  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia I don’t have a problem with mine. I changed it to a different router a couple of years and all of the problems that everybody experiences; such as dropping Wi-Fi disappeared.

  • ABeeeABeee Abi (@ABeeeABeee) reported from Stotfold, England

    Can honestly say I don’t think I’ve ever received customer service as poorly as I have from @virginmedia this weekend/this morning. Absolutely disgusting 😡😡😡

  • Griffo2018 RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Now I am told they will send me a new hub as they do think I have problems T the house . That’s why VM booked a engineer it was not me who did it . Time will tell if the goal post moves again today

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @StephenD1402 @virginmedia It’s the router Steve. The free Virgin router is the problem. Buy a new router from someone like Asus and turn the Virgin one to Modem mode. Should solve most problems.

  • johnait72020789 John Aitken (@johnait72020789) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia Hi virgin just rang the phone number you have gave us to call but we went through using the key pad and then all you said was we will send a text message with way to fix which don’t work.

  • niroknox Niro Knox (@niroknox) reported from Potters Bar, England

    @richardbranson virgin media U.K. business service is appalling , customer service and tech support are lying, promising callbacks just to get you off the line, 3 weeks no service my business is chaos, my SLA is 12 hours yet no one to talk to fault: F010324227 No one is helping

  • essojohn Johnny Allen 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⚒WHU (@essojohn) reported from Broxbourne District, England

  • ABeeeABeee Abi (@ABeeeABeee) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia The specific issue isn’t on the site

  • jasondflynn Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia And to re-emphasise what I’ve said countless times before; you’re wasting peoples time, because you don’t tell them that it is your router that causes most of the problems. Can’t believe @Ofcom allow this.

  • essojohn Johnny Allen 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⚒WHU (@essojohn) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @virginmedia You have given me a number 0345 454 111 which doesn't exist come on this is getting ridiculous also tried 150 has no option 3 and takes me straight back to someone who wants to do a diagnostic check and I am also using a virgin phone just how bad does this get

  • johnait72020789 John Aitken (@johnait72020789) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia why do I only get a notice saying channel failed when I watch sky sports channel live, I can watch any other channel you provide me and don’t have a issue. I have done everything that you tell me to do but it still keeps happening.

  • ABeeeABeee Abi (@ABeeeABeee) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia No, I have done that countless times since yesterday morning and the issue isn’t being resolved. I’m not doing it again

  • vision_e_media Vision Elite Media (@vision_e_media) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia how can you customer service offer me a new contract £25 more than a new customer contract and then try blame the current economical situation?!?! Aren’t we all in the same economical situation new or existing customers?

  • essojohn Johnny Allen 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⚒WHU (@essojohn) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @virginmedia Self install as we had determined the tivo box was faulty they sent one but its obviously never been activated from your end despite the hrs I've spent online trying to get it done no one I speak to has a clue what there doing constantly going thro diagnostics not activating it.

  • essojohn Johnny Allen 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⚒WHU (@essojohn) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    VIRGIN MEDIA beware over 25 yrs a customer, there customer service has hit rock bottom what an appalling company to deal with anybody had the same experience please pass on.

  • essojohn Johnny Allen 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧⚒WHU (@essojohn) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @virginmedia No I have not and at no stage has any one or any virgin media Web site indicated to do so I have as stated spent hrs on the phone talking to yr people about the problem and now you suggest this I am totally fed up ringing VIRGIN MEDIA and constantly going over the same things.

  • LauraVCook1980 Laura Cook (@LauraVCook1980) reported from Hatfield, England

    @virginmedia disappointed after 10 years of being a loyal customer that I can’t pause my monthly payments for 11 weeks while I’m not at home and no one using the broadband or TV!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KeithDenton17 Keith Denton (@KeithDenton17) reported

    @virginmedia please advise if you are experiencing issues in the EX4 area, no wifi for the last hour but outage checker stating no issues??

  • smoggy_smithy Mark Smith (@smoggy_smithy) reported

    @jamiemadden1989 @virginmedia You can’t do a speed test on wifi. So many things can interfere with it. Plug a laptop into the back of the router with a cat5e cable (or better) then run the same test. I’m not saying you don’t have an issue, as you may well might, but at least you can rule out the wifi signal.

  • XIXMusic Yung General (@XIXMusic) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, I'm having massive issues with my WiFi today. It's been rebooted several times. It'll work for a bit then cut out again. A green light has come on a few times.

  • sapphicfrog spooky froggie 🐸 (@sapphicfrog) reported

    @virginmedia hi my broadband has been going down every few minutes for the past couple of days. website says no faults in post code area. have been turning router off/on no different still down. please advise?

  • HannahDefoe22 Kathy-Jane Stevenson #NicolaWalkerFan ❤️ (@HannahDefoe22) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had no internet for two days and I’m being told that I have to wait until Friday for someone to come out and fix it!

  • keezo1985 Neil Keenan (@keezo1985) reported

    @virginmedia While I’ve removed the white box inside my house I still have some cabling coming through the wall from the brown box outside. Is this something that VM is able to remove for me as I worry about causing issues to be broadband connection if I try to remove them myself.

  • avenger_grey Jedi Avenger 🖤✊🏿🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦♿💛💜 (@avenger_grey) reported

    @virginmedia your broadband is terrible! I pay you £66 a month for the privilege of constant WiFi drops or complete Internet outage. We've had a replacement router but it's still happening every day. You're not providing the service I pay for!

  • MrRumpy Mr Rumpy (@MrRumpy) reported

    @virginmedia No, I have tried to raise a complaint 12 times over phone, online and WhatsApp, every time being put through to another department. The worst customer service I’ve ever had

  • Blueboo_UKF Beverley S (@Blueboo_UKF) reported

    @virginmedia bad request on website when trying to amend package and long queue on phone.

  • pancaketheduck Snake Plisken🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@pancaketheduck) reported
