    Virgin media users any issues 😣?

  • goonerlgh Lawrence Hooker (@goonerlgh) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia Third Superhub and it's just as unreliable as the previous two. Frequently has to be reset. Slow speeds, unstable wifi. When are you going to replace it with decent hardware?

  • _SamButler Sam #GSBOUT (@_SamButler) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia BT Sports 2 picture keeps getting distorted... any other channel is fine can you help please

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia This is a long story. But Virgin have changed my IMEI number making a second repair not possible. My account is down and even Virgin can't access it. I've been promised calls back several times but they've not happened. The litany of Virgin failures is impossible to put in a text

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    Anyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈

  • GrandmasterAce1 kali ace (@GrandmasterAce1) reported from Grays, England

    @SunveerC26 @_amansanger_ @virginmedia This is so rude, how do u guys have footage of me waiting for the internet to come back up 👀👀 booky

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to a manager who can help. They don't seem to want to. I have a contract phone, it won't charge, it's under guarantee, I'm paying you and you won't help.

  • polhilljim Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I've already done that. They've made promises but done nothing. I always have to chase you. Phone backs just don't happen. Nobody wants to help.

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I'm having real trouble cancelling my Virgin media account. Cant6v chat them, can't email them now on hold for 10 minutes. Just want to end the contract give 30 days notice. New promotion only for new customers. Wtf?

  • MLong94 Mark.. (@MLong94) reported from Grays, England

    Imagine my shock. Virgin media telly and internet down, AGAIN. **** *****

  • jamesrfyoung James Young (@jamesrfyoung) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice

  • jooz282 Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia It was a little more than short lasting pixelation! The channel kept dropping completely and during the main fight it felt like we were watching in slow motion.

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    @SpursKS @virginmedia What's the issue

  • TDF_TT TDF TT (@TDF_TT) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia TV outage ME4?

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    @westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

  • keldaaa Kelda🥤 (@keldaaa) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia I can’t seem to find an email address or postal address for general queries, can you please provide me with one? My nan is now in a care home with dementia and we need to cancel her landline, broadband & mobile on her behalf so need to write to you to give details.

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    Had a real problem with Virgin media. Was paying this month's bill when Virgin had a problem as with its auto payment service and the payment couldn't be processed. I then tried again via their website and the payment went through......

  • DronePilotGeoff Geoff Watkins (@DronePilotGeoff) reported from Gillingham, England

    @fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well

  • moebius1967 ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @bushontheradio Trying to get through to Virgin media to cancel the contract. Bloody chatbot isn't worth a ****

  • chornbarino Chris (like the trains) (@chornbarino) reported from Harrogate, England

    @virginmedia It wasn’t the TV GO app it was everything, broadband etc. Seemed you had a National outage?

  • KayleighG Kayleigh (@KayleighG) reported

    @virginmedia Still without broadband,TV intermittent. Status page now showing a fault although it was never fixed in the first place. Appreciate it's not the social media teams fault but very frustrating to be a customer lately 😞 Is there a particular reason it has been so unreliable lately?

  • Katomonkey Kate Bowskill (@Katomonkey) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone allow me to cancel my broadband as I am in my cooling off period. I’ve had your “amazing” broadband for 1 week and it cuts off constantly, I have 2 rooms with no service at all. I have made multiple phone calls and nobody will do anything

  • tonysyoung tony⚒️ (@tonysyoung) reported

    @virginmedia I'd be interested if other customers in my post code are having similar issues, RM7 0XL as that would prove if it was our kit or yours. If you can do that then we might get somewhere

  • liam_mp3 𝐿𝒾𝒶𝓂 (@liam_mp3) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not particularly sure, my internet was working fine up til yesterday where it just went down and didn’t come back for hours, now it’s working but the connection quality is really struggling at times, as it’ll work fine for a stint and then chug extremely hard

  • Adam_R_Callan Adam Callan (@Adam_R_Callan) reported

    @virginmedia Originally told an engineer would be out on Tuesday, then told would be brought forward to Saturday, then pushed back to Wednesday! Rang to find out what was happening - supposed to get a call back from a manager - never happened!! Wife and I both working from home with no wife!!

  • yahowshuwa Josh - Yahowshuwa (@yahowshuwa) reported

    @virginmedia Up and down connection from 9pm until 1am. Stable so far this morning.

  • itsaWildCATH Cath Preston (@itsaWildCATH) reported

    @virginmedia Appreciate it's not your fault as the social media team. I just really think, if a fix will take a long time to deploy, your company as a whole needs to communicate better. Current time is set for 10.30am but there still doesn't seem to be an engineer on site. Bit of a concern.

  • Katomonkey Kate Bowskill (@Katomonkey) reported

    @virginmedia They want to make sure I am out of my cooling off period before even attempting to look at it! Worst decision to leave sky, might take them a while to download a film but there coverage never drops

  • tonysyoung tony⚒️ (@tonysyoung) reported

    @virginmedia We are away for a week from today so will leave this to my son of he has issues with Internet again, he doesn't use TV much so that won't affect him but we can't even put stuff on to record as we will come back to a load of pixelated rubbish.
