-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia Every one of your engineers that I’ve spoken to have also warned me that your customer service is diabolical. The only truth I’ve been told by a Virgin rep

Trevor Webb (@WebbTowers) reported from Hedge End, EnglandHi Is there a problem in the SO30 area? @virginmedia
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia I raised a complaint previously, and then found out a week later that the complaint hadn’t been processed. I had to raise it again. It seems something deep-rooted is wrong with virgins customer service systems.

Spider (@KpRoebuck) reported from Eastleigh, England@virginmedia I have twice called to discuss the price of my package & twice, after eventually speaking to someone, they attempt to transfer me to customer services but cut me off. I've been with Virgin for over a decade but I'm being penalised for my loyalty. Please help
-
Mike Thornton (@Mike4Eastleigh) reported from Fair Oak, England@virginmedia So absolutely no help from Virgin Media. My broadband is down. I go on line and it says there are no issues in SO50 6BP. I click on fox my broad band and of course it can’t because I have NO broadband!
-
David Wright (@Mr_PaintPots) reported from Southampton, England@virginmedia Thank you for responding, one of your team has now picked this up so fingers crossed someone gets in touch. Why have you made it so difficult to get support? Can you not provide an obvious option on your website please?
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England@virginmedia The same live date of the 21st still stands. Virgin have repeatedly guaranteed they’ll get it ready for then. Perhaps you can give them a nudge to let them know they have 3 days to get the outside work done. I’m sensing another let down, and I bet you won’t do anything about it!
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia Look back through my previous tweets. After 3 months of cancellations from Virgin, lies and let downs - I’ve had to cancel the agreement completely
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England@virginmedia Still no call. Still no service. Still no customer support whatsoever from virgin media.
-
Sarah McGinty (@sarah_mcginty) reported from Andover, England@virginmedia @virginmedia issues again with tv & Internet, seems to be a theme for this week as not first time .There is nothing on service status :-( any idea?!

-
Simply Norwegian (@simplynorwegian) reported@virginmedia I need some help resolving an unauthorised account creation, outstanding unlawful charges and failure to resolve despite numerous calls and written correspondence dating back to October 2025. What number can I call to speak to someone with authority to end this??
-
Andy Rossiter (@andy_rossiter76) reported@virginmedia Who's bright idea was it to switch landline phones over to digital optic ?? We have the landline in the livingroom, but the internet hub is in the bedroom. Also when the internet goes down, will this mean the phone goes down too ??
-
toastyborg (@Demon__Cyborg) reported@virginmedia absolutely sucks. They won’t even help me unlock my email and I’ve apparently been blacklisted for not doing anything???
-
Mike (@mikegormley2003) reported@virginmedia WIFI been down for a few days, engineer comes, says he can’t fix it and leaves. No proof he was here and nothing to say he’ll fix it! Shockingly poor service DD5 1EJ
-
David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported@virginmedia if you fail to provide a promised refund and fail to deal with a complaint is there any hope that you might engage with me here?
-
Eden Gem (@edengem) reported@virginmedia Gadget Rescue overseas don’t really know how to help - plus 3x tech people. Please advise how to reach the cancel service team please. Thank you
-
Told You So (@TYS20212) reported@Oxford_Life @virginmedia The new tv box is absolutely abysmal, the worst “upgrade” in history. If it wasn’t for lack of high speed broadband alternatives here we would be off like a shot.
-
Stephanie 🇬🇧 (@stephiejmc) reported@virginmedia Ok thanks just worried cause like see what I pay in front be ne cause can’t access your online service account . Plus just worried going under contract after 10 + years and we all know virgin widely known for fudging up on things .
-
ScouseRasta (@ScouseRasta) reported@virginmedia 3 times in the last 2 days my broadband has been down for, around 5 hours this morning and again for the past hour! Get your **** together before I move to different provider along with a lot of other people. Don’t even offer any compensation for an outage, shocking!
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@virginmedia OK, leaving aside the fact it seems pretty poor that I haven't had a reply from the original agent for four days now I'm happy enough to send a repeat of it IF I don't need to faff about going through security yet AGAIN? IF I do-I'll just wait for a reply to the original DMs. OK?
