  • goitsagch Nick Daniels (@goitsagch) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia I need to move a mobile number from an old 3G Virgin SIM to a new 4G one I got as part of my Oomph package, but I don't remember my 'telephone password' so the text chat people couldn't help, so I need to reset that somehow I think.

  • groom_donna Donna Groom (@groom_donna) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia shit service, spent 25 mins getting through to sort out my non existent broadband and was told they would charge me to get my devices right then hung up when I said I would not pay for a service I am already paying over £80 pm for.

  • midnightmaggie Sophie Lonergan (@midnightmaggie) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia 1.5 hours and counting on the phone to virgin to try and sort out the wifi. Worst service ever, been with them for 3 months and had the slowest speed we have ever had! Don’t use them, bunch of cowboys! 😡

  • bobster76 Robert Beahan ❄️☃️🎅🌲 (@bobster76) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia Yes. No known issues. This has been going on for a week now.

  • goitsagch Nick Daniels (@goitsagch) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia I've already had a long online chat earlier, but only the phone operators can help apparently. I just can't ever get through. The waiting times are ridiculous

  • goitsagch Nick Daniels (@goitsagch) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia I don't have 2 hours spare to sit on hold right now. Maybe I'll try the text service later when I've got some time. Got other things to do now. Thanks for your help anyway.

  • RHerbert95 Rory Herbert (@RHerbert95) reported from Dunstable, England

    @virginmedia It's for the broadband, we've had issues for the past few days and speeds of <1mbps, the automated hotline said there were intermitent issues and we didn't have a chance to talk to anyone because the hold was too long

  • NormskinutsMark Mark (@NormskinutsMark) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia existing customer with you for quite a few years paying £139. Same deal Black Friday being offered only £79 wtf. You are shafting loyal customers

  • alisdairrmsmith Alisdair Smith (@alisdairrmsmith) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @SkyHelpTeam that's on the Sky Sports App as a @virginmedia customer but they don't provide customer services obvs

  • lewishamprodigy lewishamiltonprodigy (@lewishamprodigy) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia i spoke to one of your representatives on tuesday and they put the phone down on me as i was trying to upgrade my services as i was getting on 3 mb download speed and oaying for 50. so i made an official complaint still not heard back anything. upgraded my line

  • goitsagch Nick Daniels (@goitsagch) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia No, I had to admit defeat after 50 minutes. I had things to do! I have a new Virgin Mobile 4G SIM and I need to transfer the number from and old Virgin 3G SIM to it. If you could help with that, that would be marvelous.

  • _M155Y_ Kate Welling 🔶️🔶️🔶️ (@_M155Y_) reported from St Albans, England

    @anemoneproject @HertsFRSControl Virgin Media still appears to be down.

  • DEJPett Daniel Pett (@DEJPett) reported from Aldbury, England

    Any tech journalists out there looking into @virginmedia poor customer service, ping @jonnypett for a chat.

  • Jacquiharding14 Jacqui harding (@Jacquiharding14) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia She also doesnt do twitter. What she needs is a manager to listen and just sort the problem. Its simple to sort so they just need to. The phobe number they gave her used all her allowance and cut her off midcall today and she is with virgin mobile

  • munirawilson Munira Wilson MP (@munirawilson) reported from London Colney, England

    I'm aware that many residents in #Hampton, #Whitton #Teddington who are Virgin Media customers may not have lost phone, broadband & TV service. I've been in touch with Virgin who say it's due to a third party cutting through a cable and they are working to resolve the issue.

  • jamanifin Toby Weston (@jamanifin) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia I wouldn’t look forward to my response, it won’t be complimentary. You consistently give poor performance over wired connections and your customer service peps seem to neither care nor be in a position to do anything. I pay £46 per month for the privilege!

  • F_O_I_D Alison Mitchell (@F_O_I_D) reported from Luton, England

    Virgin media is down for maintenance. No WiFi and no tv. Guess I’ll have a mix.

  • alisdairrmsmith Alisdair Smith (@alisdairrmsmith) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @adampowley @VirginMediaCorp They don't have any provision for anything that might be described as customer service let alone anything that would allow their customers to communicate with them #VirginMedia

  • lewishamprodigy lewishamiltonprodigy (@lewishamprodigy) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia im really upset this is not the service im paying for and i wish to make another complaint about why an engineer would lie about coming to a visit when they ever showed up whatsoever

  • NormskinutsMark Mark (@NormskinutsMark) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia Gave up on the message service and rang you. WiFi signal keeps dropping even when in same room as the router. No signal upstairs. Virgin booster installed. Box was tested and found a fault. Reset. Will keep an eye.upgraded faster speed paying a lot expect better

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MurphyOfMercia Murphy (@MurphyOfMercia) reported

    @virginmedia "Please do check back later" for a service I pay for 24/7/365.

  • pauloLondinium qqqqqq (@pauloLondinium) reported

    Hello @virginmedia, I’ve been trying to cancel for days because my father is moving into care - but you won’t respond. Anything you can do before I go to Which, You and Yours and other consumer champions

  • vincehanratty Vinny Hanratty (@vincehanratty) reported

    @virginmedia Yes , it did say there was an issue, now it doesn’t. This is a problem we had for 4 years 2 years ago , it took 4 years for you to fix it , now it’s happening again. It’s usually an engineer has been out to ‘solve’ another customer issue & redirected the issue so we get problem

  • annelliott2017 Ann Elliott 💙 (@annelliott2017) reported

    @virginmedia Are you actually kidding me on? Your whatsapp response is from a chat bot. How will that resolve this issue? Or do you just want me to shut up? That's not going to happen

  • AndrewJMonk Andrew Monk (@AndrewJMonk) reported

    @virginmedia That's not entirely true John... my contract ended in July, unbeknownst to me, and my weekly fee jumped from £44 to £62. Nothing like @CooperativeBank who's home insurance renewal went down this year. Head and shoulders above there guys, well done.

  • bittershurn Bittershurn (@bittershurn) reported

    @virginmedia trying to book an appointment for an engineer to fix WiFi broadband again. Why have you made it so difficult? Every trail leads to a dribbling automated Bot. Useless.

  • BenjamienSm Ben (@BenjamienSm) reported

    @virginmedia I am struggling with extremely slow upload speeds since yesterday. Whenever I upload (which I do for work) it causes the entire connection te become unstable. The service status says there is am issue in my postcode but no indication of when this will be fixed.

  • 1001pieces Terrie (@1001pieces) reported

    @virginmedia No issues according to that site. Callers hear it ringing but doesn't ring my end. Came out about 3 weeks ago. Will WA to get package removed. Contacting you via the help on your website is impossible.

  • Le_Sharp Lee (@Le_Sharp) reported

    @virginmedia 40 minutes on the phone and your tech support can’t help. They are sending an engineer but the appointment has changed between the call and the confirmation text. Your website is useless and your online chat is a lie. How do I complain?

  • TheFatDudeUK The Fat Dude (@TheFatDudeUK) reported

    @virginmedia Not sure why ur being rude no email has this been going on 4 even,
