    Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia getting so sick of having to deal with you. Raised a complaint in August had one missed call in August and a letter in September saying you would get it touch only to be told you are now closing the complaint cause I haven’t spoke to you..... seriously this is a joke

    Hayley Dumont (@knitting_tsuki) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia The service is slow (even sitting next to router I get <50Mbps) and drops out frequently but irregular intervals & not linked to usage. Has been getting worse since we renewed in June.

    @virginmedia I’m unable to log into my ntlworld email. Any idea why?? Says my password is incorrect but when I try change it, it then says my email address doesn’t exist. Help please! Trying to plan my nans funeral and all my emails go to that account!

    @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.

    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.

    On the subject of horrendous customer service, just been told by @virginmedia as I ordered an upgrade to my broadband speed, it means for next week, my speed will be slower than it was in the beginning. And that’s after a 20 min call yesterday, and a 45 minute call today 😬😬😬

  • bruce_mcdowell

    @virginmedia morning, try to help my elderly mum out, WiFi has been off since last Friday, she also out of contract and we can’t get through to any advisor? Help please

    Has anyone else on Virgin Media struggled to get online for the past 40mins? Oh, and O2 having no mobile data signal as well? 😡 Great start to a Monday morning.

    @virginmedia 50 minutes on the phone. 6 operatives. Nobody can tell me when the fibre will be fixed. First today. Then Monday. Then the 17th. Then the 22nd. Then the 17th again. Like I said - a shambles. Service cancelled. @Ofcom @bt_uk @SkyMediaUK #hitmeup

    @virginmedia Hi so yeah your router will not connect to my pc or laptop unless it physically connected (meaning I had to buy my own Ethernet over power kit) also my TV set top box has been spotty ever since we moved here. The complaint was to see if I can get some form of compensation for the

    @yardley24619673 @virginmedia You asked when you posted on social media. I only asked why you carried on if the sales man was so bad. Would you buy a car if the sales man was so bad

    @virginmedia @kerrylouise15 Same issue (again).

  • fogey
    Gareth 🇪🇺 (@fogey) reported from York, England

    I’ve never had a heartbroken ex (my last was over 30 years ago and it took her months to notice I’d gone) but I imagine it’s a similar experience to leaving @virginmedia - suddenly they’re attentive and concerned, and won’t stop asking me why I left. Bit late for that now, love.

  • FulfordPhil
    Phil Marsland (@FulfordPhil) reported from York, England

    @bt_uk repeated calls from allegedly BT Open Reach saying slow internet speeds/internet compromised. I'm with @virginmedia and when questioned they just hung up 01234222910 number. It's a scam to take control of your computer and get your personal data.

  • MattAtko
    Matt Atkinson (@MattAtko) reported from York, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV broadband and TV down again in YO31, for 24hrs….the worst service ever….do you even care? Compensation is rubbish, and does not cover lost earnings and enjoyment.

  • danobell
    dan bell (@danobell) reported from Haxby, England

    @virginmedia I have no tv or internet I’m in york. Funny how I can’t get hold of technical support but yet you lot can ring me trying to get me to “upgrade” my tv package.

    Dry weather: good internet service Rain: internet fails Rain stops: internet back up again @virginmedia “Our service is working fine.”

    @virginmedia Yeah, it said same to me as well, but the problem not in my house. I said : nobody has internet connection who use virgin media in the street! I asked them!

    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. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.

  • ambo1992
    Amber Carter ⎊ (@ambo1992) reported

    @virginmedia been trying to get through on live chat all day, it now appears to be completely broken. WhatsApp option doesn’t work either. Please can anyone help? Impossible to get through by any means

    Not only that but they said they’d call me to discuss next steps . What next steps @VirginMediaIE ?!! What could I possibly contribute to solving the issue. This isn’t good enough @virginmedia. I have friends also experiencing problems with VM .

    @virginmedia Status update now trying to blame my kit again when you've already acknowledged there's a problem locally over the phone. No updates or tracking for the issue. Can't work *or* relax atm without. Please provide an actual update.

    @bt_uk I'd like to know why your business broadband so called service, can only compound its utter uselessness with skyscraper level brain numbing stupidity? I thought @vmbusiness was utterly indescribably ****, until you came along. You literally make them look like geniuses.
