  • Phil_Donoghue1 Phil Donoghue (@Phil_Donoghue1) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia you literally must be THE most unreliable failing ISP in all the land… Yet another outage which you laughably call “improving our network” and you’ve never provided even half the speed we pay for. About time OFCOM held this company to book!

    Re Virgin Media Live TV outage. Internet still working as is Netflix, Amazon Prime and My Recordings. Catch-up/binge day!!

  • M4rtinBooker Martin Booker (@M4rtinBooker) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson how bad are your installation teams in Blackpool! They can’t even put a cable in the ground in 6 weeks at my property, think somebody needs to check on your engineers to see what they do all day! #busydoingnothing #virginmedia #broadband 👎🤬

  • Phil_Donoghue1 Phil Donoghue (@Phil_Donoghue1) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia Shameful… latest update, we hope to resolve the issue by 4pm tomorrow! That’ll be over 24 hours down and you’ll still expect your money! Awesome service 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    @virginmedia after having my email hacked and new password not working, you tell me you’ll get back to me in 3 to 5 days!! How is this compatible with modern day communications? Just not good enough!

  • R_to_the_D The Mad Hatter (@R_to_the_D) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia any news on where you’re expanding your network? I’ve been trying for years to get you to cable our estate and still nothing despite the main road being cabled up

  • SA57EPH Steph (@SA57EPH) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia what’s the best department to speak to about terrible internet even your virgin connect app can’t find our internet!

  • Christerphurr Chris Mann (@Christerphurr) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia It just says to book an engineer, but I don’t want to book it incase it’s an external issue which will be fixed

  • ylilxanoi 🦥 I o n a 🌻 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England

    Imagine paying £45 a month for Virgin Media and it never freaking works 🤮🤮🤮

  • Libra_Comms Ali Gudgeon 💙 (@Libra_Comms) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia have come home from work to find my internet is down and remains down. Are there any issues in PR2 9TT?

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia I’ve contacted after last months bill and the bill before and before….I get told that I won’t be getting chased for the difference but I don’t understand why you just can’t get it right and fix it

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • Christerphurr Chris Mann (@Christerphurr) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my broadband has just gone off is there a known issue in my area or do I need to book an engineer ?

  • shanereeves1982 shane reeves (@shanereeves1982) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Must be some issue been off since about 10 am but yet internet not affected

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • scothubbard Scot Hubbard (@scothubbard) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to cancel my order for fibre broadband but cannot get through on the phone lines or face an endless wait when I do. I have been very disappointed with the whole experience so far.

  • adrian03272809 Adrian (@adrian03272809) reported

    @virginmedia service down at 14:00, back up at 16:00. now down again. Terrible service.

  • haynetta Sophia Haynes (@haynetta) reported

    @virginmedia I have previously been in touch on that number and sometimes it’s taken several weeks to get a response. Then they go through the motions of checking my router is set up. No resolution. This is not a helpful next step.

  • snxlxphant Emma 🕸 (@snxlxphant) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried to many times but they just say theres no issues and that I need to pay for boosters?

  • NeilParkes13 Neil Parkes (@NeilParkes13) reported

    @virginmedia Guess what just stopped working again! Both boxes in the house both saying there's "No signal".

  • CarolinePerry71 Caroline (@CarolinePerry71) reported

    @virginmedia If she phones 150 it takes hours to get through to an automated useless message. Why can't you just help or phone her. Where is the box she was promised ? If you DM me I will give you her details

  • wunderlasss Procrastination Station (@wunderlasss) reported

    @virginmedia Any idea how I arrange moving home? I log in to my account, follow the links and it says I should speak to you but there's no phone number or contact details. I just go around in circles where it tells me to sign in and I already am.

  • RocketLeagueHi2 Rocket League Highlights (@RocketLeagueHi2) reported

    @virginmedia I want to cancel my broadband and mobile package, my reduced price contract is about to end and the price it will go up to is nowhere near competitive. The phone number has a hold which is way too long. Is there an email I can contact to look at my cancellation?

  • matthewoneii ***** Gusto (@matthewoneii) reported

    @virginmedia corrupt bastards fix my wifi

  • Osullivpjp Peter O'Sullivan (@Osullivpjp) reported

    @virginmedia changed contracts 231220 told to cheaper tariffs. They didn’t change billsovercharged £77 over 2 months. Legal misrepresentation Tried to complain. Tried to stop me doing it. Customer Services said they didn’t have a complaints dept to be put through too. Disgusted
