  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @bethanymiah_ I'll save you both some time there and tell you now that you will be able to make no difference whatsoever, the hubs have always been awful and it seems they have got worse since lockdown, maybe they can catch Covid too

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Have had this issue since I joined Virgin

  • 7Tazy Levi (@7Tazy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @Zyqlon @virginmedia WiFi down stairs

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @brfcsdotcom More than good enough, if you were virgin media I could have guessed at the issue and the fix

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @grimegran #Stayconnected the biggest mystery to all Virgin media customers at the moment is how to stay connect to the router and the broadband! Stop promoting ads when your customer service is currently unable to accepts fault reports, 8.5 weeks and counting!

  • DanielHill21 Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia need help

  • KatieDouglas93 𝓓𝓸𝓾𝓰𝓵𝓪𝓼 (@KatieDouglas93) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Imagine trying to enjoy a football with buffering every 2 minutes virgin media is ****

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Done, I'm now down about 360mbs from where my speed normally is, and just checked, yep can still crash my router using my laptop without trying

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia shock as broadband is down again. Yet you’ll still expect full payment from everyone.

  • Emrah48974877 Emrah (@Emrah48974877) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in ts10 area

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ironic you try and blame customers. It’s your service not my house or my equipment or how I’m using it.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @JohnnyDude1983 @virginmedia The 3rd engineer to visit told me what I need to do and also told me that Virgin Media wont tell me or others what they can do or what the issue is

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I have, many many times and it always comes back to same, yet I'm down about 80mbs this morning, I've restarted my router today already because I switched my laptop on (everytime), and I can also crash my router with 1 device almost at will

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I’m not going to waste time in doing that, I’ve worked in telecommunications, I know how your process works, I also know you’ll try and pass the book to customers before taking blame because the tiniest speck of dust can effect my WiFi signal. So it’s fine.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Tried already and you actually made it worse, I put up with for half a day and changed everything back to the better (although still poor and not near what I'm paying for) performance yet you still ask me to buy your tech support service lmfao

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Service back after a engineer visit last night, with another coming again today. After being with Virgin for years, the Tv and internet service these past 6 months has been poor, surely I should get a reduction on my bill.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia can you not save your internet outrages for mid week ffs? I hate being a customer.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @grimegran Im Going to keep replying to all this promoted ads until my internet is fixed, 8 weeks and counting! Terrible routers too, range is embarrassing to be honest and crashes under a pretty minimal load

  • timypeg Tim Pegden (@timypeg) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Help needed. Why won’t my Ethernet port on my power line adataper have a successful connection to my network switch? (Have virgin media hub) #networking #tplink #virginmedia #ukbroadband

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Is actually my whole street, I can sit and watch every bodies routers resetting and I assume they are having same speed issues as me

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • waynec40 Wayne (@waynec40) reported

    @virginmedia Yes was in connection with a complaint which was in connection with your extremely poor customer service as you call it. I’ve been waiting now about 11 weeks for Suki and Tin’s Managers to call after arranging a promised call back 😴

  • Smoggie20 Smoggie (@Smoggie20) reported

    @SkyCinema Can't believe how bad the movie line up is on sky cinema , just set it up through virgin and I can't even watch the paramount + through my virgin media showing sky cinema, won't be bothering again and just cancelled it !!!

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

  • maddiemcgowan maddiemcgowan (@maddiemcgowan) reported

    @virginmedia Oh, and the option to make a complaint by web chat (and I am within the opening hours) doesn’t exist. No link

  • atnori_ Antonio (@atnori_) reported

    @GaborPfalzer @virginmedia Good luck. Their customer service is an absolute sh*tshow.

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @atnori_ @virginmedia Yep, experienced just recently :D I am an extremely patient person… I properly lost it today 🙃 At least the damn thing is cancelled though.

  • Miss_SKM Sarah McMahon (@Miss_SKM) reported

    @virginmedia Hi 👋🏻 my wifi has been down all afternoon and the Virgin app is still showing a fix time of 6pm, where do I get a true update from? I’ve requested SMS updates but I haven’t received any. I’ve lost half a day’s work already so I need to know when this will be fixed

  • lisanewton1990 Lisa Newton (@lisanewton1990) reported

    @virginmedia do you actually have people on the phones that know what they are talking about? Everything I asked I got I think. I asked how long notice I needed to give to cancel my contract I got told £30?!!

  • matt18barnes Matt ‘Barnsey’ Barnes (@matt18barnes) reported

    @virginmedia It knows the network is there but won’t let devices join it! It’s not asking for passwords.

  • vlkaye Victoria Kaye (@vlkaye) reported

    @virginmedia I understand that but I was told it would continue and it did! I don't mind the cancellation but you should have given me a week to sort it out! Your reputation with most of my friends is awful anyway and I'm not surprised. You could at least let me have the emails I've missed!
