Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LoZeno Verified Jedi (@LoZeno) reported

    @Sparkle_71 @dhrutishah @virginmedia If their internet doesn't work, they can't use the Virgin media phone; and today's outage has affected also the emergency lines given to vulnerable customers. So the only way to call Virgin Media is to use non-Virgin Media phones.

  • rawsonjones Ben Rawson-Jones (@rawsonjones) reported

    @virginmedia You should have been aware many hours ago when your customers were. Are you hiking prices next month to pay for new yachts for fat cat CEOs rather than a better service to the public? Prices high enough already.

  • BTCrypto1 Just a number (@BTCrypto1) reported

    @virginmedia I really understand that sometimes issues can happen but what about when we have to negotiate our bills all the time, or every time our contract expires... if the culture is not changed I'm done with you, paying over £100 a month is not worth the stress

  • leg999 Lauren (@leg999) reported

    @virginmedia Were you waiting for the press to start reporting on the outage before communicating to your customers? Or waiting for it to be fixed? The outage didn’t disappoint me, the total silence from the company did.

  • Lynsey_nufc ⚽️⚪️⚫️Lynsey ⚫️⚪️⚽️ (@Lynsey_nufc) reported

    @virginmedia We’ve had poor service since November 2022 ! Engineer out last week confirms we have had multiple drop outs even one day with no service at all . System says you will get auto compensation no need to log . But yet no compensation just an increase in monthly bill #timetomove

  • CypherCookie Callum Dean (@CypherCookie) reported

    @vmbusiness yo maybe make a statement about the outage for your business customers?

  • Steven99990817 Steven (@Steven99990817) reported

    @dhrutishah @virginmedia If its a backup unit (BBU) your parents have had installed, they are only able to call emergency services from it if their broadband has gone down. They are fitted with a sim card incase of a situation such as this one.

  • scoobyfizz Darren Hughes (@scoobyfizz) reported

    @SenseMakesNone @virginmedia a telecoms company like VM would have maintenance work and network work going on overnight rather than daytime. There also would or should have been a priorty 1 escalation of this issue happening regardless of time of day. The would have known about it around 2am at least

  • Zait0bu Zai (@Zait0bu) reported

    @virginmedia Pretty embarrasing lack of communication and service literally the day before you bump up everyone's prices. You have a monopoly in my area or I would be gone in a heartbeat.

  • SarahFenn13 Sarah Fenn (@SarahFenn13) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having to hotspot my personal phone to work. I doubt you will compensate me for my personal data loss. Having your service pages down is unforgivable too
