    @virginmedia How long is due course? I’ve already spent hours on this issue with no resolution. I started this chat conversation on Wednesday 1st February. Wouldn’t you agree the customer service from Virgin is woeful?

  • marianmartinart
    Marian Martin (@marianmartinart) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

  • sam_batty
    Sam Batty (@sam_batty) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Just spend over an hour on live chat/phone. Your service means we’ll be nearly two weeks without internet!

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia No, memory was at zero when I turned the box on & went to recordings yesterday afternoon. Even the planned recordings were missing. It was about 50% used, but I never tried a Factory Reset yesterday, just turned off & on again, hoping that would fix it.

  • Khaled_Miah1
    Khaled Miah (@Khaled_Miah1) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?

  • kevinri00714924
    kevin richardson (@kevinri00714924) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia No the chat ended and I couldn’t get back into it obviously finished work. I got nothing he was trying. He found the account in question but couldn’t get in with security. And again I’ll add I never set up account so I don’t know password. I’m left hanging again

  • jrseloto
    Francisco Soler (Jr) (@jrseloto) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia 11 May - which of course i will cancel today as I’ve had enough of this. too much stress and no TV or internet for 30 days

  • HunteLucy
    Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia - workman cut through my cable, no Wi-Fi, TV or phone and earliest engineer appointment is Monday??! Completely unacceptable! I work from home and have teens! 😭Help!!!

  • donnorcean
    Connor Dean (@donnorcean) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Still cutting in and out as it has been for many weeks… no local area issues listed anywhere. Have been trying to get ahold of someone for weeks now but just keeps looping in the app, really frustrating

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Well I guess as it went down Wednesday afternoon and if all goes well back up tomorrow we will automatically qualify.

  • SandraS80775853
    Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.

  • DianaAlexS
    DianaS (@DianaAlexS) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia ** PLEASE NOTE ** We don't have human agents supporting troubleshooting / technical issues over our Messaging Platform. If you wish to speak to someone please contact one of the Team on 150 from your Virgin Media Landline or 0345 454 1111 Well that was "helfpul"

  • swami102
    Swami (@swami102) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia letting know that my installation date is moved just before a day of the original date isn't very professional. When you guys fix yourself???

  • MisterLeeDaniel
    Mr Lee Daniel (@MisterLeeDaniel) reported from London, England

    Please could @virginmedia on 0330 303 5309 stop calling me, then immediately hanging up. That’s rude. I’ve now blocked your number.

  • PieFaceMark
    mark (@PieFaceMark) reported from Poplar, England

    Absolute nightmare with @virginmedia arranging new package. Since agreeing package deal yesterday I've received FOUR different emails telling me I'm gonna be paying four different amounts, all higher than what was agreed. Absolutely terrible customer service and real headache

  • BBLn15
    Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it

  • islingtonlloyd
    Lloyd Child (@islingtonlloyd) reported from Islington, England

    Nope, not just me. Hurry up & fix it @virginmedia , I want to watch the game in UHD

  • WilsonJevelyn
    Dr Jan Evelyn-Wilson (@WilsonJevelyn) reported from London, England

    @VirginMedia wi-fi just cut out AGAIN! Annoying when one is in the middle of something. WHY!

  • BancoDePapa
    グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England

    @TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines

  • KikassP
    kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, England

    I've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.

    @Ofcom I am told there is more strife coming down the line for @virginmedia they have a 360 tv box which customers hate becauseof its many problems and many want out .

  • archard_ia53975
    Ian Archard (@archard_ia53975) reported

    Virgin Media has been fined £28M for blocking, trapping customers in contracts they desperately wanted to leave. By dropping calls and using abusive tactics, they weaponised customer service to force retention. They are a spiteful company that got away with bullying for years.

  • aquanauts2019
    Aquanaut 2025 (@aquanauts2019) reported

    @virginmedia You are going down hill rapidly. Top management need replacing with someone who can sort your company out. I have put off spending an hour plus on the phone to sort out TV pixelation. Also fed up with being fobbed off with secondhand kit. I am out ASAP

  • mitchlog
    mitchelle holland (@mitchlog) reported

    @BladeoftheS Never watched tv for 7 months filled out online form to buy license to watch world cup football . They have backdated yo Dec 25 . Now going in circles like virgin media to get refund . Imagine how they will take money with digital id and digital banking . 🪬🏦

    Elaine Walsh (@mabaker_moz) reported

    @virginmedia I rang your service number and there is an issue in the area

  • salemsdaughters
    Kingofsalemsdaughter (@salemsdaughters) reported

    BBCs report on Virgin Media is 100% accurate. When I informed them that i had moved house to an area they did not cover they pushed me to stay until my contract ended. I had also had several technical difficulties to which they delayed any actions to fix the tech issues; what was the issue? i was unable to change my email. I call their customer service dep and neither of them were able to help me. This happened on several occasions Where i had to wait WEEKS for very easy to solve problems. @virginmedia

  • elainerust
    Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported

    @virginmedia despite your £28 million fine for preventing the switching process, I find you are doing this to me. So much for resolving the issues and reviewing your processes. You’ve cancelled my request TWICE. This has to stop. @Ofcom

  • GothGuyGamer
    Gothguy (@GothGuyGamer) reported

    @botbusta999 @virginmedia @EE when you join EE for their "internet", you'll be complaining you're being scammed, fact is aside from Virgin, noone can come close to the speeds they provide. Dont get me wrong, im not praising Virgin, their customer service is AIDS

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @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...

  • soup_gravy
    Bri Bri (@soup_gravy) reported

    I need a new broadband provider, so fed up of dealing with daily outages with @virginmedia Never known a company to be this terrible. Paying for Gig1 Volt yet I can barely even get 50mbps download speed. Engineer visit booked, wait in and no one turns up or even communicates
