Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?
-
Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers
-
Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G
-
Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England@virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today
-
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!!
-
Nathan Talbot (@nathantalbot) reported from Urmston, England(Test) Is anyone experiencing a virgin media Internet outage in M6?
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia You’re not understanding. I do contact when the issue is happening, your advisor then fixes it, but it then happens again within 24 hours. I need a ‘once and for all’ fix. Not this whack a mole approach you’ve had so far.
-
Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, EnglandHi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?
-
Stephen Mackenzie (@StevomacMUFC) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England@virginmedia Hi, I’m trying to raise a complaint online but I’m not receiving any acknowledgment. Is there another way I can raise my complaint? Thanks
-
Emily (@ErHes1997) reported from Timperley, EnglandHow can @virginmedia say "yes there's a problem in your area, we expect it to be fixed on Wednesday"... 5 days is a joke when you'll never see that money returned to you for lack of service provided
-
GLENN (@gbmcfc) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Well you find I'm cancelling my contract with yourselves, hope you go bust, your customer service team is a shambolic embarrasment. Loyalty works both ways.
-
Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭
-
Richard Ashton 💙🇺🇦 (@Rik_Ashton) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England@SkyUK My Sky package is slowly edging up. Some new customer deals from a couple of years ago have worsened discounts but... I'm still around £30 a month better off than when I was with Virgin Media. Never going back.

Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia are you down again in M20? Hub flashing red again.
-
SLT4K 👨🏻💻 🇬🇧 (@Slt4K) reported from Urmston, England@virginmedia / Super disappointed after calling to renew my contract and as an existing customer you can’t offer anything half as good as a new customer. Shocking customer retention strategy 🤯
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician
-
Martyn The Driver (@martyn_driver) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia after 26 years as a loyal cable customer it is time to say goodbye. It would seem that loyalty is not rewarded, and you don't want low use customers
-
Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?
-
Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀
-
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

ThatGoku (@ThatFoxGoku) reportedVirgin Media down again in my area. Was looking forward to streaming today. Good job it’s not my livelihood. Imagine being a big streamer earning thousands a day and this happens. That’d be a big compensation bill going to #virginmedia
-
Marce The Moose (@Marcethemoose) reported@virginmedia no broadband. Customer service says no engineer can do until Monday but we work from home. Also no email confirmation of appt on Monday. Are they even booked?
-
stevefairclough (@stevefairclough) reported@virginmedia What a shitshow. Possibly the worst experience I’ve had in my life trying to deal with your crappy AI bots… I’d appreciate a phone number….
-
Andrew Ferguson OBE (@MrSaffron) reported@WeAreOpenreach @NeilJac74898351 @virginmedia In this case it looks like Virgin media has its fttp networks also available via nexfibre but a couple of addresses they don’t serve do exist. If at one of those then retailers on Openreach network are the way.

Alan Roberts (@AlanRob68902430) reported@DarcKni68649817 @virginmedia There shite ran by a company in the Philippines there is NO customer services anymore

Karen (@KarenLancs) reported@O2 @virginmedia had no internet since 7am - intermittent signal! Now says no broadband issues, but still cannot connect - PR5 area - please sort it out!
-
paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported@virginmedia couid you explain how the renewal person couldn't help me cancel ? told me to ring someone else? said she was on her own no team no manager to talk to?
-
Vicky 💙 (@deadstar37) reported@virginmedia help! We have 2 boxes on 2 different tvs in two rooms. They’re not in sync with each other. So if we’re watching the same channel have the kitchen door open the tv in there is delayed to the one in the front room (not much fun if you’re watching quizzes.
-
Sonic (@MrSonicAdvance) reported@virginmedia What I found frustrating, was that if I trimmed features from my package, the monthly price would go up, and if I added additional features the monthly price would go down. Utterly perverse! The whole process left me frustrated and bemused. Lovely people on your team, though. 👍
-
Triggerology (@TriggerologyUK) reported@virginmedia my Internet has been down for over 12 hours in the RG23 area. Can you at least tell us the issue?
