  @virginmedia The ideal resolution would have been for VM to return the document as originally promised. We have dealt with other companies in this regard and all have been prompt and professional. Even the DWP accepted a photocopy of the POA. Why VM couldn't is entirely beyond me.

  @virginmedia hi I’ve had an ongoing complaint since September, I’ve had an email to contact yourselves but the phone number is getting me nowhere , is there another way of contacting the complaints dept?

  Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported 13 minutes ago from Coventry, England

  I just spent about 20 minutes trying to find out why I'm getting email from @virginmedia about a SIM that I didn't order. As far as I can tell, the email is legit and Virgin is sending me, and a lot of other people, a replacement SIM "to improve service." Did I miss a memo?

  Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported 13 minutes ago from Coventry, England

  Me: Can you tell your supervisor that this email looks a lot like a phishing email? Support Person @virginmedia: I know, a lot of people have said that.

  @Ian66232919 @virginmedia @02 have been awful and the reception is non existent, especially any where near Villa Park. May as well not take my phone out.

  @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  The problem in my area B37 has been happening for over a week can’t watch any TV now @virginmedia over £100 a month!! Plus I’ve been waiting 2 years for an internet booster

  Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported 29 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  @KellyQuilt @virginmedia Virgin are hopeless for ease of contact. My daughter was with them and the service wasn’t at all good. This nonsense about calling them at a time to suit them is just ludicrous. They need to admit that they (& others) don’t staff adequately to suit their customers convenience. 🤬

  @IanMurphy111 @virginmedia Been with them since Telewest I don’t know why I stay false promises poor service

  @virginmedia As I am a sane human being, I’ve already looked online for help. Why answer like this - an obvious bot response. ??

• 
  Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported 46 minutes ago from Birmingham, England

  And just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.

  @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

  @virginmedia how am I supposed to book an engineer? There are issues with the quick start installation I have and need an engineer to set it up for me

  Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported 52 minutes ago from Solihull, England

  3 weeks now with limited TV yet still paying over £100 a month for svcs I’m not getting , I’m fobbed off on the phone that engineers are working on the issues , they’re clearly not can someone reimburse me @virginmedia

  Alex Barker (@amancalledalex) reported 52 minutes ago from Coventry, England

  @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK I had a problem with @virginmedia which eventually got sorted out, but not before going to their Executive Team. Customer care was nonexistent on the phones. Customer care is challenging but staff need to show much more empathy with the customer.

  @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

  Rachael Barker (@rachmadmank) reported 57 minutes ago from Solihull, England

  @virginmedia What is the point I would like to speak to a human being shocking service Definitely will not be staying with you 4 weeks if not more with no information regarding this matter Not consideration for others

  @O2 @virginmedia spent months trying to resolve incorrect default from Jan 2026.Multiple complaints have been incorrectly closed/ignored/been passed between departments. No deadlock letter closed my complaint without addressing my response. @LutzSchueler help! Comp unacceptable!

  Truthwillsetyoufree (@Truthwills26171) reported 14 minutes ago

  @RakeLark @handsomedave32 @VirginMediaNews What personal issues, my disgust at the race baiting grifters and the morons who support them? If that’s a personal issue I’ll happily hold it. Where did I say it wasn’t a concern or problem? I stated facts about Virgin Media, & that many agencies can get state funds!

  @virginmedia LION S1, E4 appears to be @NatGeo LION S1, E1. Can you please fix this.

  Burn Notice (@BurnNotice85) reported 17 minutes ago

  @VirginMediaNews Note to Virgin Media : stop platforming that religious zealot and fantasist - even at the opportunity cost re: a young journalist's tv screen time & professional exposure. He's on his way back to prison when another warrant comes down from the bench, in coming days and weeks.

  @Dacosta150 @Jojo_agboola Bro, I’m on Youfibre too, lovely network. I dropped virgin media broadband, not because they are bad but cos of Youfibre upload speed. Their 1000mbps download is same with their 1000 upload. I’m on You2000 and it’s been lovely. @Jojo_agboola should try it

  @virginmedia @iainsymac Really poor update! You need to get rid of it

• 
  Dom Fitches (@DomFitches) reported 28 minutes ago

  @virginmedia incredibly poor customer service. Recently purchased a wifi router which has broken and isn't working and the earliest you can send someone out is Wednesday? To then have a customer service agent try and sell me a "priority" booking service for Monday is appalling.
