    @virginmedia Yes I’ve checked it each time it has occurred and there’s no problem showing, I’ve also restarted and rebooted numerous times over the last couple of days and it still intermittently just stops working.

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia you know when a customer makes a complaint (twice) and you say that the customer will receive a phone call within 24-48hrs. Is this true or do you just make it up as you go along? Thanks.

  • Jess_L_Oliver Jessica Oliver (@Jess_L_Oliver) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now got an “intermittent signal issue” message

  • DeanCondliffe dean condliffe 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia John, please check my file. I’ve called several times, to be told somebody will contact you regarding your complaint. I ask to speak to a manger I’m told, none available. Appreciate this is not your fault buts it’s an utter **** show. I’ll let @Ofcom take the lead from here.

  • Kate223110 KateCap ❤️ (@Kate223110) reported from High Offley, England

    And the award for the worst internet service, connection and customer service goes to @virginmedia #whatajoke

  • martialartnerd Wayne Thomas (@martialartnerd) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia absolutely shocking treatment when trying to sort an upgrade out, asked to speak to the manager was told I can't sniggered at and the phone was then put down... we have three contracts Internet and tv with you safe to say we won't be renewing

  • J9PVFC J9PVFC (@J9PVFC) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

  • IXL Ian Fraser (@IXL) reported from Keele, England

    Dear @virginmedia. I’d like to cancel my account. I’ve called 4 times this afternoon, put on hold for ages and been disconnected each time. Why are you making it so hard?

  • Laaana_bananaaa 🍃Lana Banana🍂 (@Laaana_bananaaa) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    How ******** can Virgin Media say it's too expensive to connect us with WiFi in this area and would take them years to earn it back, when other people in the smae street have it!!??? 🙃😠

  • sh33ran7 Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I have yes and there is no problem detected. This has been happening for 3 days now.

  • sh33ran7 Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia what is happening with your broadband?? I don’t pay stupid amounts of money each month for it not to work!!!!!

  • swoolly1970 Steve woolliscroft (@swoolly1970) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to watch @stokecity , I pay you good/ hard earned money for your service and this is what you give #shocking

  • ChrisLaws1 Chris Laws (@ChrisLaws1) reported from Cheadle, England

    @virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments

  • sh33ran7 Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    Get priority tickets for Peter Kay virgin tell me as I’m a customer, yet I can’t even get on the O2 priority app. Sort it out @virginmedia @O2

  • dazholdcroft1 Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @TerryBossons @virginmedia Since Covid no body answers phones any more crazy, shocking though that is @TerryBossons really bad costumer service and lack of information I had this with Sky very similar 2 very poor service providers with little thought of what’s going on in todays climate

  • MattBennett93 Matt Bennett (@MattBennett93) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Well do you not think if I'm only getting a service for 80% of the time, I should only be paying 80% of the bill?

  • andytideswell Cook Pass Babtridge (@andytideswell) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia absolutely awful service. So much for looking after elderly and vulnerable customers. Trying to sell services that are not needed or wanted.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • hairybarsteward James Crossland (@hairybarsteward) reported

    @virginmedia ... over £240 on a service that hasn't been installed yet. I was told to return equipment I don't have and when I questioned this I was simply answered with "Yes", followed by silence. I also asked why, when I was within my cooling off period (continued 6)

  • hairybarsteward James Crossland (@hairybarsteward) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately the characters overlapped, often with the same sequences, however it was almost always the retentions team that had problems with the password. None of the contracts were right so I wasn't agreeing to any of those. I can assure you that calls were dropped 3 times.

  • Marcussharp10 Marcus sharp (@Marcussharp10) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @bamford_tony @virginmedia mine always going down worst Internet provider going

  • jinxs67 **** Dixon (@jinxs67) reported

    @virginmedia Called but regrettably I have had to cancel as the price is too high and couldn’t remove elements of my package either to get cheaper. Sad that it comes to that but new customers must mean more to you than existing with the offers they get

  • teodiomio teo (@teodiomio) reported

    @virginmedia No, as the reminder relates to a password that for some reason doesn't work. We've tried that.

  • Sheedyss Steve (@Sheedyss) reported

    @virginmedia why do I have to call you on 28th January to terminate your services on 28th February? I’m giving more notice than I need to. Your call centre outside the UK made a mess of the termination. Sort it!

  • Sheedyss Steve (@Sheedyss) reported

    @virginmedia your online customer service is very poor 07533 051809 is not fit for purpose. Here’s a crazy thought - TALK to your customers

  • GavinHannon56 Gavin Hannon (@GavinHannon56) reported

    I have the volt deal. So I also now have o2 too. They have being atrocious too. Loss of signal tonnes of times. Customer service between @O2 & @virginmedia have being awful. I only moved from @sky due to getting a better deal from you’s but honesty I never had a problem with sky

  • SherwoodBerrid1 Nom Berridge & Sherwood Wards (@SherwoodBerrid1) reported

    @bamford_tony @virginmedia Yep tried virgin after being with sky for 17 years, never again

  • DESSIOG Dessi OG (@DESSIOG) reported

    @virginmedia @ColeColey78 Clean example of poor customer service here
