Haider Al-Rekabi 🏴☠️ (@HaiderAlRekabi) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia There is no problem in my area. My problem is specific to my account.
-
Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England@virginmedia @elise_john85 So you're whacking up Elsie's cost because you have more customers (who are presumably also paying you) using the service, and you want to use Elsie extra £4.50 / month so you can invest in services that attract even more customers?!? Get in the bin!
-
A Rintsie (@arintsie) reported from Marlow Bottom, England@virginmedia You keep cutting me off when I call ! / just email the complaint number to a member of your UK team and ask them to call me, really not that hard
-
Alex Turton (@woodyturts) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia hey, it’s been slow going on broadband in GU14 since Tuesday.
-
Rob McEwan (@robmcewan1966) reported from Finchampstead, England@virginmedia Truly astounding. I have spent hours trying to get virgin to actually carry out promises made and we’re still not there. I’ll swear the customer services reps I speak to are under so much pressure to move on to the next call they make it up as they go.
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia Thanks. Done that. Multiple times. And over the last 6 months. And when I was an ntl: customer. And CableTel before that. 27 years of 56k > 350Mb and now it’s totally doing my head in. Unable to work from home properly. Boss won’t be happy!
-
Matt Rose (@mattrose18) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia TV is an issue. broadband is not. Tests are always either cannot connect at this time or say there is nothing wrong. Don’t see how my kit in the house can one minute have speeds on +300Mb to next to nothing?

-
CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@MoneySavingExp How about they just deliver consistent service? I am leaving Virginmedia and they are making it hard, there rules state if I don’t get the speeds promised they I can leave without penalties, I’ve had 7 times where I have connection in the last 3 days! @virginmedia @richardbranson
-
CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@virginmedia Yes I have on multiple occasions, I have just been taking to engineer who running the 30 day test, while taking to him I had 3 lost connection issues. Your employees are trying say that I will have to pay to leave my contract, @Ofcom state, I can leave without penalty

Mo2 (@ImaginaryCard) reportedHello @virginmedia the Internet has been down since 7.30am and I haven't been able to register a loss of service on your website. Wtf
-
Simon Gallagher (@SiGallagher) reported@virginmedia What's the issue with the app and website log ins? It's not working, not showing an error message other than "server_error" in the URL, and I see no status update from you?
-
GarethYOURCXC (@GarethYOURCXC) reported@OCP_84 @virginmedia @tntsports That is just bonkers! Clearly "valuable" is being used in the wrong context. Their 'new' acquisition numbers are more important that long term customer loyalty/value.
-
Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reportedHi @virginmedia. Fault F012283434 started last Thursday and you're now saying you don't intend to fix it at all this week. Do you actually think it's OK for your customers to be unable to work for a week? Could you not even try to explain what's wrong and what you're doing?
-
cameron scotece (@CameronScotece) reported@virginmedia why is the WiFi so poor around Nottingham area , getting 1mb download , not acceptable when paying £60 a month+
-
Stuart Mills (@MooeyMills) reported@virginmedia you need to employ more staff it’s impossible to speak with a human being when support is needed and your online solutions are totally inadequate and result in unwanted enineers visits
-
Elizabeth Ellis (@LizEllisPianist) reportedGhastly customer service from @virginmedia #O2mobile , no resolution to an issue which started in August 2024 ! Beyond a joke at this point ! Legal route is now the only way forward with this !
-
Gary (@garyjdale) reported@virginmedia Good Morning, can I speak to someone about my internet please? I have no service at present. It says there’s a fault in my area but nothing about a total loss of service 🤔
-
Valak (@Valak66666666) reported@virginmedia my broadband in my area has gone down 3 times in 3 days

joseph chambers (@Joe442Joseph) reported@GeorgeGros @virginmedia Too many overseas call centre reps who are not there for a better service but a cheaper one for virgin
