  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get problem with my box sorted for 3 weeks now. Cuts out sound only. Still not sorted and all info followed. Gone beyond frustrated now simply unacceptable customer service I want to know where else I can complain to or where can get sorted

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

    @virginmedia No as I’m unable to get through 1. Because my signal is horrendous and 2. Because your lines are constantly closed. It seems easier for me to just go back to @EE as I need reliability, I’ve missed too many important phone calls since using VM.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Spoke too soon back in off again. Obviously nothing to do with modem as it’s new, same issues as before this time off for a fair amount of time now, is there an issue imnn in in TS8 location.

  • Bradley_19_ Bradley Osborne (@Bradley_19_) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @RunnerVi @virginmedia Use their email/live support found on their website.

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

    Had visit No 2 from Virgin, a couple of nice chaps,chased cables and removed cable still connected to the network that's not been used for years,new modem,new leads,new remote and the supervisor's number with a call back in a week, all good so far well done @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Tried this, 3 days to reply per message. Pathetic really, good customer service could compensate for poor phone service but I don’t get either. I get the VM sim for free with my package, I’d rather pay an extra £20 a month elsewhere to make sure I don’t miss important calls

  • wanaldinho wayne burnett (@wanaldinho) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia come on guys internet still not working in Middlesbrough

  • 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

  • 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 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Gone through apps,web,hours on phone even my nieces partner who works for you but system down. I am really getting annoyed

  • 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.

  • grahamdo Rev Graham Dobinson (@grahamdo) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia yet again virgin media is down.

  • lumpss Lisa Harvey (@lumpss) reported from Billingham, England

    Virgin media down 😡

  • Blenky64 John Blenkinsopp (@Blenky64) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve messaged that number twice - first time nearly three hours ago and still no acknowledgement. I think you need to sort this out or all your customers will leave come on - please let me know why there is no customer service response three hours is hopeless

  • rachyrooroo1 rachy roo roo (@rachyrooroo1) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia hi there is any of your call centres open n I’m not a happy customer

  • 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

    @EE Would be more than happy to rejoin EE even without my NHS discount if someone would actually call me back. Don’t think I can take another week of important missed calls from @virginmedia - yes I know they use the EE network but not the enhanced 4G+ side 🙄

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SteelCity_ENT Mr Miran Pankhania (@SteelCity_ENT) reported

    @virginmedia Have tried it. No issues. Engineer coming tomorrow. For some reason VM has changed my billing to a rate twice as high as I’ve signed up to when I switched. I’m a new customer and I’m already wanting to go back!

  • claire86488704 claire (@claire86488704) reported

    @virginmedia I now don’t have tv or internet for my children to watch or stream tv. I also work from home so as you can imagine it’s not ideal 👍 top quality customer service 🙄

  • louise_hainey Louise Hainey (@louise_hainey) reported

    @virginmedia Real I’m sorry I’m a customer who has changed all settings on my phone and reviewed them I have now taken 40 minutes out of my working day hoping that this may be the time that this account actually gets sorted and once again it’s not sorted possibly it may be something to think

  • jenna_070 Jenna (@jenna_070) reported

    @virginmedia Yesterday and last night, I need these service reconnected ASAP! Please help me??

  • baroquebird Baroque Bird (@baroquebird) reported

    @virginmedia myself and several others in my block have had our wifi cut in and out all morning. We've tried calling etc but we really need this to be looked at asap please - it's not an isolated issue, and we rely on it for work/school! Grateful for any help you can give us.

  • StaceyCoombes Coombes (@StaceyCoombes) reported

    @virginmedia Again… showing your shocking standards of customer service. Won’t deal with my complaint and would rather me take it higher. AND I have now just received an email stating with complaint is RESOLVED when it is NOT!!! No manager call as promised. Disgusting. @virginmedia

  • CancerNats Nathaniel (@CancerNats) reported

    @virginmedia Put me on the phone to an actual human so we can look to end our contract. Never had higher than 10mb when paying for 200mb fibre. Awful service and even worse customer service.

  • BurkosBox Burko (@BurkosBox) reported

    @virginmedia Just to let you know I've done this and had a response and engineer booked for Monday. If only calling Customer Service worked the same way - The disconnect between the two systems is jarring.

  • SteelCity_ENT Mr Miran Pankhania (@SteelCity_ENT) reported

    Dear @Plusnet. I was drawn by the bright lights and fast speeds of @virginmedia but I’ve barely started as a customer with them and I already have non-functioning TV and Broadband, and have twice received incorrect billing invoices from them!

  • graemeb8787 G (@graemeb8787) reported
