    @virginmedia Please message me re: new generation V6 box faults. No Netflix, recordings will not play, very slow. Please DON’T tell me to switch off/on or re-boot. Thanks.

  • kevello afc warner colts u15s (@kevello) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia any chance of getting a call to sort internet out been losing signal for weeks now won’t come on 😡

  • Hortini Rick Houghton (@Hortini) reported from Liverpool, England

    I see @virginmedia have it sorted. You can only cancel or suspend your sports subscription if you call them. Reduced call centres meaning massive waits on the phone. But if you don’t pay they cut your internet and tv off at the time of most need. Let us do it online!!!!

  • Dannymaddog Danny McKeown-Henshall (@Dannymaddog) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @PeterBayliss @Ofcom Must be a local issue for you - I’ve been relying on @ThreeUK for broadband as my @virginmedia 100mbps fibre line has been epically slow even phone calls made on Wifi calling are bad, switch to mobile and it’s perfect 👌

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Penwortham, England

    Wow @virginmedia love how your retention team just put the disconnection through and never offered me any thing to even try and convince me to stay

    @jamiec1995 @virginmedia Won’t show the 5G network on the wireless at all, reboots back the the 2G one its saving the settings then when you click WiFi it’s not there and reverts back to only showing the previous WiFi’s

  • dredzombie Chris Morris (@dredzombie) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

  • Bridgey36 Bridgeman ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@Bridgey36) reported from Eccleston, England

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • NickaAnthony Nick Antoniou (@NickaAnthony) reported

    @edward_baran @virginmedia Dig around Sky, see what offers they have. I think I pay £21 a month for it. Which is nothing compared to the £75+ a month I was paying for Virgin and £43 of it was for broadband that never worked.

  • HeadleyLeMuir Graham Muirhead (@HeadleyLeMuir) reported

    @virginmedia So apparently an engineer was fixing the problem today. Well that said engineer was about as much use as an impotent ****** tester because the problem is still there

  • therealsambo121 COME ON YOU ******* REDMEN (@therealsambo121) reported

    @virginmedia I want out of my contract now . The loss of service is absolutely joke and it's not funny .

  • G00NIES85 Lawrence ‘Chunk’ Cohen (@G00NIES85) reported

    @virginmedia Can you please DM me, I need to send a complaints reference number and my information and have you organise the escalation of the complaint. As I’ve had enough. I’ve had one reply via email and I’ve replied TWO weeks ago - and been ignored. This is unacceptable.

  • SimmoSimms Jess Pearson (@SimmoSimms) reported

    @virginmedia It just says it can see there is an intermittant signal and it needs further testing. Then the site says oops...theres a fault and we cant test. Try again later

  • GuyOnTrains Random Guy On Trains (@GuyOnTrains) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I've had issues getting a decent signal in certain areas. I've used the coverage checker and in the areas where I frequently have issues it says the expected coverage is a good signal both indoors and outdoors, which I'm afraid isn't the case in my experience. (Continues...)

  • butmummylane Maria Lane (@butmummylane) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not they haven’t been able to help they’re just not answering despite it saying 3 mins and when I did speak to someone she said she was customer service and will transfer me .. yes I’ll talk to you on one of those chats

  • Brill8 Craig Brill (@Brill8) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia are being difficult to deal with and not trying to find a solution with @cisas and CISAS are letting Virgin get away with a poor customer service. This complaint has been ongoing far too long and I’m a very unhappy customer that can’t wait to change provider! #ofcom

  • NW6Penguin Napoleon (@NW6Penguin) reported

    @virginmedia can your customer services arrange to send me a new tivo500 as promised by the engineer who visited who could not fix my service. He said all I'd have to do is call and, ask as its in my case file. Do not fob me off with another visit, I have to go to work.

  • JoyceBealtaine joyce kelly (@JoyceBealtaine) reported

    @jamesfahey15 Bad forecast from RTE and Virgin media
