  • Grahamthecabbie Graham Long (@Grahamthecabbie) reported from Romford, England

  • macbvth 🎃 Spooky, Scary Skele-Sam 👻 (@macbvth) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @HooiWanV @virginmedia It's ridiculous isn't it? They even admitted they were having issues BC they are currently wfh and we were like YES that's why we're trying to resolve this for ourselves!!! The level of disconnect is off the charts 😡 thank u for the name tip!!

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia just been on hold to your customer services team for almost an hour, the call has just been cut off. We have no internet, but you’ve still taken payment. Can you get someone to call me ASAP please before I report you.

  • IIndigoMouseRH Rachel Hayden (@IIndigoMouseRH) reported from London, England

    Internet went down yesterday and suppose to of been fixed at 5pm once again no internet or landline. @virginmedia any chance of this actually working??

  • ako_essex The Gaffa🔌 (@ako_essex) reported from London, England

    Virgin media is absolutely awful in every aspect

  • juliecason ✨💎Jules💎✨ (@juliecason) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia your WiFi is so bad!!!!!!!! Trying to work from home this week is almost impossible. Fuming.

  • redgm99 Gaz the Red (@redgm99) reported from East Ham, England

    Hey @virginmedia - what is wrong with your internet 'service' in London E16? And do you have any plans to fix it or are you happy just taking our money for nothing?😠

  • hogartha Anne Hogarth (@hogartha) reported from Loughton, England

    @virginmedia Certainly am. I'm a Virgin customer 🙄

  • trousseaudiary Merrell-Ann Bradnock (@trousseaudiary) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia is the internet down in the RM3 area?

  • paulaphoto1 Paul Andrews (@paulaphoto1) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia - no internet for over an hour. Can’t speak to anyone. Downloaded an app that was useless. No support whatsoever apart from turn it off and on 👎🏻

  • Rosey_8 Barry Rose (@Rosey_8) reported from Brentwood, England

    @virginmedia hi could please let me know how I can cancel my contract ?? My bills are about £30/40 a month higher than most people I know

  • OlaAgbaimoni Ola Agbaimoni (@OlaAgbaimoni) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Wow I’m shocked. Clearly a lot of people will have gadgets that can only support 2Ghz which was available as a separate SIDD on the hub 3. If you were not going to support it you owed customers forewarning of this fact.

  • tosman30 Tom🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚒ (@tosman30) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia have an error code (C130) and not getting a signal, what does this mean?

  • contact400 Morris the Cat. (@contact400) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia your service is horrible, had no or constantly dropping internet? RM12 area. @sky

  • RumblesOfSteel Dr David Hardman (@RumblesOfSteel) reported from Stratford, England

    @virginmedia Hello, I'm in E15 and my broadband connection has vanished. Is it an area problem?

  • onemistert Mr T (@onemistert) reported from London, England

    @jayrayner1 @virginmedia If the service isn’t down in the area then the fault could simply be resolved by restarting the hub. I guess you’ve done that already?

  • Ishaniem ℐ𝓈𝒽𝒶𝓃𝒾ℯ (@Ishaniem) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia would have been nice if you told me about the outage in my area before my internet stopped working in the middle of a meeting.....

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Skynet_TX Skynet (@Skynet_TX) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, I do understand that it is Disney who are pulling the plug, but I will have to consider if our Virgin service is still worth the money, as I was already thinking things were getting a bit expensive, and now I'm losing one of the channels I watch the most.

  • x7z112 x7z1 (@x7z112) reported

    @virginmedia there's enough people reporting the same issue already. most going unresolved. It's not our hub that's the issue, it's something to do with virgins infrastructure since covid hit. Yet your people refuse to acknowledge this.

  • dw644122 I’ll say it. (@dw644122) reported

    @Ash_Attack1979 @virginmedia I love the way @virginmedia pays people to post this ****!!!

  • michelle010516 Chelle Belle (@michelle010516) reported

    @virginmedia Yold me via app not taking any more registrations. The signal in the bedroom is so bad, that im barely getting one bar if signal.

  • BKCK109 KKB18 (@BKCK109) reported

    @virginmedia Disgusting customer service. Why has an engineer had to advise me when I have been speaking to customer service. I expect this to be escalated immediately and attendance tomorrow at the very latest. Completely unacceptable that I have waited all day for nothing

  • GreenDolphin14 Green Dolphin (@GreenDolphin14) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just switched it off and on again and it’s cycling through the start up lights. Before that the base light was on white as normal. Netflix still works on the tv with the hub plugged in but the network does not show up on any device

  • x7z112 x7z1 (@x7z112) reported

    @virginmedia past few months internet cuts out every few minutes even with ethernet. your forums are flooded with the same complaints. impossible to game like this. it's clearly something on your end for this many people to be having an issue. Has it at least been acknowledged?

  • GarbleYt Angry ruv (@GarbleYt) reported

    @virginmedia @CherylHoleQueen **** pride month pride month is a ******* stupid month the worst month ever

  • josephIowe JOSEPH 💎 (@josephIowe) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been told by 3 different people that I’d be getting a new router because mines broken and 3 times it never turned up

  • Exfizzixteach McGinty (@Exfizzixteach) reported

    @virginmedia 3 years too late, you bloody awful ghouls.
