    @virginmedia better have a good explanation for this but likely this will never be answered and all my years of bills and loyalty mean absolutely sod all. @bt_uk and @SkyHelpTeam Any good deals on broadband? And can you promise you wont vandalise my home & connection randomly?

  • littlekatyb Katy Blay (@littlekatyb) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi! Our landline is being switched over to fibre on the 4th October, however our landline and WiFi hub are not on the same floor so we cannot connect them. Help please!

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia @joelycollinsx Hilarious. You get a link after ringing the number but the website is down

  • gooner64 arsenal (@gooner64) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia I would really appreciate a phone call from yourselves to resolve an issue that is becoming frustrating to which my wife can not continue to work from home 😡😡

  • CathyTVNews Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, England

    What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England

    @virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia can you help? We’ve been struggling with internet for last 3 weeks. Now dropping on daily basis and devices not connecting. Spent 1.5hrs talking on Thurs... was promised a call back yesterday but received nothing and still major issues. Can someone pls call?

  • SimonMiller52 Simon Miller (@SimonMiller52) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

  • pilot_paul Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ianmills99 @virginmedia No internet in RG21 either. Cannot even get on to the service page on my mobile

  • TropicKarenB Total Tropic Karen 🌴 (@TropicKarenB) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia No broadband service in RG14 and your service status checker isn't working. Is there a know issue? #virginmedia

  • timofnewbury Tim Thomas 🍻🇪🇺🔶 I ❤️ NHS (@timofnewbury) reported from Newbury, England

    Virgin broadband up and down like a yo yo in Newbury RG14 6 @virginmedia

  • skearney7 Stuart Kearney (@skearney7) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

  • KieranDavey1 Kieran Davey (@KieranDavey1) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Hi - I'm in Rg22 and Internet has been down since about 11am - do you have an eta for when this will be fixed? Thanks

  • richcon98 Richard Conway (@richcon98) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

  • AfroChuck87 ¥ (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    Just spent 40 minutes being messed around with from @virginmedia to be then hung up on. Your customer service is atrocious!!!

  • thebiggayreview The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, England

    WiFi went down in the middle of watching Halloween Ends. 4G signal also unresponsive. Stuck on very slow 4G. Virgin Media say it’s possibly a hardware fault and want to send someone Monday. No. I’m not waiting 72 hours with no internet. I’ll implode.

  • AfroChuck87 Dan 🇪🇺 #TitanUp (@AfroChuck87) reported from Basingstoke, England

    . Why have you hung up on be after being on hold after 40 minutes. Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed. @virginmedia

  • MatildaDr Joanne Wells (@MatildaDr) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • LydiaLN1 Lydia Sampson (@LydiaLN1) reported

    @virginmedia It says broadband is down only after I run the test. I must have run the test a dozen times. My neighbours are also struggling.

  • JamesFromLeeds James Scholey (@JamesFromLeeds) reported

    @Joshoewaa @virginmedia Lame. Think it was a bot. Why not do a feature on this issue?

  • djn2911 Obi-Dan (@djn2911) reported

    @virginmedia You have no pods in stock and I’m not on the Oomph package. I rely on my wifi covering the whole house and I already pay a lot of money for your services and have done for nearly 4 years. The fact you cannot provide me the service and want to charge me extra is not really fair.

  • Chloe_coy_ Chloe coy (@Chloe_coy_) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia @Chloe_Co I have checked the service status and it’s showing no faults but we have only a few minutes of connection before it goes off!

  • samroper13 Wendie Love (@samroper13) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, Its on the help forum. I can't complain online as I can't sign into my account. I will have to write a letter to get this resolved? It's 2021! So even more time spent before it gets fixed. Appalling. All I want is for someone to call me senior enough to solve the problem!

  • 5xiqa 5aiqa (@5xiqa) reported

    @virginmedia i did not miss the previous delivery- it never came, but i checked with my neighbours too i just don't get what it's taken so many weeks to just get this sorted 😩

  • samroper13 Wendie Love (@samroper13) reported

    @virginmedia We need to find another way to sort this out then don't we. Signing up for a forum and getting a 'Hello' badge and no guarantee of a reply is really not solving my problem is it? You say you can't arrange call backs- your team say they can't escalate problems, who can help?

  • tiwababyy TIWA (@tiwababyy) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have done this multiple times throughout the day but the signal continues to drop

  • scottch93643824 scott chegg (@scottch93643824) reported

    @virginmedia my service has now been two days. An engineer was due to come this morning then cancelled. Now I can’t get through. I have lost all three services. What is happening

  • Beastial_Maggot Robert LCFC Grace (@Beastial_Maggot) reported

    @virginmedia We have received a txt back asking which service we would like to talk about but it’s none of those
