  • Pegaso650 Jon Lovett (@Pegaso650) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia There are no faults in my area. The issue is likely to be with the router as the 2.4ghz works consistently on other devices.

    @virginmedia It’s been awful. The connection is sporadic at best.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • lillylalgal Louise Cowley (@lillylalgal) reported

    @virginmedia an engineer required to fix intermittent fault in SL0 0SF. Unable to work - are you going to pay the client @virginmedia

  • CantMandi Mandi_Cant (@CantMandi) reported

    @virginmedia I always reported faults and could no longer work at home with broadband that regularly went down, a few times for a day or more. Sky use a different infrastructure, I will see if they are any different.

  • InvirtiendoPaP InvirtiendoPocoaPoco (@InvirtiendoPaP) reported

    @virginmedia I did, but now it says there is a network problem. It doesn't say when it's going to be resolved though...

  • iwantcandy82 Ria Tonge (@iwantcandy82) reported

    @virginmedia No thanks, clearly it's an issue all over at the moment so a web chat would be pointless. Plus I have very little mobile data and I don't want to waste it.

  • MincheryFarmWeb MFW Gav (@MincheryFarmWeb) reported

    @virginmedia The response to my complaint will decide whether you keep a 10 year customer or not. It's in the balance.

  • Hawkeye_74 Paul Hawkins (@Hawkeye_74) reported

    @virginmedia why do you think it’s acceptable to move my broadband installation from 17th September to 6th October. I’m a new customer and already don’t want to be. Is there anyone who can help move this apt as your call centre responses are awful to your embarrassing service?

  • SashaLangeveldt Future PM (@SashaLangeveldt) reported

    @virginmedia Never get @virginmedia I just had the most important interview of my life and my WiFi didn't work. I had to call through my data... Were paying for 200mbps and we barely get 100.... I actually want to cry.

  • RubyRoubaix76 Lillian (@RubyRoubaix76) reported

    @Paulkiely11 @virginmedia Also not working in Wimbledon 😡

  • wedroveallnight Matty (@wedroveallnight) reported

    @MincheryFarmWeb @virginmedia Copy the CEO and make a nuisance of yourself pal. It's the only way these people will do something about it. My mission now is to make the CEO @LutzSchueler just how bad it is as he seems either ignorant to it or just plain oblivious. Ive had no mobile signal for 2 weeks now

  • welshwa81518941 @welshwarrior (@welshwa81518941) reported

    @virginmedia It's my gmail to email that's the problem. Btw i got Cameron out of his meetings to speak with me after i told Naomi what my solicitor said. But give Cameron his due he did say he was embarrassed & shocked. Anyway he's Welsh so we had a good rapport. Speak later😎
