Rachel George (@George2Rachel) reported from Neath, Wales@virginmedia thank you for keeping me on hold for the last 35 minutes then disconnecting me. I really didn’t have anything better to do on a Friday evening. Useless customer service continues
-
JonJamesPhotography (@JonJamesPhoto81) reported from Port Talbot, Wales@virginmedia @johnmclaren1972 All I’m seeing are apologies but still no resolution to fixing issues, providing a decent service or looking after existing customers. I’ll be changing to sky next month.
-
Elliot Griffiths (@ELGriff28) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia Yes, there is. I have outages every week and im trying to work from home. Everytime i call i get the same answer (theres nothing we can do) I asked to raise a complaint and i was told that agents arent allowed? Appalling service!!!!😡
-
NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Skewen, Wales@virginmedia I received it back in May/June time, I already logged a complaint with the person who promised me they had sort it because of your absolutely abysmal customer service and still nearly another month later, moving into October I still have not received my refund! Coming into 6 mths
-
Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.
-
Vanessa Walsh (@NessafromNeath) reported from Neath, WalesDisappointed to be leaving Virgin Media having been a loyal customer for many years. Poor customer service- they were more than happy to terminate our contract without caring to discuss options. Having waited an age to discuss options this was so disappointing! #virginmedia
-
Michael Jenkins (@Michael73271023) reported from Dyffryn Clydach, Wales@virginmedia sort your internet out as it's not working yet again
-

-
Val (@Botleylady) reported from Swansea, WalesStill holding on the phone to @virginmedia after 1hr. 31mins 43secs. Absolutely disgusting service.

Michael owen Ⓜ (@mikeyowen2) reported from Cwmafan, Wales@virginmedia next time my internet goes off when I'm 5 kills on warzone il be bringing verdansk to your ******* office. #**** #gulag #warzone
-
David (@Davetails) reported from Aberavon, Wales@virginmedia You could have offered an existing customer a fair price 4 months ago, @youfibre are in my area now so you are done.
-
Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, WalesSpend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing
-
Benjamin Woodcock (@TheBenWoodcock) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia im getting really annoyed with your mobile service as I cannot receive any automated text messages (which makes 2FA for some stuff impossible). This is an ongoing issue. Also unable to get through to 150
-
𝗗𝗲𝘅 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝘇𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 (@Dex_Fitz) reported from Skewen, Wales@virginmedia So you’re telling me that because 3 separate members of your staff have lied and not raised a complaint when I’ve asked, I now need to send you a letter? Are you joking? #VirginMedia
-
Michael (@MikeARose98) reported from Cwmafan, Wales@virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡
-
Ade Wagstaff Physio MACP 🏴 (@adewagstaff) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice
-
Sebbong 🏴 (@DSebburn) reported from Bridgend, Wales@SweatDoggGaming @virginmedia Never had any issue with BT Been with them 15 years

simon withers (@KalEl_WBS) reported@virginmedia You never reply to messages! Why bother asking to send us a DM. Also what’s the confusion you mentioned?
-
🌈 Lily and Penny (@Croston2Croston) reported@Pugsie1960 @flyabout7 Honestly what is it with these people? If they're not hacking your X or FB account they're sending scam emails. When that doesn't work they phone and tell you they're Henry from Virgin Media and your Internet is down. To quote Jim Royle Henry my a**e xxx
-
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/?
-
Jackie (@boomerangjf) reported@virginmedia your service is diabolical ! We are still experiencing intermittent/reduction in service after being told it would be working properly from 29 July. I assume you will be expecting a reduction in payment from me?
-
Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reportedSo fed with @virginmedia. The sky sports plus system has not been working for over a week and they have done nothing to fix it! Starts playing and then crashes, works on the crappy stream box but the quality is poor, works via the apps and website but not on the normal box!
-
Dety (@Dety0) reportedLove tech like this WAS-110 XGS-PON SFP is a a module that allows you to bypass most USA/CA routers (AT&T's BGW320, Virgin Media's Hub 5X, or Bell's Giga Hub) by copying info from your router to this module and insert into a third party router or media convert from SFP to Ethernet to a router Get better stability, performance, and stronger QoS settings / firewall etc compared to the default setup I hope 1 day i find someone that needs this done
-
Militia Matt (@DrealSMAK) reported@PaulTurner140 @virginmedia Oh I know this. I did DM and they’ve given some instructions. If those don’t work I’ll be gone. Can’t be paying for rubbish service
-
IzO (@IzO_TTV) reported@virginmedia You have literally the most infuriating customer service process known to the entire universe. I cannot wait to be out of this Devil spawn of a contract. I actually pray for the down fall of this company with a passion. Zero interest in customer needs just straight aggressive sales tactics. Get out of my life seriously.
-
This is me 🧶 (@Margymoo) reported@virginmedia need help, this online #whattsapp group is dire
-
Shardon (@shardon1980) reported@virginmedia I can’t send DMs but update. Issue won’t be fixed until 14th August . Absolutely unacceptable. No notice or comms I had to check myself. I pay you a lot of money. To be over 2 weeks with no WiFi is unacceptable. No details either and your hotline has a wait time of over 45 mins.
