  • aazarov Alexander Azarov (@aazarov) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia do you know if your mobile network is usable beyond TfL Zone 4? I have been having slow connectivity in the past couple of weeks in Ickenham, but visiting Bath this weekend showed that it could be much worse.

    @virginmedia Why isn’t our internet working properly after your peeps came to ‘fix’ things in the area?! Help!!!

  • mattbutlerhart Matthew Butler-Hart (@mattbutlerhart) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia Tried that. It’s all automated, they said run diagnostics etc, switch it off/on etc…then hung up. Still not working

  • allunbobroberts Allun Roberts 🇺🇦 (@allunbobroberts) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia The worst part is you say 30% rise in bills will make you more resilient and less prone to defective services, this isn’t true… @virginmedia

  • DinnerReginald Bombay Aloo (@DinnerReginald) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @FleeceBristol @virginmedia Virgin media is terrible. I live in bs15 and my 4G is better than my WiFi #virginmedia

  • leeradcliffe73 lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Pilton, England

    @virginmedia having real bad issues with my broadband and why does it say weak security on my phone. Help a man out 🙄

  • lewisduncan5 Duncan Lewis (@lewisduncan5) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia @BBCNews is @virginmedia down, can not log anything websites no Twitter post updates can’t even log a fault?

  • allunbobroberts Allun Roberts 🇺🇦 (@allunbobroberts) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia And the other £3bn did what? 10% data increase is not an excuse to increase my bill by 30% and not increase my service. #wasteofmoney and #wasteoftime

  • allunbobroberts Allun Roberts 🇺🇦 (@allunbobroberts) reported from Warkleigh, England

    Quick question, if @virginmedia made £5.9B last year why is my bill increasing by 30% per month? No additional services, no increased bandwidth and 1 UHD channel #CustomerSatisfaction is poor! Think that @SkyUK might be cheaper! #compare

  • chrisovett Chris Ovett (@chrisovett) reported from Warkleigh, England

    Hi @virginmedia my internet is still down, I've tried to call you three time now but it hangs up after 30 mins. Can you assist me here?

  • mikecollingham Mike Collingham (@mikecollingham) reported from Ilfracombe, England

    @reece_dinsdale @virginmedia Do yourself a favour and cancel.

  • mattbutlerhart Matthew Butler-Hart (@mattbutlerhart) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia It’s not really working. Hugely slow, can’t upload/download things. Tried to run scans on my app but it keeps saying there’s a problem. It sometimes worlds, but when it does it’s super slow

  • Photogaphotogr1 Photogaphotography (@Photogaphotogr1) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia There you answered my question 100% your service is no where near 02 high standards as they never charge upfront on any mobile contract

  • lisakbristol lisa kuras (@lisakbristol) reported from Warkleigh, England

    @virginmedia the most dreadful service provider known to mankind no customer service and they do not treat customers fairly avoid at all costs

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Alessan18778199 Alessandro Casoli (@Alessan18778199) reported

    @virginmedia I have now raised a complaint and will proceed with the ombudsman if this isn't resolved.

  • SteveMachin1 Steve Machin (@SteveMachin1) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I’ve checked them. The thing I’m annoyed about is the lack of notice. I’m an environment where a huge amount of people are still working from home, having no notice is terrible. The timing isn’t great either!

  • DuncanDsrdrly Lindsay (@DuncanDsrdrly) reported

    @virginmedia I called your support services, who discovered that my account had been closed without me requesting it. I have raised a complaint, not least because I got no notice of this and it will take up to 48 hours to reconnect.

  • AlibumD patriotic REJOINER who’s the REMOANER now? 💙 (@AlibumD) reported

    @virginmedia please give me a phone number to arrange for an engineer your website has driven us demented, wifi not working no catch up on tv not netflix for over 2 weeks, already done multiple resets

  • echrl_ Emma Charlton (@echrl_) reported

    If @virginmedia don’t sort my wifi out today, after nearly two weeks of it being broken, I might actually have a complete melt down.

  • Dejong95 Danny Dejong (@Dejong95) reported

    @virginmedia Are engineers currently trying to fix the problem? A 36 hour downtime isnt good especially when a lot of people are still working from home

  • Jack32X Jack Langley (@Jack32X) reported

    WFH for the first time in months and Virgin Media decides to have a massive outage. ETA 3pm today. Kill me

  • palf29 Richard Palframan (@palf29) reported

    @virginmedia As I said before my main complaint is still your customer service. I can’t believe nobody had ever rung me to apologise and discuss my issues

  • HowDare22555048 HowDareYou (@HowDare22555048) reported

    @virginmedia When will you useless lot fooking get it right? You fooking sent an engineer to connect at a new address and still no fooking Internet. Fooking do something about it instead of continuously telling me to contact useless customer service. WHY THE **** SHOULD I?

  • KeithParsons81 Keith Parsons. (@KeithParsons81) reported

    @KatharineMerry @virginmedia I had a nightmare Katharine when I left them. Owed me over £400 and took ages. Hope your issue is resolved soon.
