Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Belfast, Northern Ireland
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Belfast and nearby locations:
-
Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia @TaylorMod Yes we've checked, the world and its granny knows VM is down in Belfast but this has been since Monday now. Absolutely ridiculous. Cost me a fortune on data when I moved and VM kept getting the addres wrong, was well over a month without the service and this was 2 months ago.

John Bell (@johnpbell) reported from Bangor, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Broadband is very temperamental. I’ve tried all the suggestions, reset the hub etc. It fixes the issue temporarily but seems to often revert to very poor speeds. Hub 3. Sometimes speeds show as fine, but on all devices the speed is poor.
-
Adam McCalden (@adammccalden) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia since my virgin mobile UK signal has been shifted from piggyback Vodafone to @O2 it has been a complete disaster, constant signal dropping, constant WiFi calling cutting. This is before my account has been transferred to O2. Complete and utter rubbish
-
David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Yes. And another call already, that's 2 for today. I'm blocking both numbers. Terrible customer service practice.
-
Dermdog ☭ (@Dermo1888) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Never mind, send me my deadlock letter
-
Adrian Boyd (@boyd_ar) reported from Jordanstown, Northern Ireland@JAcheson_Eng @virginmedia I’m sure they all have issues at some point although I’ve had Sky Fibre Broadband and it’s been very good and the service support over the phone has been really excellent. I had an issue recently and it was sorted in 30 minutes over the phone.
-
SuzieWuzie (@mrssbarnard) reported from Cultra, Northern Ireland@CatrionaKing1 @virginmedia I'm a total tech idiot 🙈 It's a huge part of the reason companies like Virgin can take advantage
-
DAVIDBUZZ2904 (@DAVIDBUZZ2904) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland@virginmedia But you haven’t offered me a better deal I’ve contacted you and nothing but if I leave you and join back I can get the deal it’s a bit stupid I might just go to someone else if you can’t price match your own deal
-
Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland@virginmedia No! I've just spent 26 minutes trying to get through, so I'm just going to pester you on here instead. I've raised three separate complaints to no avail. My only recourse is public humiliation. For a communications company you're really very poor at it.
-
Michael Long (@CllrMichaelLong) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@superbowler4 @virginmedia They are terrible.
-
Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia No. YOU need to talk to me. YOU need to tell me what's going on. YOU need to sort out your woefully inadequate 'customer service'.
-
Lauren Blair♥ (@lilmissymoo90) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia how does one get a newer router does one have to leave and come back in the future ? My wifi is awful just ordered wifi extenders but we get like 35mbs upstairs on a 350mbs package :)
-
Rebecca Black (@RBlackPA) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Its sorted, I’m switching to another provider. I’ve never had such a poor customer service experience in my life
-
Conor Donnelly (@DonnellyWAFC) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland@virginmedia Hello, I have an ongoing issue with my Broadband Can you assist me please.
-
Sir Bee (@beezlebum) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland@virginmedia you've surpassed yourselves this time! 50 days without broadband and yet another promised date of reconnection passed with no communication or explanation. I refuse to waste another sunny weekend waiting for your useless 'customer services' to lie to me.
-
bertford no DMs (@bertford) reported from Newtownabbey, Northern Ireland@sabele26 @Kat_Bee_123 @virginmedia Terrible none of them have good customer service, sky's as bad.
-
David Phelan (@DavidPMet) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland.@virginmedia please can you stop calling me every day? Long term customer offered £45 per month renewal, got double the speed for half the price with @TalkTalk 👏🏼 Since then, repeated calls offering £20 per month package, should have rewarded loyalty to begin with! @Ofcom
-
Nadean (@nadean_ni) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland@virginmedia both tv and broadband have been down for well over 24 hours now. Not good enough! Any reason for this?
-

Dippy | Brig Content Creator (@Itsdippylive) reportedIn the same 28 April email, Virgin Media wrote: "a dedicated chat-based support route for customers with reasonable adjustments is needed... an area where we must improve." They wrote that 6 days ago. Today the next cycle broke.
-
Eden Gem (@edengem) reported@virginmedia Gadget Rescue overseas don’t really know how to help - plus 3x tech people. Please advise how to reach the cancel service team please. Thank you
-
George W (@Fraudly_) reported@virginmedia your online service is an absolute joke. You notify me of new monthly fee starting in May and I need to look at other packages if I want to change before new price takes effect. Only for your site to be riddled with errors and your bot to give me a broken link! With that link switching between error message and taking me right back to that same chat! And I shouldn't need to go round in circles chatting about an upgrade, much easier just doing it myself on your site. If it actually worked.
