    @virginmedia I had my WiFi and phone installed back in June , the box outside my house was broken so your engineer connected to my next door neighbour, and was told it would only be for a week , I have phoned numerous times and just get ignored . Atrocious service!

  • LizzyLoly Liz Loly (@LizzyLoly) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get hold of someone to establish why I cannot login to my account online and why I have been overcharged. Despite being told several times that someone would get back to me in 24 hours it never seems to happen. Please advise how I can reach you.

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia New issue started a few days ago , tv keeps going off , not a TV issue .

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia been a loyal@customer over 15 years. Terrible service . Router issues, tv issues, renewal package severly higher than new customer discount. Told to go sky for a better price !! Great customer service #virginmedia

  • cherylblackmini Cheryl 💇 (@cherylblackmini) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @Bearded365Guy @virginmedia I’ve tried to get the link a number of times but they still have t sent it. Awful service I just want to speak to a person who doesn’t put me on hold and redirect me to another dept who don’t answer, so frustrating

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 0osScreamo0 Sarah (@0osScreamo0) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi down. The "check area" page says there are no local issues but when I run a test it says there are local connection issues. Bl5. Any idea if this is being looked into?

  • mjtolhurst Max James Tolhurst (@mjtolhurst) reported

    How am I still waiting for @virginmedia to sort out my connection to my new home when they have admitted they caused the problem in the first place?? Cannot be passed through to another department - surely there is a limit to how many times you can be transferred!?

  • rooconroy Roo🌈💙💖👨‍👩‍👧‍👧😻🐶🦋🐛🐞🐝🌺🌻 (@rooconroy) reported

    Why @virginmedia are you charging me a cancellation fee over £90 when it's you that can't provide your service in my new house!!!!!!!

  • Saul_Grist Saul Grist (@Saul_Grist) reported

    It would be great if I could speak to someone in your technical support team who actually is skilled enough to deal with my issue and not read from a script @virginmedia

  • Bousfield2Tom Tom Bousfield (@Bousfield2Tom) reported

    @virginmedia I have the matix package. I didnt even realise how you did channels that werent HD. How many days do i have to cancel please as i cant carry on watching channels like this. I have checked other channels and they work fine so must be because not HD

  • paulmclarke79 Greenway Landscaping (@paulmclarke79) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I can login to the app fine but cant login to TV go Says suspended

  • S_t_e_v_e_P_ Steve (@S_t_e_v_e_P_) reported

    @virginmedia Having just spoken to the disconnections team, I now understand why VirginMedia hasn’t bothered to fix my email problem- apparently it’s not part of the “contract” and thus you’re under no obligation to provide the service!

  • donnykebab1972 Kieron Griffin (@donnykebab1972) reported

    @virginmedia Again, I am using it as a record of how rubbish the service has been.

  • mickyginn make Bobby Moore a Sir ⚒ (@mickyginn) reported
