  • RitzNarshi Ritz (@RitzNarshi) reported from Lichfield, England

    Watching @virginmedia engineers install cabling to a property opposite. Residents moved in yesterday. They’re not in, nor is their neighbour. Didn’t stop the engineers lifting the neighbour’s lawn to drill and feed through cabling. Terrible.

  • VickyBloor2 Vicky Bloor (@VickyBloor2) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia any updates on internet connection in the Midlands 5 hours down now 😡

    No sound on my TV for 4 days, tried all the usual re boots and resets, countless calls to virgin on hold for over an hr only to be cut off, am now waiting for a callback off them that probably won’t come, disgraceful service,can anyone help @virginmedia

  • alexlowe95 Alex Lowe (@alexlowe95) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to watch virgin tv through Firefox on my Amazon fire stick, but I keep getting an error message ‘sign in failed’ although it doesn’t even give me the option to enter an email address to attempt to sign in?

  • SkulyMusic Skuly (@SkulyMusic) reported from Aldridge, England

    @virginmedia The worst customer service in History gotta be seen to be believed

  • shaunreeves Shaun Reeves (@shaunreeves) reported from Fradley and Streethay, England

    @virginmedia Lichfield area having problems. I’ve gone from 600mbps this morning to less than a meg. According to online no know issues. Connect app and your online diagnostic tool doesn’t support Hub4 so can even test that way. Done a rest of hub. Nothing. Help!

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @keith_bloke @virginmedia CS agent hung up on you? The only justification for that is if you used bad language. Otherwise they should be attempting to resolve the issue for you. Is this for your Dad? Mobile providers are universally poor. They consider themselves never in the wrong. I’m with @EE also poor

  • MattyladKRO Matt Smith (@MattyladKRO) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I hung on for 45 mins then you hung up ....disgusting customer service tell me why I shouldn’t just cancel and go elsewhere after suing you for breach of contract

  • blueghostuk Michael Pritchard (@blueghostuk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I can only await for the service I ordered then... hopeless

  • Matt_Francis98 Matt' (@Matt_Francis98) reported from Fazeley, England

    Virgin media are the worst internet providers there is for sure

  • Tricia__Winspur Tricia (@Tricia__Winspur) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Parents experiencing continual issues with their Virgin services... have tried contacting Virgin for over month and continually on hold. Now on hold again and this issue needs to be resolved. Elderly parents and no mobile. Any help as this is disgusting service!!

  • omarqureshi Omar Qureshi (@omarqureshi) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Mattplaysgames7 @virginmedia Looks like the Erdington area is down

  • SkulyMusic Skuly (@SkulyMusic) reported from Aldridge, England

    @virginmedia Yes we have done every trouble shooting piece of advice under the sun

  • shaunreeves Shaun Reeves (@shaunreeves) reported from Fradley and Streethay, England

    @virginmedia It appears to have been resolved. However it is rather alarming to hear members of our village had been told by your customer service team “the earliest fix would be 6th Jan 2021”.

  • alex_bann Alex Bann (@alex_bann) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia New V6 box (less than a month old) alternates between flashing red & white lights. Tried to reset using your help guide - still not working. How do I sort this out? #childreninthehouse

  • brettellis1982 Brett Ellis (@brettellis1982) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia have the virgin connect app.... however it will not let me sign in. Have changed password etc and it still says ‘wrong username or password’. Driving me mad!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ChloeWingle Chloe Elizabeth (@ChloeWingle) reported

    @virginmedia due to having an open case because of domestic harassment and your adviser told me he couldn’t help me and put the phone down.

  • blairsinclair blair sinclair (@blairsinclair) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you for trying to help- but I have already been on the phone for over an hour today and the service I’ve received has been largely appalling. I am also working all day tomorrow. I just want this sorted.

  • G6XOR David Winfield (@G6XOR) reported

    Pretty shoddy treatment from Virgin media. Had their top broadband but got better deal from sky, rang to cancel and they gave me a good deal to stay reducing my monthly bill by around £50. Staying as it is, today everything dropping out and now we’re on the 50 mbs not the 200mbs

  • IVIagma (ง'̀-'́)ง (@IVIagma) reported

    @C9EmZ Are you being told that by a Microsoft support member with an Indian accent? Or is that just another **** excuse from virgin media 🙄

  • dattepalme T. S. (@dattepalme) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2. I am desperate and don't know what to do. Please help me to get in contact with anyone. What can I do. What do you need to know in order to help me?

  • alixcage Alix Cage 😷👍 (@alixcage) reported

    Awful customer service from @virginmedia. Sent a letter recorded delivery on the 11th to close my account but it’s still not been processed! Operator I spoke to today says they can’t verify I did this so charged me notice from today. What a joke! Glad to be leaving!

  • annamazz Anna Maslowicz (@annamazz) reported

    @virginmedia No as no one is getting back to me, returning my calls or following up with my complaints. I need this resolved or I’m going to close my account and go to another provider. Terrible service

  • blairsinclair blair sinclair (@blairsinclair) reported

    @virginmedia The rep said that was fine, the proceeded to tell me how virgin speeds were faster etc. I said I still wanted the 30 days to stand but I would get in touch if I changed my mind. Now I find out the notice period was never logged and I face a huge bill for a service I had cancelled

  • helenrowan3 helen rowan (@helenrowan3) reported

    @virginmedia been on hold for 50 minutes waiting to speak to someone. Terrible service!

  • dattepalme T. S. (@dattepalme) reported

    @virginmedia @NilsSchaffner Same problem here. Can you please try to contact me in anyway. Waiting in telephone line for about an hour before being kicked out. Chatbot not sending useful messages. Unrelated to question. Nobody is coming back to me via WhatsApp. I don't know what to do. Please help.
