  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Hi there. Whenever we go to the iPlayer app it crashes the whole Virgin system which has to be turned off and on again. Been like that for 24 hours. Can you help please?

  • SalesRemedy Terry Carney 👋 (@SalesRemedy) reported from Sheering, England

    @virginmedia Ongoing issues; On ZOOM lag issue. On Netflix during viewing stops, whirls and often crashes. Day to day work, slow load on web browsers, crashes daily even with Ethernet run to office in house. Upgraded recently now £114 a month and still awful WiFi. How do I cancel my contract?

  • LongshanksE10 Richard Astley (@LongshanksE10) reported from Bishop's Stortford, England

    @virginmedia Think the menu options are slightly different on the 360 software but I found network diagnostics and signal quality is “Good” and connection speed is “high”. Does that help?

  • TrudyLea1 Trudy Lea (@TrudyLea1) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    Any advice on getting in touch with @virginmedia tried ringing, just get cut off, tried website, just crashes, I’m currently spending £100+ a month, for a service I’m just not getting 😔 #HadEnoughNow

  • Chezzyp68 Cheron Phillips🇧🇧 (@Chezzyp68) reported from Stansted Mountfitchet, England

    @virginmedia I have received a virtual engineer call this morning. Apparently there is an issue in the area. There is no notification on the app to say this though.

  • TrudyLea1 Trudy Lea (@TrudyLea1) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    Could someone from @virginmedia please tell me if the internet is down in the CM21 area? I have no tv, internet or telephone connection. TV is showing error code (W02) many thanks #Help

  • Kevinj86 🅺🅴🆅🅸🅽 🅹🅴🅽🅽🅸🅽🅶🆂 (@Kevinj86) reported from Harlow, England

    Getting bombarded with calls from someone saying they work for @virginmedia and I have a problem with my broadband - five times this week! #nightmare @Ofcom

  • lotfredjanlee Lee Gildersleve (@lotfredjanlee) reported from Watton at Stone, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is so bad that come 7pm we have to switch it if on our phones and use our data. I’ve just tried to book a service call only to be told I can’t as they are doing work on our area and it will automatically get cancelled. It’s been bad for a year now!!!!

  • Chezzyp68 Cheron Phillips🇧🇧 (@Chezzyp68) reported from Stansted Mountfitchet, England

    @virginmedia That I still need to have an engineer attend. I keep getting mixed messages! Had to book one for next Saturday. Potentially that could be 2 weeks without a full service

  • mrpattani Bijal Pattani (@mrpattani) reported from Sheering, England

    @virginmedia really really bad service, will there be a point when you can get something right. Beginning to wonder why I switched. #virginmedia #complaint #nothappy

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @virginmedia No apparently there are ongoing issues in my area Cm5 9az which you are hoping to resolved by the 5th but not definite i just wish you would inform customers when these faults occur rather than us chasing you up

  • Jimbob_Du james Dunn (@Jimbob_Du) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia I received a phone call from a man , Jacob Smith purporting to be from your security department. He told me my internet had been hacked by someone in the USA. He refused any contact details after he told me to download a Quick Support app. He phoned 01606863673.

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @virginmedia We have had no coverage over the weekend in december we were without service for 10 days this seems to be an ongoing problem which you are failing to cure

  • Juju79 Julie Lawrence (@Juju79) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia I have tried calling the customer service number but it says the call cannot be connected.

  • Jimbob_Du james Dunn (@Jimbob_Du) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia your customer service is unbelievably pathetic. You think paying me £50 discount will resolve my contempt for your service, well it won’t. It took you 6 weeks before anyone even contacted me. I pay for 300 meg WiFi, I’m lucky if I get 20.

  • TrudyLea1 Trudy Lea (@TrudyLea1) reported from Sawbridgeworth, England

    @virginmedia Hi, When trying to watch anything “on demand” it continuously crashes, and we get a variety of error codes, and anything HD, doesn’t load at all. My 2nd box doesn’t work, it just stays on the start up page with the circle spinning. We have pretty much lost wifi upstairs. Help!

  • MatthewSaggers Matthew Saggers (@MatthewSaggers) reported from Harlow, England

    @virginmedia 150 all departments are shut, my virgin media app keeps having a 500 error code. How do we contact some to move an appointment due to family emergency. Shame for a communication company users can't communicate with you.

  • Garyonline1 Gary dorrington (@Garyonline1) reported from Chipping Ongar, England

    @virginmedia Also it would be nice for someone to point out what is the problem we are currently having.

  • Jimbob_Du james Dunn (@Jimbob_Du) reported from Hoddesdon, England

    @virginmedia You obviously don’t read my tweets. I complained and it took 6 weeks to reply. Your company is really pathetic, and has no customer service.

  • sarahcoysgabb sarah gabb (@sarahcoysgabb) reported from Broxbourne District, England

    @virginmedia can someone in the tech team please dm me as I have had no internet stability now for 2 months and no human is answering the phone not good when homeschooling

  • roonymartin84 Roony Martin (@roonymartin84) reported

    @virginmedia not had a 5g signal on my Hub3 for over 24 hours noweven though online it’s saying there’s no problems. 2g signal hasn’t been reliable either, cutting off Wi-Fi to devices regularly. Done all the checks and multiple reboots to no avail.

  • Pine_Freshness N (@Pine_Freshness) reported

    @virginmedia why is the router dropping it's signal repeatedly? This has been happening for days.

  • adamjames28 adam james (@adamjames28) reported
