  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It's the same place & situation as yesterday, and, once again, after a few hours of no signal, once I actually Tweet about it, it suddenly reappears! No worries here now, ta.

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted my phone earlier, no effect. Not actually had to call or text anyone today, but my signal icon has said 'Emergency Calls Only' all day. I'll definitely check that signal strength link though, thanks.

  • tryfbellamy tryf (@tryfbellamy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia gunna sort your shit internet out or what

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @TrainedPengling @virginmedia The problem I have with this, is that whenever their broadband has gone down, so had my mobile with them at same time. Like when it all went down nationwide earlier this month. Having free 4g when you actually can't connect is kinda pointless lol

  • AnthonyyBurke Anthony (@AnthonyyBurke) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia yo, anyway to cancel the TV part of my package, without having to ring, being on hold for ages, yawn.

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No, everything on there is telling me 'very good'. But! Ironically, during this very exchange, my signal has popped up (although it's now not as strong as when I started writing this Tweet). Looks like me looking at the website has scared it into working. :D

  • SuperFlySimon Simon Burkinshaw (@SuperFlySimon) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why should I have to pay when I’m not being able to use the service I pay for

  • tal_kev kev adams (@tal_kev) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia come on now,This is getting pathetic now.trying to watch a film on Netflix and it's buffering all the time.15mps supposed to be 100mps.absolute joke.should be able to cancel contract as I am not getting what I pay for#falseadvertising#lyingthroughyourteeth

  • w47carr Mrs c (@w47carr) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia are you aving problems with ITV channel mines gone off in the s70 area

  • pipathon Richard Milnes (@pipathon) reported from Ossett, England

    Decided to leave @virginmedia today after ringing them up. Great service no reason to leave other than I need to be a “new customer” to access the best deals. My monthly bill more than doubled. Hello @NOWTV or @SkyUK I think.....

  • nathandainty Nathan Dainty (@nathandainty) reported from Sheffield, England

    @sky @virginmedia hey @SkyUK You should tell your customer service: “Online, mail and telephone order customers have the right to cancel their order for a limited time even if the goods aren’t faulty. Sales of this kind are known as ‘distance selling’…

  • wilcock_steve steve wilcock (@wilcock_steve) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Don’t apologise fix it!! 8 days is an absolute shambles!!! Peoples lives revolve around emails now!! Bank details, fraud warnings etc

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia what's with my phone telling me I can't visit sites verify I'm over 18 never had that before

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia Mobile never had it before

  • Claredo91857219 Clare doyle (@Claredo91857219) reported from Barnsley, England

    @Alroblade @virginmedia Who you gone to. I need to kick them into touch. Crap service and a rip off price that gets money expensive each year x

  • Colderthananice Maxine Spencer (@Colderthananice) reported from Mexborough, England

    @MetLineDriver @virginmedia Remember they were on my bad company list

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....I just want to cancel Premier Sports. The guy who answered after 30 mins was polite but your system crashed twice. Not sure it's been cancelled and don't have another spare 30 mins to call again

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Nothing has happened today, I'm just commenting on your offer to give all broadband customers free mobile 4g when your broadband goes down. Whenever my broadband had gone down, so has my cellular connection also.

  • heaton2111 John Heaton (@heaton2111) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia The service seems to have been interrupted again. Been fine all week.

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....it's about time that you had a service where you cancel part of your package via your TV.....30 mins on hold isn't funny😡

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • DlanodGierg Donald Greig (@DlanodGierg) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks. I will it’s about the 6 visit though. Engineer turns up, says he can’t fix it, promises to escalate and we never hear from them again.

  • allymcgeorge Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported

    @madebygoogle can I get some help to work out why nest/Chromecast won't connect to wifi. @virginmedia being unresponsive

  • M_Rutter Michael Rutter (@M_Rutter) reported

    @virginmedia Your agent says he has put in an escalation. I had to mash */# because everything was pushing me to the broken status page. Your engineering teams are deliberating resetting the clock to make the outage seem less bad, and your store your password in plaintext. Astonishingly bad

  • VeryGrumpyKev Kev (@VeryGrumpyKev) reported

    @virginmedia Well if you weren’t sending **** to me we wouldn’t be in this position would we? I’ve given you enough details to take the appropriate action without wasting further time on this with you.

  • nadianizar Nadia Nizar (@nadianizar) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently there are intermittent issues in the area. Ironic when only a couple of weeks ago you sent a text stating you were doing upgrades in the region... #CustomerService #CX

  • Galactic_Works Geedoubleyou (@Galactic_Works) reported

    @virginmedia Would be nice once in a while to speak to a UK based adviser who knows what I'm talking about, isn't rude and interrupting cutting me off every sentence, so rude

  • chrismevans Chris M Evans (@chrismevans) reported

    @virginmedia No, no problem here! :0) I was pointing out how expensive BT was in comparison to VM.

  • petraraspel Petra Borzynski (@petraraspel) reported

    @virginmedia Of course we have spoken to the team. We get everything from restarting/resetting the router (which might fix it for a bit, or it might not) to “Fault in the area, you‘ll need to wait“ (while the status always shows everything is ok). It’s just not good enough.

  • petraraspel Petra Borzynski (@petraraspel) reported

    .@virginmedia and they will be again on the 17th. And yet, you state all is fine. This has been an ongoing issue for MONTHS, and you are unable to solve it. Why are we paying for 350 Mbps when we are not even getting a 10th of that? Borders on fraud. Angry doesn’t cover it.

  • sebburtenshaw Seb Burtenshaw-Snellgrove (@sebburtenshaw) reported

    @virginmedia your service status page reports that there are no issues in our area, but multiple people in our area have reported loss of internet connection. Is there any way to find out what the resolution time will be?
