Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England@LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.
-
Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England@virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

-
Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all
-
Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England@virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?
-
Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England@StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, EnglandAnyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking.

-
Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Croí Na hÉireann (@na_croi) reported@daphmc_ @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Not rattled at all. Any game v The ABs was always at the very best for Ireland a 50/50 game. We could have won that game after being 14-0 down but just left ourselves too much to do after a slow start. Disappointed but not rattled.
-
mr b (@uxbridgeblade) reported@virginmedia when are you going to fix the broadband issue in ub9 6be? It’s been dreadful since Monday 20th July
-
Rachel (@NitonCalling) reported@virginmedia Is there an issue with your email servers? I’m getting the odd few emails but know I’ve not received others and not showing on webmail either
-
Jags Arthurson (@JagsArthurson) reported@virginmedia You would love to help me, but you can't. Your response will be, "I'm afraid I can only apologise, sir, but that's the way it is. Take it or leave it."
-
Mark 🇬🇧🏴 (@MrMarkW67) reported@virginmedia I’m really struggling with my Wi-Fi coverage at home. I have a security camera mounted right above my window, but it constantly drops connection due to weak signal. To make matters worse, I get virtually no Wi-Fi signal at all when I am sitting in my back garden, which is really frustrating. Given how close these areas are to the house, I shouldn't be losing connection like this. Could someone please check my Hub settings/signal or advise on getting Wi-Fi Pods to fix these dead zones? Thanks,
-
kieran Phillpot (@K_Phillpot) reported@virginmedia shocking shocking behaviour from your colleagues on hold for 26 mins then I explain my issue your guys just hang up??
-
only2genders (@0nlytwogenders) reported@Ofcom can you please investigate @virginmedia I inquired about their service and then declined, since they’ve called me twelve times in two days, I have now had to block their number @richardbranson
-
🌈april🐾 (@77razr) reportedIm back online. Spent hours troubleshooting our new router which was only doing Ethernet and not wireless. I lug my pc downstairs to check the settings. OUR PRINTED PASSWORD IS MISSING TWO ******* CHARACTERS **** VIRGIN MEDIA **** YOU
-
Asha rollawin (@quizrollawin) reported@virginmedia I'm a former customer and want to make a complaint but this isn't possible online without having a VM account - so how can people complain as former customers who are owed money?
-
Shahar Mor (@ShhrMor) reported@Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia TBH, I'm not sure what POM wants. Would he rather the ref penalized the Irish for these "minor" breakdown infringements? His "coaching" actually helped Ireland slow the ball down without being penalized. Not to mention at least 3 yellows that were not given to them...
