    @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

  • 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

    @virginmedia we are without internet now for over a day. No text updates despite registering what can be done about such poor service

    @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

    @virginmedia Would you please give me a phone number so that I can talk to a human being about a technical problem rather than wasting my life listening to a automated telephone

    @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?

  • drewy__

  • 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.

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

  • Loafite

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TrippingMonke
    TrippingMonke (@TrippingMonke) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia sue for breach of contract as they do not provide you a service ?

  • SteveHilditch
    Steve Hilditch (@SteveHilditch) reported

    Well done virginmedia. ‘Intermittent signal in your area’ during the penalty shoot out of the champions league final. Missed most of it. Not impressed.

  • Nasher6328
    Mr Nash (@Nasher6328) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia Under UK law (primarily the Consumer Rights Act 2015), broadband services must be provided with reasonable care and skill and be of satisfactory quality. A complete outage lasting 7 weeks is almost certainly a breach, giving you the right to end the contract and seek a remedy (like cancellation without penalty or a refund for the affected period). Virgin Media participates in Ofcom's automatic compensation scheme for total loss of service (no internet at all via wired connection). You should already be getting ~£10.34 per day automatically after the first 2 full working days of reporting the fault. This doesn't directly let you cancel penalty-free, but it supports your case.

  • CryptoPoli
    Poli 🤌 (@CryptoPoli) reported

    @virginmedia It's now almost 1 full month worth of a total loss of internet service and another failed engineer visit. This is completely unacceptable, I can't get any answers from your customer service team on when this will be resolved and your engineers never call!!! @virginmedia

  • JonnieBoyRacer
    Jonnie (@JonnieBoyRacer) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia That can’t be right. Send a letter complaining the contract has been frustrated by the lack of service

  • Conquistadur
    RR (@Conquistadur) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia Just leave them they'll never get the money of you anyhow. Sign up with a better and be done with them. Seven weeks is diabolical to be waiting

  • DrBaalt
    ♛ 𝔹𝕒𝕒𝕝𝕥 (@DrBaalt) reported

    @footballontnt What’s the deal with TNT Sports and Virgin media and the HBO app. Signed up. But the app doesn’t allow access. And for that reason I’ll be gone in 30 days. This time forever. Such a ridiculous solution. Doesn’t work. So it’s gone and so is my business. Forever.

    Dave Banks (@DaveJBanks) reported

    @virginmedia what's the problem and how long is the fix likely to take please? (LE8)

  • Wizz57058652
    Wizz (@Wizz57058652) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia ISP's have to fix it within 30 days or you can leave your contract without the early penalty. @Ofcom

    @virginmedia My tv screen has message saying Network out of range days of no service for hour upon hour
