  • markwarne Mark (@markwarne) reported from Richmond, England

    Not the best start to the day when you attempt to log-on to work and discover that @virginmedia is down. Hoping that we don’t get anywhere near as late as 11:55 for KT2, that the website is saying that the issue is supposed to be resolved by.

  • OrrinEdenfield Orrin Edenfield, an 🇺🇸 living in 🇬🇧 (@OrrinEdenfield) reported from Camden Town, England

    Anyone else in NW3 have working Internet with Virgin Media? Mines been down about 30 min or so.

  • JP_Goddard John Paul Goddard (@JP_Goddard) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    So I’m a new @virginmedia customer - in first week I’ve had to contact them twice - both times lousy customer services, already starting to regret my decision......

  • waabbaC Waqas Abbasi (@waabbaC) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia can someone please contact me, I have had no BB service since Friday. I’m extremely disappointed with ur customer service. I have been trying to get hold off someone from ur customer service since last two weeks with no luck. Your chat bots are useless. #virginmedia

  • craigstrong Craig Strong (@craigstrong) reported from Richmond, England

    @Moonsushi @virginmedia Yes ours is down at the moment and the status page isn’t even working

  • spookyjulie Sarah Elizabeth Cox (@spookyjulie) reported from London, England

    @CateSevilla @virginmedia They then tried to fine me for not sending their 'hub' back and refused to refund the house move cost I'd paid a few months earlier. So so incompetent! SO stressful when all of us work from home too. I moved to TalkTalk & is cheaper and no problems so far, at least :)

  • citigirly lisa sibley (@citigirly) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I had a letter saying work was being done on 26th August and may effect broadband but since then the internet keeps going down intermittently throughout day ? No issues listed online can you check if work still being done as I am wfh post code SE39lr

  • annwyllie annwyllie (@annwyllie) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Phone not working. Just tried calling virgin from mobile- lines now closed and cut off. For a comms company the communication is useless. No broadband and no landline all afternoon.

  • OrrinEdenfield Orrin Edenfield, an 🇺🇸 living in 🇬🇧 (@OrrinEdenfield) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Well, I'm nearly certain my issues were caused or fixed by the gentleman in the Virgin Media van outside my residence. All seemed to be well yesterday afternoon and evening (and today so far).

  • KathleenYCarter Kathleen Carter (@KathleenYCarter) reported from Merton, England

    @mirage44793697 @virginmedia indeed gave up holding on the phone for 22 minutes just now. Constant W02 errors for £69/ month. Not great.

  • officialGMT Gary (@officialGMT) reported from Camden Town, England

    Any Virgin Media customers can tell me is it really that bad? I’ve a provisional install date for Fiber next month but keep seeing messages that it’s down more than up?

  • OrrinEdenfield Orrin Edenfield, an 🇺🇸 living in 🇬🇧 (@OrrinEdenfield) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia internet was off for an hour or more, then worked for a hot 5 minutes and now is down again.

  • Semakaleng Sem Moema 😷 🌹 (@Semakaleng) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia can you provide a number to cancel service? Been searching for almost 30 minutes.

  • czar_nik Dr Nick (@czar_nik) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia hello, our Internet has been down for over 4 hours now in Barking. Is there any update on this or when we can expect to have functional Internet back? Its not the first time this has happened and we're reaching the end of our tether!

  • turboeddie08 Eddie Seber (@turboeddie08) reported from London, England

    Virgin TV GO app down @virginmedia

  • karenbull2301 Karen Bull (@karenbull2301) reported from Shenley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I hope I have the right tweet address to beg for some help. I need a number urgently that will get me to someone to talk about a historic mobile bill. I can’t find anything in line to help me and I’ve spent hours trying to speak to someone

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BillyMeaney1 keep left (@BillyMeaney1) reported

    @virginmedia I even had customer service staff lie to me and tell me it was because roadworks were taking place that the pre-install work was being delayed. To then be told that a wayleave form had not been processed, 3 months after being told the work was complete, is ridiculous.

  • TamieOfficial Iraq Lobster (@TamieOfficial) reported

    @virginmedia Yh I have and it says no known issues.

  • Kevuuun . (@Kevuuun) reported

    @virginmedia Simply changing account holders and setting a direct debit. After "waiting to be transferred twice" I assume he thought I'd give up and hang up, he said there was a problem on his end and then hung up on me.

  • JenMains Jen (@JenMains) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been waiting 5 days for a reminder of my password to log in over the phone and pass the security checks, Can you help?

  • ChrisA Chris Adams (@ChrisA) reported

    @virginmedia THE SERVICE STATUS DOESN'T EVER CHANGE!!

  • BillyMeaney1 keep left (@BillyMeaney1) reported

    @virginmedia Pre installation work was supposed to be carried out on December 7th. I received a message this had been completed on December 8th. An engineer came to install on December 18th, bit found the work had not been done. Since then, it has not been done, and I'm left without service

  • ChrisA Chris Adams (@ChrisA) reported

    @umwhoslouise @virginhelp @virginmedia I finally got a call back and they claimed there was no area-wide issue because not enough people had complained about it! I suggested that might be because we're all frantically trying to work at home and don't have an hour to wait on hold only to be hung up on.

  • strutcakes Chris 🏳️‍🌈 (@strutcakes) reported

    @LouiseLFC81 @virginmedia Had the same thing last week. Their service recently is what can best be described as “patchy.”

  • alice___wolf alice (@alice___wolf) reported

    @virginmedia PELEAAAAAAAAASE FIX THE INTERNET IN MY AREA !! ITS BEEN OVER 24HOURSSSSSSSSSSSS

  • bjsboyce Ben Boyce (@bjsboyce) reported

    @virginmedia I think that your service going down 3 times in the space of a week, especially during working hours, deserves some kind of explanation. Don’t you?
