    @virginmedia what the actual **** is wrong with you people if it was phone bill you guys would have deducted all long time ago but y’all don’t want me to make calls and y’all decided not to warn us either. I swear to God I’m not paying my bill this month periodt

  • NormanStiff Namron #FBPE (@NormanStiff) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia HI, your on-demand service is not really on- demand, I tried to watch Sundays Line of Duty today it is not on demand unless I pay another service, why is this.

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

    @virginmedia Faulty equipment, price rise and awful customer service.

  • sharonblaxland Sharon (@sharonblaxland) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia has gone down, no internet and only a few obscure tv channels.... that I’m watching, so I can keep watching telly 😳

  • LAURABELLE72 Laura Elliott (@LAURABELLE72) reported from Thundersley, England

    Have some sense @virginmedia if your mobile phone systems are having issues why wait until the caller has been on hold for over 15 minutes to play the recorded message that says there's nothing you can do about it #********* #CustomerService

  • marcsnappy Marc Corn (@marcsnappy) reported from Basildon, England

    @Shadow_Official @virginmedia This issue I found happened more on wifi, I had to put in a secondary switch and run everything via Ethernet.

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

    @virginmedia This has been ongoing for over a month now. Pixelated on BBC2, E4, Channel 5 etc. I’m entirely feed up with this awful service and this month my bill has increased again.

  • WUFC2005 Football 4 All (@WUFC2005) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia nothing but issues. 2G & 5G always stops working. Updates happens when ever it feels like. And every time I contact Virgin, it's like talking to a 6 year old.

  • KudaLudaLegend1 Kuda Madzikanda (@KudaLudaLegend1) reported from Gravesend, England

    Seriously getting towards 24hr broadband outage..Can someone tell me if I can cancel my contract as technically @virginmedia have not met their contractual obligation🤔

  • Steve_Butler SB78 (@Steve_Butler) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia Just called customer services asking for some cable so I can move a TiVo box - completely unhelpful & didn't understand what I wanted Just kept telling me £99 for an engineer

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

    @virginmedia 2nd complaint made via your website as still no contact from the resolution team!

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

    @virginmedia No advice, no contact = appalling service. This is the problem!

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

    @virginmedia Another week has passed, still no contact from your unbelievably awful resolution team!

  • DebzGlover Debz Glover😜 (@DebzGlover) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia Hi, no service issues in my area according to your website

  • MalcolmLouth Mac (@MalcolmLouth) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia My approach is simply to contact my service provider who I pay a lot of money to and ask them to sort it. That hasn’t worked.

  • sharonblaxland Sharon (@sharonblaxland) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia why oh why do you keep sending me paper bills AND charging me for them, I have never asked for a paper bill and have phone to cancel them twice 😡🤬 and this morning what do I get 😡😡😡

  • DouglasEmma07 Emma douglas (@DouglasEmma07) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia poor customer service - simple problem to solve (COM103207174 complaint ref number)

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • amydocherty29 Amy Docherty (@amydocherty29) reported

    @virginmedia Yes both it cuts out constantly and we have to reboot continuously. An engineer was out and changed the settings but at that time it was one of the few times it was working and the guy said it should now be fine but it’s not. It is just as bad if not worse.

  • scole12 Sam Cole (@scole12) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, but the text service doesn't let me cancel my account, and I need confirmation of this. I've tried for 2 weeks, and it's been exceptionally poor. Is there a direct number?

  • Grumpygit87 Grumpy git87 (@Grumpygit87) reported

    @virginmedia I have had several conversations with your tech team and reset the hub several times and also tried all the trouble shooting available still have problems

  • lil_x1988 Christina X DiChello (@lil_x1988) reported

    @virginmedia how do I cancel my free 30 day trial of prime video from the box itself?

  • InTheLittleWood Martyn Littlewood (@InTheLittleWood) reported

    @virginmedia The router we're currently using has a few persistent issues: Signal distance is abysmal. With no blockades and on an elevated surface, it barely reaches 6 feet. Through a wall? No signal. Correct password (even when apple WiFi sharing it) is refused, seemingly at random..

  • philstoke Phil 🌴 (@philstoke) reported

    @virginmedia Getting ridiculous now all I want to do is register an account without my account number I can't do this. I ring up to be told they need my account number I don't know it I've even phoned up to try and pay it all off so I can leave you and shop elsewhere & even that's a problem

  • daddyto3monkeys Steve Mayne (@daddyto3monkeys) reported

    @virginmedia No local outage. The box is stuck in a reboot loop (it's about 5 years old). Please can you let me know the next steps? Thank you!

  • amydocherty29 Amy Docherty (@amydocherty29) reported

    @virginmedia No it’s a persistent problem. Anytime we try to get something done about it nothing gets done!

  • Fiona440301481 Fizzle (@Fiona440301481) reported

    @virginmedia Access to the internet keeps dropping out. No reported issues in the area.

  • DrManiBhogal Dr Mani Bhogal (@DrManiBhogal) reported

    @BenEllisCrim @SkyHelpTeam Wow, shocking service. Join @virginmedia. Touch wood, my Internet has been pretty good during lockdown.
