  • suziealderton #hellomynameisSuzie (@suziealderton) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia absolutely rubbish service since we left @skytv and went over to you. Tv/broadband/phone off again on the whole of our estate-not much help to people working from home. Wont be renewing our contract with you, and will be checking how soon we can cancel!

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Cracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks! And you can book a slot to fix it Why not invest your advertising budget in stopping it from breaking? Not to be smug but (touch wood) @virginmedia has never conked out!

  • lamsom Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the phone, I can travel to different areas and get 4 bars on my phone and it works no problem, the problem is in the area I live.The reception always used to be fine but for quite some time now it’s been awful, I currently have one bar.

  • bazza_bee78 🚩Bazza B 🏴 (@bazza_bee78) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia No mention of any temporary resolutions or any form of compensation for the loss of service

  • Shigufta1 Shigufta khan (@Shigufta1) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Problems with my TV very frustrating not being able to speak to anyone. For a communication provider the service being offered is not acceptable

  • courtsthomasx 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐚 (@courtsthomasx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia My Broadband has been down for quite a few days now. I have no received any text updates and would like to speak to somebody with regards to down time and to get an ETA of when it should be back up and running.

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    You've out done yourselves today @virginmedia It's usually poor but your broadband today has been on a completely different level of poor

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Came back on early hours this morning but it's been awful for a while, same as the rest of my family I'll be leaving without a cancellation fee tomorrow

  • bazza_bee78 🚩Bazza B 🏴 (@bazza_bee78) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Waiting on an engineer now, none available until Saturday pm. That will be over 3 days without any service.

  • Sam_yates4 Sam Yates (@Sam_yates4) reported from Old Laund Booth, England

    @neilayates @virginmedia I believe they were the "3rd Party" that also caused the Microsoft 365 outage which killed our session yesterday!

  • ianlumsden Ian Lumsden (@ianlumsden) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to customer service for the past two days, the call is usually immediately rejected or I am told the call waiting time is an hour. I have had enough and as soon as I get through I am cancelling my account. 😡

  • matt_stanny Matthew Stansfield (@matt_stanny) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp any chance you can sort the internet issues in BB11, it’s a nightmare at the moment!

  • cheftonymulgrew Tony Mulgrew (@cheftonymulgrew) reported from Ripponden, England

    @SheilaDillon @virginmedia Vodafone not much better waited 6 weeks to have my issue sorted. Only interested in profit not the customers

  • lamsom Dave Gracey (@lamsom) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Your mobile network is crap & your customer service is just as bad.

  • matt_stanny Matthew Stansfield (@matt_stanny) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia It says not on there but when I call the support number there is a recorded message saying there is an issue and engineers are working on it.....been same all week.

    @virginmedia because you are providing a service that doesn't work, i presume i can leave without a fee

  • gsouthy gsouthy_25 🏆 LIVERPOOL FC 👊🏼 (@gsouthy) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia How are things?? Footpath left full of mud. Having to clean footwear off or remove before coming into the house! The whole length of the footpath in front of the houses where your workers have been is a disgrace. Not even rain has washed it clean!! Terrible standard of work! 😤

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ThatsSapphire Matt Favero (@ThatsSapphire) reported

    @virginmedia connection being unstable and dropping constantly in London n15. No upload speeds at all even (0.1 to 0.4mbps when lucky, speed tests fail most of the times). Been ongoing for a couple days. Any problems in the area?

  • typing_chimp Stephen 🐵⌨️ (@typing_chimp) reported

    Once again @virginmedia's miserable excuse of a network is constantly dropping connection, right at a time when people need stable connections the most. Pathetic service

  • MattBennett93 Matt Bennett (@MattBennett93) reported

    @virginmedia putting up their prices and now their cancellation team are not answering the phone! 51 minutes playing the same 4 songs. I had to put the phone down. If they don't answer tomorrow I'll just tell me bank to cancel the direct debit and go with BT. #virginmedia #joke

  • AndreaYankah Andrea Yankah (@AndreaYankah) reported

    @virginmedia internet keeps falling off, my mobile phone keeps loosing signal for hours sometimes days at a time and you are increasing my bill? Nah

  • larryleek70 Paul (@larryleek70) reported

    @virginmedia can’t cancel broadband. Impossible to get through to customer services #virginmediaprisoner

  • tomm2611 Tomm Child (@tomm2611) reported

    @virginmedia No such luck. Customer care seems to be impossible to get a hold of and not interested in resolving my complaint. Instead of wasting more of my time trying to call, I've instead put in formal complaints to Ofcom and CISAS.

  • LucyT_1 Luce (@LucyT_1) reported

    @GeorgiaCoyne @virginmedia The area I’m in is terrible for the speed and I need a good one for work🙄 going to ring them and be a karen

  • BigJackBrass Jon Hancock (@BigJackBrass) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to call about my contract. 45 minutes on the phone, eventually answered and given the number for retentions: a recorded message at that number says we're busy, call later. How am I supposed to cancel or change my contract if I can never get through to you?

  • zhel_weekly Zee Daily (@zhel_weekly) reported

    Virgin media made money during this pandemic, but they will still raise their prices because they are 'constantly investing in our network'. In the last 4-5 years, they raised their prices numerous times. I started at £25, the same bill is now £45. Unacceptable #virginmedia

  • ovengloves72 Neil Peel (@ovengloves72) reported

    @virginmedia at a time when your call centres are overloaded with calls, why do you make it so damn difficult to contact you? For a communications company it seems to be something you haven't heard of. All I want is to send you a sodding email but that's too difficult for you
