-
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
-
Jacob Smith (@JacobWSmith10) reported from Camden, England@virginmedia @skytv can you please sort out the sky sports app. I cannot login in using my virgin media account. It will not load the password page. I don’t really see why it logs me out periodically in the first place.
-
Daymo Alexander (@Daymoalexander) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England@virginmedia I think @YodelOnline needs a good kick up the behind for being super late and not even letting the customer know! Not a great start so far #newcustomer
-
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.
-
Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia Not good enough! I would believe you if this was the first time it happened but I am not paying £53.75 a month for this awful service and unreliable service… not when there are plenty of providers offering more for less.
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia @dpjohnston10 Complaints procedure is non existent. If you phone, promised call back never happens, webform complaint doesn’t work and hasn’t since at least 28/09. Sent letter 3 wks ago - no response, despite website saying response within 48 hours. Ombudsman here we come.
-
Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia I’ve had REALLY bad connectivity all week. Please can you help? Have reset device to little avail. Ty

Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England@virginmedia I’ve given up for tonight. I’m struggling to deal with a company that has lied on record and taken money wrongfully out of my account. @MartinSLewis help!
-
ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, EnglandWhen you’re trying to upload and synch 20gb of wedding photos via a 4g hotspot because your @virginmedia broadband has been down for days on end with useless customer service and you have a deadline. It’s never ending! 😩 #virginmedia #custometservicefail #fail

BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported from Harrow Weald, EnglandAbsolutely 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
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia Is this how you treat your ‘priority customers?’ During a cost of living crisis, we have chosen to stay with you, yet you can’t pull your finger out to look after your customers. I work from home but can’t fully use the service I’m paying for due to your incompetence.
-
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 …
-
ᒍᗩᑎE (@gemmak500) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia I don’t doubt it will be fixed eventually but there have been significant issues here for months & I need more info than this. The message on your link hasn’t been updated since PRIOR to being told it was fixed. When reported this morning it was treated with no history.
-
Sid M (@smahes4) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia The reason given to us that you don’t want to put extra 10mtr cable to service 3 properties. That’s a shame on you and a classic lie that you say on your advert regarding coverage @richardbranson @Ofcom
-
Mustakim. (@Mustxkim) reported from Brentford, England@virginmedia Wi-Fi is SO BAD. I’ve check service status online it says it’s fine but I hasn’t been working for 2 hours now. Wtf is you lot doing. It’s been disturbing for weeks now too.
-
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
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia We’ve spoken to eight people to try and resolve our internet issues.We’ve ordered new boosters because the new service isn’t compatible with the old ones.We’re a ‘priority customer’ - the new boosters still haven’t arrived…So frustrating. Your service is appalling.
-
Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England@virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM

Anand Gupta (@anandcheam) reported@virginmedia can you spend some money on customer care so they can answer calls / chats and LISTEN when they do ? You guys sent me 2016 router box when the agreement was to send the latest and now no one is licking up the phone, is that joke? @Ofcom British regulators need to penalise where it starts hurting the service company. Like they do in the USA, 100s of millions of pounds or billions. Not peanuts.
-
Frank Dieter T (@FrankDieterT) reported@virginmedia - complaint, your team refuse to honour an offer emailed on 25 Aug 26 - new contract offer # 100472086139 - area 24. Not impressed.
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported@virginmedia If you check the DMs I’ve sent you 42 messages in the last 16 days. You have replied to lots of them. But you have never been able to tell me why the fix is taking so long, whether/when any engineering staff have actually turned up to look at our cabling, or when it will be fixed
-
Alison Baines (@AlisonBaines4) reported@virginmedia We reported an issue with our virgin internet being down on 20/8. Came home from a weeks holiday today still not sorted Open reach have been doing work outside our house and all your team have said they can send someone 31/8.This is not acceptableHow do we escalate?
-
Krystle (@vdaybabygirl85) reported@virginmedia - I had serious connection issues. Complaints team got in touch and thought it was resolved. But it's not. The issues are STILL ongoing and as for the last 8 weeks or so I'm struggling with intermittent service. I want the fixed. I'm sick and tired of it now
-
Torexeon (@Torexeon) reported@wrighty1707 @virginmedia It was me who suggested this when I worked for them. I designed it to get you on the phone to retentions, because a huge percentage of customers would just sit out of contract or complain online about astronomical pricing. Granted not every customer is able to get a decent deal.
-
Mr Daryl T Catpiss (@DarylCatpiss) reportedHi @virginmedia im trying to login to sky sports on my phone, its not sending me a confirmation email to login, ive done it 6 times over the last hour and nothing has been received, can you explain please?
-
KopiteinPoland (@KopiteinPoland) reportedI never had issue with @o2 until they merged with virgin media. Now I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. You try and use the website, pages don’t load. Information isn’t available. How do you keep on top of your account. #awfulservice #neveragain
