Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England
@virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England
@virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.
-
#AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England
The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

@virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

@TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines
-
Steven Kraan 🐀 (@drawing_daily) reported from Islington, England
@virginmedia internet down second day in a row, when will it work again?
-
Dr Jan Evelyn-Wilson (@WilsonJevelyn) reported from London, England
@VirginMedia wi-fi just cut out AGAIN! Annoying when one is in the middle of something. WHY!
-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England
@ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known
-
Alex (@ameehan71) reported from Bromley, England
@_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.
-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England
So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

Carol Dover (@CarolB29041964) reported from Stifford, England
Just how **** are Virgin Media...my email was down for two evenings and probably the days as well earlier in the week, and now it's down again. Virgin Media i need to access my emails....this level of service is unacceptable. I'm paying for this crap service! @virginmedia

Mark 🌈🏳️🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England
@virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.
-
グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England
I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected
-
Kim Edwards (@KimEdwards48) reported from Stifford, England
@AmandaSeager @virginmedia Same in Central London, my Company uses Virgin and we have had issues all day long
-
Melanie Hart (@MelanieHart72) reported from London, England
@virginmedia You have put my bill up from £84 to £96 in one month and you are not providing a service I should have my full services 24/7 for that price and getting any compensation it like getting blood out of a stone !!! Disgusting service

Anna Thurman (@AnnaThurmanLDN) reported from Bexleyheath, England
@virginmedia sort it out! I’ve got Betty next door hollering at me over the fence when I’m trying to get the washing in asking if it’s gone down! #virginmedia #VirginMediaoutage

Kieran (@kieranfarrell33) reported
@virginmedia There is a fault for the 2nd day in a row out of nowhere. Fine all morning until the afternoon and then it goes down
-
Kieran (@kieranfarrell33) reported
@simonwilkes13 @virginmedia @Virgin Gone down for me too again in the West Midlands. Yesterday it went down for a couple hours and has just gone down for me again today. Similar time frame too. With the green flashing light on the box and virgin stating there is an issue…
-
Ste (@SteT238) reported
@virginmedia It is happening to every phone in the house, my laptop and the tv streams a film like it's 2005 never mind 2025. I think it's safe to say we have a fault without having to do a wired test.
-
DKTB (@becks9539) reported
@virginmedia the Engineer who came to fix our Internet outage in the E5 0EQ remained professional & cutus. It is 35/36 degrees outside today. can make sure his manager is informed of how much of good job he did. I did offer him some water if he needed it
-
#SPNUKfan (@j7Julie) reported
@virginmedia I wonder if this is sincere as it isn't the first time you've done this. No consideration for those working from home, those who work night-shift, or the service vehicles who will struggle to get past. But thank you for your response.
-
Andrew Benjamin (@ukmatrixman) reported
@virginmedia yet another outage while our whole household is working from home! Can’t even call you without having our account number to hand your IVR is also infuriating!!! Customer service certainly not at its best!! I regret coming back to you to give you another chance!!!
-
Harri (@rayvn69gaming) reported
@virginmedia im having issues with my wifi and im in London, any information on this?
-
K (@Kerry6411237181) reported
@virginmedia internet keeps cutting off, it then says no issue in your area then says intermittent signal in your area. I’ve called up, no use as engineer can’t come out until Monday which means 4-5 days with no wifi which is relied on. HELPP???
-
itsonlyme (@JoLockett11) reported
@virginmedia It's still down as I'm not suprised
-
Vunderlander (@vunderlander) reported
Five days of broadband outage @virginmedia told they have to do a diagnostic for next 28 days and have an internal engineer visit for contract exit All complaints via their portal so no external audit trail. Tidy #broadband #virginmedia
