  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia And no response on my second, and then an incorrect bill, this is why someone is meant to be ringing me to sort it out and deal properly as I’m so angry with the service received

  • Oscarmeg Michael Dugdale (@Oscarmeg) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia your service for the price I pay is a bloody joke! I can’t watch a film on the cinema channels I pay for without it pausing every 30 seconds to buffer. There’s no technical help available. I want my subscription money back thank you!

  • Seasiderdario dario (@Seasiderdario) reported from South Shore, England

  • MoffittPhilip Phil Moffitt (@MoffittPhilip) reported from Maghull, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had Broadband problems for the past 3 weeks. You sent me a new router last week, that’s worked for a few days, now having the same problems again. Can you check please, my postcode is L31. Could someone possibly call me?

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    Honestly tho how **** is @virginmedia internets down more than it works

  • Oscarmeg Michael Dugdale (@Oscarmeg) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Repeated wifi failure causing issues trying to stream any catch up or live channels. Wifi drops at random intervals. Poor signal strength through my property. Failure to organise the booster as promised way back in September. Failure to call me back after request for my number.

  • Libra_Comms Ali Gudgeon ✍🏻️ (@Libra_Comms) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia The problem with the search facility is that it brings up multiple episodes but none of them have dates on. This needs addressing please!

  • TerryBpne Crazy Corner (@TerryBpne) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @MintyPNE @virginmedia Yes, camera angle awful. Went for the defer season ticket option to next year, so could have had ifollow tonight, but that has hardly been reliable. Still we are winning!

  • GeminiAli Ali (@GeminiAli) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia keep me on hold for 40 minutes then answer and cut me off. Shocking service. Ive tried to update online and get told I have to call. Twice I've been cut off after being on hold and or answered. Conveniently can't email either 😡😡

  • physiobex Becky Nicholls (@physiobex) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia No problem, thx for the reply, seems to be ok now 👍🏻

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken with someone in the new development team who’s advised they’ve escalated all my complaints and someone should be ringing me directly to take through and fix everything. However no response

  • ShevingtonShark SHEVINGTON SHARKS (@ShevingtonShark) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia we are having lots of issue with our broadband. This has been for days now ! Please contact us. We have tried and tried to get through. Very frustrated customer !

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @DisneyPlusUK @NPGLondon @virginmedia better sought out the local outage for this. Wait, I can watch on my tablet via the app you say? Not unless they also sought out the WiFi issue. Call them to complain you say? Not unless they sought out the landline issue...😐

  • Billyburdess3 Billy burdess (@Billyburdess3) reported from Blackpool, England

    @tizo59 @virginmedia Was this fixed I have the same problem

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • tommietravers Tommie Travers (@tommietravers) reported

    @virginmedia 32 minutes on the phone. Got no further forward. Got transferred. Held for 15 mins, and the call was just terminated. It takes a lot for me to be this blunt, but you should seriously consider a career change. I do not understand how you can work for such an awful company?!

  • RLW87 Rachelle Paulson (@RLW87) reported

    Looking for a new mobile contract, thought I'd try @virginmedia - I specifically request a min of 20gb and she tries to continually sell 2gb or 5gb. On asking her not to do that, I only want 20gb+ she hangs up on me ... looks like I'll take my custom elsewhere. Good service Shen

  • HopeMarieBonnen Hope-Marie Bonnen (@HopeMarieBonnen) reported

    @virginmedia hey! You still need to change your network checker to say we can't receive 4G in our area. I'm no longer with you but we definitely can't due to other people not being able to cancel because you'd charge them for NOT PROVDING A SERVICE which is stupid. Thanks.

  • Stillberto Tim Stillman (@Stillberto) reported

    @virginmedia I've got it working now but this really is a persistent issue.

  • wee_lainey elaine strachan (menzies-guild) (@wee_lainey) reported

    @virginmedia cut off 4 times today & have a sickly child. trying to cancel all my services since start feb. all services to be d/c 4/4 ...2 weeks after New provider started. bill today for £244! March bill!! Saying that previous agent didn't cancel services correctly! Ridiculous

  • npick69 Neil Pickersgill (@npick69) reported

    @virginmedia worst media company ever. Deliberately make it difficult to speak with customer Svs, lie about bundles. Never again will you have my customer

  • RMist123 Ricky Mistry (@RMist123) reported

    @virginmedia I honestly regret signing up with @virginmedia. Biggest mistake I made was to trust Virgin Media. Now I’m stuck without a contract, incorrect billing and no way of getting a complaint raised or investigated! Not sure where to go from here!

  • tommietravers Tommie Travers (@tommietravers) reported

    @virginmedia I cannot get over how utterly useless you are. You, the company, the staff. Even your engineer told me “The customer service is ******* ****.” So, even your own colleagues admit it’s a disaster of a company. Your unwillingness to help me just proves that. You are the problem.

  • simonlevans simon le vans 💙 (@simonlevans) reported

    Well I can’t watch any streaming services on my only day off this week because my broadband is down again, so I’ll watch the lights flashing on my @virginmedia router instead 😒

  • AFCBSupreme11 AFCB Supreme (@AFCBSupreme11) reported

    @virginmedia right I’ve just about ******* had it with you lot now. You’ve done works on the WiFi last week which took longer than you proposed just for it not to work literally a week later. I’m considering becoming a virgin media technician so I can **** around and get paid.
