Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, EnglandHaving the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!
-
Colette Ellison (@colette2511) reported from Warrington, England@virginmedia No not going through it it’s too long and I don’t have time.

Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia So I’ve been told false information to make me sign up there and then! Terrible customer service there!
-
Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia according to your representative my wifi is working perfectly and I don’t have any issues! That’s a bit odd considering I no service what so ever!
-
Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England@Sarahlw_95 @virginmedia Sarah I wouldn’t bother with WhatsApp, I’ve been speaking to various people for over a month on there trying to sort my incorrect bill. They just tell you it’s resolved when it isn’t. Scandalous service.
-
DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Litherland, England@virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.
-
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@virginmedia There's no point raising a complaint is there, as you won't comprnsate? Other reputable oroviders offer a back-up 4 or 5g device to kick in if their main broadband goes down, to keep the service running. Not VM though - it's just all really poor customer service innit?
-
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.

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? 😱
-
Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia The guy was the most arrogant person I've ever spoke to in CS, retentions is meant to be the end of the line, if it was my service and not my wife's 93 year old nan i'd have cancelled the contract. I asked to speak to a manager and was told "managers don't speak to customers"....
-
Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

Andy (@andyosb) reported@Ofcom @virginmedia did exactly the same thing to me back in 2019! It was - and still is - the worst customer service experience of my life (and I'm now 65). I was just so relieved to escape them eventually. They're utter scum. Do yourself a favour & don't go anywhere near this company
-
Steve Williams Fan Club (@TMSH71) reported@BBCBreaking If you think Virgin Media are bad, Virgin Mobile were beyond useless, so much so they 'joined forces' with O2. Good riddance to bad rubbish

Emmanuel – Big Tech & AI Investor (@EmmanuelInvest) reported🚨 UK Regulator Fines Virgin Media £28 Million ($37.4M) Ofcom has slapped Virgin Media with a £28 million fine for systematically preventing customers from cancelling contracts over nearly three years (Jan 2022 – mid-Sept 2024). Key Findings: - Deliberate call-dropping tactics - Excessive and unnecessary call transfers - Repeatedly putting customers on hold for no reason Ofcom described the failings as systemic and repeated. Background: Virgin Media is a joint venture between Spain’s Telefónica and Liberty Global. This is the second major fine for Virgin Media recently (previously fined £23.8M in December for issues with telecare customers during landline migration). Impact: Another hit to Virgin Media’s reputation in the UK broadband/mobile market.

Darktrace Cyber Security (@DarktraceCm56u) reported@Keiran_Mark @virginmedia Do you have any evidence 🧾or proof regarding your scammed issue??
-
GanAinm (@ainm_gan5505) reported@MartinSLewis Virgin Media is not actually Virgin, it’s a ****** American company called Liberty with a license to use the Virgin Media branding. The real Virgin company should take the license off them for driving the name through the ****.

Turkish_187 (@turkish_187) reported@Ofcom The worst experience I have ever had was signing up for @virginmedia and then trying to extricate myself from them. Took months and months and hours and hours of my time that I won’t get back. So glad to see this news. The irony was they never even connected me. Shambles.

No Class🇪🇺 🏴🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ (@Veganforever67) reported@BBCNews Another time phoned up virgin media said my internet was running slow. They said no problems. We can give you a discount for the time it's been running slow. They didn't contact me in any way, shape or form and signed me up to a New year's contract.
