  • 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

  • Cod49ers Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    Another afternoon on to @virginmedia with absolutely no body willing to help. The customer service is as appalling as the service they provide. The sooner I can get back to @skytv the better #virginbroadband #virginmedia #con #ripoff

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Cod49ers Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia A thousand times. On a chat all day yesterday and was promised someone would call me, no one did. To say this is the worst customer experience I have ever had would be an understatement.

  • 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

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

    @lobsterpants66 @virginmedia Yep. Engineer never turned up but logged it as he turned up and couldn’t get a reply. Lying b’stard.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Cod49ers Marc Tobin (@Cod49ers) reported from Grays, England

    @financialombuds can I get out of my @virginmedia contract with no costs due to their complete failure to provide the service I pay for and refuse to deal with my issues

  • 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.

  • 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

  • paulparker81 Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead

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

    @1KolaAdebisi Endless calls eating into family time & still no end in sight just being fobbed off @virginmedia this is awful services @Ofcom please help

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    Problems with @virginmedia continue. Now the wifi is down and no streaming tonight! #shouldnothaveleftsky #FirstWorldProblems

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Andyyb33 Andrew Balfour (@Andyyb33) reported

    @virginmedia Just checked, no issues in my area. Must be something to do with the equipment. How can we move forward and fix the issue and get the speeds im paying for?

  • DavidsYo David Suckling (@DavidsYo) reported

    @virginmedia I get an error page when trying to register an account as a new customer - is there currently an issue?

  • slf_toon Bubs (@slf_toon) reported

    @virginmedia Folks, pixelation issues. Not for the first time. Lots of channels. Happens every now and then. Ive quietly put up with it, but A) Its the 21st century,B) I'm paying a lot of my hard earned cash for this service and C) I've got a lovely expensive TV. Whats going on?

  • Twas_By_Design ☕ Chris aka Old 'Twas Boi. ☕ (@Twas_By_Design) reported

    Stream is cancelled again because after three weeks of issues @virginmedia would rather spend their billions on sending @richardbranson into space than improve their upload speeds. You're literally killing my main source of income and my mental wellbeing. #virginmedia

  • CarlaPo93675545 Carla Powell (@CarlaPo93675545) reported

    @virginmedia For what? To tell me when my appointments are? They are not true as they don't turn up! I will be leaving you very soon, never have I experienced such bad customer service, shocking its been

  • debbiethomas50 Debbie Thomas (@debbiethomas50) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia, this issue only seems to be related to virgin media based on all the comments on Twitter. Unfortunately my mobile network and wifi are both virgin media. Twitter say it’s an issue on your side so do you know when a fix will be applied?

  • Morrigan_Wolfe Morrigan Wolfe (@Morrigan_Wolfe) reported

    @O2 "For now" Virgin Media have a terrible reputation for increasing bills without informing the customer and for threatening calls about unpaid bills.... I've been an o2 customer for over 11 years and WHEN Virgin take over, I'll be leaving for a different provider.

  • infomotiveUK infomotiveUK 📷 (@infomotiveUK) reported

    Still not able to play videos on twitter. It's definitely not a device issue, any other @virginmedia broadband users having the same problem?

  • RealCainMosni Raj 🇬🇧🇪🇺💻🖥️👨🏽‍🎓 🔶 (@RealCainMosni) reported

    @virginmedia It's simple enough - just detach my account from any e-mail filtering. I never authorised it to begin with. You just took it upon yourselves.

  • Claytons91 Clayton Stockwell (@Claytons91) reported

    @virginmedia Once again services down in the area and we can’t speak to anyone. Affecting my job (currently working from home) and never getting the service I pay for. Supposed to have credited my account several times but guess what no credit.
