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.
-
marksonofjohn (@marksonofjohn) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia Hi No broadband service in CB113HG Can you please tell me what the issue is.
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England@vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising
-
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.
-
Simon Groutage (@myball123) reported from Bexleyheath, England@virginmedia hi there, all of our services have dropped out in the last ten minutes, the router changed to a flashing red light without anybody touching it. I have rebooted the router and it comes back on but is still flashing red. No TV, no WiFi, no landline help please
-
Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?
-

-
#TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia I've covered all the options; there aren't many. It tells me there are no problems in my area and then defaults to the bot chat.
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, EnglandThere’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes
-
Carol Dover (@CarolB29041964) reported from Stifford, EnglandJust 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
-
Baz, Wacky worm! (@mobiusb2) reported from Lambeth, EnglandOh great Broadband broken! , and now got to wait in for Virgin media to fix it tommorow afternoon. Probably punishment for not watching the funeral.
-
Leigh Booker 🐈⬛ 3.5% #FBPE #FBPPR #GTTO (@leighbooker) reported from Welling, England@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.
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 4/ I work from home so asked what can I do in the meantime? No help given. I asked to speak to a supervisor. Waited 15 mins to speak to Supervisor ( 45 mins total already spent on phone)..
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Though I am dyslexic I have painstakingly done this on multiple devices and have photos to show It - not posting them publicly but it does not recognise that password 😢 A search on line suggests the problem is not unique. I have one hour to call the manufacturer if you advice.
-
Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Lambeth, EnglandYou still have not fixed the internet at Sw4 @virginmedia ???? What do you reckon your subscribers think of you? Good or bad ???
-
Tim Hyson (@timhyson) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia 20 hours of being passed around your customer ‘care’ teams and no progress. And yet I doubt this is even close to a record.
-
Mr Wookie aka Cliff (@DogAteMyWookie) reported from Croydon, EnglandHey @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.
-
Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’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???
-
Adam H-Matthews (@AdamHMatthews) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia How does £8.40 a day cover 2 people unable to work for a full day? Still no contact from Virgin engineer or any comment on what the issue is? The time to fix the issue just keeps getting later.

-
Chris Davis (@cdavo25) reported@virginmedia WORST Internet Provider iv ever had! Internet breaks takes nearly 2 weeks to fix it and within a week it broke again! And all you get back from customer care is no understanding and promises it will be fixed soon! Absolute joke of a company L
-
Mr. Cold (@Javier_Cold_) reported@Ofcom @virginmedia sucks. 2 hours going in circles to cancel my package. They get away with it by exhausting you, going around and around, stalling the conversation until you say yes.
-
Jackie (@boomerangjf) reported@virginmedia your service is diabolical ! We are still experiencing intermittent/reduction in service after being told it would be working properly from 29 July. I assume you will be expecting a reduction in payment from me?
-
🏍️ TThe Smelly Hippie ✌️ (@HippieSmel48310) reported@virginmedia @bexholloway Your broadband is ******* garbage, 5th outage this week, absolute trash.
-
Scuba (@RomeoLabia) reportedVirgin Media (VM) "text stop to 30247" Me "stop" to 30247 VM - HA! here's some more marketing. VM - click here to unsubscribe from emails Me - clicks unsubscribe VM link is expired VM "text stop to 2394" me "stop" to 2394" VM - HA! don't be stupid, here's some more **** off
-
The Way We Will Be (@TheWayWeWillBe) reported@virginmedia so cross with you again today Not only is the broadband up and down as usual (but tests show fine) but you won’t allow me to log in from my Apple Mac and you won’t allow me to update parental controls Useless
-
Joseph Harvey (@Funkychicken65) reported@tim_longhurst A service with very channels and going down a lot, just like @virginmedia
-
Scarlett Shaw (@ScarlettShaw) reportedThe one touch switch for broadband might sound like a good idea but here’s something they don’t mention. When you leave @virginmedia , the email address you’ve had for 30 years is deleted. So you have to spend hours and hours changing login details on everything. It’s so stupid.
-
Jan (@geminicat7) reported🛜 I’m safely back from the dentist’s 😷 (only a 6 monthly check-up and all was well) but now our internet is down and not likely to be resolved until 17:30! @virginmedia 👋 I can’t afford to use up my mobile data chatting on social media so I’ll see you when / if it’s sorted!
-
Kate (@CallForCries) reported@virginmedia intermittent service for 24 hours.
