Nick Miller 🇺🇦 (@NickMillerUK) reported from South Ockendon, England@virginmedia somehow you have reset my Dad’s Virgin media box, LAN seems to be off and the wifi on it is back on. This is rubbish because we have network setup there with much better hardware than your box. Now none of it works and I am hundreds of miles from his house. Why?

Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
🌸 🙀 Teresa Cooper (@Teresacooper) reported@virginmedia Virgin media are screwing their customers over. There is no way an engineer takes this many days to fix a large outage. Many disabled customers are put in danger bc their equipment & emergency equipment use Virgin. They charge a lot of money for a terrible service.
-
Simon (@cleggy1966) reported@virginmedia customer service is an absolute shambles. Had an appointment with an engineer for this morning due to issues in HD4 and because the wider issue has been resolved, you cancelled my appointment and didn’t even tell me. I had a separate issue to the outage. Shocking
-
markrmifsud (@markrmifsud) reported@virginmedia Now it's tomorrow 12:00 thats approaching 3 days with no service
-
megb (@Gbarch1) reported@virginmedia Ok, how about replying to my many messages? We are close to the 48 hour compensation deadline for loss of service and with an apparent 'fix' planned for Monday at 12 you are going to owe alot of people.
-
Steve Hilditch (@SteveHilditch) reportedWell done virginmedia. ‘Intermittent signal in your area’ during the penalty shoot out of the champions league final. Missed most of it. Not impressed.
-
Wirtz machine (@DavidVaughan5) reported@virginmedia My virgin media phone allows incoming calls but every time I phone out its showing as busy? I cant get through to speak to anyone to fix this?
-
Jeannie (@jeanniecorby) reported@virginmedia hey team, any idea when the issues in EX3 / Exeter area will be fixed? Currently have an outage 😭
-
markrmifsud (@markrmifsud) reported@virginmedia The time to fix is pushed back nearly everything I check
-
Sam Tilston (@samtilston) reportedThis isn't just a bad press cycle for Virgin Media O2. We are tracking a specific pattern of synthetic 'outage' reports designed to trigger algorithmic short-selling and erode public trust in UK telecoms infrastructure during a sensitive regulatory window.
-
DAVID BUNTING (@DBPV80) reported@EdwardJDavey I watch it free on Virgin Media who are allowing free access to finals. Last final. But there are bigger issues in the country! You are just a poodle for the PM!
