  • AndrewJMolloy Andrew Molloy (@AndrewJMolloy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Any update on this? No reported faults, restarted my virgin box, @All4 app still not working.

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No I did not “tweet you” about the complaint I was agreeing with another customer & saying that I am having the same experiences-YOU responded to that tweet by asking for the complaint implying you were actually going to do something which you have not!! Further proving my point!

  • J_el9 Jen Elwood (@J_el9) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia WiFi down every day now, engineer out this morning, outage in area (BT5) , 4pm fix, box on the street needs seen too. 20 years old! 3 households all told different stories.. get it sorted! One neighbour on hold for over 60 mins only to be hung up on! 😡😡

  • carey_jonathan Jonathan carey (@carey_jonathan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Aye, sure I've nothing better to do that sit for 45mins on hold. How about you call me? Your customer that you're not providing a service for!

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I didn’t say it was an instant response service !!! I said that YOUR COLLEAGUE said they couldn’t access account information on social media !!! So they were lying then? This would seem the case if you are now asking me to provide the complaint reference?

  • lilmissymoo90 Lauren Blair♥ (@lilmissymoo90) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Longer im on hold with @virginmedia waiting to leave the more sure i am I wanna leave this music is awful 🙄

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia (And watch all will go quiet they like to make a public show of responding but because I’ve called out @Virginmedia on their crap service - they now won’t respond !!! )

  • bertskill Bertie Skillen (@bertskill) reported from Whiteabbey, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia is there a problem with broadband in BT161GA area, Internet not working??

  • carey_jonathan Jonathan carey (@carey_jonathan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Broadband **** itself for 10/15mins. Same this last week. Glad I signed up for another 18 months and paying £3 extra a month for this muck

  • IanRobinson Ian Robinson (@IanRobinson) reported from Stormont, Northern Ireland

    Is anyone else having issues on Virgin Media broadband. Some sites not browsable. Dropbox sync not working. They are all okay when I drop to 4G via iPhone.

  • AndrewJMolloy Andrew Molloy (@AndrewJMolloy) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia The @All4 app has not been working for 2 days now. Is this a service wide fault, or something wrong on our end?

  • itsadam0202 Adam (@itsadam0202) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia ****** FIX IT

  • davmacfc Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia can you please explain why the best price as a loyal customer for years is 30 pound more expensive than a new customer. Can’t even get through to right department to cancel

  • TrevorAKilleen Trevor Killeen (@TrevorAKilleen) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Yet a new LOW in crappy “customer service” from @Virginmedia - letter saying they have been trying to contact me (still waiting for a callback from 26/8/20) no attempts made and to text a number to get someone to contact me ...... guess what an automated system that gets

  • StripeyMiata Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Also, on the Virgin Media support forums, loads of people complaining text cancelling isn’t working either, hence I wrote.

  • davmacfc Dale McDonald (@davmacfc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia No it’s not fair at all John, I’ve been a loyal customer of virgin for quite a few years and the price increases along with the differential to new customers have got too much. Soon to be an ex customer if I can get through to your call centre @skytv any thing you can offer

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • gazsax Gary Saxby (@gazsax) reported

    @virginmedia hi guys can you confirm if you are having any broadband issues in the SM4 postcode. Your email says it’s fine then issues then fine again.

  • MueenPasha5 Mueen Pasha (@MueenPasha5) reported

    @virginmedia I am contacting them through Whatsapp, as my previous experience calling is that I will wait ages to get through, then the advisor will hang up or disconnect the call either by mistake or because they don't want to deal with the matter.

  • lns2022uk LN Complains (@lns2022uk) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe i'm getting old before my time, but when I was younger and infact worked in call centers myself, when someone said "can i speak to a manager" they could speak to one on that call not wait 72 hours to speak to them. In what world is that good customer service?

  • leonspight Leon Spight (@leonspight) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there what’s the issue in TW12 as all services TV, phone and broadband have been down since approx 10am. Also the Virgin Media mobile service appears to be impacted as well as services are running very slow?

  • CreasyEmma Emma Creasy (@CreasyEmma) reported

    @virginmedia Just adding to issues for my complaint to CISAS - promised a web chat at 6, shock I’ve been sent nothing

  • Robert_spyhack Robert_spyhacker (@Robert_spyhack) reported

    @chrishenry88 @virginmedia There’s a good chance of recovery. message me @Robert_spyhack on Twitter or insta would help you recover you account.hit me up.

  • BatgirlRocksxo Gem (@BatgirlRocksxo) reported

    @virginmedia No, didn’t know there were issues in the area. A lot of households in the area lost wifi around 9am this morning, which is when this “work” began, supposed to have finished by 3pm but we still can’t get online. Router is solid green line or flashing green line and green arrows.

  • BarrySalkin Barry Salkin (@BarrySalkin) reported

    @virginmedia Because you’d not want to be sure to give correct info on notice to disconnect in a thread about customer being given incorrect info on notice to disconnect… Folks who didn’t have any other option for TV (if reasons not to have a Sky dish) and/or folks who previously only (1/n)

  • Seb_lr Seb (@Seb_lr) reported

    @virginmedia adopted a new sales technique? Placing orders on my behalf without myself explicitly confirming if I’d like to proceed, then calling to fix the issue and being told I can’t cancel it…

  • TomFoolerySays Tom Parker (@TomFoolerySays) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry but that's unacceptable, I've now got to call you for the 18th time to sort the same issue. I've lost days of work, money and patience down to this. I expect my broadband to be fixed tomorrow and a reimbursement of my funds.
