    @virginmedia There is a blockage, that I know - I have had no service since November. I was told it would not be sorted before March 6th. I had been promised 3 call backs from different people in the Exec Department - none have followed up.

    Hey @virginmedia when are people in the CR0 postcode going to get their Internet back? It's been down since lunch? Any ETA? Need to plan if I need to go to the office tomorrow instead.

    @virginmedia Might I add that the last handler in pre install stated he was a 'senior' and he was incredibly rude, talking over me and trying to tell me what my problem was!

    @virginmedia Is there an outage in SW4? I checked the online status on your webpage, but it says there are no issues and yet I do not have internet at home.

    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyoneโ€™s internet is down: but I donโ€™t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

    @virginmedia John - lights are on but the external fault has already been established. It is a contractor that has to deal with the issue - one claimed to have done it but it failed to work - now you contractor is failing to respond to requests by your colleagues 4 updates on a new commission

    @Argos_Online I've always thought Virgin Media were the unanimous heavyweight champions of 'couldn't give a ****' customer 'care' but today, I've just realised (only because I deal with VM a lot more) that there's a genuine contender - a great white 'hope'!๐Ÿคฌ DISGUSTING!

  • ferdi_rezvan
    Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported

    @virginmedia Multiple random outages over 24 hours, and your virgin status page does not work properly. Should have stayed with BT in 2 years and had no outages. Regret joining virgin media , poor internet and poor technical support.

  • mikey_mol
    Mikey Molfessis (@mikey_mol) reported

    @virginmedia if your technicians cannot fix a problem in 4 weeks and I get no refund and your status update says everything is fine, but multiple people in the area are affected, do me a favour and stop calling me to sell me additional services. Please.

    @SuzieD755164 @RTEOne @virginmedia Weak men created bad times, bad times create strong men, strong men create good times.. thatโ€™s what happening now, the incompetence of these elites has pushed us into the dark ages.. now people are rising to bring back common sense and stability

  • ninepine
    Mike Fuller (@ninepine) reported

    @virginmedia Apology accepted but your data is clearly bad and your systems faulty if you have to rely on assumptions not truth. Sadly symptomatic of @virginmedia - @ICOnews should investigate. When your systems also wrongly say I haven't paid my bill in full it's systemic not unusual.๐Ÿ˜ก

    @SparkyLotus @youfibre Iโ€™ve had You Fibre and Virgin Media knocking last few last weeks, so seems itโ€™s still a thing for broadband sales. I always say that I will never buy anything that someone knocks at my house to sell.

  • MsLiberty1776US
    Charlotte Riggio (@MsLiberty1776US) reported

    @virginmedia 6 hours and no response to the DM you asked for We apologised for the inconvenience caused. We have arranged for a specialised technician to visit you today between 12 PM and 4 PM to resolve both the TV . Your complaint has been raised and will remain open to ensure everything is fully resolved, and you will receive confirmation of the appointment via text message.

    @virginmedia @kimtaylor18 In 2026 I cannot understand why people want to pay for a TV service that you can subscribe to yourself. I have Virgin 1Gb then I subscribe to Netflix Amazon Prime & Disney, when it's F1 season I subscribe to Sky sports but I can cancel when I want at no extra charge

    We have not received or seen any further updates from Virgin Media. According to their Service Status page, an issue does still exist but the fix time has not changed. If any customers are still experiencing issues, we would recommend getting in touch with them directly.
