-
Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England@virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband
-
Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬
-
Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub
-
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
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, EnglandAnyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls
-
lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No and tbh no apology for my internet not working since the day after install Friday and now I've been threatened in in contract ! I have 14 days to cancel can you confirm please . Im not paying for a fault after 5 days plus it's not worked from install .
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back

koko 🌻 (@Koko__Johnson) reported from Sheffield, EnglandVirgin Media have the worst customer service in the world
-
Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England@StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.
-
Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.
-
Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported from Sheffield, EnglandCoincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.
-
Leanne Rebecca (@leannerains) reported from Sheffield, England@SkyHelpTeam went to renew our sky package and they quote us £99 for new package deal bye bye sky il cancel our sky package and go somewhere else and maybe try @virginmedia #ripoff
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update
-
lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .
-
Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia the cheek or virgin media staff complain about virgin router dropping out constantly call raise a complaint and tell them router is disconnected from network and request a hub 4 as been told this is what’s needed I get told I have to upgrade to 1 gig for new router
-
Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England@virginmedia please please can someone help me. I left virgin in October and have had several calls to say I didn't ask to. Now they are threatening me with debt recovery. Is this correct
-
Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported from Sheffield, EnglandMoved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating
-
Amy 🦉 (@Amy_1867) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia whenever I’m on zoom upstairs and away from my route my wifi always seems to drop out. It’s always says my internet connection is unstable. I’ve restarted router etc is there anything else I can do to boost it
-
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

Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported@virginmedia when are you going to fix our broadband. We have been without broadband for 6 days now. My partner offers online psychotherapy support for people with blood cancers and has had to cancel appointments because of this.
-
Matt Round (@matt_77r) reported@virginmedia Hi. My broadband has been down since last night in the L18 area. I've just checked the service status and it's saying 3 days to fix. Is that correct?
-
Urm (@erm2urm) reported@virginmedia I'm trying to login to my account but I'm being asked to register thru Virgin/02? Why is it doing this?
-
BigF (@Bigg_F_) reported@virginmedia Yes. Eventually got through via chat to a real person. They advised a factory reset of hub which is a complete pain to set back up and it made no difference. Engineer arranged to come today. I also raised a formal complaint. Mysteriously it’s working two hours later.
-
John James (@_kimosabe_) reported@virginmedia absolutely disgusting Customer Service I’ve been told for 3weeks HBO max is free with TNTspots only to just been told it’s not now unbelievable service I have it in writing and verbally been told it’s free
-
Carm5012 (@Carm5012) reported@Ofcom Can you do something about @virginmedia and their constant nuisance calls? Four so far today - it never ends
-
Graham Booth (@laserblue) reported@virginmedia Hi, it seems my set top box is on the blink and my chances of watching my beloved Man City maybe at risk. I could switch to Nowtv, but that will cost me £15 for a 24hr pass. I've used the tips as featured in the trouble shooting guide. No luck. Can you help? Thanks
-
Road Painter (@RoadPainter) reportedIt looks like I'm soon to be an ex-customer of @virginmedia My monthly bill has gone up by more than 10% this month, unjustifiable profiteering!
-
Robert Taylor (@rabtaylor1981) reported@virginmedia Just fyi, 2 days of back and forth on DMs now, waiting hours for replies, and still nowhere! 2 more days paying for a service that doesn't work and I can't and don't use!

CymroGlyn 🏳️🌈🏴🏉🍾♿️ (@cymroglyn) reported@virginmedia You should be keeping an eye out for this sort of criminal activity, creates profiles for most large UK companies so they can reply to any complaints and get the customer to download software so they can compensation…and rob them. Report them to X
