Simon Manning 🇪🇺 #FBPE (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace
-
jimmy (@jimmysteamboat) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Can you confirm if service is down in the M4 Manchester postcode? Us and Neighbours wifi not working when we are WFH!
-
Michael Clark (@michaelclark09) reported from Sale, England@Shredda @virginmedia Oh damn, that's peak. Might just be a coincidence then 🤔
-
Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported from Salford, EnglandIs anyone experiencing a Virgin Media outage in M6 currently? Fibre Broadband is struggling to connect
-
Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!
-
Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England@virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this
-
officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England@MartinSLewis I'm not sure if you can help me but here goes , in August I ended my contract with @virginmedia & to cut a long story short they still owe me £87 .+ They sent me a cheque in my maiden name so I returned it with a second copy of my marriage cert same as in 2015 1.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?
-
Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, EnglandNot another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia
-
Phoebe (@TTPhoebe) reported from Manchester, EnglandAnyone available at @virginmedia please? Your website is shocking for trying to get in touch with customer services / live chat. Thanks
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.
-
Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported from Salford, England@LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?
-
Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England@virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.
-
Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, EnglandBeen on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.
-
johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

-
CC (@TheRISCHAUS) reportedIn the bordering 10 years of having @virginmedia broadband I have never experienced over 5 days of broken internet. In the time I have decided to play GTA online. The internet had the audacity to drop DURING A HEIST FINALE. Diabolical.
-
sarah (@Mears1Sarah) reported@DAZNBoxing Not working in @virginmedia

Cathrine Robinson (@Cathrin56707799) reported@virginmedia hi I have not received the new wi Fi hub but received a message that the existing hub will stop working can you help please
-
andy spinoza (@andyspin) reported@virginmedia Hi we’ve been plagued by problems since you introduced the new box /software. Now it’s not showing ANY Tv! Totally shocking service. been waiting for 40 mins on the phone line. Your diagnostics show no issues but we have NO Tv- our lives taken over rebooting. Rubbish
-
Nick Morris (@nickjmorris_3) reported@virginmedia no tv or broadband all day in WD5 area. Called customer services who told us it would be fixed at 2:30am. That’s not good enough. Please can someone contact us to let us know how to get online sooner?
-
David Green (@Daveboy1972) reported@CheekyVic @virginmedia sky just as bad i had fault on broadband did all tests phoned number spoke and screamed at 4 robots before i got a human who was more worried about selling me a mobile
-
Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported@virginmedia @hockeybee Taking too long to sort this issue. Listen to your Technician who said a new Box is required. I may be 82 but you will not come out of this good. Paddy Sweeney
-
Richard D G Cox (rcox.bsky.social) (@RDG_C) reported@virginmedia If you talk to your legal department they can explain to you the significance of an “address for service”. It’s a physical address, not a link. By continuing prevarication you are exposing your employer to ridicule - and in plain sight. I ask again - please answer the question.

Sean Austin 316 (@seanaustin1985) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia I worked for VM as a tech and I wasnt one of them but it was common practice by some rltwchs to feather knock so they could put the job off and blame the customer for not being in..
