-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, EnglandSince 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/?
-
UtilitaRian 🔶 (@SoloUtilitaRian) reported from Bolton, EnglandWith the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless
-
Ian Forrest (@IanForrest10) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia Plugged in new Wi-Fi hub all good. Paired new remote with box but upgrade to box failed error code M63. Bot is all over place customer service rep basically non-engineer saying turn it off on again!
-
sarah (@ms_sasmassey) reported from Preston, EnglandHi @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
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, EnglandDay 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH
-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England@virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop
-
BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England@virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia
-
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+
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia Internet is down in our area since Monday. I keep getting multiple emails saying it'll be fixed by 12pm tomorrow, then 4pm Wednesday 12pm Thursday, 12pm Friday and now 4pm Friday. None of your call centre staff can help us we've spent hours on hold this week.
-
🪷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 😤
-
zach close YT 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, EnglandBefore covid came you was brilliant @virginmedia but ever since then you have been really **** and if it not sorted by next Sunday we are leaving you it literally 2023 and you still got **** service
-
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.

-
strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia still no broadband in bb3 area since Thurs & update now says tomorrow for fix. Shocking customer service, why can't you tell your customers what is happening instead of saying an engineer is on the way on the updates, at least then we would know what to expect
-
Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Done all that and booked an engineer for Friday but just had a text saying my engineer is on hold while investigate a network problem affecting services
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@Virgin @virginmedia #virginmediadown #VirginMedia Imagine paying £52 a month for Internet to be down for 5 days. We work from home. I've used all my 4g, had to buy more to do my job yet when you call up they say it'll be fixed by.. and keeps being postponeded. Fix it Virgin.
-
Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia Still having problems there is a fault in the area, supposed to be fixed by 16:25 today, over 24 hours without Internet is a joke

billy winter (@billywi56359173) reported@virginmedia tried calling and it’s impossible to get through to anyone, my bill keeps going up and up and up and the service keeps getting worse and worse, so I try and swap supplier and now you’re charging me nearly £300 to leave early.
-
Jay Ess Bee (@punjabihammer) reported@obbsie @virginmedia Hence I left and went to @SkyUK Their call centre isn’t a machine, and if you’re not happy with the initial contact ask to speak to a supervisor and problems do get resolved.
-
Derek 💛NCFC💚 (@boswell_derek) reported@virginmedia I’ve been on the phone to your call centre for 70mins and still waiting for my call to be answered.Shameful customer service.
