    @virginmedia Hi, I cancelled my contract and it finished on 27 July. Just received an email saying my next (massively increased) payment is due on 11 August. Can’t login on the app or online to sort it. Can you help?

  • lizhearn4 lizhearn_ (@lizhearn4) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I need to give notice to not carry on the contract after the minimum term ends but because I can’t remember my password - and the website won’t let me change it - I can’t get in contact with anyone, can you help?

  • NikiNoox Niki 💜 ◟̽◞̽ (@NikiNoox) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I keep getting spam calls from you, every day someone phones offering 'exclusive offers and discounts' and are rude.

  • gxyred Jared (@gxyred) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia Says no known faults but on down detector there’s lots of reports. I don’t think the internet has ever gone down until y’all came to improve the service last week eek

  • Keifski Craig Keith (@Keifski) reported from Ringwood, England

    @Kate_likes_ @virginmedia I’m in the BH postcode and can’t even get Virgin Media.... annoying as the speed everywhere else is ****!

  • LaurenSTompkins Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia any idea what’s happening why our region is having so many problems and when this will be rectified. This has been going on all day.

  • MattandPt Matt Anderson (@MattandPt) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia my partner is trying to cancel her contract as we are moving. So far telephone not answered, account not recognised online and online chat makes you wait for ages then closes after a couple of minutes and she’s working so misses it. S/o has now been cancelled. Help!

  • LonerganChris Chris Lonergan (@LonerganChris) reported from Poole, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Shadysunhat your pal sal (@Shadysunhat) reported

    @virginmedia All of your own diagnostics are indicating it’s an issue with connection and not our hub, but offers no solutions.

  • topfamilylawyer Nigel Shepherd (@topfamilylawyer) reported

    @virginmedia you've sent me an email saying my contract is due to expire. I need to discuss options but call waiting times are unmanageable and the link you sent me to online help on package/offers takes me to a message that says that's not available online! Please advise.

  • vmbusinesshelp Customer Service (@vmbusinesshelp) reported

    @JordanHall_dev @vmbusiness Hi Jordan, I am sorry you feel this way, if you are a business customer, please send us a DM @vmbusinesshelp with your account number, business name and full billing address so we can help you further. Thanks !

  • Shadysunhat your pal sal (@Shadysunhat) reported

    @virginmedia Out of interest, what’s justification for no call centre support? I know many companies are doing this remotely during pandemic so I don’t understand why there is no human support because of COVID? Surely this is the time we need home BB support more than ever?

  • Weezy_IPD WEEZY (@Weezy_IPD) reported

    @virginmedia Correct they said this last time everything looked fine on the app the they said underlying issue i didnt even know about

  • Tmutley71 Tina Campbell (@Tmutley71) reported

    @virginmedia your live chat service is ****! 3 times this morning my chat has been cut off and “Terri the triage bot” reappears incredibly frustrating

  • Mendelpol Jack Mendel (@Mendelpol) reported

    @virginmedia The right thing to do, is to tell a customer 'your contract has ended, and after this date, you're going to be charged this amount'. Now trying to navigate your site to figure out when I need to cancel - so I'm not left without internet

  • scottgdouglas Scott Douglas (@scottgdouglas) reported

    @virginmedia Check my Case No (1212201507) for full details. Since I had to explain it. In full. To at least four separate people during the horrendous torture session passing for telephone customer service. Sorry to sound snarky, but easily *the worst* "support" I have ever experienced.

  • MarcusParry9 Marcus Parry (@MarcusParry9) reported

    @FozzyDoesThings I’ve got one of the virgin media booster thing and plugs into my socket then Ethernet to the PlayStation I tried that last night and didn’t have many issues so will see what it’s like the next few days

  • scottgdouglas Scott Douglas (@scottgdouglas) reported

    @virginhelp @Virgin @virginmedia Can I suggest someone DMs me? I know of at least two *vital* Government freephone numbers that seem to be completely inaccessable from Virgin landlines. My reward for trying to report this was almost four hours (FFS!) on hold on your customer support lines.
