  John Leeson (@Jp_Leeson) reported 2 minutes ago from Wibsey, England

  @virginmedia Yeah he turned up unannounced and left then after several calls got another engineer out who said the fibre cable is snapped and needs replacing and he could not give me a date or time as his emails on his pda are not working so I guess it’s left in the hands of the gods

  Joe Hirst (@JoeMHirst) reported 2 minutes ago from Halifax, England

  @virginmedia The excuse is always to make further improvements in my area. I have only been with Virgin for around 12 months and this has happened a handful of times. It would be great if I had a consistent network connection. Had multiple engineer callouts to fix that issue to no success.

  @skytv are proper jokers account due for renewal and only offered to know it down by £7 per Month... That's the £7 increase they put on... Virgin media can get same package for 30 cheaper!

  @virginmedia We have finally got through to someone other via a mobile phone to sort it out. But there does seem to be an issue with your website.

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 12 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  Matty Beswick (@bezzyboy88) reported 17 minutes ago from Leeds, England

  Outage on @virginmedia since yesterday morning, get a text message this morning saying it’s fixed. It’s not. Ring up to be told it will be fixed by 2nd November what good is that to anybody?

  Thomas Gadd (@ThomasGaddPhoto) reported 24 minutes ago from Wrose, England

  @SGiangregorio @virginmedia Terrible for the money they charge people. No doubt they’ll be happy enough increase your bill though at the end of the year

  @virginmedia It’s been on and off for weeks. Nothing is being done quickly enough. Hope you will be compensating customers for the loss of service !

  Md Yuzaiful Md Yusof (@Yuz6Yusof) reported 43 minutes ago from Leeds, England

  Having been a loyal customer for 4 years with @virginmedia, I have been lied to by customer service. They applied a different package than what agreed on phone. Violation of customer’s right! Rang 3 times since to complain but nothing has been done! Disgraceful @VirginMediaCorp

  Question for you. If we have a Virgin Media contract (Broadband) in my Wife’s name and we cancel (contract is up) that to then put a new contract in my name is this allowed for the same address?! #VirginMedia

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 49 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

• 
  Paul Waite (@plrw2010) reported 53 minutes ago from Leeds, England

  @virginmedia why is your customer service so difficult to deal with? They seem like robots reading from a list of FAQ answers! Ask something not on the list they are clueless!! Thanks

  Under no circumstances ever sign anything with @virginmedia. It's probably the worst company I've ever dealt with.

  @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

• 
  Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts🐀 (@westerby1) reported 59 minutes ago from Thornton, England

  @virginmedia If that was the case then I apologise for moaning! Seems it was just bad timing! Had I rung a little later you'd have known! I just always assumed that the tests that you run would show if there was a fault at your end?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

• 
  🇬🇧 Rob @No-Bull-Politics 🇬🇧 (@bull_robin56713) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I'm sure I'm not alone in having asked you to reduce my service, such as cancelling a second set-top box, in order to reduce my bills. As you can see here I asked for my bills to be reduced in Jan 2024. Yet notice how those bills have crept up again ever since. There has been no increase or improvement in the service you provide to justify this. According to my analysis, despite having gained a better paid job recently, my net income is down 4.2% compared with 5 years ago. Like many, I am going to have to tighten my belt, and those bills that increase without any prior warning must be the first to go.

  @virginmedia It’s a disgrace I have been trying to get a refund from my account for near 2 months now and it still has not been sent. 9 phone calls an email from a manager to guarantee it would be sent back and 7 chats all recorded. Think is a complaint to ofcom now !!

  @virginmedia @Virgin @WeAreOpenreach Do you provide a good service in my area?

• 
  Mark (@tirpse) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia every night this week broadbands gone down at the same time. Do a check no issues, check again no issues check again intermittent issues check back in 24 hours. It’s not as if broadband is new, surely you should know what you’re doing by now? Fix it and get reliable!

  @biggle1908 Bloody awful. Been with virgin media for years. Last 12 months internet constantly crashing or really slow andthey doubled our renewal . Ditched them for EE. 24 quid a month with great speed

• 
  Oracle (@biggle1908) reported 22 minutes ago

  Looking for some advice lovely people. For twenty something years I have had broadband from BT and TV from Sky. Sky’s renewal is coming in at over £100 per month and am currently paying £62 for BT which is now painfully slow. I have been looking at Virgin Media for both and this gives me a saving of around £70 per month for much faster broadband. What are people’s experiences with Virgin Media. Thanks in advance.

  In 2003, 68-year-old Stan Beaton said goodbye to his beloved wife, Ruby, after she lost her battle with cancer. Among all the memories she left behind, one became his greatest treasure, a simple voicemail recorded on their home answering machine, preserving the sound of her voice. For years, Stan kept the same phone service for one reason alone: he was terrified that changing providers might erase that recording. Whenever grief became too heavy, he would play the message, finding comfort in hearing Ruby speak once again. Then, without warning, everything changed. During a routine system upgrade by Virgin Media, the voicemail was accidentally deleted. Stan later described the heartbreak: "When I realized it was gone, it felt like I had lost my wife a second time." Once the company understood what had happened, they launched an extraordinary recovery effort. Around a dozen engineers dedicated three full days to retrieving a single voicemail. They combed through archived systems, aging servers and backup files, comparing the task to finding a needle in a haystack. Despite the odds, they refused to stop searching. Against all expectations, they found it. When Stan learned how many people had worked tirelessly to recover his recording, he was overwhelmed. "All those people… just to help me? I never imagined a company would go to such lengths," he said. Then came the moment he had almost given up hope of experiencing again. Ruby's familiar voice filled the room: "Stan and Ruby are not available right now. Please leave your name and number, and we'll get back to you." Tears quickly welled up in his eyes. "Amazing… absolutely amazing," he whispered. With deep gratitude, he later said: "I thought I would never hear her voice again. They gave me back something I believed was gone forever. They made an old man incredibly happy." Sometimes the greatest treasures aren't money or possessions. They're the few precious seconds of a loved one's voice memories that can comfort a heart for a lifetime.
