    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

  • John_murphy1 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.

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

    Here we go its worked for a week virginmedia internet down rebooted worked for 2 mins down again ill check my status later usually goes off then comes back on and works again S65 area

  • EJJFoster Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia hi is there an issue in wakefield with the broadband? It has been off all afternoon. Constantly on the blink!!

  • DaveFincher1984 David Fincher (@DaveFincher1984) reported from Mirfield, England

    @virginmedia currently getting a spinning blue loading circle when trying to access the YouTube app via my v6 box. Any solution you suggest? Been like it for a few days now.

    @virginmedia is the email down again??

  • kaw7676 Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported from Normanton, England

    @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  • John_murphy1 John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.

  • zackwynj zack jones (@zackwynj) reported from Mirfield, England

    why’s my wifi still **** @virginmedia

  • giinagii GiinaGii 🐱 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

    @Condieflyy My virgin media went down this morning too 👀

  • cranworth791 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.

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

    Virginmedia Rotherham some with no internet and no TV known issues in the area 6pm fix time

  • chococlaire77 Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, England

    Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

  • Sheffield_Boy Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

  • goonie2008 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.

  • Pontemiller Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported from Knottingley, England

    I 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.

  • ollieinleeds 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

  • ReeceBryan94 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

  • chirpyfrances Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported from Wakefield, England

    Been through 16 mths of lockdown, 3 working from home & hardly a glitch on the broadband. Last 8wks its gone down for several minutes a day between 10am and 1pm. Only on weekdays & its supposed to be a problem with our hub, really? An engineer could find it @virginmedia #shoddy

  • GaryFretwell1 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

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Raz625772 Rand (@Raz625772) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Honestly I have tried. Over 30 phone calls and 20+ hours with you guys. Being passed between departments, speaking to Manila, being cut off. No one understands what the other department is doing. Made a formal complaint, this has been ignored. It’s unacceptable

  • shogunage Shogun (@shogunage) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried every troubleshooting option available including the pin & it has no connection. believe theres an outage in my area but the website isnt showing any issues can I get someone to look at my postcode area? to confirm or not

  • MrMarmite James Poole 🕷 (@MrMarmite) reported

    @virginmedia keep having drop offs and slow speeds..am only ever told to reset hub as "everything fine at your end"

  • jaynemaura1 Maura. (@jaynemaura1) reported

    @virginmedia Could you please contact us to have the equipment dropped off by courier which your company failed to install.We have been trying for at least ten days to have it collected, due to disgraceful service we have now moved to another company. DM for phone no. .

  • she_hun Aysen Berik (@she_hun) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having the worst customer experience. You accidentally cut off our services with 2 disabled people who need phone & TV as well as people who work from home. Yet you can't reconnect for 48 hours? You took my money in mins as soon as i said its still active though?

  • gwens_lamb Sam Stefani (@gwens_lamb) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t use it… I’m a carer in the families house so I don’t know their log in details. The family are in Greece. Can you please tell me if there are known problems in CT17 0HA ? X

  • Wicksington Josh Quinn (@Wicksington) reported

    @virginmedia Hey, any updates on when the outage in the B32 1PE area will be over? The Service Status page and line haven't been updated since the beginning last week.

  • crystaliice Alice (@crystaliice) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah it says there is an outage in our area and an engineer is supposed to fix it before the end of today. It has said that for the past 3 days and then each morning the internet has stopped working again

  • bobbyghayouri Bobby Ghayouri (@bobbyghayouri) reported

    @virginmedia Not helpful. Even without an outage the service has been poor from day one, and way below what @skytv delivered (and they send boosters FOC!). I want out of the contract due to not getting what I’m paying for yet that costs £240. Ridiculous.

  • antjones47 Anthony Jones💙 (@antjones47) reported

    Watch out if you’re a @virginmedia customer. Dodgy call to say internet speed not as it should & getting new router & compo of £400!! When they were pushing for me to install bank app on my phones be seemed dodgy.
