-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, EnglandAfter 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Jamie Meecham🏳️🌈♥️ (@JamieMeecham) reported from Canvey Island, England@virginmedia care to explain why a member of staff felt that hanging up on a customer complaining about their broadband is acceptable? And now I’m stuck on hold AGAIN to solve my issue.
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.
-
Thomas Hapgood (@Tiger118118) reported from Basildon, England**** you @virginmedia I want my money back please 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
-
Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia No, we’re way past all that now, this has been going on for months/years. Now, I can’t even get to talk to anyone. I’ve requested you change my box. You haven’t. What is the head office address for service of legal documents please?
-
paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia since you upgraded me for free to intelligent wifi, ive lost all signal upstairs arghhh. How can i switch back?
-
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!
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@virginmedia Sort it out Virgin IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!!! Can’t even log on to get service updates 😡😡😡

paul fouracre (@moleyfozz) reported from Rochester, EnglandTwo contrasting phone calls to @virginmedia CS this morning. Really unhelpful 1st guy / rude. Rang directly back and the differner guy was absolutely amazing. Mathew was his name and he needs a praise. 1st guy really needs a lesson in customer service. Thank you Mathew.
-
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!!
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia so after weeks of unbelievably poor broadband and customer service there was an offer from you to resolve the situation with a web chat at 11am, with a link being provided here. No link. I’m lost for words

-
Julie McCarthy (@jooz282) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia It was a little more than short lasting pixelation! The channel kept dropping completely and during the main fight it felt like we were watching in slow motion.
-

GrumpyByName 🇮🇱 (@LessGrumpy) reported@virginmedia Wrong. Insurers got slaughtered for this sort of behaviour and rightly so. I’m still paying a third more than the price you would offer a new customer. Case number is C-2906261078.
-
Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported@virginmedia I had a really bad experience with 1 of your colleagues called Clariss she was very & unhelpful with issues im expierencing she kept going quite on me for no reason/ raising her voice/ trying to take advantage of me by forcing me to sign a new contract for £154pm
-
Cathal O'Donoghue (@donoghue_cathal) reported@adrianweckler Bbc sounds app is blocked but one can access all bbc stations via website and virgin media tv. Some premier league games are geo blocked on bbc 5 live but available live on world service
-
Matt Walters (@mattwalters70) reported@virginmedia Congratulations for officially being the worst company that I have ever dealt with. Poor customer service with staff who DO NOT listen, staff that oversell contracts to vulnerable people, a website that is frankly awful, complaints that are not taken seriously.
-
Dan Stevens (@DanStev14730264) reported@virginmedia What a joke I will not be waiting 10 days for your service to come back on, thanks for ruining the world cup for us all. I want compensation for this it's outrageous
-
MeddazzaDuranie (@duranie1000) reported@virginmedia had no service for a week. Engineer due today between 1-4. Now been told they won’t arrive until 7.45pm?? How is that acceptable?
-
lois lane (@loislaneonskis) reported@virginmedia why is your service so unreliable and no one can solve the problem it is a complete disgrace #virginmedia
-
Steven (@syrun6969420) reportedTired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8K_World_IPTV28 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies
-
Tweetledumb (@xueshang) reported@libertyglobal please ask @virginmedia why they sent me a new TB box without any remote to control it. (Finally they say will send one to reach me "in 5 business days" - keep paying for the service throughout this time!)
-
Keiran Griffiths (@Keiran_Mark) reported4 days and no reply to my DM @virginmedia 🤦. Poor performance from Customer Services
