    @virginmedia Thank you for picking this up. It is a horrid time to hear how scared my parents have been feeling with a landline or the internet.

  • lizzielichfield Anna Taylor (@lizzielichfield) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia 3 days after raising your lack of response after cutting off services 3 weeks ago to my at-risk parents, no one has yet confirmed when you will fix YOUR error. Unfulfilled commitments to resolve from your team. Exceptionally bad customer service experience.

  • LargotMiss Miss Largot (@LargotMiss) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia no WiFi AGAIN I expect a reduction in your monthly bill as I am paying for a service that cannot be used Please dm me to request a refund

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ANDYPVFC ANDY YATES (@ANDYPVFC) reported

    @blue5456 @virginmedia @Virgin B4 Virgin we had Voda, Sky, BT and they all promised 71mbps, they were all crap and Voda only provided 7mbps at peak times. Try get Fibre to the house (FTTP). Makes a massive difference than the fibre to the cabinet then copper from the cabinet to the house which degrades it.

  • zumodoki A. (@zumodoki) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the missed appointment charge! When your engineer arrives to fix the internet, The last thing I expect them to try is the ring video doorbell that's requires the internet, Good job, Tops marks ⭐

  • LincolnFireman Richard James Wing (@LincolnFireman) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for getting back to me. Our promotional period had ended and I really dont want to cancel our service but £54.00 a month is a bit steep after paying £29.00. Is there anything you can do to help my dad out as we are moving out in August and he needs internet service.

  • ANDYPVFC ANDY YATES (@ANDYPVFC) reported

    @blue5456 @virginmedia @Virgin What package you got mate. We've got the 1gig and never once had a prob. Tbf Virgin are the only provider we haven't had a problem with. Depends if your FTTP or to the Cabinet then copper to your house. If Copper to your house then all providers will be crap.

  • JordanDavies111 Jordan Davies (@JordanDavies111) reported

    @virginmedia Home movers Network sales Sales New business I've been through to every department on and off your IVR and nobody can resolve this or get it fitted. Nobody can give me my money back. Yet I keep paying bills @LutzSchueler PLEASE

  • Mark121115 Mark S 121115 🇮🇪🏁😷🇺🇦 (@Mark121115) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi is down again less than 24 hrs after coming back.

  • MFreshers1 Freshers (@MFreshers1) reported

    @virginmedia , I am into hour 25 of a messaging and WhatsApp 'customer experience'. I have been transferred to 'an agent' on eight different occasions during this 'experience'. I just want a price for different services. Your customer service is utterly ludicrous.

  • itsmiketucker Mike (@itsmiketucker) reported

    @virginmedia It says TV issues, but nothing to do with broadband, but that definitely isn't working. Light is flashing green.

  • Heather53268244 Heather Irvine (@Heather53268244) reported

    @virginmedia And I get through to an agent who wants a security code that I don't have as have never needed to ring.

  • scottmason20 Scott (@scottmason20) reported

    Wow @virginmedia staff putting the phone down as they don't know what there doing. Poor customer service !!!!
