-
Mel B (@crimimel) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England@virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling

≡xtr≡m≡pcuk 🔜 #i69 🤟 (@ExtremePCUK) reported from Hillingdon, England@virginmedia ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! I’ve worked with major computer and ISP’s over my time but by far Virgin Media is the worst! I pay £111 a month and not one person can help. Intermittent internet for a month but they say just wait another week it may be back on!
-
ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia Yes there were, we received a text at 2am to say it was (finally) fixed but it isn’t & we are now expected to go through the entire reporting/testing the router process again. No engineer for days.This is NOT a router issue, it’s affecting many homes. #bangsheadonwall

Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Hatfield, EnglandVirgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

James Brown (@JammieBun) reported from Hillingdon, EnglandHi @virginmedia. I’ve tried phoning you with a complaint, but the calls get shunted into weblink hell. I’ve submitted two complaints through your site which have mysteriously disappeared from my account. And on Twitter the links you send for an online chat only ever lead …

Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, EnglandPossibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details
-
Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia Yep, not good enough. What’s the issue? Why does it keep happening and what are you doing about it? And how are you compensating customers?
-
Jonny Paul (@StrummerJonny) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia is there any point, why not just give up? #virginbroadband down again, x4/2 days and at least once a month you are guaranteed #broadband #outage
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia Why should we call up again for the ninth time? We’re a ‘priority customer.’ You should be calling us and making amends.I’m a consumer tech journalist with 25 years’ experience. Your customer service is the worst I’ve ever encountered. You simply don’t care about your customers.

Jason Hier (@jasonhier) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia Is service in London W13 working?
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia Of course I have. My email is correct on online account. I get email bills correctly. But my complaint file has an extra character to email address and so I’ve never received acknowledgment of my complaint.
-
Rebecca Dundon (@Rebeccadundon1) reported from St Albans, EnglandHey @virginmedia I've been on hold for 20 minutes and I'm losing the will to live. Need help with WiFi password
-
Oliver Fatyol (@IstvanOFatyol) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia Since w/c 22Aug my wife and I continuously keep checking the service status which gets updated and deadline pushed back. Nobody with virgin has broadband or TV for over 3 weeks now without explanation or a decent update
-
Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, EnglandRequested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.
-
John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England@virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/
-
The waving mechanical roadgoat™ (@silvergoatish) reported from Camden, England@virginmedia Duly noted. I'm not likely to be a customer for much longer though, with your general level of service and pricing.
-
maureen robert (@morish1) reported from Hillingdon, England@virginmedia This is false advertising. My broadband goes off more than it’s on and then it is so slow. I have lost count on the times I have called the help line. I have rebooted routinely, it works for a while then off again. I have had enough now as enough is enough!!!
-
Paul Simmonds (@paulusthegrey) reported from Borehamwood, England@virginmedia I think I may have an idea what’s happened to your service in #borehamwood It looks like a kerbside box has been totalled by a drunk driver.
-
Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported from Harrow Weald, England@virginmedia Yes, I’ve done all these. Very frustrating as I only had a new super hub and cabling to house installed 2 weeks ago. Never had such intermittent service in 20 years of using virgin.

Cakes6G | Art on Objkt (@Cakes6G) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Saw this coming a long while ago which is why I bailed when my contract finished, awful customer service and awful products, let this be a lesson to all of you on X!
-
Jennifer Arcuri (@Jenniferarcuri) reported@Benleo @ailsybabe @virginmedia Please make an example and put them in their place. Hopefully out of buisness. Horrible company, Virginmedia.
-
Manavmeet Singh (@Manavvv31) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Nothing unites Britain quite like a shared telecom customer service horror story. The combination of endless transfers contradictory information and problems somehow getting worse after every call genuinely feels like a national experience at this point 😭 @Benleo
-
Poppyfields18 (@Novemberpoppy82) reported@virginmedia why on earth is my internet so slow. Only been with you 2 months and it is terrible for the past 3 days. My son is trying to revise for his GCSEs for 2 exams tomorrow and this is not good. Nothing will load. Get this sorted asap
-
v (@PaulWes15396579) reported@deadstar37 @virginmedia you will regret it , cancel while you can, utterly useless
-
Shaun (@shauny67) reported@virginmedia @RobRollin2 If you have the 1gb they are free plus most WiFi issues are due to devices & not the service. Plus you can if want put in modem mode & use your own equipment
-
Dee Jarvis 🟪⬜️🟩🏴🇬🇧 (@DeeJarv34798927) reported@Benleo @virginmedia My experience - engineer comes in to fix box. Tells me to put 'dog away!' I say 'no, she won't come into the lounge or bother you' 'Tea, coffee?' I say 'No' 'Water, fruit juice?' I add 'Fruit, fruit' he says I return with apple & banana He grabs both & puts them in his bag 🤨😖
-
Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported@virginmedia hello Virgin Media had a dodgy phone call from +442045148789 saying it's Virgin/O2 trying to end contracts early for upgrading & wanted details while the lady spoke poor English & kept saying eh 24/7.
-
Geoff Jones (@geoffjones7) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I was a service engineer for many years for Virgin (formally Telewest). You most certainly do not have to renew a contract to get a cable fixed. Also the Indian call centre has been a long-standing issue for their customers. Very poor service
-
Sir Moanalot (@Sir_Moanalot_) reported@Benleo @virginmedia They are awful. I’ve been stuck with an exorbitantly priced rolling contract because I plan to move house soon and have no idea if wherever I move to will have VM cable in the street. Zero reward for customer loyalty. When I do finally move, @virginmedia can get in the bin.
