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

    @AhDeluxe @virginmedia Was it the 10 minute off or the 4/5 hour cut? Never anything inbetween in my experience

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

    @virginmedia Let me ask, so you know how long the line is to speak to technical support? Have you tried using the text service and online chat? I have all at the same time and after 8 days I still hadn't spoke with anyone, you are unable to support your services

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I access some support on here?

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

    @virginmedia I rang after the email and they assured me they have applied a discount and would stay the same price for my contract. I agreed a fix price and if that's not what I got then I have been lied too, which is a miss sale and the ombudsman will be contacted, again.

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲Santa Doom🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    . @NOWTV @nowtvhelp any idea on how to stop the intermittent blue screen when playing back any on demand video or TV channels? Got an older now TV smart box. It's wired connection into a 300mbps virgin media hub so no issues.on playback speed.

  • gaussey 𝗠𝙞𝖼𝗵𝖺𝙚𝗅 𓆤 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No, everything is fine thanks, the outage only lasted two hours.

  • BradleyStaunch Bradley Staunch (@BradleyStaunch) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Virgin media internet is good, EVERY SINGLE other thing about them is ******* shite. Never understand the ***** on the phone takes, 3 hours to get through, website always down, make a payment page been broke for 5 years. ******* ****

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia hi, any help on a non responsive remote to vbox? It is flashing red when I press buttons bit nothing happening on box. Only started happening tonight

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

    @virginmedia Yes I'm aware, they have just hung up on me again after an hour without even a real person, 6 times now and thats why I was asking for @richardbranson number, your sales guys don't seem to have any issues calling me though #JustSaying

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia Both, i currently have to work from home and my internet crashes all the time. i can’t get a signal in my bedroom which is the room directly above the box

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

    Not a lover of call centres and thought that they didn't really offer any customer service of any real value, then you have the likes of @virginmedia and @Hermesparcels that seem to want to upset customers. That said, credit to @NespressoUK, was blown away with your service

  • 147mick Michael White (@147mick) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yes problems with wired devices as well, I have to turn the hub off then on again all the time even if I'm in the same room.

  • GazzaG1 Gary Ayre (@GazzaG1) reported from Blackhall Colliery, England

    @virginmedia WiFi signal from hub3 is unreliable and I am by only in a1 bedroom bungalow, I never use the tvbox as all channels are rubbish and my mobile signal is disgraceful-virgin is worse decision i have ever made

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia i was asked to upgrade as a valued customer, since upgrading my broadband is terrible we are all using 4g at home as connection is so poor. i have done all testing as directed from comp voice on phone and link sent to mobile. i pay for 3 virgin mobiles one now has no data

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

    @virginmedia can you advise the next time I will be able to receive your broadband for a period of 24 hours or more without it going down? #StayConnected #IfYouCan

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

    @virginmedia No errors, never is, yet everyday at least once my net goes off, normally for 10 minutes sometimes for up to 4 or 5 hours, cant remember last time I made it 24 hours with no down time

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

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

    @NathHawkeswood @virginmedia Twitter cant help, phoning cant speak to anyone, text service in an endless loop, chat service online is also an endless loop I need to speak with line faults and they aren't even an option on the automated phone service so I'm really screwed

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

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

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

    @KEESH1984 @virginmedia 8 days of that, we not heard fro you for a while youbstill need to speak to someone? OK let's start the whole thing again Chuffing useless, what they offer is not customer service its hope it fixes itself before anyone notices or leaves

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • rixiefps rixie (@rixiefps) reported

    @WACKOFPS @virginmedia If you manage to get on a line with one of them, it's pointless anyways cause the people on the other side never understand the issue and they always try exactly the same things according to the script. The only way to fix problems with virgin is forcing them to send a technician

  • g_riches riches_G (@g_riches) reported

    @virginmedia Laughable again, used the service and agent left no notes on the system or actions what they said they would do. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 (sarcastic clapping)

  • CryptoDan2k CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported

    @virginmedia Not really, I'm always on hold.for ages? Why is it the hard done by customer who does all the chasing. To top it off Mrs is working from home, internet went off again and.the tech team refused.ti let her log a fault even though she has username password and your team could seeit!

  • McBryony B McFarland (@McBryony) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve spent the last hour on the phone to your customer services and every time I get transferred to someone else it cuts me off. I’m trying to leave because of the poor service- how do I do this?

  • ChristianSurfer Phil Williams (@ChristianSurfer) reported from Nailsea, England

    @richardbranson are you anything to do with @virginmedia ? If so please can you get someone to finally do something they promise. 15 hours on phone, promised credits, nothing arrives, overcharge £50 p/month & promised of a call back & nothing 22 years a customer, 6 weeks waiting

  • happyyellowgoth Adam Coleman (@happyyellowgoth) reported

    @virginmedia I've received automated replies with reference numbers, but nothing else and no sign whatsoever how to actually contact VM to ask about this. I have tried to respect your request to contact only if urgent or vulnerable, but I am paying for a service I am not receiving that i need

  • emma_of_ryan Emma (@emma_of_ryan) reported

    If someone from @VodafoneIreland responds to this thread by asking me to DM them when they have ALL MY DETAILS ABOUT THIS ALREADY I think I might have a stroke. It’s not rocket science. I am not a vodafone customer. I am a Virgin Media customer. STOP TEXTING ME @DPCIreland

  • KayeHolland Kaye Holland (@KayeHolland) reported

    @virginmedia I do - but it never reports your midnight break down

  • happyyellowgoth Adam Coleman (@happyyellowgoth) reported

    @virginmedia I have completed 2 customer complaint forms online, neither has been responded too. I tried to speak to someone online today, but they were useless then I tried to telephone and that didn't work either. I previously spoke to someone, problem not resolved.

  • TomJBeasley Tom Beasley (@TomJBeasley) reported

    Thrilled that @virginmedia are taking such swift action on the fact our phone number is seemingly being used by spammers. They "escalated" the problem to another team, who hung up the call, forcing us back to square one and a long wait on hold. 🙃🙃🙃
