  • yoelbrightman Yoel Brightman (@yoelbrightman) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia having trouble with my broadband speeds having installed hub4 and spent over an hour trying to get through to customer services. Can you help please?

  • Ryan_JL Ryan (@Ryan_JL) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia call constantly cuts out when ringing and I get ‘advised’ 5 times to go online (which doesn’t help at all). Really get the impression virgin don’t want to help! What’s going on?

  • VishP19 Vish (@VishP19) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia Yes. A call to say they can’t make it! Would rather I was notified in the morning than wasting my day waiting. Shockingly poor customer service!!

  • RitchWaghorn Ritch Waghorn (@RitchWaghorn) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia now been waiting 45 mins for customer services to answer. Totally #unacceptable

  • paulotuga86 Paulo J R Bicho (@paulotuga86) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia I can’t see anything the message saying hard drive problem is on the screen

  • JimboUK71 James Aubrey (@JimboUK71) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I’d gladly text for some help! Off tomorrow, have the time. 😎

  • JimboUK71 James Aubrey (@JimboUK71) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I have a hub 3. I’ve used the app and it acknowledges black spots in the bedrooms, within 20 ft of router. I got a link for a free booster, but the link was dead. I need help to get these issues sorted. CS. are uncontactable. There are no more trouble shooting steps left!

  • TraceyElliott17 Tracey Elliott (@TraceyElliott17) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia I have never known such incompetence in a company! Four times I’ve been told we’re going to get a refund after an hour on the phone. Wrong amount taken again! You just seem to treat your customers with contempt!

  • hdl_dl helena (@hdl_dl) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Still with the problem, no answer

  • rana_banana Rana Brightman (@rana_banana) reported from London, England

    As customer service standards go, @virginmedia sucks badly. They need to seriously ask themselves, is letting someone wait 45 mins and counting for someone to help with a technical fault acceptable? NO IT ISN’T. HEEEELLLLOOOOO???!! WHEN ARE YOU PICKING UP??!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • andylockran Andy 🏊🚴🏻🏃 (@andylockran) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @nlitchfield @virginmedia @YodelOnline Aye, the fact it’s become a bit of a critical service from me to be able to work from home.

  • andylockran Andy 🏊🚴🏻🏃 (@andylockran) reported from Walthamstow, England

    Not the best start to life as a @virginmedia customer. Radio silence from @YodelOnline who are supposed to be delivering the router, and stuck in an online queue for 45 minutes so far waiting to speak to a customer support advisor...

  • paulotuga86 Paulo J R Bicho (@paulotuga86) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia Yes i did still the same hard drive problem

  • OlaAgbaimoni Ola Agbaimoni (@OlaAgbaimoni) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Hi please send an engineer to my house to sort out the useless Hub 4 box that replaced my reliable and efficient Hub 3. I have asked the community for a solution and they say get engineer out to separate the 2 and 5 GEXT. Fed up of paying good £ for a crap service!

  • MoraisPhilip Philip Morais (@MoraisPhilip) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia 45 mins on hold and then cut off. Service is appalling.

  • fatsherkey Anuradha (@fatsherkey) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia your online bot is so rubbish. How on earth can I speak to a human who can help me to sort out my issue?

  • paulotuga86 Paulo J R Bicho (@paulotuga86) reported from Epsom and Ewell District, England

    @virginmedia Already try that still don’t working don’t get me wrong but this is getting a joke now because no one can help me our give answer I’m really starting to cancel my contact because this is not acceptable at all

  • jit_singh99 Jit (@jit_singh99) reported from Romford, England

    I’m a new customer with @virginmedia. Should be getting 200MB download. But literally move 2/3 meters away from router and it drops significantly and device is just buffering. Furthermore trying to resolve this via ur call centre is a joke. Been on hold for 50mins now.

  • JetsetSusan Susan Elizabeth (@JetsetSusan) reported from Hackney, England

    @mikast71 @virginmedia Thanks. I also finally got through to a human who said “everything looks fine on our side, sorry you’re having problems.” Kind of at a loss here. Just going to stop the direct debit for the month to see if that generates a response from them.

  • rana_banana Rana Brightman (@rana_banana) reported from London, England

    @k_co @virginmedia That is insane. Urgh. We’re hostages to **** service with the promise of the fastest speeds ever!!!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MackMem Mary Mackenzie (@MackMem) reported

    @virginmedia I set up a new account with you on Friday but need to cancel as installation requires drilling (which building won’t allow). I have tried to cancel my account 3 times today, each time spending 30 mins on phone and then being cut off. How can I cancel?

  • MikeHair123 Michael Hair (@MikeHair123) reported

    @virginmedia O2 seems to be much worse signal in my area than my previous virgin SIM (ee?)

  • LovelyLaura_xx LauraLikesLetters (@LovelyLaura_xx) reported

    @virginmedia still having services go up & down, this problem has been going on for at least 2 months yet no one can ever find a fault? Now no internet since early this morning, will come back for a short period & then go again. Had to reschedule an interview - really not good😞

  • LovelyLaura_xx LauraLikesLetters (@LovelyLaura_xx) reported

    @virginmedia I haven’t been able to access this page until now as the virgin website wasn’t working earlier. Apparently there are no issues, but on sites like downdetector it shows Virgin has been out all morning & I’m still having issues.

  • bha4p Andy⁴p⚪️💙 🚯 (@bha4p) reported

    @CPalethorpe25 If you've got Virgin media at home, they've got some very competitive stuff since they partner with o2 now. Eg double data, reduced broadband costs. Best if you call them and get to "customer relations team" for any useful offers in my experience.

  • canadasteve1 Steve A (@canadasteve1) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute balderdash from Virgin again. You know you have a fault it’s even reported in the news today! Just admit the fault tell your customers you are working to fix it and be honest for once!

  • LovelyLaura_xx LauraLikesLetters (@LovelyLaura_xx) reported

    @virginmedia These connection & speed issues have been going on for months now, I’m getting between 30-50 on a good day! I have screenshots etc of the speed but there’s never any fault found

  • CfcWallace James Wallace (@CfcWallace) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband down in Basingstoke RG21 area. #virginmediadown

  • canadasteve1 Steve A (@canadasteve1) reported

    @virginmedia As my phone is internet based I cannot call your number to find out more specific detail!! Be accountable and honest with your customers instead of stating no service issues!

  • chrisbooth1974 Chris Booth (@chrisbooth1974) reported

    @virginmedia Nope still down.
