  • EmzeeJaye Emily-jaye collins. (@EmzeeJaye) reported from Stafford, England

    Virgin media really need to pull their finger out. Don't boast a service that you simply cannot provide. What a bloody joke. #virginmedia #failmedia

  • miyajhay9 miya (@miyajhay9) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia I’m tired of shocking connection. I’m working from home and I need a stable internet connection, not one that keeps cutting out ever few minutes. You’re happy to take our money every month but whenever I call you never fix it

  • caitlinaimeep Caitlin Parker🧜🏼‍♀️🧜🏼‍♀️ (@caitlinaimeep) reported from Lichfield, England

    It’s like @virginmedia are trying to get people to upgrade their broadband during lockdown otherwise they’re gonna give you shit service 🧐🧐🧐

  • something_phil Philip John 🇪🇺 (@something_phil) reported from Lichfield, England

    There are going to be *weeks* of follow up at @virginmedia about how the hell they allowed their own status page to be tied to their infrastructure. Pretty useless if your status page goes down when you do.

  • AndySnill Andy Collins (@AndySnill) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @glesgapaul @virginmedia @IainDoesJokes @thewhitmore Yep I've never been one to let facts obscure a good joke!

  • dan04harris Dan Harris (@dan04harris) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia Hey @virginmedia I was expecting to receive call today at 12pm from somebody called John but I’m still waiting. Really starting to annoy me how bad your customer service is being!

  • AshMcFarlane95 Ash🌐 (@AshMcFarlane95) reported from Rugeley, England

    @virginmedia you internet service is down again

  • KittykatClaire Claire B 🙌🙌 (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    Oh No my internet isn't working and I only have a bit off data left. thank you @virginmedia its probably the worst time for you to break when we all have to stay in..

  • ChrisPresslie Chris (@ChrisPresslie) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Ive im hard wired and im port forwarding it should ******* work phoned up only to be told "oh we can't help with port forwarding" @virginmedia

  • Lysander_16 Lysander (@Lysander_16) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia For now everything seems to be okay. Just frustrating when you're trying to stream and the internet does down for 7 hours.

  • beckywvr_ Becky Weaver (@beckywvr_) reported from Albrighton, England

    @virginmedia Which would be fine, but it’s now been down for a further 40 minutes again and been lagging all morning. So it’s obviously far from fixed.

  • matthewaucote matthew aucote (@matthewaucote) reported from Lichfield, England

    @virginmedia Broadband been down all morning in Lichfiled area any idea of issue or timescale

  • Timtastic10IAR Paul Rooney (@Timtastic10IAR) reported from Rugeley, England

    @virginmedia And down it goes again 😂

  • Joninwhite Old and Gold (@Joninwhite) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @wickwarwolf @btsport One hour and a half wait on the phone today to cancel sports package on Virgin Media. If I want to add it back on it would take 2 minutes online. #virginmedia

  • YidBarmy David Rathband (@YidBarmy) reported from Burntwood, England

    Virgin Media customer service is non existent. 6 times today I’ve called to make changes to my package. I’ve waited on average 50 minutes each time only to be cut off each time. You can add to your package on line but you can’t remove anything. Just wait till normality returns...

  • dan04harris Dan Harris (@dan04harris) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    Hi @virginmedia just wanted to get in touch as just got off the phone with the bereavement team. All I wanted is to transfer the account to my mum as my Dad has died. But have been told you have to close the account losing our emails & leaving us without service for up to a week

  • sjbanks47 Simon Banks 🦁 (@sjbanks47) reported from Brownhills, England

    @virginmedia once again your online service status tells me there are no known issues in our area. I call to report I still have the intermittent fault I have had for over a week and told there is a fault in the area which may not be fixed until 12th March.

  • ChrisPresslie Chris (@ChrisPresslie) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Thanks for being no help @virginmedia

  • djneiljbham DJ Neil J Birmingham (@djneiljbham) reported from Wednesfield, England

    Loving all the people moaning their virgin media being down. Most being paid for by their parents! Stop moaning! Either they’ve had a major piece of equipment fail or they’ve been hacked. Be patient, and it will be sorted. Or move to another and only get slow 30mb broadband!

  • ChrisPresslie Chris (@ChrisPresslie) reported from Wednesfield, England

    If im hard wired and im port forwarding it should ******* work phoned up only to be told "oh we can't help with port forwarding" @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Your website is giving lots of ‘400’ page not found errors. I used the chat bot the other day.

  • geoffaitken01 Geoff A (@geoffaitken01) reported

    @jayrayner1 @virginmedia The problem must be serious and hard to fix. I have no connection to Virgin media at all, but in the world we live in today, with everything going on, this really is a 21c problem.

  • Extinguisherman Dale Watts (@Extinguisherman) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, even went through the ombudsman, from my own mistake o should of kept a log of outages and in which areas it was happening. I have done that for 7 weeks since, forwarded to o2 and was ignored!my local mast again reports ‘not working as it should’…….

    @virginmedia are you having problems in Bares right now?

  • abstractNurban Sohail Ratansi (@abstractNurban) reported

  • _rob_p_ Robin 💛💙 (@_rob_p_) reported

    @jackmoxley @jayrayner1 @virginmedia Community fibre came to our area recently and was great to ditch BT. Such a relief after months of pain of dealing with them. And them constantly blaming openreach but never any useful info

  • LouWhiteheadPA LouiseWPA (@LouWhiteheadPA) reported

    @virginmedia Just called that number and FYI it is giving conflicting information - that number says no service issues in my area, but your website says there ARE planned service issues in my area and they will be fixed by 3pm today. We still have no internet.
