    @virginmedia why are you not supporting key workers through these challenging times? Both my wife & I are key workers supporting the NHS & the food industry from home yet you fail to fix our Broadband issues for 3 wks. We can’t work. You just fob us off @piersmorgan @BorisJohnson

    @virginmedia 😱 a 100mb internet, TV and phone service that works.

    @virginmedia quite upset at the lack of any customer service I'm receiving. I've been a customer for over a decade, and you can't be bothered to contact me about my complaints! Will certainly be shopping around when my contract is up.

    @virginmedia Friday I booked an engineer as the WiFi on our hub keeps dropping. At the same time I upgraded my package. This includes tech help. Since Friday I've had no WiFi. I tried website chat but got dropped I've tried calling but was waiting too long. I'm getting bored!

    @virginmedia I pay £22 for sky sports - asked for it to be removed and the price has only gone down £13 . How is that right, fair or legal ?

    @virginmedia what are the customer service hours at the moment?

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia It's not faulty. It's not a wifi or broadband issue. You don't have enough backhaul capacity.

    @virginmedia why are not supporting key workers through these challenging times? Both my wife and I are key workers supporting the NHS & the food industry from home yet you fail to fix our Broadband issues for 3 weeks. We can’t work. @piersmorgan @BorisJohnson

    @virginmedia poor doesn’t come anywhere near the description needed for the service you provide for a long term customer who simply needs the OLD Superhub 2ac router replacing. I simply need a replacement sent quickly but must wait for an engineer on Tuesday 4th January.

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Your system sent me a satisfaction survey. Needed to complete it using mobile broadband because my virgin broadband doesn't actually work, but is apparently working enough to not qualify as being out of service.

  • andyjuk
    Andrew Jones (@andyjuk) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia have to say, even with no voice, Stan on your customer support team provides better service than some of the outsourced centres!

    @virginmedia Yes i have , i cant get through to anyone as i was advised to go on the ap, ive requested a new password still waiting! I wanted to leave because of these problems was talked into having adeal as long(as I've stressed) the wifi was sorted even now writing this im using my phone

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Every morning around 9:30 this week, our business broadband has stopped working. Lights look normal and we need to power cycle to get service back. What's going on? Postcode B90 3BD Do you have a back up option available as this affects card payments.

  • Markycot
    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Internet and TV down yet again and this after a debacle of a mis sold “extra” remote control this weekend, absolute disaster and terrible customer service!

    Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia for the second day out of the last 60 hours we have no Internet or TV in the B92 area!! You do know the rules are still to work from home if you can don’t you? Atrocious service and reliability!!

    @virginmedia I’m meant to be on a webcall about my TV that doesn’t work can anyone help me please?

  • notdodgy
    Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia You only pay out for a total loss of service. So it can be unusable but still limping along and you won't pay out. Personally I am hoping for another provider to get around to rolling out fibre in my area.

    Wow just had the worst customer service from @virginmedia can’t say I’ll be staying a loyal customer at this rate 😤

    Virgin Media. An astonishingly **** company, even by the standards of the UK telecoms industry. You are an absolutely ******* appalling company. You utter ******* disgrace.

  • BrownEyedGirlGB
    Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reported

    By 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/?

    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.

  • selhurstpaw1
    Paul Wright (@selhurstpaw1) reported

    @biggle1908 Avoid Virgin Media at all costs. Call centres are overseas. Back up if you have real issues is very slow. Regular price increases. When you renew your contract, it will be considerably higher.

  • iestyntdavies
    Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported

    @virginmedia - you customer service app is faulty, my TV Box is faulty how can I leave and end this poor service? Can @skytv or @EE help Me leave and get a better service?

    A man in his 20s has been arrested in connection with a shooting at a house in Co Galway during the August bank holiday weekend. A man was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries after gunshots were reported at a residence in Dunlo, Ballinasloe on Monday 3rd August at around 3.15am.  Gardaí are appealing to anyone who was in the Cúlán Eiscir Riada area between 2.30am and 4am, and who may have witnessed the incident or has camera footage, to come forward.

    @MTBoar @virginmedia That’s just rubbish, you can take it off you want it (however have a look at the issues people have had with cancelling their Virgin media subscriptions at the end before you do…)

Investigation Findings The regulatory investigation covered calls made between January 1, 2022, and September 11, 2024. Ofcom found that MILLIONS of customer service interactions were mishandled to prevent or delay cancellations. Specific tactics included: • Deliberately dropping or hanging up calls when customers asked to cancel. Putting callers on hold for no reason to frustrate them Excessive and unnecessary call transfers between departments. Using a two-tier retention system where only specific agents were allowed to process final cancellations. THIS LOT ARE CONFIRMED CRUEL SCAMMERS
