Nicky P. Smalley (@Nicky_P_Smalley) reported@virginmedia I haven’t tried ringing, as I’m more likely to get through to Elvis on a ouija board then you. For a month our top package internet keeps failing, you say you fix it & a week later it dies. Pull your finger out & sort compo for every customer in S63 7NR area.
-
Jonesy (@Beechside) reported@Dom_EFC @virginmedia Wait til you try & cancel it They make it as difficult as possible Ended up sending a recorded delivery letter to Head Office (when I eventually got the address)
-
Dogred (@PaulBen29353194) reported@biggle1908 Virgin media will be very helpful when you want to join but you’ll regret it when there’s a problem or you want to leave, their customer service is probably one of the worst in the industry imo.
-
FoundNemo (@NemoH666266) reportedI'm so unbelievably ****** off that @virginmedia have **** the bed with streaming Sky Sports + and not even taking responsibility for it. Trying to say there isn't an issue. We pay for a service and spend all day looking forward to watching the game and nope...doesn't work

Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reportedBy December 2025 @virginmedia ongoing service monitoring determined I needed a free hub to stabilise connection. Lost track of how often internet has gone down for few minutes or so then come back. However, in last month it has been out for hours 3 times. 2/?
-
Keiran Griffiths (@Keiran_Mark) reported@vdaybabygirl85 @rayquannnnnnn @virginmedia Keeps dropping out? Which VM Hub do you have? I've just got upgraded free from the hub 3 to hub 5 and so far haven't had any drop outs. Give the customer services a call and ask for an engineer (free) and when they come, it's ifs the hub 3, they'll change it for free.
