  @virginmedia My stepson and his partner having real problems getting someone to move the account to new address. Seems like a simple self installation M&T but nobody will help.

  @virginmedia I will. 2nd week in and these kind of issues is worrying considering my partner needs a connection to work from home. How long do I have to switch providers is it 30 days?

  @virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔

  @virginmedia you have caused me nothing but hassle for months now. Your customer service team are completely useless.

  @nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm

  @virginmedia shocking service from you today, I booked an engineer visit for my mum supposed to come today between 12-4 nobody came she’s since called and been told it was a phone call not a visit but still nobody had called. She’s now got to wait till Tuesday for a visit 😠

• 
  Scott Henderson (@Hendy14) reported 22 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia Is there a problem with your phone system? My Mum has been trying to call for 24 hours on numerous occasions to change package but gets cut off every single time. Your mentions suggest this is happening to lots of others too. Can somebody arrange a callback please?

  @Defencebrief @wonkytodger @virginmedia Their download speeds are good but their upload speeds are pretty poor.

  Spent most of the day being spoken to like crap by @virginmedia customer service staff who ask why I want to cancel 3 days post install date and no install you work it out!!!!! Losing the will to live here

  Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported 29 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

  Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported 32 minutes ago from Stockport, England

  @virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

  Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported 36 minutes ago from Salford, England

  @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers

  @jimmyoates @virginmedia Same James. Same area and it’s not been working for an hour. It says on their website no issues in the area but not had any service.

• 
  Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported 49 minutes ago from Sale, England

  @virginmedia You’re not understanding. I do contact when the issue is happening, your advisor then fixes it, but it then happens again within 24 hours. I need a ‘once and for all’ fix. Not this whack a mole approach you’ve had so far.

  alex. (@blokealex) reported 52 minutes ago from Manchester, England

  @virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.

  Jamie Hill (@_Hill_J) reported 52 minutes ago from Wilmslow, England

  @Defencebrief @virginmedia I, too, am a previous virgin media customer. They put the price up ridiculously. When I asked to renew the contract at the price advertised online, they refused. So I left. At which point I was bombarded with offers. Not a good way of treating customer or doing business.

  @Benleo Just look at @Trustpilot reviews. Almost impossible to cancel an @virginmedia contract. Sent all evidence to Ombudsman, got written apology and £150.

  Stew G no23 (@StewartGar49182) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia They aren't recently issues they are current issues is BB being throttled back? All i get from virgin is there's no problems in the network so why is it so slow?

• 
  D (@idczn) reported 19 minutes ago

  The only contract I ever signed with Virgin Media was in 2018, and it continues to this day. I have never changed or upgraded it; I only occasionally tried to report home network connection issues. It turns out that in November 2024, a two-year contract was accepted, which I only found out about in 2025 when I wanted to cancel their services. I couldn't leave them XD However, checking who did this on my behalf and when (because it certainly wasn't me) was impossible, as I had no way to log into my Virgin account Now I cansee- the accepted contract has different number? There is no any signature of mine- and information that was sent to e-mail: back then controlled by hacker

  HRCastle (@hrcastle) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Since 10am I have been trying to speak to someone to see if there is a problem in my area, or whether I need an engineer out. I have had phone calls from the complaints department, but still, no answer. Why won’t you confirm this?

  Helkhiana (@helkhiana) reported 27 minutes ago

  @saltyy_savage I had Virgin media for years and only issues and expensive contracts. I am on Plusnet right now £43/46 for 900mb with 0 problems and uk customer services. They do £3 increase yearly and I am curious to see my first contract end what I'll get. Bet still better than virgin

  Nicola Savory (@nicsavo83) reported 34 minutes ago

  @virginmedia how can I arrange a refund for lack of service? BB & TV down for nearly 24hrs, your call centre staff have been horrendous to deal with and I am sat inside on the best day of the year so far, awaiting an engineer - with zero confidence that they’ll actually arrive!

  @virginmedia It is default to audio descriptive so I change it to Original Dolby Audio both via the context (…) and pressing down and along to audio & subtitles but it’s not changing anything even though it appears to select what I want
