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!!
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia The issue is I also believe it's my equipment as well. The down time I have you don't seam to log it all. I dont want a router upgrade or anything like that I just want a working router. Everytime I call there is a fault in the area.
-
Christopher Fox (@ChrisFoxRacing) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia Already reported the broadband issues, and it's an issue where estimated fix times keep getting pushed back. With regards to mobile issues, this has been around the same length of time. The only way I've been able to get any connection at all is by switching to 3G
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia Or put me through to a manager or try to be remotely helpful in keeping me as a customer, im trying to sign an 18 month contract to give you money every month which I could just give to someone else I will not let this lie till i have my money back!
-
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.
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@Virgin @virginmedia I've had no Internet now for 14 days and my bill is due in 2 days. This is disgusting service, your call centre staff are useless, your engineers are useless, this is appalling for £52 a month. Sort the problem out now.
-
James (@jgrailpics) reported from Liverpool, EnglandWhen will I be able to go just one single day without @virginmedia failing, cannot wait until next year when the contract is over, increase the bills but reduce the service to next to nothing?
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Yes, as discussed many a time. Without fail occasion I phone there is a fault in my area and you will not send out a technician. This circle can not seam to be broken. This is why you have failed to get an engineer out to me for months and months.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
Colette Ellison (@colette2511) reported from Warrington, England@virginmedia No not going through it it’s too long and I don’t have time. Just wanted to everyone know that vm is a bad company and are robbing gets. Trading standards have been told and I’m 💯 % sure that there’s thousands of people doing the same
-
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.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia can someone help me please? I’m about to lose my ****. Never ever known anything like this company. Now telling me lies on WhatsApp. Saying i logged an issue weeks after engineers had already been out to find the fault. Refusing compensation after 4 mths no service.

Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England@virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.
-
Colette Ellison (@colette2511) reported from Warrington, England@richardbranson you really need to sort your @virginmedia company out. There nothing but robbing bastards, everything about the company is bad. 😡

F1blag (@f1blag) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin Media are up there for any worst customer service award! They took 3 weeks to restore our connection, promised us compensation (promises we were able to obtain a recording of), refused to pay that compensation and then fought us every step of the way. Dreadful.
-
Adam (@adamebond) reported@virginmedia The Channel 4 app isn’t working on 360. It freezes before it gets to the main menu. Is that an issue on your end or theirs?
-
william (@william27504693) reported@LeeHarris @virginmedia The fact you seem shocked by this means 1 of 2 things. 1) You're really dense & didn't research how truly terrible VM services are 2) You went for the cheap option & this is the result
-
Gauci Reports (@GauciReports) reported@LPXIOP This isn’t anything new tbh. The two copper networks are basically BT & Virgin Media. They’ve been migrating across to VOIP (Voice over ip) for a long time now. Unfortunately copper networks have become old and expensive to maintain and quality of service just deteriorates over time with fault calls, replacing cables and customer complaints etc.

Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reportedMore than 1,000 drivers were caught speeding across Ireland during National Slow Down Day, which coincided with the first full week of children returning to school. Among the highest speeds detected were 194km/h in a 100km/h zone in Letterkenny, 128km/h in an 80km/h zone in Naas, and 104km/h in a 50km/h zone in Galway. More on Virgin Media PLAY

Steven Adams (@StevenAdams2) reported@virginmedia hi can I say that Callum your engineer in Peterborough was a great help We had been without TV for a week spent hours on the phone trying to sort it out. He visited and within an hour it was all working again
-
Nim O'Hall (@nimohally) reported@virginmedia i’ve called your customer service twice, your mobile coverage is so bad that I’ve had it hang up on me twice and then your AI agent hung up on me, when I asked to get through to an actual person
-
Bobby Bucks (@b0bbybux) reported@biggle1908 @SBarrettBar @tescomobile Indian “customer service” centres in the case of Virgin Media, utter and complete shambles.
-
Master Roshi (@MasterRoshi1667) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia They really are a pack of useless *****. Typical VM. Takes your money and a shite service. We all accept it anyway because they are allowed to get away with it. It doesn’t pay to be loyal any more.

Escape to the Garden (@JanetsEscapades) reported@virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!
