  • baabaa89 Victoria. 🐝 (@baabaa89) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia We have been experiencing issues with our hub. We often lose connection and then the connection is not very strong at all when connected. This has been happening for a couple of weeks. Please advise further.

  • baabaa89 Victoria. 🐝 (@baabaa89) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia No issues and my box has no issues after running a test, but it still loses connection regularly.

  • thestuchy13 Damon (@thestuchy13) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @virginmedia It's a fault you was suppose to fix yesterday at 4.15 in the area but still hasn't been fixed

  • Listuuh Ryan (@Listuuh) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia It’s down again sort it out

  • diygolf John Pennington (@diygolf) reported from Ramsbottom, England

    @MotoNutJob @virginmedia Should be that if your provider can’t fix the problem within 24hrs you should be allowed to terminate the contract at no cost to yourself & they must give you a Uk contact number because the Bombay warriors are F..kg useless at sorting a problem

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Take this morning for example. You could have checked on previous interactions. But because you couldn’t be bothered, I’ve had to explain again. So. Take that as another example of how poor both your customer service team are and you, individually..

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    When you have 1001 things to do, Uber slow internet (yes @virginmedia I’ve tried switching on/off etc but still feel like I’m on dial up) and still haven’t a call time for job tomorrow is making me a proper grump #mondaythoughts #MondayMotivaton #MondayBlues #MondayMood

  • Tinkerbellkimmy KimSmith⛳🧘‍♀️ (@Tinkerbellkimmy) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia came home to a letter today stating your increasing my bill 3.00 per month from September! What's happened to loyal customer discounts utter joke! #Nothappycustomer

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Pretty ironic when the @virginmedia Service Status page doesn’t work.

  • marcbbz Marcbbz (@marcbbz) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Third time this weekend trying to get through to the retention team. I’ve spent a total of 1hr and 37mins on hold and still not spoken with a human being. And you wonder I want to cancel my subscription.

  • BazxAnderson Baz Anderson (@BazxAnderson) reported from St Helens, England

    So get an email on Sunday saying my @virginmedia bill is going up in September. Since then nothing but problems with the internet. If your going to charge a fortune. Provide a decent service.

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So it looks like the router resetting was the start of a bigger issue. Router appears to be having issues again. Your diag service thinks the router is switched off but it certainly isn’t.

  • beefstock3 colin paul henstock (@beefstock3) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia its been a week now and its taking the mick as i pay over £100 a month for this so called service so please sort it.

  • bizzarebird BBird (@bizzarebird) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Restarted twice, no problems with Internet at all. It started randomly on Monday night I thought it was going down but no it's like its telling me Internet is working but no thanks. Router is stuck where it is next to TV don't want flashing x

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Still on the phone. Just found out the eng that was supposed to come today to fixed the frayed cables outside was a no show. Also all my smart lights have stopped working meaning the local network (not broadband) has gone down. Finally you’ve agreed to issue a deadlock letter.

  • 19Mikey67 Mike Cairns (@19Mikey67) reported from Salford, England

    @mcrcoffeeaddict @virginmedia Yeah, no problem. Virgin have been shit for ages.

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp Hi, if you check Twitter this has been reported by a number of Virgin Media customers in the Ballsbridge area. It it a network issue so it should not matter if its a Corporate or Private account.

  • sarah_mcc93 Sarah Anne McCarthy (@sarah_mcc93) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    @F_Silvia95 @virginmedia Hi Sylvia, I spoke to James on the Customer Service Team and he has advised that they are aware of an outage in the area. There is an Engineer on site and an estimated repair time is 12 o'clock. Hopefully it will be sorted sooner 🤞

  • AlanKinloch Alan Kinloch (@AlanKinloch) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @vmbusiness How proud are you when you cancel installation 5 weeks after an order is placed, on the day it was to be installed, because you can’t actually supply fibre.

  • Galvo75 Mark Galvin (@Galvo75) reported

    @virginmedia It does happen infrequently on other channels but not enough to spoil it, but last night it was up to a few times a minute at its worst!

  • Sarrasha Sarrasha (@Sarrasha) reported

    @virginmedia hey team - just lost internet / TV / phone in BR1 area. Kinda making working from home hard.. The site says hoping to resolve by 3pm but not what the issue is - can you help?

  • Graham39431625 Graham (@Graham39431625) reported

    @virginmedia The last info was turn the router off and on. Prior to that, I was told I'd receive a call at 1pm Tuesday. Also told an an engineer is coming out, but I've not been told when. The reason I need the phone line is so my elderly mother can make emergency calls, when I'm not here.
