@virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

@virginmedia I’m trying to watch @stokecity , I pay you good/ hard earned money for your service and this is what you give #shocking

dean condliffe 🏴 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
@virginmedia John, please check my file. I’ve called several times, to be told somebody will contact you regarding your complaint. I ask to speak to a manger I’m told, none available. Appreciate this is not your fault buts it’s an utter **** show. I’ll let @Ofcom take the lead from here.
-
Chris Laws (@ChrisLaws1) reported from Cheadle, England
@virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments
-
LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England
@virginmedia That was the first thing I tried but nothing happened. It’s only when I power off at the wall, wait a minute then power on that it changes. Right now it’s working fine but this has been a recurring problem this week.
-
Andrew Dickerson (@andy_dickerson) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
@virginmedia Yes I did and Tuesdays fault was shown and yesterday's wasn't so how about you provide the service I pay for. If this continues I will begin getting quotes from other service providers as I am fed up of dealing with bots and spammers claiming to be from you.

dean condliffe 🏴 (@DeanCondliffe) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
@virginmedia you know when a customer makes a complaint (twice) and you say that the customer will receive a phone call within 24-48hrs. Is this true or do you just make it up as you go along? Thanks.
-
LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England
@virginmedia Everything is running fine then my devices can’t connect. It takes me switching the router off at the wall and on again for the connection to reestablish itself. First world problems but it’s a pain when I’m working upstairs and the router is downstairs. And it should just work!
-
Sharon Whitchurch 🇺🇦 (@S_Whitchurch) reported from Burntwood, England
First World problems. Internet dropping. Or should I say, @virginmedia broadband. Its awful, drops completely three / four times a week. Sometimes several times a day for a few seconds. Can't wait until I can give notice!
-
Matthew Hughes (@MattHugheslives) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
So @virginmedia is increasing their prices by £8.50 pm. Wouldn't mind so much if they had decent service, eifi that doesn't cut out when i go upstairs, Sky Atlantic etc. Would go with @SkyUK but their wifi doesn't like bloody copper pipes.
-
Sharon Whitchurch 🇺🇦 (@S_Whitchurch) reported from Burntwood, England
@virginmedia I assume as you know there is a problem in my area and we have no TV services or wi-fi that we will automatically be compensated? Many of us are still working from home and this is a massive problem for us!!! #badcustomerservice
-
Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
Get priority tickets for Peter Kay virgin tell me as I’m a customer, yet I can’t even get on the O2 priority app. Sort it out @virginmedia @O2
-
Wayne Thomas (@martialartnerd) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
@virginmedia absolutely shocking treatment when trying to sort an upgrade out, asked to speak to the manager was told I can't sniggered at and the phone was then put down... we have three contracts Internet and tv with you safe to say we won't be renewing
-
Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
@TerryBossons @virginmedia Since Covid no body answers phones any more crazy, shocking though that is @TerryBossons really bad costumer service and lack of information I had this with Sky very similar 2 very poor service providers with little thought of what’s going on in todays climate
-
Andrew Dickerson (@andy_dickerson) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
Anyone know what on earth is going on with @virginmedia ATM last 2 days connections been up and down like a god knows what ?
-
Matt Bennett (@MattBennett93) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England
@virginmedia Well do you not think if I'm only getting a service for 80% of the time, I should only be paying 80% of the bill?
-
Ian Fraser (@IXL) reported from Keele, England
Dear @virginmedia. I’d like to cancel my account. I’ve called 4 times this afternoon, put on hold for ages and been disconnected each time. Why are you making it so hard?
-
Tim Ray (@timothyray) reported from Tean, England
@Cassetteboy @virginmedia Imagine being that crap a company that you don't realise the damage you do to @virginmedia's reputation when you piss off someone with 77k Twitter followers.

@FredWhite_ By charging £240 to leave your contract even though #VirginMedia have not provided the service paid for.
-
John Mc (@JohnMc_Lpool) reported
@coralgrainger @virginmedia Same issue with @virginmedia. They have my bank details, why can't they just transfer?
-
Reuben Puddy (@ReubenPuddy) reported
@virginmedia I need to cancel my contract but the only way seems to be a phone call (I'm abroad and it will cost £££) or a physical letter (this is the year 2021AD no BC). Can you please just cancel my contract without putting me through this farce please?
-
Mark Hassell (@mark_hassell) reported
@virginmedia Does your Virgin Media Connect App even work? I haven’t been able to sign in for months. Tried to click on link on the app to sign in & nothing happens. I have deleted & reinstalled the app many times & still the same. It doesn’t work.
-
Sy (@Sy09856152) reported
@virginmedia Hi. Could someone get in touch please. I'm having issues logging in to my virgin media account despite the fact that I know for 100% certain that the account name and password are correct. Thanks
-
zach close (@Zachclose2000) reported
@hogmaster2020 @virginmedia @VirginVoyages I know they don't care about people they don't even help the vulnerable people
-
Craig Turner (@Aspire2hope) reported
@virginmedia why can't your call centre operators listen to the customer. When I agree with one operator for a technician visit and then can't book one in the next call with the ac count holder
-
stevemason (@EssarrMason) reported from Aldershot, England
@virginmedia Inadequate reply, to my mind, you contracted to supply a service, you cannot deliver that service, uou terminated the contract....perhaps YOU shoukd pay the cancellation fee!
-
Shaun Wade (@Waddiee) reported
@virginmedia It’s the set top box. It just says “searching…” and I can hear a small buzz sound that happenes once every few seconds. I’ve checked all the ports and it’s still not working properly. Thx
-
Lady Dave (@LadyDaveO) reported
@virginmedia Apparently the compensation is only applied with a total loss of service whereas mine is intermittent, turning on and off every few seconds. So while unusable for me, it provides #VirginMedia a great loop hole
