    @virginmedia I have a security issue with my router, I cannot login in or change password as somebody else is logged in. I have tried repeatedly over the last few days to contact you. We have 2 vulnerable adults in the house and need to sort this ASAP!

  • 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!!!!

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

    @Dom_Brown2406 @virginmedia Got through. They aim to fix the issue by 10:00

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

  • MARCUS1961UK @MARCUS1961UK (@MARCUS1961UK) reported from Cholsey, England

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

    @tonight__we_fly @virginmedia Exactly this 👆🏻... at least long serving customers are apparently all treated equally... with poor service 😭

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • jim_millen Jim Millen (@jim_millen) reported from Thatcham, England

    Went to @virginmedia online support last night - ran their automated test tool & identified a problem somewhere our end. Offered to request an engineer visit...

  • JGrenvillewood Joshua Grenville-Wood (@JGrenvillewood) reported from Basingstoke, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • david_kennerley David Ken - AKA Peps Jacket. 🐝💙 (@david_kennerley) reported

    @virginmedia I appreciate what you say re rising costs but wonder how you can justify an increase half way into the contract of a very loyal customer who negotiated the price at the outset. Regards David Kennerley AC No 538138302.

  • TomosWoolley Tomos Woolley (@TomosWoolley) reported

    @virginmedia You know that's a pretty ****** response. And a lot of issues around networks are often software based. I might advise not to insinuate that people are too stupid to understand. Maybe diagrams and crayons for them to colour in is more the level you believe people are at

  • davorg Dave Cross (@davorg) reported

    We're in the middle of a cost of living crisis. Inflation is running at about 11%. But that's not enough for @virginmedia who think they're justified in putting my monthly fees up by 25% :-) Just waiting for a reply on their WhatsApp so I can negotiate that down or cancel.

  • heathergreenin3 heather greening (@heathergreenin3) reported

    @virginmedia been on the phone with you over 2 hours. Been due refunds for over a year with promises every call I'll get it back and no luck. Ridiculous service and really need a call back from the UK retention team now as I've had no luck through the other offices. Ready to canx

  • javieraltman Javier Altman (@javieraltman) reported

    @virginmedia Absolutely useless help, mate. I'm trying to get WiFi Pods - what good is a wired test going to do me? At least take a moment and read the issue.

  • brimep1 brimep (@brimep1) reported

    @virginmedia No complaint raised but maybe I’ll have to. First call they said fraud team would call in 3/4 days. Second call (last wed) I had to give all details again despite having a case #, then they said they’d call within 48 hours. Why give a time frame?

  • JodieSh73490344 Jodie Shaw (@JodieSh73490344) reported

    @virginmedia my internet is extremely slow . You have been out before to boost this but nothing has changed!

  • GavlarMushing Gavin Mushing (@GavlarMushing) reported

    @virginmedia Let’s stop you there. I’ve been monitoring this since the 15th when our upgrade come through. How about Virgin tells me what the issues in the area are….. and the likelihood of them being fixed.

  • KerryDriscoll2 Kerry Driscoll (@KerryDriscoll2) reported

    @virginmedia Really poor. I provided my name and mobile number to the call handler in case we got cut off. It should be her calling me back, not the other way round. Yet more hassle and upset for the ‘customer’.

  • mrstoritorres Victoria Torrance (@mrstoritorres) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve now been chatting to Christopher via WhatsApp for 6 hours on & off with no resolution to offering a decent package at a decent price! Sort it out. 14 years a customer. Rotten deals to retain!
