  • AlexOrr1 Alex (@AlexOrr1) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia 1. not usually one to gripe about customer service. But I waited in for 5 hours today for one of your engineers to come round to install broadband (between 1-6). No show, no texts/emails from you to say they would be late or where they were...

  • JakeNicholas04 JakeNicholas (@JakeNicholas04) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia lag and poor internet connection

  • alittleredpanda viki ✨✨✨ (@alittleredpanda) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I don’t have any internet on a wired connection either. And that link says there’s nothing wrong with my service

  • jph98 Jon Holloway 📫 (@jph98) reported from Chipping Sodbury, England

    @virginmedia quite obviously struggling with internet in the last few weeks. Frustrating and highly annoying for those who depend on it for their businesses. The incredulousness is the worst part. #internet #home #wifi #virgin

  • JakeNicholas04 JakeNicholas (@JakeNicholas04) reported from Keynsham, England

    @virginmedia fix your internet

  • MattScript Pastor Matt (@MattScript) reported from Bradley Stoke, England

    @virginmedia Yes. It doesn't work on any of my devices. TV. Laptop. Phone. The phone works on 4G and the laptop works on another network. Just not when connected to Virgin Media.

  • AmyFilton Amy Atkinson (@AmyFilton) reported from Filton, England

  • lukejherridge luke beedle (@lukejherridge) reported from Kingswood, England

    A phone call to @SkyUK today to cancel! Had enough of this crap! Can’t watch anything on demand without it freezing every 5 minutes! What’s @bt_uk like or @virginmedia

  • An_SEP_Field Laurence (@An_SEP_Field) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia aaarrrggghhh!!!! No phone service!!!!

  • MattScript Pastor Matt (@MattScript) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia It still doesn't work. The TiVo Netflix app worked briefly last night but that threw the same error eventually. Everything else works fine.

  • Rockchic65 LM❤️ (@Rockchic65) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I've recieved my new mobile bill this morning, but it's far too much to be correct. I cannot log on to my account online. Keeps sending me in a loop to sign in, new password etc.. Help me please.

  • alittleredpanda viki ✨✨✨ (@alittleredpanda) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia hey my internet’s gone down (green lights are flashing on the hub) and I can’t sign into my account online to see if there’s a problem.

  • millarddvd DAVE MILLARD (@millarddvd) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia so will we get an apology or comp for not being able to use the phone for anything for hours. Chester to Bristol today. And no updates. Truly woeful service.

  • kerry_georgina Georgina Kerry (@kerry_georgina) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Yes it says there is an issue that should be fixed by 3pm today but it said the same thing yesterday

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • FoulgerBrooke Brooke Foulger (@FoulgerBrooke) reported

    @virginmedia Another outage affecting my ability to work. It causes me stress and anxiety as well as money to have to connect to a mobile hotspot. This has frequently happened and yet I have not received any compensation or deduction to my bills. It is not acceptable

  • plumfairy72 Katie (@plumfairy72) reported

    @virginmedia @SoniaPoulton We have daily issues with you. Internet is always dropping. We complain and nothing is ever resolved.

  • AfroPeat AfroPeat 🇿🇦🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@AfroPeat) reported

    @ItsMatt_Again @virginmedia I'm so glad I left them! Their customer service is appalling!

  • HOD6IE Tom Hodgkinson (@HOD6IE) reported

    @SenseMakesNone @virginmedia I never said there was 24/7 support. You really think there’s no one there at all? No Dev engineers, no server staff, no in-live services? Just because the person who runs the Twitter account doesn’t start until 8am is no excuse for the lack of update when there’s an outage.

  • SlowPsycho SlowPsycho (@SlowPsycho) reported

    @SlimNasty2013 @Misterjunkz @virginmedia Seems to be a national issue; although we have connectivity here. I wonder how the VoIP landlines are coping now they have forced them on us?

  • dieselking69 Patrick James (@dieselking69) reported

    @virginmedia People should look into Grain Fibre that is being rolled out across the UK. Really good speeds and much better customer service.

  • SenseMakesNone SENSE MAKES NONE™ (@SenseMakesNone) reported

    @CharlieBugabuga @HOD6IE @virginmedia I agree. There should be. Especially when most people in the UK work from 9-6 etc, they don't have time to ring Virgin if there's an issue.

  • darkkai3 Darkkai3 (@darkkai3) reported

    @SenseMakesNone @virginmedia Damn. Thinking back to my time working in service, I'd have killed for a button that could tell people where the milk is, or, in fact, no, it's not our fault the beach is closed...

  • KazzyAnnie1 Karen Simpson 💙 (🥀EX-LABOUR MEMBER🥀) (@KazzyAnnie1) reported

    @virginmedia If it were a one off that wouldnt be an issue but when the speed is consistently 💩 it's just not good enough

  • TheMrDarn Darnie (@TheMrDarn) reported

    @virginmedia are you aware of an issue that is affecting broadband services for Virgin Media customers as well as your contact centres? Are your teams currently working to identify and fix the problem as quickly as possible? And do you apologise to those customers affected?
