  • sharon_mulcahy sharon mulcahy (@sharon_mulcahy) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia what the hell is going on with the broadband today this is ridiculous no service all day!

  • AndreaAndymac andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No it wasn't. I want to do it when it's convenient for me not virgin media. Thanks for nothing..As well as expecting the customer to do all the work installing the equipment you making the decisions without consultation.Seriously thinking about my 14 day change of mind now.

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @dakotafiction @virginmedia Just want an eta of when this will be completed or resolved, can't even watch the firestick! It's obviously an issue looking at the amount of comments on Facebook.

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia It's working now. Just would have been good to have been informed and kept in the loop that there was an issue being worked on, the status page was useless, stating no issues!

  • WheezyRider44 Matt Greenfield-Westcott (@WheezyRider44) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Is your red button not working again?!?

  • AndreaAndymac andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia again I have to go through social media to contact your company. I need to speak with a human regarding your poor customer service

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

    Every single championship midweek fixtures, there’s always an issue with the red button. They either forget to turn the game on or instead they’ve now managed to put the wrong commentary on. Sort it out @virginmedia @SkyFootball. Wrong commentary on the Boro game

  • AndreaAndymac andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia any chance of speaking to a human regarding my television service

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @PandOminous @virginmedia Same here also TS10, no communication from @virginmedia as to whether it's down to the issues in Roseberry Square, and 3 to 4 network vans at the box, a car went in to it apparently. Even just an eta of when service will be restored would help!

  • SimonHolliday13 Simon (@SimonHolliday13) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately it's still not fixed. No TV and no Internet. Both keep dropping in and out intermittently. Which is better than zero service yesterday and I may finally finish that book on conscription I bought in Leeds earlier this year.

  • SiClayton Simon Clayton (@SiClayton) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Absolutely atrocious service AGAIN from @virginmedia - broadband, TV, telephone - all down and Tuesday is the earliest anybody can be bothered to come out - from one of the largest telecoms companies in the UK 😡😡😡

  • SiClayton Simon Clayton (@SiClayton) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Hi @02 @virginmedia has all the allocated of @peterkay_co_uk tickets been sold for today? Been waiting ages - staring at a white screen…. Communication would really help please?

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @dakotafiction Same here ts10, broadband is down, your status says no issues!

  • roytomo1970_roy Roy1986UTB (@roytomo1970_roy) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I've been on hold four 1hr 20 mins. I need to cancel my account. Please reply

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @dakotafiction And still website says no issues!!

  • citamo Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia No estimated fix time. Just tells me there is a problem in my area which is affecting my service. I already know that.

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @DanWalk32531219 @virginmedia Just checked at 2am, finally back up again, though poor speeds on a speed test, hopefully will improve by the morning 🤞

  • john_watson_ 𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    Our broadband in TS10 has been down all day, the status page says no issues, but self test says there is no connection @virginmedia - is this related to the issues at Roseberry Square, Redcar, and when will it be resolved. So far no communication from you!

  • citamo Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ok. I clicked on a link which advises that the problem will hopefully by fixed by 8.40 tonight. Hardly satisfactory but at least it’s better than knowing nothing. Thanks for your help.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PlumandPeanut Victoria Palumbo (@PlumandPeanut) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusting service. I am expecting a full refund for hours that I have not been able to use what I'm paying for. Appreciate there are faults but this is not something your customers should have to pay for

  • janice_bardwell Janice Bardwell (@janice_bardwell) reported

    @virginmedia Still most Channels and search facility down in North Wiltshire. Do we get a refund?

  • darksonphoto Ben Clarkson (@darksonphoto) reported

    Really do love paying @virginmedia stupid amounts of money a month to have no channels/services working. Daylight robbery springs to mind #virginmedia

  • gbtitan1 Geoff (@gbtitan1) reported

    @virginmedia - any idea when the issues in BR5/BR6 will be sorted?

  • roughcutjrd Richard Diamond (@roughcutjrd) reported

    @virginmedia TW1 - no channels. No option of raising the issue as the website is down at the same time. @Ofcom this is a joke right? How do we complain or log no service if they 404 their website

  • elizajtorres Eliza (@elizajtorres) reported

    @tomk0s @virginmedia Think before you tweet moron some people can’t get out due to ill health issues like my mom who as cancer and is disabled,

  • treborddot rob todd (@treborddot) reported

    @virginmedia So we will all get compensation for the failures then as the amount of £££ high three digit number I pay a month and I’m in credit I think I should get something back at least !!! Customer service has always been rubbish though

  • adamsjohn4557 John adams (@adamsjohn4557) reported

    @virginmedia Can we have another update for this outage #plymouth

  • 2222233f1 2222233f1 (@2222233f1) reported

    @HurcombeDavid @virginmedia they're working as hard as they can. You saying "hurry and fix it" wont do **** lol Touch some grass. Go outside and enjoy something else rather than sat infront of your TV.

  • AndreaRice54 Andi- vote for anyone BUT your current MP (@AndreaRice54) reported

    Isn’t it brilliant. Pay big money for aTV service, start watching series, then the expensive service fails. It’s like going to the cinema and leaving for half an hour in the middle. Absolute Disgrace #virginmedia @virginmedia
