-
David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, EnglandAnd the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?
-
Yorkshire Chuff (@YorkshireChuff) reported from Sheffield, EnglandReading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia
-
Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.
-
Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England@virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I need to speak to customer services about a mis sold installation
-
Callum 🏳️🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England@virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months
-
Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all
-
Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service

-
Dan Phillips (@DanCPhillips) reported@Ofcom Virgin media has been awful to deal with for as long as I can remember, it's ridiculous that it has taken this long.
-
Graham Hill (@grahamhill1) reported@MartinSLewis Virgin Media were terrible to deal with when I had a contract with them, terrible customer service up until I quit - only then did I get to talk to someone in charge. I still quit and signed up to @sky
-
Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported@virginmedia you are telling me you are extremely busy on 25 minutes hold. Guess what? I am Busy Too but you are not paying me several pounds a month! Employ more staff...am going to Ombdsman about shambolic service
-
Rob Wilson (@mrrjwilson) reported@ToddCoxeter @virginmedia I remember trying to cancel my broadband and the guy was just downright rude and obstructive. I vowed never to use them again and ripped out the ugly cable termination box from the front of my house.
-
Mitesh Patel (@mitzpatel85) reported@Channel4News Don’t think £28m justifies their actions.. if they were deliberately putting customers on hold and dropping call while they tried to cancel, the fine should be £1bn - absolutely pathetic from Virgin Media
-
Ian Archard (@archard_ia53975) reportedVirgin Media has been fined £28M for blocking, trapping customers in contracts they desperately wanted to leave. By dropping calls and using abusive tactics, they weaponised customer service to force retention. They are a spiteful company that got away with bullying for years.
-
Chris Oldershaw (@OldershawC66563) reported@premnsikka I. Found it impossible to cancel my account with Virginmedia by telephone - so sent a signed for, registered letter to contact address on their website and cancelled standing order - no further contact with Virgin media
-
Slimzee (@slimzeeUTD) reported@virginmedia 28million pound fine, what a crap service. Glad I moved to @bt_uk
-
Chris Mullan (@ericthecatmk2) reported@Ofcom I had this problem with Virgin Media 4 years ago and told them the reason I'd never go back to them was because how difficult they'd made it for me to leave them. Months of stress
-
Kerrin McIntosh 💙 (@kerbear_t) reported@virginmedia I’ve had no WiFi since yesterday and it tells me a fix likely by Monday. How do I run a business like this? Plus it costs me more using mobile data to try send emails. Poor service! And with the news this week one would think you’d be trying to keep customers happy!!
