    Hi @virginmedia I've been having TV issues for a few days today is really bad missing channels - error code W02, and intermittent pictures on others

    I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

    @CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.

  • BeanBolt
    BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia It says no issue in the area, then when I click "still having issues" the local scan shows intermittent outages in the area, been like this for 24hrs+

  • geordiegal97

    @virginmedia broadband is down. WiFi light is solid green whilst the bar is flashing green. Help!

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I've never had this much issue as I have had today. I'm plugged in on ethernet, I've reset my hub, and checked my area and there is no issue at all. My WiFi is working from my hub but yet its booting me out of Destiny 2 and not just that but the chat parties on PS5 itself

  • timmycooke
    Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!

  • FloButcher84
    strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?

  • Adzcantsing
    Adz can't sing (@Adzcantsing) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia useless we are trying to cancel and for past 2 weeks now since we have moved home. We have been pushed from pillar to post, been laughed at by customer service. Since we moved we have we've been promised someone will come and sort it.

  • obpls1995
    owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

  • Duddydudson
    Kevin Dudson (@Duddydudson) reported from Wigan, England

    @NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!

  • PIL0TPEDR0
    Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Yet again an intermittent service in Area 20 BL1 2 this has now gone beyond a joke, paying for a service and not getting it

  • ylilxanoi
    🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Yeah.. apparently its down in WN1 but nobody is telling me what's wrong or how long it will take. I need Internet to work.

  • pillbo01
    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That number is a automated response not a customer service agent and an utter waste of time

  • Elisabet0490
    🪷Elisabet🪷 (@Elisabet0490) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been suffering drop outs all day, now I have no working TV or internet. Being told it's my equipment when it never is, it's getting old that excuse. I will apparently have to wait 3 days for "an engineer to come out" - I can't I have to go to work 😤

  • fos100
    Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England

    Since I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?

  • PaulRegent1
    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

  • lambypies
    SJL (@lambypies) reported

    @tom550993 Haggled Virginmedia down to £50 a month for decent broadband, one set top box for live TV and the middle TV package. Now TV and Netflix still trials less than £75. If I could get a decent reception with an aerial I would ditch the box too.

  • stephiejmc
    Stephanie 🇬🇧 (@stephiejmc) reported

    @virginmedia Ok thanks just worried cause like see what I pay in front be ne cause can’t access your online service account . Plus just worried going under contract after 10 + years and we all know virgin widely known for fudging up on things .

  • ScottishC87
    Scottish (@ScottishC87) reported

    @Ripple300X did you ever get to the bottom of your packet loss issues on Downbad? Speaking to Joby he says you had to stop playing. Having the same issue elsewhere or only on Downbad? I'm trying to talk to Virgin Media just now.

  • Demon__Cyborg
    toastyborg (@Demon__Cyborg) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely sucks. They won’t even help me unlock my email and I’ve apparently been blacklisted for not doing anything???

  • Neek49
    Monique Bissell (@Neek49) reported

    @virginmedia I understand, however your estimates keep extending without any end in sight. We don’t get this service for free. We pay for it. At what point do you let us know that it is broken beyond repair and we should move on. I can handle us breaking up for good, promise

  • KathyMi25429227
    Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi cutting out twice today and in last 2 days. Inconvenient at best. Why? Postcode says no issues..

  • jonno153
    Shakermaker (@jonno153) reported

    @virginmedia hello, I’ve been having WiFi problems for some time now. I already have a WiFi pod in the home but if I move it then we get another dead spot. I have called about this but was told that I need to have a speed test below 30mbps.

  • deanspread
    Deano (@deanspread) reported

    @virginmedia Well I’m at work now but it was working then going off for a couple minutes then back on all day. Then about 9pm went off for 20 mins then back on. Went on your page to check the service and it was saying nothing was wrong.

  • granth1974
    Neil G (@granth1974) reported

    @virginmedia hey virgin, you've downgraded my Netflix account without my permission. I'm mid contract. That's not allowed. I want it back to without ads asap or I reserve the right to cancel you without notice.
