  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I also play Destiny 2. I thought it may have been their servers but my boyfriend doesn't have the issue.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

  • agarnett
    Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • RayWaring
    Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Please contact me via this route - will be the quickest way to respond and resolve the issue

  • davetarl
    Dave Tarleton 💙 (@davetarl) reported from Wallasey, England

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my contract as it is at the end. Twice now I have been kicked off the chat whilst waiting. This is unacceptable. I can't ring at present so the chat is ideal to run in the background. I just want to press a button that says end the contract!

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

  • Radebreast
    Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.

  • lurkinhead
    Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

  • TheWiganParky
    Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.

    @virginmedia broadband being down again, how, why

  • John_Kelly17
    John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England

    @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  • Its_Sal_Queen
    Sarah Hill (@Its_Sal_Queen) reported from Liverpool, England

    Would love to be able to start work @virginmedia, but the Internet is down.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • realjackoh187
    Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia I'm checking online and it's saying there is an issue with the TV, but saying broadband is fine. I've had constant disconnections throughout the day for 2 weeks now. It works for a few minutes then goes off. What is going on?

  • 92Tevs
    Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

  • lurkinhead
    Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @les_murray71 @virginmedia Still saying 12.05 on the app Lesley .... have they put that new estimated fix time out elsewhere? 😱

  • EmmaZhaan64
    Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia according to your representative my wifi is working perfectly and I don’t have any issues! That’s a bit odd considering I no service what so ever!

  • pstock62
    Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • Nicolajb87
    Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia can you help my mum and dad they have had no telephone line since yesterday. The internet also went off but that seems to be back on now. It’s vital we get the phone on asap

    Virgin Media genuinely have to be one of the worst companies in existence. A no show on an engineer, three days in a row.

  • yerwhit
    Gaz (@yerwhit) reported

    @EpicLastSong @virginmedia My virgin Internet signal dropped out all the time, after being told to restart several times, I bought a tp-link router and used the virgin one as a modem, no problem after that.

  • mikael_gatfi
    Alexander Stone (@mikael_gatfi) reported

    Tired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_IPTV_PRO6 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies.

  • SU__Crypto
    S.U (@SU__Crypto) reported

    @HayekAndChips @virginmedia @MartinSLewis Can never sign in also to Virgin. Absolute BS. Same ordeal I had. £70 package, contract finished, £230 it went to. Cancelled. Then got it for £72.

  • ROBOTkombucha

    @virginmedia @emmamcl_xo Crap service - always going down, and they never refund you..

  • Paulfoster_64
    Paul foster (@Paulfoster_64) reported

    @virginmedia internet is down in the RH11 area, AGAIN! This service absolutely sucks!

  • alanmonolith
    A.Monolith @alanmonolith@bsky.social (@alanmonolith) reported

    @virginmedia the update time for the ML6 outage remains at 22:06 tonight since the first minute of it being off. Is this just a random time , feels unlikely due to working hours and worry that it’ll drag to tomorrow. Please can I have an update that isn’t check the checker?

  • customerchamp1
    Paul ▶️ (@customerchamp1) reported

    Who remembers when @O2 customer service was good? Since the merger with the appalling @virginmedia it's been absolutely diabolical. Trying to help a vulnerable relative, been on hold for 45 minutes 🤮🤮🤮 to reset his password. Shameful.

  • FrazzzYT
    Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported

    @virginmedia Consistently says "intermittent signal in your area" This has literally been going on for around a week now. And seems to coicide when there is a little tiny bit or rain...

  • y_alibhai
    Yasmin alibhai-brown (@y_alibhai) reported

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia what are you doing about this problem? And failure on the part of your company?
