    Dear @virginmedia & @VirginMediaCC A day to forget, wasn’t it? All day problems with my internet connections. Thousands of people affected. In my case, I needed the internet to work and it seems like that the issue was resolved this afternoon. How can I claim compensation?

    BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    Absolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

  • morish1
    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!!!

  • Gosbo68
    Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi still down.

    @MikeCoxCowes @virginmedia @HP What hope is there for the smart home when even a wireless printer needs reconfiguring after a simple wi-fi network change?

  • gemmak500
    ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s showing issues but we are still being treated like this is a new issue with no history. 😩

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there's an outage in my area (area code 21)?

    @Charlie_A_Gee @virginmedia They don’t give a damn, they’re virtually a monopoly, Ditch them and go to sky.

    RICHARD GRIFFITHS (@Griffo2018) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Now I am told they will send me a new hub as they do think I have problems T the house . That’s why VM booked a engineer it was not me who did it . Time will tell if the goal post moves again today

  • Johnboy82903002
    John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Good morning, This is the 3rd day with no broadband. You have conflicting messages as to whether there is an issue or not, and whether it has been fixed or not. I have been unable to speak to anyone or log a call out. Can someone please help

  • StephenCavinder
    Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported from Bricket Wood, England

    @virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking

  • Rebeccadundon1
    Rebecca Dundon (@Rebeccadundon1) reported from St Albans, England

    Hey @virginmedia I've been on hold for 20 minutes and I'm losing the will to live. Need help with WiFi password

  • StrummerJonny
    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

  • SMillbery
    Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia any chance of a stable service?!?

  • yessibelloperez
    Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Last time, our wifi was down for over a week. I spoke to an agent on the phone who was utterly useless. You never offer any solutions. I’m starting to think that the only way for you to take any action is if I cancel my DD.

  • brobbo55
    robbo (@brobbo55) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia sort out the wifi in AL4. Been down two days now joke of a provider

  • U2Gorilla

    Requested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.

  • epwhamilton
    Edward Hamilton (@epwhamilton) reported

    @virginmedia I'm aware that that's what it shows, however one of your agents has told me that there is a network issue and no information is being communicated nor is it being acknowledged on the website. To say it is my equipment is disingenuous

  • bryn14181
    Bryn (@bryn14181) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Like people have said you’ll be back to Sky within 2 years. Me and the Mrs had Virgin we were paying something like £87 a month for the full package come renewal price they wanted £213 a month for the same package claiming the £87 was a new customer only deal

  • AvaniEbony666
    Rebecca Réva (@AvaniEbony666) reported

    @MartinSLewis is it really fair that with the below inadequate service and bills being messed about and not being able to se said WiFi properly should I really be paying the full @virginmedia bill even tho the problem hasn't been resolved??

  • freeITstafford
    Free I.T. Stafford (@freeITstafford) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia All well and good until you get actual problems and need customer service (and you will).

  • rebeccaann1989
    rebecca ann jarvis (@rebeccaann1989) reported

    @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

  • READY2MIX
    Concerned #CANZUK 🇬🇧🇳🇿🇨🇦🇦🇺 (@READY2MIX) reported

    I've tried 36 times to log in to my account. The process involves downloading an email, pressing a button to return to the screen—what f****** screen?—then trying the alternative options, sending a text, getting to another page, linking something up, and doing this repeatedly. Still only want the router model name. Incompetent and useless. Can't just have an email and a password, gotta get sent a text that doesn't f****** work, get sent an email that doesn't f****** work, do it 38 times or do it for the rest of my f****** life. #Virginmedia made it easier for who the f***? All these corporations and banks always improving either the taste of processed food or their login process and, it's never f****** easy, so who are they improving it for? It's like they are teaching us to take instructions have to get on the phone press this press that press that press that teaching us to obey constantly. Use the app it's easier f*** is it.! #news

    @O2 It's fine, I was using the incorrect email address for Disney+, so I've sorted it. But I am never signing up for that joke company Virgin Media as long as I live.

  • Borochubster
    Al Murray Jnr🔴 (@Borochubster) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin media have a call back team. You actually have to cancel your contract, then they call you back within 2 weeks and that's when you get the best deals.

    @virginmedia outage on both TV and then broadband around Leeds?

  • AniaSowinski
    Ania Sowinski (@AniaSowinski) reported

    @virginmedia @beckykeating97 No we can’t as you are refusing to acknowledge it’s an area issue. It all went down at the exact time an engineer was working on one house in the street. It’s now been 24hours with absolutely NO service
