Kate J (@katej1984) reported from Sandiacre, England@virginmedia any chance you could hire call centre staff that don’t hang up the phone after 3 seconds in an attempt to bring their AHT down?
-
☞Ⓖⓐⓡⓨ Ⓟⓐⓡⓚⓔⓡ☜ (@WiteWulf) reported from Shepshed, England@virginmedia It’s obviously a localised equipment failure caused by the power fluctuation this afternoon, not “signal to noise” problems as your telephone operative said. Get an engineer out here and fix it now, please, @virginmedia
-
Leanne Biggs (@leannebiggs14) reported from Burton upon Trent, EnglandAbsolutely disgusted with @virginmedia mobile customer services. Ring up and after 10 seconds get told to GET TO THE POINT I was actually ringing to change my mobile number as I’ve just taken a new contract out with you. I will be better off staying where I am 😡 #virginmedia

Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England@virginmedia Yes it must have shorted itself overnight @virginmedia can I please cancel the engineer?
-
Guy Peacock (@gupe1979) reported from Tamworth District, England@KiaNFFC A few of my colleagues at work has been struggling all week with Virgin Media so sounds like there is a few issues still
-
DJ Knight 🇬🇧 (@iRacing74) reported from Sandiacre, EnglandWith public service cuts, why do we year upon year pay more Council Tax for less service? Virgin Media put their prices, but do not reduce my service - If they did I'd cancel the service. We are legally obliged to pay more for less - go figure 🤷

Tim Moore (@timmo1963) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England@BBCWatchdog Is it me or is @virginmedia really poor with customer service!!
-
Tim Moore (@timmo1963) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England@BBCWatchdog can you help me with @virginmedia please. 4 faulty boxes in 18 months, overcharged for the package I have, they never answer the phone 🤬🤯
-
Ron Yau (@ryau3) reported from Repton, England@virginmedia I am having the issue now where I cannot update my apps or use twitter through the Wi-fi. But I am streaming tv. @frustrated. Why do I suffer and stop to reboot the router and paying for unreliable service!!
-
National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England@virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

Matt' (@Matt_Francis98) reported from Fazeley, EnglandVirgin media are the worst internet providers there is for sure
-
BA (@BenAubury5) reported from Tamworth District, EnglandWhat a joke @virginmedia are. On the phone for 1hr 29mins just to cancel a phone contract. I ask them for an email address to make a complaint and they say they don't have one 🤣🤣 I will never be using this company again
-
gary 'uk' bond (@bond_gary) reported from Hilton, England@RockandRollSue @virginmedia I got rid my contract with virgin due to a bad reception, it took three months... each time I contacted them to cancel( when I could get through) they said it was all sorted, but they hadn’t done a thing, in the end I agreed to going pay as you go and just never used it again.
-
Shaun Reeves (@shaunreeves) reported from Fradley and Streethay, England@virginmedia It appears to have been resolved. However it is rather alarming to hear members of our village had been told by your customer service team “the earliest fix would be 6th Jan 2021”.
-
Tim Moore (@timmo1963) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, EnglandWell @virginmedia my TiVo box is stuck in starting up mode (2 hours) and needs a technician, not available until Tuesday. Piss poor service and your telephone manner leaves a lot to be desired. Waiting for you to get in touch 🤬
-
Itza Secret (@XStatikPulse) reported from Castle Donington, England@virginmedia Patience! I'm absolutely furious! How dare you assume I'm happy to wait! I hardly have a choice in the matter. I work nights I only get time in the morning for relaxing in front of the TV and I probably won't be able to till Monday cos ur service is shit!
-
Tim Moore (@timmo1963) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, EnglandHi @virginmedia just tried to take up the £99 ultimate oomph bundle only to be quoted £140!! Can’t log in when I try to purchase online help needed please 🤔
-
satyan panchal (@satyanimi) reported from Coalville, England@virginmedia It's so difficult speaking to customer care as they do not listen to your needs. I will need to cancel or downngrade to a price I can afford. Can't be hard can it. I am out of my 11 month contract and go anywhere if I don't get a reasonable offer to stay
-
Katy Oliver (@k28ykaty) reported from Sandiacre, England@virginmedia Except if your me.. I’ve continually been supplied with a poor excuse for broadband.. I was promised a booster for my signal yet weeks later I’ve still not received it.. your not keeping up your side of this contract.. will not renew my contract when this is over!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Chris Newton (@chrisnewts) reported@virginmedia why is it so difficult to reduce your package. Numerous phone calls and messages and none of your employees can manage to take off items off my package. Please respond before I cancel completely. Appalling customer service.
-
Jeremy Leeor (@JXXSL) reported@gwfvrowell @virginmedia The word "service" is a stretch.
-
Si (@Si_67) reported@virginmedia Our broadband has recently started to fail on a daily basis. It has been fairly reliable until a couple of weeks ago. Yes, it comes back after a while, but this really isn't good enough in 2026, especially bearing in mind how much it costs. What's happening?
-
Matthew Smith (@Matthew79421198) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia Worst customer service in the world aside from @British_Airways
-
Sammi Todd (@hollypolls) reported@virginmedia how many times do we have to suffer loss of internet before you actually do something proactive & sort it? Fed up of paying for such a poor service, promised reimbursements which never happen & being fobbed off by your team every time to power off and reset the hub
-
steve homer_net (@stevehomer_net) reported@virginmedia @LDA74 In other words: our customer service doesn't exist, click a link and sort it out yourself!
-
Samuel (@samhardiman92) reportedI have never in my adult life had to deal with a more inept bunch of incompetent people than those who work at virgin media, I wager I would get more sense from an extinct species than I would from their "customer service" department
-
Alicia Folge (@ASoria34455) reported@virginmedia @virginmedia how can you leave customers without access to internet for days in 2026? I just came back from South America & when we had a problem it was fixed within the hour, you really can’t do better?
-
Bill Kilvington 💙 FCODP, FRCA (@BillKilvington) reported@virginmedia What on earth is going on. Intermittent broadband, all WiFi pods disabled and the site says I don't actually have any. Customer support says you're replacing cables in my area, but no planned work showing

Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reportedThe mother of a 9-year-old seriously injured in an e-scooter incident says the consequences of these crashes can be life-changing.
