  • w_hawkins William Hawkins (@w_hawkins) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia broadband is down yet again in NW5 (area 15) and service status says no issues. No way to escalate this and no idea of what the problem is. Help, my service keeps disappearing.

  • alec_zetter Alec Zetter (@alec_zetter) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia Hi! I would like to cancel my service! I've tried online, via phone and now on your fourth department via text message!

  • Liv_DigiTales DigiTales (@Liv_DigiTales) reported from Barnet, England

    @cdholdsworth @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp Same issue for me. Also drops for a few minutes a few times a day everyday NW7

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia This issue is now appalling. Now I will not have internet connectivity for at least 3 days. That is unacceptable and I will have to wait until a new router arrives which is shocking

  • danjpadgett Dan Padgett (@danjpadgett) reported from Wandsworth, England

    . @virginmedia you know it would be great if my Internet didn't disconnect and average of 25 times a day, every day for 3 weeks. Sure makes working from home a challenge. Your support say 'there is nothing wrong their end' I beg to differ.

  • Olivia121994_ OD (@Olivia121994_) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @craig_dw @virginmedia This means either the router is downloading an update or your internet connection isn't on 🥴 not useful that that signal could mean either

  • Bhavinchief Bhavin (@Bhavinchief) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia Internet down again!! So frustrating what’s going on!! Every weekend!!

  • Olivia121994_ OD (@Olivia121994_) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @craig_dw @virginmedia Search virgin media area signal and itll tell you if they're doing work locally

  • SamanthaLeeuwen Samantha van Leeuwen (@SamanthaLeeuwen) reported from Bromley, England

    6 weeks for @virginmedia to fix broadband in Orpington and still missed today’s deadline! Pay for 500mb get 5mb if lucky. #NoMoreExcuses

  • beerinthesuburb Jon 🍺👍 (@beerinthesuburb) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @TalkTalk - Hi, I'm a customer that has switched to @virginmedia and need to cancel my account. I called yesterday and you told me I need to ask Virgin to send an "unsolicited cease" request. Contacted Virgin, who have said we need to ask TalkTalk to cancel our services...

  • 0618_Dee Dee (@0618_Dee) reported from Camden Town, England

    @VirginMedia How can you only teach your customer "facing" staff to only say sorry, we've been trying to resolve the issue. As a new customer, I'm starting to regret my decision of choosing your company as I haven't had any of my broadband or TV package working as your promise!

  • dietmarlen Dietmar Lenden #FBPE (@dietmarlen) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia is down again for our entire block and the CS line is still closed. 3 weeks in a row. No status update and same issue. Not looking good here

  • StMirrenDaft Ian Williamson (@StMirrenDaft) reported from Tottenham, England

    Still down @virginmedia. Utterly diabolical service!

  • LondonFerg Ferg (@LondonFerg) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Aparently that is the cost if I want to talk to anyone in relation to the above problem according you your rep...

  • JambyButch James Butcher (@JambyButch) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia If two hours being transferred around yesterday on the phone from person to person didn’t help us, I’m not sure an ‘automated assistant’ will help!

  • Ishaniem ℐ𝓈𝒽𝒶𝓃𝒾ℯ (@Ishaniem) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia thanks for ******* the phone line the other week. However, it has stopped working again. Grateful for a speedy fix please!!!

  • thecatsrgrowlin sam shea (@thecatsrgrowlin) reported from Tottenham, England

    @DJStuartJ @AbleMichel @virginmedia @grimegran Me too -you need to have more speed -wired broadband in sons bedroom is fine, every place else is ****, emailed asking for hub3 so can get boosters, just get sent round in circles #pissedoff and fed up

  • alec_zetter Alec Zetter (@alec_zetter) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    I will never ever subscribe to @virginmedia services due to how difficult they make it to change services/cancel contracts. It's a joke and should be looked at by @Ofcom.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • smartesthorse smartesthorse (@smartesthorse) reported

    @virginmedia this is a DESPICABLE company I switched because of cost/service fully repeatedly, explained why now I get daily calls demanding know why why I left, I am disabled woman pensioner I feel alarmed and harrassed they will not leave me alone NO means NO Virgin

  • AndyGuthrie1 Andy (@AndyGuthrie1) reported

    @virginmedia Hiya, yes I've done all this and it's determined definitively that my WiFi is just almost non existing in the kitchen 25ft away, then when I tried to get the booster it says you've stopped registration due to high demand (unsurprisingly) hence I've still got no real service.

  • chitst176 St Chit (@chitst176) reported

    @virginmedia So Day 6 with no internet no phone no tv and no engineer- apparently the car crash into the street box isn’t an area fault despite my neighbours not having connection it’s just my service that’s down … Just waiting in like it’s the 1990’s

  • AvantGardensnft Avant Gardener (@AvantGardensnft) reported

    @virginmedia No, you can tell your internal department to sort it out. You’re clearly not able to help (that social media management degree is well useful), I have made more than reasonable efforts to request that you do, I have screenshotted my formal notice of 28days via here 1/2

  • AlexPRPC Alex (@AlexPRPC) reported

    @virginmedia Slow download speeds, non-existent upload speeds. Even if the speed appears high, there is a lot of packet loss. I work virtually and it makes it impossible to attend meetings because whenever I talk only about 70% of what I say is received & the same for me understanding others.

  • lucykaufman_ Lucy Kaufman (@lucykaufman_) reported

    @virginmedia My 80-yr-old mother has been trying to get her VM equipment picked up but you never collect it. She’s been charged £300 for this so far and threatened with another £100. It’s been packaged and ready for weeks! She’s phoned numerous times.

  • longrigg Jamie Longrigg (@longrigg) reported

    @virginmedia It is a shame, I have done that and they told me that it was up to Virgin Media to do the cancellation! I think that you should really focus on improving sales and customer service, because this is where you have performed really poorly

  • smartesthorse smartesthorse (@smartesthorse) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin you totally do not undeestand the current climate It is NOT okay to refuse to accept a customer switches it is NOT okay for bullying men to call lone women in their home every day making demands NO means NO I dont want to be your customer

  • smartesthorse smartesthorse (@smartesthorse) reported

    @virginmedia Avoid this over priced lot they have hateful business practices I have switched but they will not accept it call me daily each time demanding to know my reason for leaving..er twice the price, no customer service web down many times a year ?I HAVE LEFT accept it

  • smartesthorse smartesthorse (@smartesthorse) reported
