Barrie J Stephenson (@barstep) reported from York, England@virginmedia 24 to 48 hours to obtain a PAC code from you is not acceptable. Why are your systems not working? I tried using a text message but directed to make a quick phone call. After 20 minutes (quick?) on a call I’m told your system is generating error codes.

Guy Rushworth (@dreadedwhisky) reported from York, England@virginmedia Thanks for the response. As far as I’m aware I can’t text you so you can run diagnostics. I also can’t call you free. As my phone won’t connect with your network all of a sudden. The phone is fine as the SIM card I had to buy to keep working is having no issues.

Barrie J Stephenson (@barstep) reported from York, England@virginmedia It’s now the 9th day since I requested a PAC code from VM. So I filed a complaint, spoke to OFCOM and within an hour I had my PAC code. My faith in VM is zero - my faith in OFCOM is 10 out of 10.
-
Barrie J Stephenson (@barstep) reported from York, England@virginmedia Thanks for your advice about the forums. A very helpful person tried to help but apparently no result. I called 789 again today. A ticket has been raised 3-5 days before I get a result. THREE TO FIVE DAYS is not acceptable. OFCOM says I should get a code with A MINUTE

David Brierley 🍺 🏌️♂️ (@davidlbrierley) reported@virginmedia I have to switch the subtitles on again if I change the channel ? These are the main concerns regarding the 'upgrade' which unfortunately I am stuck with Surely if you have the technology to upgrade you will have the technology to achieve a down grade
-
Alexis “Cozy Bear” Lockhart (@AlexisAdamsTTV) reportedMy internet is down again. My modem is making buzzing noises @VirginMediaIE @virginmedia. So sorry, guys. I’ll be away from Twitter and YouTube for a while 🥺🥺🥺
-
Tre (@Liafreytre) reported@AndrewW12290183 @virginmedia They never send them. Still have old crap of theirs from years ago.
-
Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported@virginmedia @CriticalRole @LessThanJake I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!
-
Sam Reynolds (@samr_1986) reported@virginmedia I joined in Dec 2025 at £23.99 a month and my broadband price has already increased in April 2026 after only a few months. I’m really disappointed with how quickly the advertised price changed. Can someone review my account and help with a better deal please?
-
Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported@virginmedia we’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. It is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently
-
Ben C (@BenChubb4) reportedHey @virginmedia still 2hrs and 20 mins remaining to call me like you said you would to update/fix the fact that I’ve had no email access on any device for 11 days. Only 2 days over your last SLA. P.s. Thanks m not available to speak to Saturday, Sunday Monday

Nicola Golding (@NicolaG01) reportedDay 3 of no internet and almost zero communication from @virginmedia. Got a text on Friday saying issue fixed (clearly not) and nothing since. Went on the service tracker to sign up for updates. Still nothing.
