Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England@BritishGas I’m truly astonished. I didn’t think there could be anyone worse than @virginmedia for customer service but you’ve managed it. I’m in awe.
-
Scott Wickham (@Scott_Wic) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia My request to support was about the hub5 and some Wi-Fi extenders/boosters which I’m entitled to, they said that it was sorted and would be in the post and now only the hub5 has turned up!!! Does this mean I have to contact support again…….
-
Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia sort your customer service out they have just cut meoff again!!! Whilst on hold to make a complaint #ripoff
-
Marc Gallagher (@marcgallagher82) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia your sales team are the biggest bunch of #fraudsters I’ve ever dealt with! Phone us to offer a better package and you have taken our package and completely messed it all up! #CustomerService at it’s worst! If this is how you treat a loyal customer of 14year, I’m off!
-
Robert Bailey (@Bunglebob66) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia get enough money from me and all the others get enough, from the rest of the paying public. So stop being greedy, stop paying the Premier clubs so much and wages will have to come down. There, sorted!
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing
-
Geoff Watkins (@DronePilotGeoff) reported from Gillingham, England@fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well
-
Thomas Hapgood (@Tiger118118) reported from Basildon, England**** you @virginmedia I want my money back please 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
-
Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England@westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!
-
ron palmer (@moebius1967) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@bushontheradio Trying to get through to Virgin media to cancel the contract. Bloody chatbot isn't worth a ****
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service
-
Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia problems with the boxing again tonight - paid for @anthonyfjoshua fight and keep getting pixelated picture and channel going off air entirely - is it being sorted?
-
LiisaJane'x (@LiisaJane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.
-
Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Rochester, England@BBCWatchdog can you help @virginmedia make it impossible to complain or resolve any issues the ultimate poor customer service!!
-

HeyYouItsCorrie (They/Them) (@HeyYouItsCorrie) reported from Rochester, England@suziqvk @virginmedia BT, without a doubt. Virgim media is absolutely useless, bad internet, bad coverage, bad service
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12. That’s just today and this has gone on for weeks. Pretty sure you would’ve lost me as a very longstanding customer by the time 28 days is up.
-
matt (@briggsym) reported from Wickford, England@virginmedia how can I complain about internet reliability from your service. It has been appalling and inconsistent and seriously considering moving to another provider.
-
Michael Buckley (@MikeBuckley2) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia I am trying to access live chat as I have blackspots in house and would like WiFi boosters from Virgin. I have 200 Mbps but am getting only 20mbps in bedroom. Cannot find live chat on sites other than loads of help pages. Really frustrating

stephen lane (@ppglane) reported@waterjetcut @MichelleBeckett @virginmedia Virgin just got a £28 million fine because they knowingly didn't cancel contracts .
-
Samet (@Samet_UK) reported@AmyHeppi @virginmedia Same here. It’s been over 24 hours and my Wi-Fi is still down. I’ve called support twice—they only say there’s an area outage with no updates. The status page isn't helpful too. Really disappointed with Virgin Media. Time to look at other providers.
-
Samet (@Samet_UK) reported@virginmedia Still no any update or result. So I am so regret to be your customer.
-
JR (@Dadyougeek) reported@appleblossomBe @virginmedia @LutzSchuler Nope they was more than happy to cancel it today!
-
kel (@_k3l__) reportedVirgin media has been down at some point in the day for the last 3 days now🤬
-
Helen Black (@helsblack) reported@virginmedia It's back on been an outage this morning
-
Si Smith (@sjslfcforever) reported@virginmedia how hard is it to speak to someone who actually understands the problem I’m having??
-
Michael Crick (@MichaelLCrick) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK As I have said here before, Virgin Media treat customers with total contempt. The worst type of British capitalism. Branson must be so ashamed.
-
Elle 🌸🗽 (@hellosunshine52) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine how hard all this is. For your info with regard to your issue - virgin media have just been fined £28m for preventing people ending their contracts. Perhaps talks to the culture internally that you are describing
-
Leon Fear (@LeonFear) reportedIf I paid @virginmedia pro-rata, on the basis they provided a reliable service, my bill would be around £1.50 a month!
