  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I want my tv service sorting. Just not good enough despite current situation. Second time this fault has occured and fed up of being told “working on it” get it fixed or I leave

  • KateBaucherel Kate Baucherel (@KateBaucherel) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s been going off intermittently for weeks. I’ve been blaming the devices in the house and changing every cable. You even sent me a new router. Every drop in service resets adapters and loses video calls.

  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @DrussSkilgannon Don’t know mate I didn’t play after what happened in the qualifier. It’s a problem between EA and Virgin Media apparently

  • LiamMDrake Drake (@LiamMDrake) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia are you going to fix this issue surrounding the routers blocking access to Fifa / EA sports

  • RaiderOnMixer |Jamie|MightyRaider (@RaiderOnMixer) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia is having problems nationwide by the looks of it , which means I stream tonight unless it is sorted by time I start my usual streams

  • rachsclarke rachel clarke (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia NHS workers on the front line speaking to a manager on the phone and your staff have hung up on me!!!! Need a call back immediately before my contract finishes as 12am tonight!!! What a way to treat your NHS workers in this pandemic #foul

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate how stretched you must be but I am a key worker and for over a week jow I an unable to contact you to sort out my tv problem. Hours on phone,via app and web still not solved. Can’t watch tv properly need it sorting pronto please.

  • Holgate69 Holgate69 (@Holgate69) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Here’s a thought. Those poor folk stick in hospital at the moment. No visitors allowed but still been charged #Extortionate amounts for #TVServices How about these companies waiving fees as a goodwill gesture during extremely difficult times #NHS #VirginMedia ##SkyTv

  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    After winning 37/37 in the Newcastle #ePL across the groups and the playoffs, I lose in the semi finals and won’t be at the grand final. Hard to describe the conditions I’ve just had to play in due to EA’s issue with Virgin Media, but this really has broken me

  • bettercallmal ˥ ∀ W (@bettercallmal) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    The country is on lockdown and Virgin Media has been going down all day. Would hate to work for customer service right now.

  • RobertTamkin94 Robert-Andrew Tamkin (@RobertTamkin94) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @RMT3N @virginmedia @FortniteGame @SkyUK I’m actually moaning about a service I pay for but I mean it’s not you pays for my bills I do, so piss off keyboard warrior 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 22269gadget Mike Crutchley (@22269gadget) reported

    @virginmedia Why the hell do I need to wait a week before I can have another wifi pod? Conflicting information from tech support & then cut off. Awful service

  • 098uyt_ Thomas (@098uyt_) reported

    @virginmedia My families WiFi has been off for the past 4 Hours today alone, for the second time today alone.. What's going on? We've been suffering from issues for the past week where the only signs of change is it just getting worse. What's the point in paying for a service we can't use?

  • ThistleTigger Joan Murdoch (@ThistleTigger) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia No, it's not fixed. Same thing happening now as it did yesterday. Alexa cannot connect to Internet, yet my phone can. Echo Dot has been checked and is fine so problem is with @virginmedia

  • neilspencercom Neil Spencer (@neilspencercom) reported

    @rwilliams1947 @virginmedia Had awful experiences with this lot, an American company with no connection to supposedly cuddly Branson. Rapacious.

  • paulstevenlewis Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported

    @virginmedia I followed your advice on here & made a complaint about you ending London Underground WiFI service. Response is an email advising you have “looked into” the issue & I need to book an engineer visit??!! It’s absurd & infuriating, like much of your customer service!

  • SJE1981 Steve81uk (@SJE1981) reported

    Hey @virginmedia it's just gone midnight and the internet has just gone down again? Dammit guys. I am streaming a movie from your services!

  • hoshisdior deobii♡ (@hoshisdior) reported

    @virginmedia we bought faster speed and like 5g data SIM card and now we pay £50+ a month which is stupid and it’s STILL ******* SLOW EVERYTIME WE CALL ITS TAkes so long which is understandable BUT the CUSTOMER SERVICE IS SO RUDE? Like 😭 THIS INDIAN LADY i remember her last name was Patel 😞

  • bIahajenjoyer allie (@bIahajenjoyer) reported

    IS VIRGIN MEDIA INTERNET DOWN AGAIN!? #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • BB71 Peter Vahl (@BB71) reported

    @IRodber @Jb_radley @virginmedia Ian, I'm in the Sutton area also & have absolutely zero Internet & phone after an engineer visit today. The service offered is shocking, and I have had constant problems since signing up in October.
