Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, EnglandIf anyone is interested in how much @virginmedia are overcharging for their dreadful service, I’ve just been offered a price match on cancellation to move to a different supplier. £27.50/month for a service for which they originally increased price to £105/month

Andrew Burdett (@andburd) reported from Maidenhead, EnglandHi @virginmedia, I’ve spent more than an hour on the phone to your advisors this morning and am getting nowhere. I have therefore now decided I would like to cancel my contract (I am within cooling-off period). Would I still be considered a ‘new’ customer if I find a new deal?
-
Peter ***** (@hoarp001) reported from Fleet, England@virginmedia my broadband is running at 10mbps (supposed to be 200). The app has done a "scan" and it says there is a network error and check back in 24 hours. Problem is, it's still slow three days later and there appears to be no more help on offer. Now what?
-
Jim Moore (@HamiltonNashHR) reported from Winnersh, EnglandSo @virginmedia is down again, and their 4G backup dongle has failed to take over AGAIN. In fact, it has never once failed over to 4G in any of the outages we’ve ever had. Why am I paying for this? 😡
-
Julian Hull (@JulianHull) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia having problems with internet in GU14. Will this be resolved soon

𝗟𝗲𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗻 🏳️🌈 🇺🇦 🍃💚🍃 (@LesleeRBarron) reported from Reading, EnglandJust had a call from Jerry at Virginmedia media wanting to help me mend my broadband issues (that I don’t have). After challenging him he told me to find the largest ***** & shove it up my arse!! Charming!! His No. 02038399963 #virginmedia #ScamAlert
-
Tom (@Tom38971529) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Well I would speak to a member of the team but always get the call cut short and I ask for a call back if the line goes dead. Twice yesterday ot happend Nd never got a phone call back
-
gonzo (@pears0) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia so, I've been trying for over 3 hours now to cancel my contract and absolutely no progress made so far!!! 3 hours. Surely this is a breach of ofcoms rules to make cancellation a reasonably quick and easy process!?
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!
-
Dawn Fabbricatti🇿🇦🇮🇹 (@DawnFabbricatti) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia You LITERALLY cannot be serious right now? Is this how you believe my issue will be solved? And yes, in the last 19 days I have rebooted twice.
-
Dan O'Sullivan (@dano_afc) reported from Frimley, England@virginmedia what is going on with your customer service today????? Completely unreachable either on phone, online chat or your abysmal whatsapp service!!! Talk to your customers!!!!!!!
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia And there you have the extent of VM customer care folks!
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!
-
Flo (@Flozephine) reported from Bracknell, England@virginmedia no broadband in RG12 for over an hour - can’t report on your service status page as it appears down? Any update gratefully received 🙏🏻
-
Pete (@gonnella) reported from Woodley, England@mattlintott @NetXL_dot_com Nice 👍🏻 got gig1 from @virginmedia but the upload is awful only 50mbit. Hope it gets increased to at least 100mbit soon.
-
Paul Collier (@Pablocollier) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Patchy. And the weekends enquiry regarding possibly upgrading... Non existent service.
-
Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.
-
CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@virginmedia My cancellation date is already set 11th Nov 2022, as I have to give 30 days notice. You lost my business yesterday after one of your CS decided to try and change my package to make it cheaper thinking that would sort problem, he wasn’t listening to complaint!
Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Ruth Payne (@ruthmpayne) reported@virginmedia the WiFi in Edgbaston / B16 has been down for 48 hours now. Tried finding out what’s happening but call centre was useless. When will this be sorted??? 48 hours is ridiculous
-
Jo Broughton (@BroughtonJo) reported@virginmedia No WiFi since Wednesday, apparently Engineers are ‘working hard to resolve the issue’ except having driven the entire area…no Engineers working anywhere? just want an honest answer to what’s going on and when it’s going to be fixed
-
GlenEagle. Better society now for disabled. (@BurnheadMax) reported@virginmedia The fact you've taken money when you shouldn't have and then wonder why your bill wasn't paid is called 'basic business'. If you compound your error by not allowing people to sign in, chances of resolution diminish. It's not rocket science.
-
Michael “Mecha” Modelsky (@MikeModelsky) reportedIs anyone else on @O2 finding that since the @virginmedia team up the service is horrendous, has taken my partner seven weeks to get their account unlocked, no it’s been unlocked. They can’t pay their bill due to an insecure website issue and too many redirects.
-
Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported@virginmedia Next time, do what you promise and you will. Just a shame that you’ve had 3 opportunities to do that with me as a customer and you’ve failed all three times.
-
Abby R (@abbyr6498) reported@virginmedia never been so pissed off about something so minor. But the way your customer service team are is ridiculous. Then to try and say I will arrange the charge to be waived as if that solves the issue. Nothing should be waived for starters as I didnt get what I purchased
-
⬣ fyfe79 ☘️ (@fyfe79) reported@VirginMediaNews Ireland's Minister for Justice: "Irish people are stupid". You're a disgrace O'Callaghan. The only people being manipulated are those who only get their news from RTE, Virgin Media etc.
-
OnTheMeter (@OnTheMeter) reported@misselledee @virginmedia Despite the content of your message, they answer you like this is the first contact. I’ve been with them from day one because I always seem to get a good deal. But god help you if you need customer services. In my experience, they tie with Vodafone as the worst in the world.
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported@virginmedia Estimated times were given on Thursday as 17th to fix. Friday 10th at 8am it said 18.00 on that day. 20 mins later it said 17th again. You need to sort out the messaging. I'm burning through my mobile data as a result of your self inflicted outage (it was an upgrade I was told

DonegalDúnedain 🇮🇪 (@DonegalDunedain) reported@moefitzpatrick I was expecting less support tbh, but the anomaly that is FFG 90 year old voters whose only source of info is Virgin Media and RTÉ will always upset perceived public opinion.
