    Hi @virginmedia, I’ve had no picture or sound on my TV for 24 hours now. Even on my apps the picture and sound aren’t loading. Subtitles still showing up though. It’s a TiVo box. Any help appreciated would be great.

  • KeithJBolton Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia WA9 4SA no Internet. Says no issues in my area but obviously there is

  • ann_ellison Kerrie-Ann Ellison (@ann_ellison) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia It’s taken 4hrs to get your incompetent team to cancel the package properly. Now there is just the matter of the Overdue bill and the final bill.

  • clarebellla Clare B (@clarebellla) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are there any issues in Liverpool L12 area as tv not coming on since at least 5:30 am this morning

  • ann_ellison Kerrie-Ann Ellison (@ann_ellison) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Turns out your team didn’t cancel my package, like I wanted. Absolutely 🤬 joke.

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Can this be done while the Wi-Fi is down? We recently lost FOUR days service but "hadn't complained properly!!" So couldn't claim!!

  • jenlew1983 Jeanette Lewis (@jenlew1983) reported from Liverpool, England

    Yet again my @virginmedia TV isn't working and yet again there's no help on the website and no answer on the phone.....exactly what am I paying my bill for??!!

  • StuartWilksHeeg Stuart Wilks-Heeg (@StuartWilksHeeg) reported from Seaforth, England

    I literally cannot distinguish between real @virginmedia customer service calls and the scammers. And this isn't because the scammers have suddenly got very good.

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry really trying to be chill but this is horrendous customer service. Cut off after 40 mins, call back which I answer immediately and cut off again. No further attempt from your team to contact me. I've told them i want to cancel my order can you please confirm?

  • HellsbellsO Helen Walsh-ONeill (@HellsbellsO) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia is there a problem with internet in Widnes r has gone off

  • KeithJBolton Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Done all that and booked an engineer for Friday but just had a text saying my engineer is on hold while investigate a network problem affecting services

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @its_coco_do Well I've clearly been forgotten conveniently after calling telling an agent I want to cancel my order and being cut off. Promised a call back. Nothing. Every time I call I get dropped. Ridiculous

  • kkgorny1972 Kev (@kkgorny1972) reported from Liverpool, England

    @NetflixUK is it just me or does @virginmedia keep canceling my netflix subscription, they have changed the payment system and its now **** but they are embarrassed to admit it, its pathetic. Please let me know

  • Glynpeach Glyn Peach (@Glynpeach) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia worst customer support service I’ve ever experienced

  • ann_ellison Kerrie-Ann Ellison (@ann_ellison) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia 30 day cancellation is nearly up, just waiting on the returns packaging to arrive. But don’t see why I have to pay £150 for a service I’ve not been able to use for a month

  • MadRabbitLady75 Hannah McKay (@MadRabbitLady75) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia After over 4 hours on chat it's dealt with thank you...... nearly 5 hours in total to terminate my services.....

  • MadRabbitLady75 Hannah McKay (@MadRabbitLady75) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia They answered, established they couldn't sell me a new product then told me to phone back in the day my contract ends and immediately hung up.. If it was clearly stated online in your info "don't phone us to cancel until your contract ends" I'd have saved 35 minutes of my day..

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 1tappleby Thomas Appleby (@1tappleby) reported

    @virginmedia I paid for an upgrade to the broadband package because the service was so poor and now I'm being penalised for paying more money after upgrading to the highest package. This is not good corporate behaviour and falls well below minimum standards expected

  • MooresVicky Vicky Moores (@MooresVicky) reported

    @virginmedia I've messaged countless times now for the same thing, I'm unsure what you need to chat about! Just send somebody to fix it please

  • dubysam Sam Duby (@dubysam) reported

    @virginmedia I did, that's how I got to booking the engineer. But it turned out to be an area outage and it's just been fixed. Thanks.

  • stevenmontagu16 steven montague (@stevenmontagu16) reported

  • MLuker85 Mark Luker (@MLuker85) reported

    @virginmedia I was never told of the problems. How on earth can i have an intermittent service until October? That's appaling!
