Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England@virginmedia your DNS TTL (a web server change time to live) is probably the worst on earth. My new website works everywhere in the world other than on #virginmedia broadband. You absolutely suck, big time. Crock of shite.
-
Lee Garrett (@mrgarrett100) reported from Worthing, England@virginmedia you guys are truly the worst... move the service to you with 6 weeks notice and you don't have it ready - suggesting we wait 16 days until you're ready with no service as we've cut the other provider?????
-
Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England@virginmedia With all due respect, saying sorry doesn’t sort anything. I’d much rather you offered some help If I treated a ‘Customer’ in my workplace the same way Virgin Media have treated my family, I’d almost certainly lose my job. The customer service continues to be appalling
-

Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, EnglandHi @virginmedia any news on why our broadband and TV haven't worked since 7pm yesterday in Burgess Hill? No comms and status update just says you are aware with an expected fix moving on in time...
-
Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England@virginmedia Called and no issues. It has to be equipment, right? There’s an option to ‘test hub’ on that link but it just goes to an invalid page. I’ve been patient for a few weeks now, but I’m finding it hard to remain so! Trying to work like this is impossible

-
Warren Ryan Philips (@Luciddestiny) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England@brooktop68 @virginmedia @bridgetmck We’ve turned the Superhub to Modem Mode and picked up separate WiFi routers. Resolved most of our issues immediately and we rarely get drop outs. Invest in a decent router or Mesh, you won’t regret it.
-
Scott Hortop (@scotthortop) reported from Brighton and Hove, England@virginmedia Yes, everything seems to be working now. However, I have just received a call from Virgin Media, or someone purporting to be you, telling me that I had poor broadband performance , and I needed to sit in front of my laptop to fix it. I soon hung up, getting the wrong vibes.

Jonathan 🏳️🌈🇪🇺 & 🏳️⚧️ ally (he/him) (@logically_fuzzy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England@maecoloma8 @virginmedia It's awful, I'm in a basement flat so only get 4g if I sit by the window!
-
Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England@virginmedia Yes I am, we’ve had the pre pull of the cables completed this morning, and are ready for the installation. We’ve not received any box, or anything through the post yet My Complaint Ref: ic-191222-237

David (@DKarunda) reported from Brighton and Hove, England@southwarker @SkyHelpTeam I think this is a major issue. Experiencing same issues with Virgin Media at the moment
-
Patrick Woodward (@pwvoiceovers) reported from Worthing, England@virginmedia You asked me to contact you to fix an issue but there are no options to do so. Phone number, when I found it, just led to a bot. Poor service.
-
Anne Webb (@AnneWebb777) reported from Brighton and Hove, England@virginmedia @fawizium Impossible to contact anyone through phone, absolutely dreadful service as per usual. How do you sleep at night? £105.75 this month 🤬🤬
-
Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England@virginmedia Did you read the message, I don't want to call or use whats app ad uve spent far too long doing this already. So I'll have to complain in writing then it seems. Shocking service yet again you do not read whta a customer is saying.

Shen 😈🗡️ (@ShenArriorVT) reported******* VIRGIN MEDIA FIX YOUR **** RAAAAAH
-
Richard D G Cox (rcox.bsky.social) (@RDG_C) reportedHello @virginmedia might you please have your legal department confirm their address for service of documents such as, for example, formal “letters before action”? It would of course have been preferable if the question had not had to be asked, but … we are where we are.

Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reportedHi @virginmedia This latest update appears to directly contradict the update you sent me earlier today. At 12:57, I was told that an engineer **was already on site and working to fix the problem**, with an estimated repair time of **18:00 today, 19/08/2026**. At 15:24, I am now being told that you have identified the problem and that an engineer **is on their way**, with the estimated repair time moved to **14:10 on 21/08/2026**. This is the original date that was stated 2 weeks ago. Could you please provide an accurate explanation of what is actually happening with fault **F012421201**? In particular: * Was an engineer on site earlier today, as stated? * If so, why is an engineer now apparently only “on their way”? * What has happened to cause the estimated repair time to move from this evening to Friday afternoon? * Is 21/08/2026 at 14:10 now a reliable estimate, or is this simply an automated placeholder? I appreciate that faults can take longer than expected to repair. What is frustrating is receiving contradictory information that makes it impossible to understand the actual status of the fault. Please provide a clear and factual update rather than another automated status message.

Tó's Right Foot (@UncommonNeutral) reported@longlaneroyal @virginmedia I don't understand why anyone uses Virgin Media. I've literally never met a happy customer of theirs. Plusnet forever and always.
