    @SamRobertsComms @virginmedia They are about as good as Three for customer services. Complete bags of smelly stuff.

    @virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

    Hi @virginmedia you have been utterly appalling. I have been trying to contact someone you about my complaint since 9/1/23 and you’ve fobbed me off. Terrible service.

    @virginmedia @ofcom, virgin media have Unauthorised taken £280 from a disabled customers bank account, me, when a payment of £159 was already paid to them. The bill should have been £120. Please help this is mentally distressing

  • kevinspicer72
    Kevin Spicer (@kevinspicer72) reported from Bedford, England

    Just been DM'd by @OpenreachHelp to ask if there is anything ELSE they can help me with TODAY. After NOT being any help at all on FRIDAY. I think it's a parody account. Also @SkyUK didn't call as promised. God I wish we had @virginmedia round here.

  • Ian_Loveshack
    Ismadder (@Ian_Loveshack) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia You are ignoring my problem and have not communicated with me. Have left me with £3 in my bank account it’s disgusting

  • Tech_Analyst_UK
    Rob Anderson #TipToeingOutOfHibernation (@Tech_Analyst_UK) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia I'm well aware of the service status page, but when it just gives a generic 'we know there's a problem and hope to get it fixed by 3pm' it's not very helpful. But seemingly the chatbot is even less so. Just lost connection for the 3rd time in 28 hours. #Anyone4Starlink?

  • _edan
    edan (@_edan) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia This is part of my point, you’re not helpful unless I responded you would not have told me about the text service you dumb ****.

    @pianobook1 @venustheory Took me 3-4 days to download all of the Decent Sampler packs on the slowest broadband possible from Virgin Media. Basic package. Only packs over 1GB failed network and restarted downloads. Meg are fine to download. Long haul nearly done with it.

    @virginmedia Hi I was wanting to cancel my order because I have changed my mind

    @virginmedia Do you have issues in MK42 area? My internet down, 2nd time in 3 days. Your service status says everything is good, I don't believe that for a minute.

  • russsanders2
    russ sanders (@russsanders2) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @virginmedia I have been told that my bill will rise by £20. What a joke. Sky here we come. Constant issues with virgin.

  • gsolomonphoto
    Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia My broadband fluctuates, but even when I’m getting above 200mbps WiFi , my Ethernet to the back of the house is 5-10mbps. I’ve done all your tests, but read lots of comments that this is due to the virgin hub. Can you find a solution so I can work from home please!

  • xBarnseyyy
    Simon (@xBarnseyyy) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    Virgin media down again 🙃

  • TMITV19

    @virginmedia Yes after a phone call. Now I'm actively looking into moving to @skytv after the poor service.

    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @VirginMedia We’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.

  • loldiplo
    Diplo (@loldiplo) reported

    @virginmedia Already got one booked in. I will be complaining however as you already are charging a substantial amount for a service you’re clearly incapable of providing.

  • MeAndTheCloudss

    So I guess I am not the only one who is having problems with @virginmedia today and the past couple of WEEKS.....💔 Honestly what is going on.....

  • kelly_twidale
    kelly (@kelly_twidale) reported

    @virginmedia So things like iplayer will no longer work after 2nd of June ? The problem with a 360 is it doesn’t have recording capabilities which is the main purpose of the v6 it’s ok upgrading the systems but a lot of people like my parents still record not stream

  • peter_mcclurg
    Peter mcclurg (@peter_mcclurg) reported

    @virginmedia your app says intermittent issues yet your call centre automated response says no issues Utter shambles of a company.

  • DevilHatman
    Hatz (@DevilHatman) reported

    @virginmedia what on earth is going on? My upload speed has been dogshit since Friday/Saturday. Today along it's dropped from about 25mb/s to less than 10mb/s. All your site says is "intermittent issues in the area"... which is so regular its utterly redundant now

  • PeteBradders
    Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported

    @virginmedia @DisneyPlusUK I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!

    @virginmedia Please answer the question - what is the reason for the problem?
