    @virginmedia Hi. I can see there’s an ongoing issue with the TV in my area with fix date of 1600hrs 25th. This has been going on for over a week now & the blips/surges through the box & it constantly resetting is becoming really annoying & has even taken the wifi out sometimes.

    So frustrated with @virginmedia spend over an hour on hold only to be cut off by their customer service rep #whatcustomerservice #frustrated #zerocustomerservice

    @virginmedia My broadband is down it’s been down since yesterday and on the box all the lights go green and keep flashing every so often like it’s trying to gain back connection .

    @virginmedia And to re-emphasise what I’ve said countless times before; you’re wasting peoples time, because you don’t tell them that it is your router that causes most of the problems. Can’t believe @Ofcom allow this.

    @virginmedia You’re call centre is not helpful. I’ve spent 2.5 weeks trying to contact you. I am not cancelling the contract - you are- it’s not my fault you don’t provide my new house but you expect me ti@oay £300+ To cancel a contract that I want to keep- you r cancelling. Not me.

    GTT* (@Gturv) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia Do you have issues in MK42 area? My internet down, 2nd time in 3 days. Your service status says everything is good, I don't believe that for a minute.

  • RichardPFisher
    Richard Fisher (@RichardPFisher) reported from Wilby, England

    Yay! @vmbusiness has **** the bed once again, third time in a week. Going to have to put a smart switch on it so I can remote reset the router.

    @virginmedia hi just making sure your tech department would never phone up and not ask for the Bill payer first?? Or you don’t have a 01253 code call place?? Mother in law had 5 calls Saturday!!

    Garry Solomon (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia on a 200mbps download package and I’m averaging 9mbps this morning! I understand there might be heavier traffic at the moment, but we can’t do any work from home with such poor service!! #stayconnected I would if I could!!

  • Jagercraig
    Craig (@Jagercraig) reported from Saint Neots, England

    @virginmedia Ok I’ve ordered, but didn’t see the option to change delivery date, can you help?

  • Weanie4
    Weanie4🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Weanie4) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia why do you advertise high broadband speeds yet I never get over 17mbs more often in single figures, whenever I phone up it improves for 24hrs, your helpline is a waste of time and I regularly get outages as well, as in most days

  • johnait72020789
    John Aitken (@johnait72020789) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia why do I only get a notice saying channel failed when I watch sky sports channel live, I can watch any other channel you provide me and don’t have a issue. I have done everything that you tell me to do but it still keeps happening.

  • PC_Lawyer
    Chris Belcher (@PC_Lawyer) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia broadband down again in SG6 ... makes home working a pretty frustrating experience!

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done the factory reset and still having issues. Sky boxes need to be reconnected to wifi every day and I’ve checked it all out with Sky and it’s not a Sky problem. It’s a Virgin wifi issue.

  • WhiteShadowCos
    George 'guy with the coat' Massingham (@WhiteShadowCos) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I need to lower my broadband speed as im moving and Virgin isnt in the area i'm moving to but my parents need to retain it. I tried calling but call centres are closed and theres no obvious to do it on the app. Any help!

  • l_m_h_76
    lee hamilton (@l_m_h_76) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia your #internet is absolutely diabolical you may offer the fastest speed but pointless without a decent service

  • Just_Woodbridge
    Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I thought my issue was resolved yesterday, but today I’ve had an email saying something different. I text the number again, at 11.28am, the bot replied but nothing since then?!

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia my contract has finally been resolved. 3 hours of phone calls in 24-hrs (including phone being cut off 3 times) 6 hours of WhatsApp Failure to honour contract offers. Shambles of a company. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. #virginmedia #fail

    Pavlova (@uk_pav) reported

    @virginmedia 18 months loyal, 1 Gig, zero issues. Renewal offer: £33 for 125 Mbps (250 Volt) – worse than new deals. Customer loyalty clearly means nothing.

  • AmyHeppi
    Amy Heppingstall (@AmyHeppi) reported

    @virginmedia That’s all you ever do look into it never any action it improves for a few days then terrible it used to be such great service where has that service gone??

  • nick_rawlings2
    Nicholas Rawlings (@nick_rawlings2) reported

    @virginmedia #virginmedia are there any issues in the Orpington area? Broadband keeps dropping out. There's nothing on your status page.

  • NadineD_G
    Nadine_CCN (@NadineD_G) reported

    @virginmedia more than 24 hours of no internet service in the E4 area. I’m seeing people saying that this has gone on for days with them. How can we confirm that our service will be up and running by the suggested time? I have work to do and this is really causing a delay.

  • deanspread
    Deano (@deanspread) reported

    @virginmedia Well I’m at work now but it was working then going off for a couple minutes then back on all day. Then about 9pm went off for 20 mins then back on. Went on your page to check the service and it was saying nothing was wrong.

  • Samina_masood3
    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @VirginMedia We’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.

  • rouse_sue
    Sue Rouse💙 🇺🇦 (@rouse_sue) reported

    @virginmedia I have Netflix as part of my deal. I’ve been told 4 times that an email will be with me in 24 hours. Still no email after 8 days. Everyone promised but no delivery’s. This seems to be a regular issue.

  • Fraudly_
    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.

    Hey @virginmedia. Honour what your own self-service flow committed to when you took my £111. Build the written-channel route to Payments your Resolutions Team has admitted is needed. Default it in payment SMS for every customer.
