    @virginmedia business installation, been given 6 dates since 17th January. 4 no show or wrong booked, 2 attendance but not equipped to extend installation from 1sf floor to 2nd. even billed for a service which is not even installed yet. Nightmare #virginmedia #broadband

  • MartinWilko Martin Wilkinson (@MartinWilko) reported from Birmingham, England

    Virginmedia down Sutton Coldfield. National outage . Their website down, unable to report status. No reports or statements from Virgin media. Price rise of 13.8% #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • PolymathTim SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Zero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m going to but I know I won’t get anywhere anyway the customer never gets anywhere

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia any updates on the VPN issue?

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia No , when I last spoke to someone on the phone the issue was still happening , it doesn’t happen as much now but still happens at least once a day

  • xsasix freckles n dimples (@xsasix) reported from Woodside, England

    @virginmedia how do you check the mobile phone signal in your area? I’ve had nine for a few days

  • Andraay Andraay Leung (@Andraay) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia having issues with Wi-Fi at home and your websites including the one on service status checks are not loading? As a result I can’t even report the problem.

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

  • nippa77 Neil Simpson (@nippa77) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia why is it that your service is up and down more than a yo-yo? It’s getting ridiculous now!!!

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The TV goes all distorted I’ve done webchats phone calls the lot nothing has been resolved was told it was a problem in the area , neighbours have had no issues happened still have issues now but not as often but it’s a bit annoying esp when I’ve not had any money off

  • BeardPunk Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted several times. Wi-Fi works fine, it’s just the VPN. Automated message says there’s still an issue.

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia They haven't called me yet that's how bad you're

  • saqibsvideos ch Saqib (@saqibsvideos) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I did, and told them everything what's been happening they goes we will sort out and I still getting emails from virgin I don't know why and problem is still there and bill getting delayed which I been told them about that and its keep happening since January

  • NewtonAndy Andy Newton (@NewtonAndy) reported from Dudley, England

    @Niknaklady1 @virginmedia Oh dear. That's what made me think the problem may not be virgin, if you've got signal on another set. Hope you get it sorted 👍

  • nealesj Simon Neale (@nealesj) reported from Swindon, England

    It looks like @virginmedia name servers are not accessible so no DNS records can be resolved. A major outage for their services. Seems to be no comms from them. @BBCNews are you aware? #VirginMediaDown #VirginMedia

  • HuntColin58 Colin Hunt (@HuntColin58) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It took me best part of a day Friday 24/3/2023 to contact you to cancel my broadband but since I finally managed to you have been contacting me 4 times a day. We have signed a contract with someone else. Please stop harassing us we have cancelled

  • AdieJAMster Adie Hughes (@AdieJAMster) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia Internet has been down again for the whole night. When I spoke to you about the recent last 6 times it’s been down you said there was no issue! Looks like whole of UK was down now yet our bills go UP & UP & UP! #virginmedia

  • Strudelsdoodles Carlyann Price (@Strudelsdoodles) reported

    @virginmedia any chance you can log no broadband in tf7 area of Telford been off for hours and I am just getting blank pages on mobile data no help at all!

  • SteveSlade273 Steve Slade (@SteveSlade273) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. How come a new customer can have the same deal for £35 a month cheaper than an existing customer? Doesn't really seem fair tbh

  • obsilverfox Ollie Brown (@obsilverfox) reported

    @virginmedia I am away and roaming isn’t working. It won’t reliably connect. I have already restated the phone multiple times. I’ve enabled roaming both in mobile data and sim applications I’ve tried to auto select network and tried all networks available…

  • ozi9mm oz (@ozi9mm) reported

    @virginmedia Are you taking the... Did you not read what I wrote? I want to speak to someone but this is not possible they put you on hold when you want to cancel and drop you. It's like a new tactic done in call centres so people can't cancel. Will be complaining to ombundsman

  • jennifenicole Jenna (@jennifenicole) reported

    I cannot express enough how much I hate virgin media...possibly the worse customer service ever

  • DominicGlynn1 Dominic Glynn (@DominicGlynn1) reported

    @virginmedia Have tried calling that number. They only will talk to me if I have a Virgin phone service or if I want to take out a new contract.

  • OfficialJayDizz Jay (@OfficialJayDizz) reported

    @virginmedia So been with virgin over 7 years, took out a contract with them for max tv, weekend calls for the phone and 300 broadband. 46 a month going up to 81 (but told me I could call up and get a deal or cancel) called up the deal was 76 so I cancelled.

  • bazza_bee_revol 🚩Bazza B ☭ (@bazza_bee_revol) reported

    @virginmedia How does that help me now?

  • tfoyle Tom Foyle (@tfoyle) reported

    @virginmedia No. New SIM. It's just poor signal . After checking on a cell signal app the signal was being delivered from 02 infrastructure not Vodafone as was before.

  • tfoyle Tom Foyle (@tfoyle) reported

    @GirlJambo @virginmedia They are migrating customers over to 02s infrastructure hense I have also experienced deterioration of network quality
