  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia I have had NO service at all for nearly three weeks. No that's not helpful

  • GraingerNorman NormanGrainger (@GraingerNorman) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Virgin media broadband the most shocking customer services ever. I made official complaint in January 2020 after six further calls still no response to resolve problem no one ever comes back to sort out problem# NEVER USE THEM YOU DONT WANT TO GO THROUGH WHAT I AM EXPERIANCING

  • P__TheLetter Stu (@P__TheLetter) reported from Bargoed, Wales

    @virginmedia Really need to speak with someone to order a replacement SIM card. Phone lines say customer service is closed & so does the local store phone number. Live chat is taking hours.

  • PeterFortune5 Peter Fortune (@PeterFortune5) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @cerysfurlong @virginmedia Wondered why my internet was down

  • katczeks K a t C z e k a j (@katczeks) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • murfilicious Chris Murphy (@murfilicious) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    my @virginmedia internet has been offline or intermittent now for almost 24 hours, yet the online service checker is reporting "no faults"... (Cardiff CF5 area) @DowndetectorUK

  • Andrew20061976 AJR PhotoArt (@Andrew20061976) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia hello I'm a Virgin Media Customer, am I able to block certain landline numbers calling me?

  • MHswans Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  • msrupertbear Lynne Reynolds (@msrupertbear) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @matyd88 @virginmedia Not great service at all.

  • KitaW Kita Williams (@KitaW) reported from Newport, Wales

  • DarronKnibbs Darron Knibbs (@DarronKnibbs) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • timerpool Tim Underhill (@timerpool) reported

    @virginmedia I was on watsapp with them and they told me there was a rise in my bill but the reason my bill went down in the 1st place was because I was going to leave Virgin because of the rise so really I shouldnt have had the rise.

  • satyen_gotecha Satyen Gotecha (@satyen_gotecha) reported

    @virginmedia I find your responses most unhelpful just like all your colleagues at customer service. If you are unable to help, then I am just going to complain to your regulators. This is beyond ridiculous that no one at VM is willing to take ownership and help a loyal customer out.

  • averagejo10 C.R (@averagejo10) reported

    @virginmedia hi got upgraded to your Hub 4 when are you going to update the app so it can be linked? I can scan for black spots and the WiFi keeps dropping off my laptop constantly since your HUB upgrade. Help. Thanks

  • skybluechick72 Sam D (@skybluechick72) reported from Rugby, England

    Any one else having @virginmedia broadband issues?

  • timerpool Tim Underhill (@timerpool) reported

    @virginmedia There was an advisor on here a few weeks ago called Steven that was able to see my account and helped me so I dont see why it cant be done again. When I talk to customer services they never help me and give me the run around.

  • ChadPFC CHAD (@ChadPFC) reported

    @virginmedia I have, it was on the forum that I heard about the Hub 5. My issue is I’m going to buy my own router, and set up a mesh system. This is to fix the poor coverage I’m getting from your hub. It would be good if I could get the Hub5, as I know other customers have got them now…

  • craig_webster Craig Webster (@craig_webster) reported

    @virginmedia Looking at sky I can get same tv package and faster broadband for same price. I’ve been a customer for 4 or 5 years and my loyalty discounts are due to expire

  • earlofmarl Nick P (@earlofmarl) reported

    @virginmedia down again. Two times in three days. Sort it out #virginmedia #noservice

  • 714lemmons bavitaz (@714lemmons) reported

    @londongirluk @SkyUK @virginmedia I will be too. Sky Q is awful. Terrible interface and the box is constantly disconnecting from the WiFi and it’s not the WIFI as no other device in the house does it. It’s the crappy Sky Q box. The old HD box was a million times better. More cheap crap labelled as “new”

  • saulpavage4 paul savage (@saulpavage4) reported

    @virginmedia hi got a volt package and 02 sim but sim not working how do I get a new one
