  @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 16 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 18 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

  @virginmedia what’s the best deal you can do me please 🙏🏼 sky are having my life with the rubbish connection, internet never working and shocking customer services, a manager doesn’t even stick to their word of calling me back. Week 3 of my issues not getting resolved!

  @virginmedia how are we supposed to get in touch with you over a box problem when you say the email address that you send the bill to isn't recognised 🤔

• 
  Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported 28 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  @virginmedia £55 a month JUST for Internet from April? Been a customer for over 20 years when it was £20 a month. Loyalty just gets you taken advantage of I guess.

  Barry (@Barry80901949) reported 32 minutes ago from Bradford, England

  @virginmedia free gifts(£150.00) gift voucher& Apple Watch) now she’s been given 5 accounts with a massive bill & you’re asking for a payment to release the gifts. MASSIVE SCAM. D.D cancelled. Racheal Barrass as customer services director I fully expect you to sort this mess out

  @vmbusiness just wanted to ask how much you value customer service? I’ve just had a phone call from your operative with shocking customer service.

• 
  Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported 42 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

• 
  Gav Leaf (@Gav_Leaf) reported 49 minutes ago from Castleford, England

  Thanks @virginmedia Glad to know your levels of service are still going to be this utterly dire to justify pumping my price up an extra £15 a month!

• 
  Bam Bam (@SaffsAI) reported 53 minutes ago from Bradford, England

  Why companies like @virginmedia use WhatsApp support I do not know. The system makes you wait an hour, if you don't respond in 10 minutes, it kicks you off the chat just to make you wait again

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 55 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia all services in the WF1 area of Wakefield have been down all day and looking like 6pm to be fixed. Will you be applying any credit to people's accounts?? Good will gesture and all that! #wakefield

  @Ofcom @virginmedia love this!!! They’ve been at this for years!! Hanging up on customers! I hope it affects their staff now. Because ultimately it’s the company that gets fined for this, not the rude, stuck up staff they’ve got working for the company

• 
  Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported 3 minutes ago

  @entrustTMF @virginmedia Good reminder for me to chase them up about my poor broadband WiFi in the house and to renew contract or move.

• 
  Jonathan Kirk (@doubledutch13) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia having been treated disgracefully just after my wife died I’m delight you are 28 000 000 lighter in the pocket. You were truly awful and I’ll never ever use you again. Ever. #youdeserveit #laughingnow

  Groupthink Blogs (@GroupthinkBlogs) reported 9 minutes ago

  @simonlevans @virginmedia They even admitted they did so. I remember trying to cancel my mum's contract 10 years ago, took me 2 hours. Most people would have given up.

• 
  entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported 10 minutes ago

  @aidan_codtello @virginmedia Good luck! When the service works at @virginmedia it's great-but when there's a problem you're pretty much on your own with a fanciful bunch of stories until you can finally get an engineer to pitch up. I always think that how they handle a problem is the measure of a company...

• 
  Minute Market (@Minutemarketio) reported 11 minutes ago

  Virgin Media Gets Fined 🫰 Virgin Media was hit with a £28 million, or roughly $37 million, fine by UK regulator Ofcom for repeatedly making it harder for customers to cancel contracts between 2022 and 2024. That is not just a consumer-rights story. It is a warning for telecom and subscription businesses that “retention tricks” can become regulatory liabilities. In a market obsessed with recurring revenue, cancellation friction is now a legal risk.

  Waqar (@Waqar83971366) reported 11 minutes ago

  @Ofcom Regardless of the fines they've still not improved with broadband, customer service and their prices are always high yet can't provide good service and quality of signals and equipment.. they need a full upgrade in equipment, signal quality and customer service @virginmedia

• 
  Ian McNee (@IanSMcNee) reported 14 minutes ago

  I ditched @VirginMedia years ago over terrible customer service - this is the same as water companies: a semi-monopoly owned by US finance: asset stripping profiteers. Switched to local independent Andrews & Arnold - @AAISP. Top service, real people on the phone who fix problems.
