    @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.

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

    @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

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

    @SilentMugger @virginmedia It's been over 24 hours now and I've now been told it will be 10am tomorrow. I'm in North London, not in the wilderness. Its shocking that there's no Internet in the city. Maybe there service is getting worse.

  • gemmak500
    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.

    Drew Salisbury (@DrewSalisbury5) reported from Barnet, England

    [1] @virginmedia I have not had access to WiFi for a couple of days now. I have checked the cables, rebooted the Hub and run the final diagnostic tests several times. Still nothing. On the one hand, your system tells me that there is a wider broadband issue in the area and […]

    Ben Shaw (@bendog90) reported from Shenley, England

    @virginmedia I’m still stuck. No one answering the phone - my internet is down and I can’t get any service .. really need one of your service team to call me please on 07850 647 490

  • 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!!!

    @virginmedia I’ve had REALLY bad connectivity all week. Please can you help? Have reset device to little avail. Ty

    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.

  • TinaReading
    TinaReadingEditor (@TinaReading) reported from Amersham, England

    @virginmedia No Internet for 48 hrs and can't work, will you be crediting customers for lack of service?

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

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

    @virginmedia I’m afraid not. I did ask to speak to a supervisor/manager and they said they would submit this request. My question is: is there actually a fault or is this an ongoing issue? It seems to be the latter, tbh.

    @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

    Possibly 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

    Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Hatfield, England

    Virgin 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

    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Also raised it in web complaint form which didn’t work. Web complaint form hasn’t worked for 2 months. Then sent letter and still no response. 2/

  • seanhannam
    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.

  • JammieBun
    James Brown (@JammieBun) reported from Hillingdon, England

    Hi @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 …

    Steve Furniss (@SteveFurni7742) reported

    @virginmedia Having spent 90 minutes awaiting a call at 8am without any response this morning & viewing your very poor chat bot service, i have to say your customer service is now the poorest ever from an existing customer of over 30 years. I will try again on sunday to resolve my issue

  • Samina_masood3
    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @virginmedia This is the number that we have been calling since 02/5/26 which is a call centre in Pune India. And they are telling me that even with complete loss of service a technician can’t fix it until 12/05/26 we regret moving to Virgin Media!

    billy winter (@billywi56359173) reported

    @virginmedia too busy money grabbing working through bots instead of getting real people to support your customers with actual help, fed up of trying to explain to a robot what’s going on

  • mec337

    @virginmedia without doubt the worse customer service in the history of customer service.
