  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down completely. Need to work from home, what's going on.

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia I’ve contacted after last months bill and the bill before and before….I get told that I won’t be getting chased for the difference but I don’t understand why you just can’t get it right and fix it

  • MattyHankinson Matt Hankinson (@MattyHankinson) reported from St Helens, England

    @cathd100 @virginmedia I’m having the same issue! Annoying!!!!!

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The main thing here is that not one person who I have come into contact with in your organisation wants to take ownership of the problem and try and resolve it which is the essence of customer service. It’s a massive fail.

  • boardchik Katy Molyneux (@boardchik) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia Internet is down again!!! I don’t need this when working from home! And before you ask I have done every step you ask us to do!!

  • 1agsgsg John (@1agsgsg) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia live chat, phone lines no one answers all I want to do is cancel my service

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia no service from 2nd box so phoned customer service. Automated voice says text with link will be sent. Call ends. Text arrived. Pressed link takes me to page which says that link isn't working. Customer service is a joke.

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia please provide a direct contact for complaints. Sick of the poor service and mistakes that I have had every month since joining you

  • Christerphurr Chris Mann (@Christerphurr) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia Hi, my broadband has just gone off is there a known issue in my area or do I need to book an engineer ?

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I am getting no service via the 2nd box whatsoever. The box light does not change from red. Tried switching off at the wall. Checked leads & have swapped over HDMI lead all to no avail.

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @KindredUK @virginmedia The entire city it down it seems.

  • Christerphurr Chris Mann (@Christerphurr) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia It just says to book an engineer, but I don’t want to book it incase it’s an external issue which will be fixed

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginhelp @lisa_sandland @virginmedia It's not Lisa's fault, it's YOURS!!! The whole of a city is down

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia please can I have a direct contact for complaints. I don’t want a generic email, I want someone higher to sort out the same issue I am having every month 😤😡🤬

  • john_taxi ☺johnshere (@john_taxi) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia We spend over £150 per month...We need help with our Virgin mobile account...The guy in India doesn't seem to understand

  • boardchik Katy Molyneux (@boardchik) reported from Standish, England

    @virginmedia my internet/tele are not working! Second time in the space of a few weeks

  • lucindaduffy12 Lucinda Duffy (@lucindaduffy12) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Anthony did arrive but very late and well after our 'slot' - he was under the impression customer services would have let us know? Such a shame to have had to complain, as he was so efficient and sorted things for us. Communication is key though!

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No I just need someone to take ownership of the problem and sort it out

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Broadband and phone lines down in the L4 area yet again!!! I wish to cancel my contract early as you are failing to keep to your side of the agreement and provide a reliable service!!!! Piss poor

  • Clare___bear Clare Bagan (@Clare___bear) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia just spoke to a lovely guy on the phone. However, I don’t understand how you can justify charging £40 + for a deal that is £32 online for a new customer. I’ve been with you 20 + years, nothing needs doing to the account. It’s already set up. No point being loyal?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • cerianne_talbot cerianne Talbot (@cerianne_talbot) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it says the Ethernet cable is not connected. I spent 2 hours on the phone with your call centre trying to sort and they were referring to the technical faults team but I’ve heard nothing like I’ve already said. It has never been connected by Ethernet cable it’s just happened

  • iamdarrenburke PetShopYeltz (@iamdarrenburke) reported

    @virginmedia @SkySports Get this log-in working......paying for glitchy service AGAIN (by the way the match finishes in an hour!!!)

  • SerendipityShah ANFIELD SOUTH (@SerendipityShah) reported

    @virginmedia Day 5... still no internet. Is anyone at virgin going to help me?

  • mattyboi1991 matt (@mattyboi1991) reported

    @virginmedia Not a problem now being told a new box was never ordered so from the last person I spoke to. Everyone is busy can’t even speak to cancellation team to leave. £10 in credit on my bill but only £5 taken off my next bill. Customer service team all liars

  • PGtwweets pam g (@PGtwweets) reported

    @nosrepat @virginmedia I think an SNP MP has previously raised this in Parliament. If you can sign up for services online you should be afforded the right to cancel them online rather than call up & wait in a queue.

  • pentop63 Andrew Sefton (@pentop63) reported

    @virginmedia my tv picture keeps breaking up on BBC 4 all other channels are fine. Box reset and diagnostics done but issue keeps happening...

  • Alancowsill Alan Cowsill (@Alancowsill) reported

    And all the Liverpool and Burnley fans say together "**** @virginmedia and their shite service!!" still no explanation from them with thousands of their customers unable to watch a match they've paid for!!! Maybe if we got "**** Virginmedia" trending they'd do something!

  • lkittykat_t Kat-T 🌹 (@lkittykat_t) reported

    @virginmedia Bullshit. Wifi and tv has been down for two consecutive days. No proper compensation for the two days pay my dad has lost or the fact I cannot upload my university work.

  • foxinthebox2010 föxintheböx2001 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 (@foxinthebox2010) reported

    @virginmedia This problem is still not resolved, does anyone actually care about customer service there? YOU ARE CHARGING ME FOR A SUBSCRIPTION I CANT GET.

  • meesharr mica swarbrick (@meesharr) reported

    @virginmedia I have already done all that and it says there’s no issues, got through to your contact centre and they tried to fob me off also which is why I’ve asked to log a complaint as I don’t get anywhere but for the last week I’ve had nothing but issues and speeds of no more than 5mbps.
