    Another day, trying to do admin at home. Another day and wanting to literally throw my @virginmedia router under a lorry!!! What is it with @virginmedia and their lousy WiFi???? Paying for a premium service and receiving something not far better than dialup!!

    @virginmedia I pay a lot of money every month for high speed fibre, but at the moment this is terrible. I reset my router every morning, but this morning I can’t stream 1 video (through Ethernet) to work out to even with no other devices working.

    Mark Bates (@officer_cartman) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia for the last 8 weeks internet has randomly dropped out several times ,about once per day ,I know others in area have had same problem and apparently won’t be fixed until 27th may .not contacted via phone due to current condition .

  • CarlJTaylor23
    Carl Taylor (@CarlJTaylor23) reported from St. Leonards and St. Ives, England

    @virginmedia - twice I have been cut off when calling you this morning. Third time referred to complete a form on your website. Form doesn’t exist and wants me to hold for 45 mins for Live Chat! Not a great service!

    @Rebeccaswain10 @virginmedia Is it really that bad? X

  • YoungJambo
    Jamie Will (@YoungJambo) reported from Poole, England

    @virginmedia Also, MOST of your customer service representatives are rude and don't know what they're talking about. Did you know one of them told me to dial 150 for CS, even though I clarified that I'm NOT a Virgin Mobile customer? "Yes, yes this still works for you sir." Nope.

  • LaurenSTompkins
    Lauren Tompkins (@LaurenSTompkins) reported from Bournemouth, England

    Any idea @virginmedia why for the last couple of weeks my virgin box has been recording programmes completely randomly. Programmes i never watch nor ever recorded? This has happened to four different shows this week alone?

  • TomWJDavis
    Tom Davis (@TomWJDavis) reported from Poole, England

    @alex_tomkins @virginmedia Yep, down for the past 30 mins or so.

    @virginmedia guys so you know your customer service is the absolute worst! My router has completely died and your trying to send me an engineer now I have to wait 4 days so can’t work! The internet never works! £56 a month for what?!?!

  • lizhearn4
    lizhearn_ (@lizhearn4) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I need to give notice to not carry on the contract after the minimum term ends but because I can’t remember my password - and the website won’t let me change it - I can’t get in contact with anyone, can you help?

  • MegzMakes_Music
    Meg Ben (@MegzMakes_Music) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia thieves. Overcharged me for a service I didn’t even ask for

  • ithastheanswer
    Stuart Jones (@ithastheanswer) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia hey virgin, you've downgraded my Netflix account without my permission. I'm mid contract. That's not allowed. I want it back to without ads asap or I reserve the right to cancel you without notice.

  • kevinclarknw
    Kevin Clark (@kevinclarknw) reported

    More horrendously bad service from @virginmedia. Broadband in SR2 out AGAIN, estimated to be off for three days and website says you need to register the fault to qualify for compensation while offering no way to do so.

    @virginmedia I’m disgusted that after being a VM customer for 18 straight years, I am being charged double to renew compared to VM new customer offer. DM me to resolve or I’m off to SKY. So disappointing to have to post this.

  • chibmanib

    @virginmedia please sort your Internet services out. Its up and down all day and now I've been without wifi for 2 whole days

  • saoirseisla
    Isla (@saoirseisla) reported

    My fave thing about @virginmedia is nothing. No WiFi for 4 days. No WiFi = no tv. Been fobbed off for days. Each day promising it’ll fixed by the end of the day. Only to turn around today and say only an engineer coming to the house can fix it. I want out of this contract.

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @nameHarryPalmer @virginmedia That's EXACTLY it. They couldn't be bothered to fix it, didn't tell me, cut me off completely and didn't bother to organise ANY kind of repair. It just beggars belief Words almost fail me as to how poor an organisation @virginmedia have turned out to be throughout all of this

  • JONEZZEEonMMA
    Kurt (@JONEZZEEonMMA) reported

    @GameRiot Exactly, who doesn't have the internet in 2026, virgin Media internet went down and was fixed for me with in 4 hours. If you don't log on you don't lose your games, just need to sign back in to play.

  • deanspread
    Deano (@deanspread) reported

    @virginmedia Well I’m at work now but it was working then going off for a couple minutes then back on all day. Then about 9pm went off for 20 mins then back on. Went on your page to check the service and it was saying nothing was wrong.

    iWalkOutdoors (@iWalkOutdoors) reported

    @jollyjapes Zero. Never have in the full 15yrs of trading. Don’t know how much a van costs? You think there’s enough left for dividends? Perhaps you’re mistaking me & my biz for a CEO of BP or a regional manager of VirginMedia. I bloomin live on a housing estate with other working ppl.
