-
Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England@virginmedia We got the first bill, the customer service guy was still answering my calls and he promised we wouldn’t be charged for TV. We were! Our next bill still has TV on and he is not replying to emails, texts or voicemails. One of the reasons we agreed to switch was personal service
-
Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England@virginmedia We discussed the Oomph package which I initially agreed to then changed my mind within the 14 days, informed the customer service guy, by phone, text and email, he said he would cancel. The engineer came and documented that TV had been refused and therefore didn’t install
-

Oliver Dean #TeamLH (@ollieinleeds) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia you must have the most unreliable internet service in the UK. Several times a year it goes down for a full working day. Again today, "Unplanned Outage" yet your van was here within seconds. Unplanned my arse. Compensate my loss of earnings! #poorService
-
Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported from Knottingley, EnglandI think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.
-
Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

Paul (the original Ossett Terrier 🐶) (@0ssettTerrier) reported from Ossett, England@carltonnash @virginmedia Good luck! Unless they're trying to retain your business, they're as bad as @sky
-
simon parkinson (@parky1021) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia WiFi constantly dropping out. How do I fix this plz
-
-
John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.
-
Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful
-
Sam Millington (@cranworth791) reported from Rawmarsh, England@virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.
Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
SloopJonF (@FinyetJon) reportedSo my guess is that @virginmedia doesn't have a back up to their main site provided by a different supplier. Hence why their status page is also down and they're not posting updates on twitter. #virginmedia
-
Alex McGinlay (@Alex_McGinlay) reportedIs @virginmedia still having broadband issues? I seem to be having a VERY skittish connection tonight. It's definitely nowhere near full speed. In the Glasgow area.
-
Rob - @apex@androiddev.social (@apex2504) reported@virginmedia Kindly let me know how I can cancel my VM service when neither your website nor your phone lines are working.
-
Brendan Walker (@bemb0) reported@virginmedia I’ve been with virgin media for over 5 years and this is the first issue I have had. The package I’m on is cheaper than the competition as well. Everyone on here acting like they have never been inconvenienced before. It happens. It’ll be fixed. Get over it.
-
Gillian Atkins (@mortis1978) reported@virginmedia Have had on and off Internet/WiFi since yesterday and can't even report it as your app and website says its not working, in Greenock Scotland
-
Laura Cox (@LauraCo70598778) reported@virginmedia Terrible service all round! Our WiFi has been poor for months with poor connectivity! Constantly drops off but there’s nothing that Virgin can do! Time to rethink our provider?!
-
Waheed Mahmood (@waheed04) reported@virginmedia It's all about expansion of the business and customer service or any service a poor secondary consideration

Darrall Darcy 🇺🇦 (@Dazdarcy) reported@virginmedia You charged me for late payment most recently - which is fair enough, I'll be charging you for a lost days productivity. Flakey service still..
-
