    @virginmedia in the past few months in the L23 area your service has been nothing short of shocking…. As someone working from home & needing WiFi to work I’ve recently decided to leave, unfortunately my replacement service can’t be installed in May though. What went wrong?

    @virginmedia Don’t know but a lot of people aren’t very happy with the service, drops out more than it’s in service, maybe a UPD issue on virgins system

    @virginmedia So all the phone calls we made over this means nothing, surely it will be on record either way and someone should see theres a problem, sounds like we been pasted between another pillar and post.

    Malcolm Roberts (@Drmalrob062) reported from Scunthorpe, England

    @Banksie23Robert Yep, that's was the only response I got, through Twitter! The rest of virgin media comms are down, or waiting queue for 45min plus only to be told "we are aware and our engineers are working on it".

  • paulscunny
    Paul wilson (@paulscunny) reported from Scunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia still having wifi problems, months later still being fobbed off, now a problem in my area but your own website says it ok. How much longer will it take to get sorted.

  • Darren_Barton19
    Darren Barton (@Darren_Barton19) reported from Crosby, England

    @virginmedia I only have broadband. Can't get a signal on mobile. I am just fed up of the constant price rises £3.50 each year, we have been with you since it was NTL never had another internet provider, feel that loyal customers are taken for a ride.

    @virginmedia let's hope you are as good as your word to reconnect by 10am No service last evening either Not good

    @virginmedia I am NOT setting up a passcode. I ought to be able to SPEAK HUMAN TO A HUMAN. I gave spent an hour amd finally spoke to someone but am still complaining to Ofcom 4 a variety of reasons about appalling customer service

  • StiffNips2
    Simone-Lee Deal (@StiffNips2) reported

    @JimMooreJourno CEO is too busy counting his £1 mil package to give a ****, and Burnham shows no interest in dealing with it. Amazing that it's a merry-go-round of useless bastards buggering up companies; he used to be at British Gas, equal only to Virgin Media for dissatisfied customers.

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I have just DM’d you again because I have just had another three texts from you saying that the issue will now not be fixed until 18 August. Despite the fact that an hour earlier you told me it would be fixed by 4 pm today. This will take us today 23 of zero Internet

    @virginmedia You are aware of how absolutely dogshit your Hub 5 is for anything other than brand new tech devices aren't you? I'd like compensation for the piss poor performance please and thank you

    THREAD 8 — THE DEVICES Connectivity is only useful if people have something to connect. This takes us to Solidaritech in Bradford. The organisation was established in 2017 to refurbish unwanted technology and provide it to refugees and asylum seekers. It works with laptops, desktops, tablets and smartphones. The cumulative figure is now more than 5,000 devices since 2017. But that isn’t simply historical. Solidaritech is still operating. In 2025, Bechtle partnered with Solidaritech to repurpose 857 devices, including phones, laptops, PCs and tablets, which were donated to asylum seekers and refugees. Then there is Migrant Help. Through Community Calling, smartphones and free data have been provided specifically for asylum seekers and survivors of trafficking and modern slavery. Virgin Media O2 reported that Migrant Help had received 1,250 devices and free data, with a further 5,000 devices planned. Screen Share UK also received funding to provide devices, connectivity and repair training to refugees and asylum seekers. Its trainees then repaired and redistributed devices to other refugees. The device itself has therefore become part of an ongoing system. Technology is collected. It is refurbished. It is connected. It is distributed. And sometimes the recipient is taught how to repair the next device.

    @virginmedia when I contacted u earlier in the year I was told the upgrade to the 360 box doesn't mean a new contract, but yet after months of you harassing me I've upgraded box and low and behold you've sent me a new contract until 2028 , not happy how do I cancel???
