    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

    @virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!

    @virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

    Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia 3 times in 3 weeks we are without internet! We are paying for a service we are not able to use! Are we going to be compensated for this?

    kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, England

    I have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

    Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

    @richardbranson you really need to sort out your company @virginmedia they a robbing gets. That company is bad in all areas. Some advice for people trying to cancel record everything for proof as they say they have cancelled it then send you loads of bills 😡

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • supergran22
    Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  • LindzDDub
    Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…

  • alandean1878
    Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)

  • GreenwasBlue
    GreenWasBlue (@GreenwasBlue) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I've tried the online help to no avail.Just going round in circles. How do I get to book a visit by a human being?? 😡

  • CryptoDan2k
    CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did! Look at the last screen shot, that page was down as well with an error message. Useless copy and paste replys. Not helpful atall

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

  • SmithysMaud
    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

    @virginmedia Saturday 6th June 2026 and after being told all my recordings that I was in the middle of watching I've now lost and now my box and tv is unusable as the 360 is unworkable and shouldn't have been changed as if it's not broke don't fix it now it's broke and unfixable

  • matthew9head
    Matthew Head (@matthew9head) reported

    @virginmedia any reason why your down! @DAZNBoxing missing all the fight!!

  • rebeccaann1989
    rebecca ann jarvis (@rebeccaann1989) reported

    Hey @virginmedia any reason why your new update and the tv360 is unworkable and more confusing the help pages don't even answer my questions nor to they say what every single button on the remote do this needs fixing as soon as possible as before the update it was fine and worked

  • Gav288
    Gavin Lee (@Gav288) reported

    @virginmedia We moved house 29th May and took our contract with us. Nearly 2 weeks later and we still have no TV services. Spent over 8 hours on the phone since we moved, been told it’s an IT issue but still not resolved. Is the IT guy on holiday?

  • Dadcrusher
    Julian (@Dadcrusher) reported

    @virginmedia Customer service with Virgin is again a nightmare. Started an online conversation at 10am and haven’t from Mahir in over 30 minutes.Obviously they feel that my time doesn’t matter as much as theirs.

  • Vicky51308928
    Vicky 💖 (@Vicky51308928) reported

    @virginmedia have some cheek charging what they do for a very unreliable service! No offer of paying you back for the time you are unable to use your devices in the house. Thankfully I have mobile data. Yet again my child who has no understanding is distressed.

  • SallyBriars
    Sally Briars (@SallyBriars) reported

    @virginmedia I already have, multiple times and it says nothing is wrong, no issues in my area! I want to book an engineer but the website keeps sending me in circles!

  • CS_Hants
    South Coast Commuter (@CS_Hants) reported

    @virginmedia May I remove it then? It’s ugly, VM never mentioned I would need it when you sold me the service and you didn’t get my permission to stick it on my house! Will happily send it back to you! Have no intention of ever using @virginmedia ever again!

    @VMSportIE Who ******** is Tim Clancy? Some randomer off the street? Is Virgin Media Sport run by Sinn Fein?

    Zeno (@SleepNaut) reported

    @virginmedia @gblondon1 You're all shite. Never use any of you ever again. Used to work for you lot as well. Absolute horrible place to work.
