  • amalsasikumar amal sasikumar (@amalsasikumar) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    Which Broadband is better @virginmedia or @SkySports or any other mine is very slow and expensive

  • madeamazing_ MadeAmazing (@madeamazing_) reported from Bromley, England

    Nice to know @virginmedia are absolute animals towards old people. Not a care in the world. Just cutting off their phone line without considering the consequences & impact it could have on two elderly people. Sickening behaviour. My poor granny is so distressed.

  • Kev_McLoughlin Kevin McLoughlin (@Kev_McLoughlin) reported from West Molesey, England

    I move house and seemingly return to dial-up. @virginmedia guy was a man looking for a problem and probably saw a solution getting in the way of an easy day. @bt_uk say 2 weeks to £50 activation even though cables already in and I’m self-installing and it’s only 3-7mb !!!! 😠

  • Lotster911 Charlotte Hall (@Lotster911) reported from Tottenham, England

    Just found out @virginmedia has been charging extortionate evening call rates on home phone but allegedly only have weekend call free ! Literally ripping people off ! Could have another mobile contract with what they charged for handful of calls to my blind elderly Dad- #bad

  • madeamazing_ MadeAmazing (@madeamazing_) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Well in talking to two of your customer service team they say you haven't. But two others say it has been!! Complete chaos. And terrible customer service.

  • Raqibeh Raqibeh Baluch 🦋 (@Raqibeh) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Wifi Network.. I’ve been resetting, restarting.. but nothing works.. its been 2 days now.. pls fix it Asap!

  • Katiewrightt1 katie (@Katiewrightt1) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia waited 25 minutes before I got through and then your unfriendly staff member hung up on me whilst ‘searching for information’ 🤨🤨🤨. My internet never works and I’m getting 0 help....

  • Rasta_Fou Rasta Fou (@Rasta_Fou) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia High call demand is unacceptable!! If you offer a service and you can’t even deliver that service! I would like someone senior to call me to make this right. In the mean time I will be contacting @BBCWatchdog

  • VillianComplex Christopher Tulloch (@VillianComplex) reported from East Ham, England

    I thought BT were bad but damn @virginmedia is seriously awful.

  • LondonNetworker #LondonNetworker (@LondonNetworker) reported from Walthamstow, England

    Virgin MEDIA down again!!!! @virginmedia

  • GeirGulbrandsen 積ん読 (@GeirGulbrandsen) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know, as most evenings streaming video (even low-res) is really bad again. I know the product description is "up to...", but as you linked the other day you ha "minimum guaranteed bandwidth" that should be more than enough to watch a little bit of video. Very sad

  • iamkingkyla_ 🥴 (@iamkingkyla_) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia can you fix your WiFi I’m actually sick of this rubbish

  • Willhide Will Hide (@Willhide) reported from Camden Town, England

    @GillianRhys @virginmedia Ha - would never go back to them. We found them totally unreliable and their customer service was beyond a joke. (But thanks. And see you tomorrow!)

  • NA_Brown Nate Brown (@NA_Brown) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia having real trouble with your broadband of late. Previously very intermittent. Now no connection at all. Your website doesn’t help either

  • Rasta_Fou Rasta Fou (@Rasta_Fou) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia has got to be the #worst customer experience ever. 3times I have been cut off trying to report a problem with my landline. Do not sign up to this company. #bad service majorly #overpriced I do not recommend @virginmedia to anyone.

  • sheavyn_tony Tony sheavyn (@sheavyn_tony) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia no internet since early morning trying to work your service is becoming a disgrace

  • SharifOmar3 Mike Oxmaul (@SharifOmar3) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate the excellent service This is what good customer service looks like @ThreeUK

  • lorihaleyfox Lori Haley Fox (@lorihaleyfox) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Thanks JJ - another customer service rep contacted me and the problem has been resolved. Unfortunately the first adviser was misinformed! Thank you!

  • JoshMayormaynot Joshua May (@JoshMayormaynot) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia - 27 minutes on the phone to you to them be cut off! I have now been on hold for 34 minutes second time round so far. I have been on your app, but there are problems in the area; just want to find out why my phone is not working. Not feeling very like a VVIP!

  • Kev_McLoughlin Kevin McLoughlin (@Kev_McLoughlin) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia I did, I moved, Virgin cable is at front door but 2nd floor flat deemed insurmountable problem by engineers.jow I’m going from 140Mb @virginmedia to 3Mb BT. Disappointed to say the least.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • brettsjackson Brett Jackson (@brettsjackson) reported

    @virginmedia The BB signal drops several times per day. The Wi-Fi remains. The Team suggest boosters, which won't help as its the BB not the Wi-Fi. Router has been replaced - hasn't fixed it. Suggestion is that there is nothing that can be done. But the BB is not reliable nor consistent.

  • ChezzerG Cheryl Gillett (@ChezzerG) reported

    @virginmedia I am also my wife's carer as a fact this issue happened yesterday as either could not reach each other

  • joshjamesgraham Joshua Graham (@joshjamesgraham) reported

    Nice job @virginmedia. Engineer visit to our neighbour coincides with a complete loss of service. Speak to your team who can provide no help, can't get anyone out before Tuesday (!) and then hang up. Superb stuff.

  • EmikoKazzakeu Emíko *^-^* (@EmikoKazzakeu) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and no help there either. And all I had last time was people on here trying to say it was me.. yet a few of us had the same issues again.. all of us on virgin media. I think its time I am gonna go to sky now. Had enough

  • AlexExile10 Paul (@AlexExile10) reported

    @welshboy69 @virginmedia Yep, I got cut off while reordering the box on my third go I think, I'm the same, had no real issues, but omg, this feels like they're really trying my patience !!

  • welshboy69 ɪᴇᴜᴀɴ (@welshboy69) reported

    @AlexExile10 @virginmedia Wait till you try and cancel your contract 😳 They cut me off 4 times this morning - I eventually told them that if they cut me off again I’d leave their kit on the drive when I move and wouldn’t take responsibility. Shame really, I’ve not had any real issues with them otherwise

  • Kelly93Sarah Sarah Kelly (@Kelly93Sarah) reported

    @virginmedia This number doesn't work as we are in Ireland. We have been on the phone already numerous time with technical staff and they keep fobbing us off telling us "they'll call us back with an update" and nothing? Just keep going round in circles!

  • derekcroghan23 derekcroghan (@derekcroghan23) reported

    @virginmedia Wow! Just been cold called by you guys and have never come across anyone as rude on the phone ever! Wouldn’t let me finish my sentences and abruptly hung up. Leaves a very sour taste…

  • fabian_odu Fabian Odu (@fabian_odu) reported

    @virginmedia The service is back up again without me doing anything, it has been a frustrating experience using your service and I have resolved to look for an alternative. These outages have become so frequent that it is hampering my ability to fulfil my commitments to clients.

  • _Shane_MW Shane (@_Shane_MW) reported

    @virginmedia Well I have an original account but my service is moving to a new property so I assumed my account would just move over.
