-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.
-
Kevin Saunderson* (@kevsauno) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia hello, issues with TV and WiFi in Liverpool L12 area this morning. No issues showing on the app. Tried all the usual stuff but still no connection.
-
Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia ..i don't know what manager in any way of life won't speak to a customer! I called back and spoke to another member of the team, who has logged it as a complaint, a manager is calling me today and he is looking what he can do for a 93 year old. Being forced to pay £105 a month...

Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.
-
Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England@virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)
-
Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Too many service drops. Engineer has been to properly to fix but this persists.

Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England@les_murray71 @virginmedia Still saying 12.05 on the app Lesley .... have they put that new estimated fix time out elsewhere? 😱
-
Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.
-
John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England@CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, EnglandDay 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄
-
Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England@Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia ...when all she has is TV on an old box and a phone line. She's house bound and this is all she has. The 1st feller attitude was disgusting and said like it or lump it. Clearly doesn't enjoy his job at Virgin Media and customer service is not his game! Awaiting a manger today, ty

Corax (@Refan80) reported@virginmedia Care to give a reason reason for the outage today? 28/05/2026. Est fix of 5:05 pm and no concrete reason why is not acceptable as that wipes a whole day of work for those who wfm. Transparency and actual details shared with your customers would be nice.
