  • walshChanny Channy (@walshChanny) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia after changing to the cheapest package I received the biggest bill ever for international calls. Trying to resolve the problem is impossible. Please explain how to do it!

  • richardjportman Richard Portman (@richardjportman) reported from Eltham, England

    Damn it. My @virginmedia broadband connection has seemingly been put on furlough. (Difference being, I’m paying 100% for it).

  • jackbremer Jack Bremer ⚡️ (@jackbremer) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia I think it’s pretty poor that your routers don’t allow us to change DNS servers - I’d like to use some family filtering (Cloudflare/Cleanbrowsing etc) and have to do it per device instead. The kids will figure out how to change that in no time!

  • sinajtojayz Janis Sinaj (PISCES) (@sinajtojayz) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia I’m on the phone again let me see what will happen this is disgusting.. I do not want your service as I’ve said previously I changed providers . Disconnect my service NOW..!

  • Chrisveria Elias Chris Christodoulou (@Chrisveria) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    Virgin Media down again 350 meg speed !!! It is never that speed lucky to get 200 rang virgin media and put me on hold for ages.... I give up....

  • lukebaileyphoto Luke Bailey (@lukebaileyphoto) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Persistent network issues continue to hinder the ability to work from home. I endeavoured to check the service page but it itself would not load so I’m guessing there’s an issue somewhere. Issues include long dropouts and high response times. #networkengineer

  • JohnPeeOfficial John Pritchard (@JohnPeeOfficial) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia goes down more than a brothel worker

  • pussinpjs1 linda holmes (@pussinpjs1) reported from London, England

  • Ishaniem ℐ𝓈𝒽𝒶𝓃𝒾ℯ (@Ishaniem) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Hi CW, thanks for the update. It's been over 72 hours and the phone line still isn't working. Appreciate that these are difficult times for everyone but that's a long time to not have a service. It's your senior managers who need to sort themselves out.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    A recorded voice saying sorry only calls to an emergency number are allowed is not much help of your lying on the floor only able to press your emergency lanyard! @virginmedia urgent training is required to ensure people aren’t left in this situation. #unacceptable #LivesAtRisk

  • UTM_Mariners UP THE MARINERS! ⚽️ #UTM (@UTM_Mariners) reported

    UPDATE: Virgin Media users should be able to access the website now, I had to wait for the cache to refresh after making background changes with the domain name. If anyone still had issues with access, please highlight them to me. 👍🏽

  • ColinBrown1968 Colin Brown FBII (@ColinBrown1968) reported

    I see that @virginmedia is going down more often than a premier league player in the penalty box! Pray tell, what's the excuse for the 4+ hours outage in Lincoln this time??

  • ColinBrown1968 Colin Brown FBII (@ColinBrown1968) reported

    @virginmedia It was just the generic "broadband/tv issues" message that doesn't explain anything. Good job that I have a strong back up system from @ThreeUK to keep connected. I just don't know why you can't send out an email in advance if it is routine/scheduled work.

  • ASAMEMORABILIA Football Memorabilia (@ASAMEMORABILIA) reported

    @virginmedia another day with no service , another day we no call back awful customer service , no TV which your still asking me to pay a bill for ! Please just get a manager or someone who has some authority to call me back it can't be this hard surely

    @virginmedia Yes nothing but problems with mobile signal doesn't work never get more than 8mbps of Internet as I speed test everyday that's awful for a company who boasts about really good speeds on their network this company really is awful and your customer service is terrible

  • DaughterHell1 Gem31666 (@DaughterHell1) reported
