  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    This is unacceptable @virginmedia your services especially the customer services despite endless promises still not done #ShabbyServices

  • TheSugg David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia hiya, another night of constant router/connection restarts and problems. Multiple engineer visits, senior engineer visits, call centre calls, new router and £160+ a month down the drain. I don’t want to switch provider but you’re not leaving me much option

  • kelly_bingham2 Kelly Bingham (@kelly_bingham2) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia you are an absolute shambles and that’s me being polite .... countless amounts of calls, hours on end of holding on the line and trying to resolve a very simple issue and it is STILL not resolved ..I am beyond frustrated now and will never ever use you again

  • ChrisyL1 Chris L (@ChrisyL1) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia Ty for getting back to me, look we have been together for too long to just throw it all away bc of one incident so I will take a look once I’m home from work ... I miss you lots x

  • LiisaJane LiisaJane'x (@LiisaJane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia How on earth can you on a simple change over of service that your representative said or was an easy job & you still 5months later still being billed & endless promises not kept now it’s calls eating into family time & not end in sight!! Help

  • TheSugg David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia morning, your text service seems to have stopped talking to me and we’ve spent another week with no service. Who can I speak to?

  • tmacbond Tmak (@tmacbond) reported from Wickford, England

    @1KolaAdebisi @virginmedia @Ofcom @Ofcom Your intervention is really needed here because @virginmedia has really failed in their dispensing of service #ShabbyServices

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia we done that, all connections are in to the box, your company network thinks that we are connected via router this not so, but has a cable run into the house.

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia reply to your tweet “NO” my wife pays a lot of money to your company for a poor service.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mejulie64 Julie Bailey (@mejulie64) reported

    @virginmedia Yes we have tried numerous times and the lights are still flashing green. We are having to use our personal data allowance for zoom calls and no one is answering calls at Virgin media. This has been going on for the last month. We have these problems virtually every day!!

  • drum_cc CCDrum (@drum_cc) reported

    @virginmedia @cm7omo This, right here, is a lie. I've been waiting for my internet to be fixed since Mid November. VM Customer Support is the worst I've ever experienced.

  • nleaney Nigel Leaney (@nleaney) reported

    @virginmedia any known issues in CB24 at the moment. Broadband appears to be down but nothing reported in the status site yet?

  • dringy40 Dringy (@dringy40) reported

    . @virginmedia hi I’m having speed issues - the upload is less than 3 and it’s causing massive issues with my work - should be 10mbps - was on chat yesterday for over 5 hours then got cut off - can you help please ASAP

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done this multiple times. I’ve had virgin 8 years and all I get is issue after issue

  • rmills599 RICHARD MILLS (@rmills599) reported

    @virginmedia I have done both of those things more times that I can remember, never got any reply from texts, just false promises that never happen from calls.

  • MatthewAlbertOw Matthew Albert Owen (@MatthewAlbertOw) reported

    @virginmedia Good morning, my Internet isn't working this morning, HP3 postcode. Is the service completely down? Do you have a time frame on repairs? Thank you

  • drum_cc CCDrum (@drum_cc) reported

    @MikeWhitnall @virginmedia Don't do it - they've got massive problems with over utilisation at the moment. Check out their Community Forums and you'll see loads of people with ping and latency problems.

  • GraemeGarton Graeme Garton (@GraemeGarton) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have reset it via the button on the back, I have reset it by unplugging it disconnecting wires. I have called your “help” centres to be told via automated msg that there’s a problem with my line and it has been remotely reset None of this has helped #virginmedia #useless

  • MissLizzieReed Elizabeth Reed (@MissLizzieReed) reported

    @virginmedia Dropped again!! I assume that issue is not just me - as what VM tell me is there is an issue in area. Nevertheless - how do I do a pin hole reset?
