  @virginmedia I checked on the app and it says my account has finished . I’m not going to waste more of my time being left on hold when I have requested someone phone me back and been told 24-48 hours and still nothing. If only the customer service were as helpful as your Twitter team

  @money4nuffin @virginmedia This is the 1st issue I’ve had with them in fairness and not happy with the way they are handling it. Other than screen shots of other peoples phones I’ve had no updates

  1st day with @virginmedia & **** all is working. Waited all day for an “engineer” to come & make an abysmal attempt at installation before telling me everything was working & then ******* off rather sharpish. Spent the rest of evening on phone trying to sort. Appalling service

  Morning @virginmedia, I’m starting to become a little fed up with your current business model. You take my money, but supply a less than reliable WiFi service. Will it take a cancelled direct debit to get your attention? Please fix. 😡

• 
  Sheradon Dublin (@sheradondublin) reported 18 minutes ago from Margate, England

  @virginmedia The new box arrived, and the WiFi sorted itself out for now at least. The boosters are still generating the old network also. I’m planning on leaving everything as it is till it goes wrong again, then I’ll call.

  @virginmedia... broadband has been down all day and expected back at 5:25pm, still not working. Now, recheck the app and not expected back until 8am tomorrow! Seriously?! Why? What has happened? How can it be down for that long? Ridiculous, especially when people work from home.

  @virginmedia @Dan13lBurk3 I spoke to tour customer service team who “guaranteed this fault would rectified by 21:25”. I explained the gravity as I needed to finish work for Xmas. They lied!!

  @virginmedia your customer service is very disappointing. Have nothing but problems but never get any help from you.

  Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported 45 minutes ago from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

  @virginmedia I am extremely unhappy broadband been down since 1.15pm. Booked an engineer. This has been cancelled with no explanation. Can’t book another. Service status says it’s fine but many others online in CT10 says there is an area issue. First person on phone hung up.

• 
  Sam Sparrow 🇪🇺 (@SamRSparrow) reported 53 minutes ago from Broadstairs and St. Peters, England

  @virginmedia Why would my page have no update since 1pm? I’m only getting updates via community Facebook page and my parents. My postcode is CT10 2SW. I would also like to know why my engineer visit was cancelled and how I make a complaint.

  Not sure if it was just me but, my @primevideouk just went a shit for a few mins. Kept kicking me out the game via my smart tv app so switched to app via @virginmedia box and it was stuttering slightly, like a dodgy stream. Rather annoying. #BURMCI #AmazonPrime #Amazon

  @saltyy_savage I had Virgin media for years and only issues and expensive contracts. I am on Plusnet right now £43/46 for 900mb with 0 problems and uk customer services. They do £3 increase yearly and I am curious to see my first contract end what I'll get. Bet still better than virgin

  @Benleo @CherryFaves0 @virginmedia They are useless the call centre staff are clueless I was only trying to be able to log into account on line and change bank details with them still never got it done all time I was with them I had to ring up every month to pay bill the only thing they understand is taking money

  Pete Carroll (@pcarrollmusic1) reported 9 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Absolutely despicable. My elderly parents had problems too when they first signed up to them, then they had to navigate their call centre speak from India to resolve it. They're not that good and don't care

  Geoff Jones (@geoffjones7) reported 11 minutes ago

  @Benleo @virginmedia I was a service engineer for many years for Virgin (formally Telewest). You most certainly do not have to renew a contract to get a cable fixed. Also the Indian call centre has been a long-standing issue for their customers. Very poor service

• 
  Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported 12 minutes ago

  Update to this… they really are the worst company in Britain right now - and you won’t believe what @virginmedia have done. I called VM on April 30 asking them to come and fix a broken outside cable at my house. I was (wrongly) told that in order to fix the cable I had to agree a new two year contract which included a main 360 TV box and three streaming boxes. Nothing was ever arranged about fixing my problem, the broken cable. The Indian call centre guy just wanted a sale. After many calls and a missed appointments where I waited in pointlessly after no one ever turned up, an engineer came to fix the cable and install my new boxes. The TV never worked. More calls, two more engineer visits, and it still wouldn’t work. I then posted the original below on X. I then a call from the Virgin Media CEO @LutzSchueler’s assistant to say they MISSOLD me the new contract I never wanted because VM no longer offers 360 TV boxes which allow you to pause, record and rewind live TV. I said ok fine, just put me back on my old contract which had a 360 box - the contract I never would have left until you missold me a new one under the pretence I needed it to fix my broken cable. The CEO’s assistant said no, I can’t go back onto my old contract. And she said I can’t have a 360 box on my new contract. So I’m now stuck with a service I don’t want and was lied to about - with no option to return to my previous contract that I was perfectly happy with since April 2025. They’ve not only missold me a contract, spent hours and hours of my time trying to sort it and caused a hell of a lot of stress - but they’ve now also breached my old contract. She offered me £200 compensation and an apology and said I must stick with the new contract or disconnect. A completely shambolic, insulting and quite frankly disgusting way to treat a customer who has been with them for years. I’ve heard from many of you about similar situations and will now be taking the case to the ombudsman. A clear breach of the Consumer Rights Act and the The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008. If anyone has similar experiences with @virginmedia please write them below or DM me. I’ll be fighting for British consumers to make sure they can never treat people like this again.

  @Benleo @virginmedia Virgin Media couldnt fix my internet broadband after 3 engineer visit and they broke my wardrobe and i switched to EE which is better

  Anumcara (@Anumcaras) reported 17 minutes ago

  @Benleo @virginmedia Similar happened to me and again the call centre pushing am unnecessary sale and left me with no internet for weeks. Falsely claiming I needed new equipment but didn’t book an engineer It’s not the same company these days. Issues started September and this Friday engineer will finally arrive. I had to go back to sky in the meantime and move the virgin account to an other address because they would not cancel and kept ending calls. I would not recommend them. Also they have had issues nationwide with internet past two weeks impossible to work from home or study. Will they reimburse those customers?
