TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia I’m currently on hold. My mum is in her 70’s and waited in for an engineer only for them to send a text 10mins before to say you were coming in the 26th. The original appointment was the 21st and her TV service has been down for well over a week.

John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

Paul Greenwood (@PaulGr1969) reported@virginmedia whoever got this text message saying dont unplug for 72 hours virgin media are telling everyone that they are fixing an issue you reported,I have reported anything I think these lot are up to something we all need to report virgin media

Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reportedHi @virginmedia This latest update appears to directly contradict the update you sent me earlier today. At 12:57, I was told that an engineer **was already on site and working to fix the problem**, with an estimated repair time of **18:00 today, 19/08/2026**. At 15:24, I am now being told that you have identified the problem and that an engineer **is on their way**, with the estimated repair time moved to **14:10 on 21/08/2026**. This is the original date that was stated 2 weeks ago. Could you please provide an accurate explanation of what is actually happening with fault **F012421201**? In particular: * Was an engineer on site earlier today, as stated? * If so, why is an engineer now apparently only “on their way”? * What has happened to cause the estimated repair time to move from this evening to Friday afternoon? * Is 21/08/2026 at 14:10 now a reliable estimate, or is this simply an automated placeholder? I appreciate that faults can take longer than expected to repair. What is frustrating is receiving contradictory information that makes it impossible to understand the actual status of the fault. Please provide a clear and factual update rather than another automated status message.

Vik Chauhan (@chauhanvik) reported@virginmedia I am trying to cancel an engineer appointment but it isn’t working. Can you cancel it for me please

The other M&M (@UnkUser99) reported@paullewismoney You've clearly never tried to cancel Sky or Virgin Media
-
doozerlyn (@doozerlyn) reported@virginmedia Why are you fixing everyone's red button issue on 28th August?? Mine says its going to be done at 1008 hours that day??? All engineers off till then or something else???
-
Big Bobby Campbell (@BigBobbyCampbe1) reported@DavidPaintdw @virginmedia Just browsing different packages as mine has run out with my provider. Won’t be touching these now - seems a lot and poor contract agreements.

Andy Anderson 🇬🇧 Defund the BBC! ♋️ (@shelf_life64) reported@virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Two weeks to fix this is wholly unacceptable…. I’m starting to suspect you’re having another spat with Sky or your engineers are all on holiday!! As you are well aware casting is not available from the Sky Sports app… A bill credit to all affected would be welcome for this!
