  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia reported slow speeds on Sunday. Promised a call back between 2 and 4 hours. Not received. Not getting the minimum guaranteed broadband speed yet paying in full. Proving difficult to speak to anybody. You appear not to care. #poorcustomerservice

  • TheICC_Sandra Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    Great service from online service (text) and very helpful call from technical support today from @virginmedia, new hub on way to hopefully resolve issues #customerservice #FirstWorldProblems

  • Stephjjmn Steph Nash (@Stephjjmn) reported from Wigan, England

    @stevenfrost3003 @virginmedia @skytv We had the same problems, went to Sky who are much cheaper with better deals and service, never looked back 👍🏼

  • helen_c_murphy Helen C Murphy (@helen_c_murphy) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia having issues with connectivity & slow speed. I'm working from home & this is causing me a LOT of stress. I still have targets. Hard to do when the internet is crawling & up & down like a yoyo. Been like this for 2 weeks. Diagnostics say no problem 😥😭

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia spoken to your “customer service”. Advised that promises for call back on live chat cannot be traced and nothing they could do. The call centre apparently has no record of live chat conversations. Advisor seemed to blame me! For a media company very poorly connected

  • renzair Renzair (@renzair) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia If your internet service to St. Helens could be anything other than complete dogshit for more than five minutes that’d be swell. Since 7:30 this morning, constant outages of internet service. STILL happening at 16:00. Thanks (for nothing). Again.

  • scottcvrroll Scott Carroll (@scottcvrroll) reported from Liverpool, England

    @JacobAlderHam @virginmedia Shocking isn’t it mate, I’ve not been able to use streaming devices or gaming devices for a few weeks without constant spikes and buffering. I pay for 200 down and receive about 40... so much packet loss. Shambles.

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia also run tests. All came back fine. Significantly below minimum guaranteed speed. Average 20mbps. Disappointed that I was promised a call and never got it. Been on hold too long. Appalling service.

  • colinlit colin littlejohns (@colinlit) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Why is broadband so bad @virginmedia please confirm as ypur service is appalling

  • KathyyyLouiseee Kathy Louise (@KathyyyLouiseee) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to someone urgently about Virgin showing a missed payment on my credit history back in August 2018, when I cancelled my internet back in June 2018 (which was made incredibly difficult by poor customer service at the time)

  • ewart71 Jim Ewart (@ewart71) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia It’s not fixed yet @virginmedia still intermittently losing internet won the wired connection also on demand still not working without dropping out and encountering errors - get it fixed as we are sick of paying you top end broadband for nothing

  • Bwfc1976 Gareth barlow.... (@Bwfc1976) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I can't get in touch to cancel my Internet pls help me out

  • HelenLloyd66 Tweety Pie 🐥 (@HelenLloyd66) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia My internet and TV has been very spasmodic for a few weeks now which is annoying however it has and been down now for 24 hours. I am highly vulnerable and cannot leave the house no TV no internet this is not a service

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • UnderDefinite DP (@UnderDefinite) reported

    Seems like Virgin media is trying to force people to go back to office instead of working from home by getting their broadband down every morning.

  • shantravers Shannon Conroy (@shantravers) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not reaching my living room. The engineer said it won’t reach and the app saying the same. Spent all morning speaking to advisors who want to charge an extra £3pm for a service that hasn’t worked since day 1!

  • itz_Robbo1 Jack Robinson (@itz_Robbo1) reported

    @virginmedia has to be the worst internet provider ever

  • Brujamedusa Cha Cha (@Brujamedusa) reported

    @virginmedia is the worst customer service and broadband I have ever experienced.. 2 months later and my issue still isn’t resolved. I thought @SkyUK broadband was temperamental but it has nothing on virgin. Plus they have much better customer service! Back to sky I go 🥴

  • ThatsSoNova Nova 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@ThatsSoNova) reported

    @virginmedia Called and they couldn’t help, engineer will call back within 4 hours to try and help.

  • madclam1970 Jason Robertson 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@madclam1970) reported

    @virginmedia The postcode says there is no problem and I cannot sign in to test it because its my wife's account and I don't know the details. She is disabled and takes a lot of morphine so she sleeps a lot
