  • DannyD678 DJ Dan-E-D (@DannyD678) reported from Felley, England

    @virginmedia Still no return bag 3 weeks after you said you were sending it. Can’t speak to you because I’m not a customer. Sort it out please ASAP.

  • _teecarts tia carter🥑 (@_teecarts) reported from Eastwood, England

  • 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

  • lee0510 Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia please tell me how to speak to someone in your organisation! I can’t get through on line as it doesn’t recognise me even though you bill me and your phone system won’t allow me to speak to anyone. Customer service is diabolical.

  • marksimms3 Mark Simms (@marksimms3) reported from Selston, England

    I want to leave @virginmedia but they are hoping I lose the battle of how long can we keep this man on hold before he gives up” battle ..what a terrible company.

  • SmileyJMH Joanna Hayes (@SmileyJMH) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia just had call from 'Harry' in London, your technical department. Apparently I'm having issues with broadband speed... His employer ID was 194, apparently? He was shouty, in very loud place, couldn't tell me who I was. Please look into number 01323897224. Infuriating.

  • gaz_smith123 Gareth Smith (@gaz_smith123) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia have you got problems in area 30? My connection keeps dropping out!

  • Taidhgh Mr T O'regan (@Taidhgh) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia service in NG8 #Nottingham becoming an expensive joke. Now apparently likely to be intermittent until 3pm for 'improvements' but no notice given? Great service guys. #planning

  • lee0510 Lee Smith (@lee0510) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia I cannot contact you by phone, your site will not allow me to sign in as my email is not available, clearly it wasn’t deleted from previous account so I can not see internet status or report faults. My Wi-Fi is intermittent, not working as I type reply.

  • NikkiPearman Nikki Pearman 💙 (@NikkiPearman) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia That’s my problem. I can’t get to speak to a person and your automated system doesn’t allow me to discuss the issue properly.

  • deb_the_dj Deborah Marshall 💙 (@deb_the_dj) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia It drops out for a few minutes, then restarts, there is nothing I can see on your service page that helps with that. I'll try the factory reset, its the only thing I haven't tried.

  • Chops_Wallage Michael Wallage (@Chops_Wallage) reported from Ripley, England

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

  • e2mrk_mark Mark Smith (@e2mrk_mark) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia so not only have virgin hiked my bill to £49.00... I’ve had no phone line for 12 months.. it cost me over £4.00 on my mobile to phone them. How does that work Virgin? Appalling service.

  • activist84 gerisays (@activist84) reported from Beeston, England

    When you’re on the phone to @virginmedia to sort a broadband issue get placed on “hold” while the customer advisor “speaks to a colleague” to be informed the offices are now closed! Absolutely appalling customer service!!! And still haven’t sorted the issue 🙄🙄🙄🙄

  • rigg0o RIGGO (@rigg0o) reported from Eastwood, England

    Class when you wanna cancel @virginmedia and the gobshite operater cant get it in her thick skull and barraging you with other shite deals to then put the phone down. Times must be hard for mr branson, please liquidate.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia You couldn't make this incompetence up - had another call, chasing 2 mths costs for a phone not used in over 2 yrs, unable to cancel via website or previous Twitter conversation, and then cuts me off. It's a mthly sim only, if I don't use it don't charge me - simples.

  • StephenKFrost1 Stephen (@StephenKFrost1) reported from Eastwood, England

    @virginmedia work done on our internet network has left us with weak security at the same time this was happening I had a new update on my Apple iPhone. Not ver happy with situation.

  • NikkiPearman Nikki Pearman 💙 (@NikkiPearman) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia I have an issue with my wifi signal being weak upstairs - until last 2 mths it was perfectly fine. However it’s impossible to speak with anyone - I don’t want the automated system or a broadband check as service is fine it’s just range. Unhappy customer

  • ilsonnut43 adrian dilks (@ilsonnut43) reported from Ilkeston, England

    @virginmedia why is my wifi so poor when I pay for the top bracket of broadband,my router is always cutting out ,really really fed up with it ?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TRGhaleb Thomas Ghaleb (@TRGhaleb) reported

    @virginmedia Cheers for cancelling my mobile services due to a 10 pence debt on an old sub-account despite the fact I'm paying far more on a monthly basis for a mobile and broadband. I live alone and was unable to make calls in an emergency yesterday. 10p

  • Teachermum9 Sarah Simm (@Teachermum9) reported

    @virginmedia sort it out- teacher trying to work from home with own children who need to be on zoom lessons. Customer service is awful!

  • philmonkey Phil Rogers (@philmonkey) reported

    over an hour, and 3 calls into @virginmedia to get to a monthly fee that's just a bit above what a new customer would pay - which still baffles me. But given the prevalence of 'full fibre' suppliers arriving in the South Bucks area, I expect the call in July 2022 is to cancel!

  • answersinreason Answers in Reason (@answersinreason) reported from Redhill, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I'm sure they thought long and hard about that one... Services continue to get worse, prices continue to go up under the guise of making them better but never actually do, only new customers get good deals and discount, loyalty not rewarded at all.

  • sarajlo Sara Neville-Relph (@sarajlo) reported

    @virginmedia your internet is crap. We have been trying to contact you since before Xmas!! #wtf #sortitout #returntosky

  • Wbkjm Kevin M (@Wbkjm) reported

    @virginmedia you wrote to me to say that service would be out today but no sign of work, service still on and service status page makes no mention. Is this still planned or has it been rescheduled? NG2

  • galgertron Greg Gallagher (@galgertron) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done that on the app and all says is “we’re trying to sort it out for you”, but no other info. Can you DM me and get someone to call me to sort this out? If they can remotely reboot his router that may help?

  • jenniseex Jenni Seex (@jenniseex) reported

    @virginmedia where unable to do anything to actually try and resolve the issue and we were going round in circles. I note there doesn’t seem to be the ability to cancel online?

  • bobsterp72 Bob Parker (@bobsterp72) reported

    @virginmedia what is the best number to talk to someone about our service? We’ve been a customer for 15 years and pay for the highest internet speed but it’s going down so often now we have to turn the router off 3-4 times a day 😔

  • christorch5 christian torch (@christorch5) reported

    @virginmedia Same robotic response as always yes I have!! How about you do your job and fix the same problem everyone’s had for years and pick up your phone
