  • lastminutepete Peter McLoughlin (@lastminutepete) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Good morning. Yes it’s an ongoing problem that isn’t going to go away on its own, it needs resolving please. I see that there is now a Hub 4 available, does that emit a stronger WiFi signal? And what about Booster Pods? I don’t live it a mansion, it’s just a normal 3 bed semi.

  • lastminutepete Peter McLoughlin (@lastminutepete) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia I’m on M600 Fibre Broadband. On my account it says ‘our broadband doesn’t get quicker than this. You’re on our top tier broadband!’ If I got a Hub 4 and 1gb broadband, would that guarantee a stronger and faster WiFi network?

  • lastminutepete Peter McLoughlin (@lastminutepete) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia I did all that yesterday. On the laptop that recorded a speed of 1.28mbps, when I put the Ethernet cable in, it was 254.99mbps. On the Apple TV, it went from 1.06 to 651. It’s not just these devices, these are the worst examples

  • a3racer Chris C (@a3racer) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia is there a fix time for the Virgin TV issue in the GU21 area? It’s been down now for over 24 hours! Will my account be credited with money that I have paid for no service?

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    Hey @virginmedia I forgot how awful you were when it came to anything other than collecting my direct debit. Apparently you don’t have a complaints dept, genius, and after 4 calls to you today totally around three hours, you cut two of them off during the musical interlude!

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Windsor, England

    @virginmedia Yes still on the phone with you guys. I hope the new house owner’s not reading this as they can use my services to their heart’s content until I can provide a transferable address. Very very poor @virginmedia

  • ce141974 Caryn Sinclair (@ce141974) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is beyond bad!! When making a complaint because I have no internet your representative desires to shout over me! I’ve been waiting 3 days!! Shocking!!!

  • 6thDr 6thdr (@6thDr) reported from Wokingham, England

    Today I finally changed my phone. Goodbye #virginmedia #virginmobile never again shall I have such awful customer service service.

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia Hi see first tweet in chain, I have been waiting on CS whom I called and raised a call back complaint request with before I tweeted my frustration

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia Thanks I’m currently doing this now. So on the ‘phone once again for around an hour and been passed over and back and STILL no outcome a d still holding. Just waiting for the line to go dead as previous. When does a customer give up and just leave this shower for good?!?!?! 🤬🤬

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It about moving house. As Virgin is unavailable at the new residence and the move is only temporary I was told in two separate calls that I could ‘freeze’ my account and now it’s come to it it seems that I have to keep paying whilst not receiving any service or buy myself out!

  • craigr98_2016 Craig R 🇹🇩🌹 (@craigr98_2016) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia I made a formal complaint against your company and was told 28 days I’d get a response - it’s been longer than that, what can we do to get my complaint moving?

  • mkn1ght Ultra Mugnus (@mkn1ght) reported from Reading, England

    @monstroso @virginmedia A problem we all have.

  • UrineMan oluwa 🇳🇬 (@UrineMan) reported from Burnham, England

    it should be illegal for virgin media to advertise their broadband as the fastest and most reliable. it’s absolutely ****

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia It’s more about how this can’t be dealt with online and spending a busy day trying to get to talk with someone who actually can help. #Disgraceful #expectedthis

  • lastminutepete Peter McLoughlin (@lastminutepete) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done all that and it said the signal was weak. Pressed the button to optimise the WiFi or router or whatever it is and that didn’t work. Is it not the job of the router to emit a strong WiFi signal? All the devices trying to connect are modern and up to date.

  • AndyBarr79 Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I can't sign in as I no longer hold an account, your CS don't care and obviously fobbing me off and not raising complaints as requested, I will just pursue via FCA and/or trading standards.

  • mkmtassociates Malcolm Todd (@mkmtassociates) reported from Harefield, England

    @virginmedia Not helpful. Service checked no issues but still had to call this morning as on internet. Down again this afternoon. Spend more time working though the phone than using a load for internet service from virgin. What a waste of money.

  • PhilipFurlong2 Philip Furlong (@PhilipFurlong2) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia They say it's company policy and as it's with IT they can no longer help! 1 week and no further forward.

  • PhilStace20 Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @denman79 @virginmedia The irony is that @virginmedia are more like the Pistols -‘No point in asking you’ll get no reply’ and they seem ‘Pretty Vacant’ but ‘Never mind all that…..’ can someone please take some responsibility and ownership that seems to be sadly lacking atm

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BS75Photo Ben Snowden (@BS75Photo) reported

    @virginmedia is there a problem in Morley Leeds for connection? 😫

  • LollyPopLotus Libby (@LollyPopLotus) reported

    Started conversation with Virgin Media at 09:40. Was transferred to retentions 2 hours ago. Still waiting for them to respond. Not their fault - busy and tech issues. But my god is it frustrating (for them as well, I imagine) - ok, whiny tweet over 👍🏻

  • GilesStoakley Giles Stoakley (@GilesStoakley) reported

    @virginmedia once again this is the most terrible customer retention. As a long standing customer you are now asking me to pay £250 per year more than a new customer for the same service. I am baffled and disappointed by this policy. #broadband

  • FfyX Ffy S ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🐘 (@FfyX) reported

    @virginmedia Why am I now being told I’ll be sent a LETTER to change my password?? I answered the sec Qs correctly but now a letter will take 5 days. Why can’t I do this online, like all other password changes? Is it a delay tactic? Cancel my contract NOW, as requested.

  • Scotteboy75 Scott Robertson (@Scotteboy75) reported

    @virginmedia Issue is there’s been no one here to even check as I’m working from home.

  • MattBurnard1979 Matt Burnard (@MattBurnard1979) reported

    @Lordlinley @virginmedia Cowboys mate I just had them on the phone and the service they provide is shocking

  • Harriet_MCR Harriet Sutherland (@Harriet_MCR) reported

    @virginmedia The customer care team are not helping the customer or showing any care. Who do we speak to about Virgin's awful service and terrible actions to a vulnerable person? Is there anyone who can cancel the package without charge and put this right? Customer care cannot.

  • Louise63544316 Louise (@Louise63544316) reported

    @virginmedia and before ask there are no known problems but when I check my status it says there is an issue, to check back in 23hrs and you will book an engineer!

  • CRON1N_ CRON1N (@CRON1N_) reported

    @virginmedia Nope no fault reference just that they would log the complaint and fault. Still terrible today and affecting working from home.

  • MikeWalker2012 Mike Walker (@MikeWalker2012) reported from Poole, England

    Just had to put a 2nd call into @virginmedia this afternoon to sort out the problem they caused from this mornings call to them, which was to attempt to sort out issues from a previous call to them 🤬 New TV aerial installed next week and once @CityFibre are running, VM are gone!
