  • ColletteLynn_ ¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England

    @Howard_Norton @Virgin I haven’t even managed to get through to @virginmedia yet despite multiple attempts and long holds to even comment on their actual customer service. The fact they are trying to charge me for something I have cancelled and haven’t used is beyond the joke already! #poorservice

  • kavi1238 kavi (@kavi1238) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Can u tell the area status in area 31. On the app it sats all good. But my wifi is turning off and on. And being really ******* slow

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia That was a wired connection. It downloaded in the end (all 92GB), I will keep a lookout for issues.

  • lizdeoli liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia I have rung twice waited over 2 hours and still can’t sort out a request to cancel an account for someone who has learning difficulties and is escaping domestic violence. Disgraceful

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely disgusting service from Virgin. Rang to get refund for sky sports since lockdown and no help whatsoever. And I can’t make a complaint apparently as it will be automatically closed!!

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I managed to get through on the other number as i had forgotten my old account no, the bill is paid and i now have an installation date. I appreciate your help.

  • leezaloops Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia No I didn’t and I don’t remember receiving one. I have checked all my emails from you and nothing. I rang a couple of days ago to ask for a discount and was basically told to get lost. I spend £100 a month with you guys and was shocked at the service. Account name Lisa Morley.

  • liam_garwood grwd 🦅 (@liam_garwood) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my email on iOS, please help

  • PaulEmmett2 Paul Emmett (@PaulEmmett2) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Bout time, been having problems for the last week, even when I spoke to someone on phone and via text services I was informed there is no problem and I will have to put up with it

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I have something called a TP Adapter? in my room. When it is able to come through that the signal is brilliant, but for some reason it is not coming through right now.

  • lizdeoli liz de oliveira (@lizdeoli) reported from Sudbury, England

    @virginmedia Amazing how you won’t sort out the problem with the account holder but you’ll speak to someone else about the account without the account holder’s permission!

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @krista_leia I don't know what to believe anymore, he told me on Sunday that Virgin Media were comping to fix it but it's now so bad i cannot even connect it. I can get wi-fi installed here just for me, but you usually need a phone line and the cost is going to be fairly high.

  • gavmeakings Gav Meakings (@gavmeakings) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia do you have an idea on how Long services will be down in IP2 area?

  • mr_plantgeek Michael Perry Mr Plant Geek® (@mr_plantgeek) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia I am having problems with google nest setup

  • FolkardSimon Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry i will not be able to as it is the landlord who is the customer. Thanks though i appreciate it.

  • WiseOlMurph Murph (@WiseOlMurph) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Anyone in Ipswich struggling with Virgin Media speeds currently? It’s awful paying all this money for absolute shite speeds.

  • lbjdenny Leon Denny (@lbjdenny) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Issues have been far from fixed!! My router rebooted itself 5 times today. This is not acceptable when I could be working on customer systems attempting to support them with their IT when I can't even rely on my own ISP to deliver a decent service is embarrassing!

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

  • only_jokering Adam (@only_jokering) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia all our smart devices are now not responding because "they are too far away from our HUB 3.0". This is according to the diagnostic tool. Thing is, they are the same distance as before, and they used to work on the same router. Help?

  • positivesarah Sarah 'Morgenmuffel' Clark (@positivesarah) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Down again....

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • kieronjconroy Kieron Conroy (@kieronjconroy) reported

    Recieved a letter from @virginmedia saying they're raising my already expensive internet bill by an extra £7?! ********?!

  • Fairyjayne Jayne Gross (@Fairyjayne) reported

    .@virginmedia ongoing issues since Monday in M30. Internet keeps dropping out though your service indicator says it is fixed.

  • SteeloPlays Steelo (@SteeloPlays) reported

    Another letter from @virginmedia.. Warning me of a £15 PER MONTH price increase... Safe to say that won't be happening. Time to finally ditch them I think and go with a stand alone ISP. I also love the desperate play for sympathy 'our prices have gone up too'. **** off.

  • Rhieeec Rhiannon Cadd (@Rhieeec) reported

    Absolutely ridiculous service from @virginmedia! Meant to have Virgin installed last week between 8-1PM, the guy said he couldn't do it because he needed two people because of height and ladders, after my partner being on the phone for an hour, that someone will be sent out -

  • smithy25x Smithy25x (@smithy25x) reported

    internet should be back on by 21:00 it’s been down since 11:30 @virginmedia what a joke!

  • WoodBenjamin11 Ben Wood (@WoodBenjamin11) reported

    Why is dealing with any @virginmedia customer care like pulling teeth! They must have the worst customer services known to man!

  • AlistarOP 🌱 Alistar (@AlistarOP) reported

    No internet, TV or phone 🫠but @virginmedia site says service is fine and to just check my cables (which look fine)

  • stwrily ella (@stwrily) reported

    love the fact that i haven't been streaming for a week and my internet is still not fixed. please @virginmedia i beg you to fix my internet so i can play valorant c:

  • ianrgalloway Ian Galloway (@ianrgalloway) reported

    ******* hell, virgin media customer services have to be the worst thing masquerading as a business I have ever dealt with in my life. Unbelievably **** on every single level. @virginmedia

  • TheAprilEdwards April Edwards (@TheAprilEdwards) reported

    Hey @virginmedia can I have my broadband back? I have a live stream in 90 minutes. I can't disappoint the community...when will my outage get fixed?
