  • GodberKen
    Ken Godber (@GodberKen) reported from Annesley, England

    @virginmedia hi - I have a sim only mobile contract that's not been used for at least 18mths. I've stopped the DD as I'm unable to simply cancel via website and the number quoted to call doesn't work. I've got nowhere to go with this problem now.

  • sarjeantm01
    Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes it must have shorted itself overnight @virginmedia can I please cancel the engineer?

  • JohnPuxty

    @JPBOLDY @virginmedia I am also getting this problem

    Chris Seddon (@_Chris_Seddon_) reported from Melbourne, England

    Looks like someone pulled out the wrong plug at Virgin Media HQ. Even their website is down!

    @virginmedia customer care should be renamed ‘customer don’t give a ****’ How long waiting to speak to someone...??? #rubbish #crapservice

  • iamj_armstrong
    James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t an outage. I have been told it may be a line fault but the hub was fine yesterday afternoon

  • haasty_kawa
    haasty kawa (@haasty_kawa) reported from Derby, England

    @virginmedia I'm not at all satisfied. Since last night until now, my internet has been down. When I attempted to contact customer service, it flatly refused. I attempted to access the page, but it is still blocking me. I am self-employed. The region DE248ET is shown here. Fix it asap

  • breadf2man

    @virginmedia The other issue your engineer was in yesterday surely he would have checked these things out ? Personally i dont think he was very experienced or didnt know how to do his job properly.

  • Ebike_holidays
    National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

    John D (@Jdd535) reported from Stapleford, England

    Any chance virgin media can sort their network out.. paying for over 300mbps n only getting 46mbps!! #VirginMediaoutage #virginmediauk #virginmedia

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia Nothing that springs to mine, but ive never known it to constantly drop off, some of the reasons the operators are giving me are silly and I told the lady it was rubbish.. im sorry but I am fed up of ringing every day and getting nowhere. I think i will have to move broadband

  • flyingscotsmin1

    @virginmedia what's going on?? TV is still not working!! Tried resetting and still nothing.

  • acmtix
    𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙢🐰 (@acmtix) reported from Eastwood, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have contacted Virginmedia a couple of times. It looks like there is a problem in Nottingham NG16 area again. This is a common issue. Disconnections and lack of a quality service.

  • charlie_bethel
    Charlie Bethel (@charlie_bethel) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Nobody has phoned or sent a text to my parents and there phone internet and tv is still not working. They have to keep topping up there mobile credit and nobody answers there calls

  • katej1984
    Kate J (@katej1984) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia any chance you could hire call centre staff that don’t hang up the phone after 3 seconds in an attempt to bring their AHT down?

  • owen40uk
    owen scrimshaw (@owen40uk) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia @Moz10Paul Why is it that your customers have to tell you it’s not bloody working before you decide to admit an issue not impressed or happy

  • sarjeantm01
    Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia We have an engineer booked for Monday but I don't believe this is really acceptable with the amount of money we pay each month we should be able to expect a service which works, I understand there will be issues but over 3 hours later nothing?

  • 64derby
    paul (@64derby) reported from Duffield, England

    @virginmedia just installed virgin broadband 350 today ! only getting 5 mbps in my study.. phoned customers services for a booster to be told none in stock and phone back in 2 weeks.. took me over an hour to speak to a person in India who couldn’t help

  • breadf2man
    Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    Just put another complaint into Virgin Media about the fact that my original complaint from the 22/04/21 has not been dealt with and no details of when it will be if ever. I complained about having to make over 13 phone calls all lasting at least 20 minutes and 2 engineer visits

    @virginmedia @virginhelp is there a problem with the internet as mine has just dropped off

    @GameRiot Exactly, who doesn't have the internet in 2026, virgin Media internet went down and was fixed for me with in 4 hours. If you don't log on you don't lose your games, just need to sign back in to play.

  • DanTaylor86
    DT (@DanTaylor86) reported

    @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years but the customer service I've received today is extremely worrying. Everyone has been polite and tried to help, but still my package is all wrong. This needs rectifying immediately or your major competitor will be gaining new custom

  • red_bk13
    BK (@red_bk13) reported

    @entrustTMF @virginmedia Terrible situation for that long. I'm looking at a voda offer at the mo for switching from virgin when my deal expires. They offer a router with 4g back up. It's weather your can get decent speeds where you are that matters.

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported

    @virginmedia ok... here is some feedback. Fire the person that has thought aquirering new customers is more important than keeping the ones you got and rewarding them. Secondly fire the person that is handeling disconnections. They singlehandely made me a never again costumer. You could not pay me to return

  • pepetideo
    CrankyGeek (@pepetideo) reported from Oxford, England

    @virginmedia @FuzziePieRat Yes.. And how ****** up is it that you treat your existing paying customers so badly they have to attempt to do these hacks to get what you are freely giving away to new customers?

  • AnIndividualist
    TheRealCraig (@AnIndividualist) reported

    If @virginmedia had good deals I would’ve considered re subscribing. But cancelling our old email addresses without notice because we cancelled has caused so much trouble I certain won’t now

  • DanAaronTaylor
    Daniel Taylor (@DanAaronTaylor) reported

    @virginmedia VM/O2 account locked for security reasons. Spoke with someone on chat who requested it be unlocked within 5 days. This never happened. Called and asked again for my account to be unlocked. Again told this would be done. Hasn’t. Can this be escalated? I need access.

  • DWRICHARDS
    David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported

    @virginmedia if you fail to provide a promised refund and fail to deal with a complaint is there any hope that you might engage with me here?

  • jasoncainesmith
    Jason Caine Smith (@jasoncainesmith) reported

    @virginmedia and you can’t even recognise his account details or phone number so he’s sat there without tv!! Unacceptable service levels! I sincerely hope you’ll be refunding him some of the extortionate amount he pays you each month !
