 jayesh Patel (@jayp171) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem in the Maidenhead area?

  • rockyrobin1982 Robin Conway (@rockyrobin1982) reported from Bracknell, England

    Hey @itv and @virginmedia. Could you please highlight the #WeMakeEvents campaign along with your footage and advertising of V festival coverage? As without support there won’t be another one to broadcast. #lightinred

  • dan_brooke Dan Brooke (@dan_brooke) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia had reached a new level of incompetence in terms of customer ‘service’. 2 months since signed up and still not installed with multiple last minute ***** ups... 🙄

  • timmorgan Tim Morgan (@timmorgan) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what's the best department to get My Virgin Media support? I am a customer and it won't let me register an account using my email address although my bill is sent to the same email.

  • LisaMarieHeenan Lisa-Marie Cuthbertson (@LisaMarieHeenan) reported from Reading, England

    Hi @virginmedia can you please check service RG31 as all services are down, the online check confirms the status is down but only option is book an engineer for Tuesday, does that mean I can expect no TV or Internet until then?

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia All fine now - but TBH we're probably going to cancel. Our contract is up its going up from £70 to £85/month. To sign a new deal is a £82. Your offer to new customers is £45. I can't be bothered with this hassle every few months so am looking at sky. Thanks for checking though 👍

  • jayp171 jayesh Patel (@jayp171) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with WiFi in the Maidenhead area?

  • 5aman1_m Munindra Samani (@5aman1_m) reported from Wokingham, England

    Yet again issues with virgin broadband. On the phone for over 25 mins - ridiculous #virginmedia #connectivity

  • GamerJamesFM GamerJamesFM (@GamerJamesFM) reported from Bracknell, England

    @virginmedia hi, I am trying to access my router settings page but it isn't loading. Any idea what the issue is??

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I have has my your chat open for 24 hours, sent a text message 36 hours ago and no response to either. As a new customer, with a query, this is not a good start.

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia The only detail I’ve had is as follows and it’s hardly detailed. Please can someone tell me what is the issue and where, with timescales. “Hi, it's Virgin Media here. The installation is kept on hold due to construction issue.”

  • MaxwellPerris Maxwell Perris (@MaxwellPerris) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia That you don't have enough staff to meet customer demand, apparently you don't have a complaints team and a £20 credit should solve all our problems. We never had this issue when we were with @SkyBroadband

  • rohaaminho Najm Khan (@rohaaminho) reported from Farnborough, England

    Had the worst internet day ever. Never use Utility Warehouse or whoever own the line around here which is @virginmedia

  • HaiderAlRekabi Haider Al-Rekabi (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia stop calling me and try to sell me something i already have with you. I think your trying too hard. I already have the full package for tv that i don't use, highest available Broadband. never use the landline and 4 Sim accounts. and still. You want to zell me more!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • UnkleBuba Simon H (@UnkleBuba) reported

    @virginmedia All I get of your phone system is either. No faults detected or were working hard to fix it..? surely it doesn't take 3 days?? And still no updates B31 postcode

  • CoatesKate Kate Coates (@CoatesKate) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is appalling. Trying to sort out my 64 year old father’s internet (despite it being your fault it’s not working) and your level of helpfulness resembles that of a chocolate teapot.

  • Toshniwal Tosh (@Toshniwal) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, it says "no known issues" but clearly there is an issue in the area

  • StaiteAnt Ant Staite (@StaiteAnt) reported

    @stevio36 @LDesesperes @virginmedia I actually spoke with the UK office in the end, my main issue was them putting my bill after only a couple of months after negotiating a new price. They wouldn't even drop the £3 rise.

  • melodiouscode melodiouscode (@melodiouscode) reported

    All sorted with a smile; and he entertained the dog for a few minutes whilst we waited for it to all reboot. Goes to show that when someone in the know tells customer support that it is a SNR issue (evidenced by the hubs logs) they should just listen; shouldn't they @virginmedia

  • karenmp149 Karen Power (@karenmp149) reported

    @virginmedia We did ring them, spoke to another condescending 'customer service advisor'. He wasn't helpful. We've now today received a letter asking us to return equipment that we don't have. It feels like @virginmedia are deliberately trying to cause us stress!

  • LeeThompson05 Lee Thompson (@LeeThompson05) reported

    @chanlfc @LDesesperes @virginmedia I've been with Virgin for 7 years, only had one outage in that time and it was only for couple of hours.

  • Toshniwal Tosh (@Toshniwal) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it's not my router. There seems to be a service issue in the area

  • Turkey_Hamper martyn hamper 💙 (@Turkey_Hamper) reported

    @LDesesperes @virginmedia Did they finally agree to let you cancel and go to another supplier?

  • PaulineR59 Pauline Richards (@PaulineR59) reported from Southampton, England

    @LDesesperes @virginmedia Lucky you. Loyal customer for over 20 years......nothing for loyalty
