  • Super_Sonic2010 Sonia Mathieson (@Super_Sonic2010) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Thank you. Virgin are aware, message just says issue identified and working on it. Internet is vital for work, so wondering if a fix is in sight

    @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Dear Virgin Media, unlawful pretending fraudulent callers keep ringing us about a nonsense router signal issue and hacked IP network? Can you please implement preventative measures to protect vulnerable community members living in the UK. Thx

  • toneconsultancy Priti Joshi (@toneconsultancy) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    @virginmedia we have been getting intermittent WiFi and issues with security for the last 4 weeks . What is the problem ? Le24fy

  • Wee_Linz_ 👸🏻 Queen Wee Linz 👸🏻 (@Wee_Linz_) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as a family, all 4 of us are having problems with the mobile network. This has been ongoing for a few weeks and despite assurances that the problem is being fixed, it clearly isn't. This is frustrating and we are not getting the service we're paying for.

  • Super_Sonic2010 Sonia Mathieson (@Super_Sonic2010) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I have no doubt you'll be on it. Been quite some time now. Just wondered if there was an end to issues in sight.

  • Bobby_Dazzler68 Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, have done that, found a blackspot but won't let me order, refers to online bot chat that cannot help either. Can't get through via phone

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Tried this 3 times today. It will not submit my complaint. Very handy.

  • Paul_W_Young The JodFather (@Paul_W_Young) reported from Corby, England

    Thankyou @virginmobile for threatening legal action & forcing me to pay £135 for a mobile phone service we thought was cancelled. No calls/data used since March but you insisted. Net result is you’ve lost a loyal @virginmedia customer too. All services cancelled. Good riddance🖕

  • rickypaige121 Richard Paige (@rickypaige121) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia what the **** is going on in Corby !Your system keeps failing!! Are you going to give us a refund for every day a so called cable uninterrupted system fails ?? Sky is looking much better after the 20th time in 2 years that Virgin has failed !! Not worth recommending

  • Privatenugget2 Privatenugget (@Privatenugget2) reported from Irthlingborough, England

    @tiff_tv @TalkTalk That's not bad tbh i have rung virgin media been on the hold for over an hour then they just cut me off🙄🙄🙄

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

  • Bobby_Dazzler68 Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia hi, do you have online chat available for problem solving?

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia My broadband fluctuates, but even when I’m getting above 200mbps WiFi , my Ethernet to the back of the house is 5-10mbps. I’ve done all your tests, but read lots of comments that this is due to the virgin hub. Can you find a solution so I can work from home please!

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I thought my issue was resolved yesterday, but today I’ve had an email saying something different. I text the number again, at 11.28am, the bot replied but nothing since then?!

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia chat service is down, no one to answer technical calls, a website that sends you round and round in circles! Is it at all possible that someone is still working who can solve my broadband issues before I cancel my direct debit?

  • markaugustus99 Mark Augustus (@markaugustus99) reported from Burton Latimer, England

    @virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

  • RichardPFisher Richard Fisher (@RichardPFisher) reported from Wilby, England

    Yay! @vmbusiness has **** the bed once again, third time in a week. Going to have to put a smart switch on it so I can remote reset the router.

  • D4Ndilioness Tlatoani Ledge (@D4Ndilioness) reported

    @virginmedia I did... Apparently this was not showing on their screen and everything was showing as 'fine' so it was a bit frustrating because neither using WiFi or my mobile network (other company) would allowed me to access my account. A virtual technician was booked this week tho 🤞🏼 😔

  • ajayravindrana1 Ajay Ravindranathan (@ajayravindrana1) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it was total loss of service. Is your website down now?

  • oboudard Olivier Boudard (@oboudard) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, this was raised on the phone number provided but I never received the incident number by text as promised. I raised it again and the incident ref is 76614816

  • Katie1Austin Kate Murphy (@Katie1Austin) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried for nearly 2 weeks now to upgrade my account through your website, it never lets me. Keeps saying error. I’ve tried to call and been cut off also. I’m out of contract and paying a silly amount for what we have, can you help please?

  • LancManc83 LancManc (@LancManc83) reported

    @virginmedia Super info. Thanks VM. Your team on the phoneline were clearly bamboozled by the S#*t show that was my account that they put me on hold... for 39 minutes and then blind dumped me to a random agent in retentions. world class service

  • DaveP2611 AbandonedTrolley (@DaveP2611) reported

    @virginmedia it's no wonder your live chat queues are so long when your agents take over 7 minutes between responses... Broken 360 box for a week (unable to find hard drive CS6002) over 2 hours on live chat so far across multiple days.

  • FlashCrash1978 Anon (@FlashCrash1978) reported

    @virginmedia Experiencing the same in two postcodes across different users. Virgin website still saying no issues…….

  • woffboss Joshua Jones (@woffboss) reported

    @virginmedia answer your bloody phones. I wanna cancel.

  • Sonal_techphobe Sonal (@Sonal_techphobe) reported

    @virginmedia If Nathan is working today, I’d really appreciate it if we could sort this out asap. I’ve been trying to cancel since March and not sure how much more I can take.

  • harminderd82 Harminder (@harminderd82) reported

    @virginmedia 10 days! You know the issue but just excuses about access. Absolutely no confidence as to when someone will get around to resolving it
