    @TheHammer180 @virginmedia Best thing to do is give your 30 days notice to cancel and they will call you directly with an offer! Happened to me twice now!

  • SharonJukes SBJ💙 (@SharonJukes) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Two days have now passed and they have heard nothing. They have no phone or internet and Dad is 80. Please can someone contact me and I will provide further details by DM. This is poor service for what you class as a vulnerable age group. I have tried to call you #virginmedia

  • princessandtoad Lady Gray (@princessandtoad) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @StaffordTownUK @virginmedia It’s virgin media..... same reason I left..... my speed was awful

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Why cant someone just ring me so I can actually explain what the problem is. When I try and light in it does not recognize my mothers maiden name and I'm sure I have got that right so then I cant get any further

  • iMeyrick Meyrick (@iMeyrick) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @zebadee1985 @virginmedia Virgin Media, fastest speeds but slowest customer service. It’s a massive shame, it really lets them down.

  • richiechuff Richie Knight (@richiechuff) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia You don’t see chuff all in stoke because of how **** your service as become constant buffering issues now for months How do we claim refunds for loss of service

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to sort out the issue off my password not working and the internet dropping out for over a week. I am getting passed around in circles. Please can you tell me how much notice I need give to leave and also give me an email for complaints please

  • paramattharri84 Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia No! I'm not a customer its @KezMH who you need to apologise to. Seemingly your lack of ability to even read this thread properly emphasises your lack of ability to provide acceptable customer service

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

  • sophiebridgett Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Still terrible. I've followed the instructions once signed in online however consistently dipping. :(

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Sorry doesn't fix the problem

  • beth_emma_ Beth Emma (@beth_emma_) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @DUCKmagstoke When will people learn that virgin media it terrible compared to sky 🤔

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia It might be best if you send a DM - we had a phone call from people who said they were virgin support. We have a phone number but the call felt wrong

  • jamesjohara James O'Hara (@jamesjohara) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia do any of your technical support staff have the first clue what they’re on about?

  • sophiebridgett Sophie Bridgett (@sophiebridgett) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia terrible internet this past 2 weeks!! Consistenly dropping 😫😫

  • cajriley51 Jacqui Riley (@cajriley51) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  • paramattharri84 Matt Harrison (@paramattharri84) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @KezMH @virginmedia The hardest part of the problem is actually gettong to speak to someone

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • sorafell Stephen Fell (@sorafell) reported

    @virginmedia It's due to a complaint with your company's service and poor connection in the area. I've spoken to so many different people, 1 of which hung up on me out of the blue and this issue still isn't resolved

  • DavidoffFilms Davidoff Productions (@DavidoffFilms) reported

    @virginmedia It came back up 30 mins later, not sure what the issue was but when I restarted the router I saw Green lights, one was the Wi-Fi sign and the other just below it was flashing I think the sign looked rectangular

  • iotucker アダムです '¯\_(ツ)_/¯' 🇬🇧↔️🇯🇵 💙🇺🇦 (@iotucker) reported

    @virginmedia can't recall receiving any correspondence for today's planned outage, was anything sent out?

  • TrishaPopples Trish 🐾🌻🥧 (@TrishaPopples) reported

    @BBCNews I've asked @virginmedia & was told they didn't do it. I'll ask again & if they won't help I'll go to someone who will. Surely better to have customers on lower packages than leaving completely.

  • halobabeee Hazel (@halobabeee) reported

    @virginmedia Appreciate that, but having days at a time with no service and paying the extortionate amounts we do… just isn’t good enough. No compensation unless we go online to report it and only after a certain amount of time… it’s a bit sneaky and underhand, (1/2)

  • pangolinogram James T (@pangolinogram) reported

    @virginmedia I actually logged it over a week ago so you'd think something would be there by now. Let's not go down the 'is it the browser' route. We know it's not that.

  • gillykc gillian casey (@gillykc) reported

    @virginmedia came off the phone in tears after trying to sort out money you owe my mother who has had to go into a care home, appalling service from Andy and as a company you should be ashamed of yourselves

  • IanMarsdenGB Ian Marsden PLY (@IanMarsdenGB) reported

    @virginmedia Might be issues but without WiFi not able to open any pages etc as only got 1 bar and still not opening

  • anarki anarki (@anarki) reported

    also virgin media very helpfully use these standard colour codes on the modem LED to indicate if your internet is working: red - very good all great green - really bad internet is down as we all know these are the universally agreed on colour codes for good and bad

  • nicmulvaney Nic Mulvaney (@nicmulvaney) reported

    @virginmedia 9am is the worst time to do engineering work. I have no internet in BA11. How are we meant to work?!
