    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCC Yes, since the day we signed with Virgin we’ve had our broadband drop out intermittently, I’ve been years trying to rectify it. When it works it’s brilliant, but we seem to go two weeks of good service and a month of intermittent! Call centre said they’ve been aware since June!

  • ladykittymckat
    LadyKitty McKatfacelady (@ladykittymckat) reported from Datchworth, England

    Virgin Customer Services are an utter disgrace! @virginmedia I called on Sunday to get our broadband running (it’s been up and down for over 6 months now!) only to have laughing, singing and screeching in the background that sounded very much like celebrating the demise of HMQEII

    My internet is at a stand still as soon as I upload ANYTHING 🙃 what ******** do I pay Virgin Media for then

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @mundaytom Not true. No response to complaint letter sent August and when we’ve rung “manager will call you in 3-5 days”. Been told that 3 times. Not one callback. Shambles.

    @SilentMugger @virginmedia Richard. don't bother. I've had various Internet providers and virgin is the worst. I've been without Internet for 23 hours and counting now and still can't get hold of anyone to help. I can't do my job and they appear to have issues all over the UK.

    BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    Absolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

  • Gosbo68
    Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

    @virginmedia Why are my sky sports channels not working but others are , getting error CS2004 . I’ve reset the box numerous times and checked the cables .. on my other box in another room all channels working fine ??

  • vision_e_media
    Vision Elite Media (@vision_e_media) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @virginmedia how can you customer service offer me a new contract £25 more than a new customer contract and then try blame the current economical situation?!?! Aren’t we all in the same economical situation new or existing customers?

  • paulstevenlewis
    Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM

  • lutonmagoo
    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia Yes I don’t know how many times it’s just a red light it’s not working.

  • MrsMummypennyUK

    Bobby Bucks (@b0bbybux) reported

    @SBarrettBar @tescomobile Interesting, our fibre was down recently (Virgin Media, avoid like the plague) and our Tesco Mobile data coverage was absolutely terrible. If it haven’t been for my neighbour giving me access to his network, I would have been screwed. And we were down for a bloody week 🤬💩

  • Munro78
    John Munro (@Munro78) reported

    @virginmedia Got an email saying my contract expires soon. Taking my payments from £73.50 to £137.50 - I can’t seem to find any new deals that would bring my payments down to what my original contract was. Unless I become a new member and you charge £49.99. This can’t be right?

  • PaddySw99745534
    Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported

    @virginmedia @LucyW1972 Why is no one dealing with customer service complaints. For one month now I have emailed, messaged called but still your equipment has not been sorted. Paddy Sweeney

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @alan_reddish @virginmedia Day 34 here. And no proper answers such as whether any engineers have actually been out to try to fix things. Just stock answers from the @virginmedia script.

  • declancarty
    Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported

    @IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????

  • Seren_7
    Seren 7 (@Seren_7) reported

    @virginmedia your online chat to us hasn’t worked for over 6 weeks. I have only been able to cancel today after being on a 1 hour call. Please advise when my account will be credited?

  • JanetsEscapades
    Escape to the Garden (@JanetsEscapades) reported

    @virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!

    Trying to upgrade my TV package with @virginmedia yet can’t get through to speak to someone. Gave up after being on hold for an hour. Appalling customer experience 🤯📺

  • helenxbedford
    Helen Bedford (@helenxbedford) reported

    @virginmedia Hello! I have an engineer visit booked but it’s not on the app. I’ve raised a complaint about that but my complaint isn’t on the app. I started a live chat and was asked to move it to WhatsApp’s, but didn’t receive any comms. How can I get any response from Virgin?

    Hey @virginmedia, my internet has been down since 6pm yesterday and you still haven't managed to fix it. FFS! SORT IT OUT!
