    @virginmedia I've tried rebooting router. You have to select alexa in wifi settings and that's when it says your internet may not be connected. My mobile no problem.

  • LaurenRach95 Lauren Browne (@LaurenRach95) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Tried to ring numerous times now. The first time he was very rude. When I finally got through to someone else yesterday the gentleman told me someone would ring me back and no body has. Now I'm stuck on hold... Again. I think I'll be leaving.

    Sorry for the stream issues tonight and having to cut it short but @virginmedia is being intermittent at best and drop my connection 3 times so I had to call it a night. Hopefully all will back to normal tomorrow after @That_King_Thing recording 👍🏻

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • etherealmind Greg Ferro - A Simplicitarian (@etherealmind) reported

    @AndyDavies @virginmedia In this case it’s EE 4G in rural area. Sometimes I use Three 4G. I don’t bother with 5G, the range is so poor its not worth the hassle and extra antenna costs. Note: I am using a mounted external antenna. Makes a significant performance improvement.

  • DavidMa51132309 David Mat (@DavidMa51132309) reported

    @virginmedia Obviously not otherwise we wouldnt be having this conversation. The strange thing about all this is if you go to facebook there is a group for virgin media experience and there are more than 500 comments saying the same thing. Is it really possible to cancel?

  • The_Hird Have you Hird? aka Andrew (@The_Hird) reported

    @virginmedia it was cancelled by txt yesterday at0916. I have called today, she rebooted the router and said she'll call back to arrange a new appointment. of course not a peep that that was now 2 hours ago! it should be a complaint already but I doubt its been logged

  • th3nightking ben cumpsty (@th3nightking) reported

    @GBateson23 @youfibre @virginmedia If they’re not giving you the guaranteed speed, that may be grounds to leave with no held to terms, only thing is you gotta give them time to fix

  • Browbar1 Rob (@Browbar1) reported

    @virginmedia Well, yer service status checker isn’t working now either, are ye taking the proverbial now.

  • WhiteHartMart WhiteHartMart (@WhiteHartMart) reported

    @virginmedia so 6 months after agreeing a BB monthly cost and despite monthly complaints to your WhatsApp team and an ignored formal complaint direct you are STILL taking more than the agreed contract cost. Last chance to sort VM. @Ofcom

  • glanj_ Glenn (@glanj_) reported

    @virginmedia Install scheduled today, so I called on Monday (30 min call) to ensure wifi booster discs would be coming out with the engineer (assured they would be). Unsurprisingly, no discs today. I live in an old house, with terrible coverage

  • leahleahh Leah Shepherd (@leahleahh) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried that but it says I can’t cancel it online

  • BuNgLe_Ali Bungle (@BuNgLe_Ali) reported

    @Ofcom @virginmedia I can't raise a complaint surely this is breaking some rules and regulations?

  • gogowhippet Matt Rowe (@gogowhippet) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @virginmedia Still intermittent and unstable so significantly affecting business usage. According to a collage of yours this is a known unresolvable fault caused by fundamental router and firewall issue caused the equipment you provided. Full refund and relice from contact has been agreed.
