  @virginmedia I have been trying to get hold of someone to establish why I cannot login to my account online and why I have been overcharged. Despite being told several times that someone would get back to me in 24 hours it never seems to happen. Please advise how I can reach you.

  @virginmedia I had my WiFi and phone installed back in June , the box outside my house was broken so your engineer connected to my next door neighbour, and was told it would only be for a week , I have phoned numerous times and just get ignored . Atrocious service!

  Trying to talk to get a change to our @virginmedia account. 5 weeks, none of the promised call back & now they close our account without telling us. If this is how they treat long term customer avoid like the plague!! #customerservicefail #broadband

  @virginmedia Just when I thought you'd fixed it, it goes wrong.....was working fine during the day. Busy times your service is shocking. I've now got the same message.... insufficient bandwidth.

  @tapmydata @ICOnews @virginmedia I know. I’ve seen a few tweets people complaining about the customer service and their handling of data under the GDPR regulations

  Virgin media genuinely might be the worst company out there,want to watch footy at 4pm and their box is down,what a joke @virginmedia

• 
  Vicky Leigh (@vickiferris) reported 15 minutes ago

  Try to speak to customer services to confirm what is happening. Ask for a call back. They will not. They tell me I should have had a new box already (the wrong one). To me means the envelope or new 360 box has not been actioned despite being told it has been (6) @virginmedia

  Ferdi Rezvan (@ferdi_rezvan) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Multiple random outages over 24 hours, and your virgin status page does not work properly. Should have stayed with BT in 2 years and had no outages. Regret joining virgin media , poor internet and poor technical support.

  D (@idczn) reported 18 minutes ago

  The only contract I ever signed with Virgin Media was in 2018, and it continues to this day. I have never changed or upgraded it; I only occasionally tried to report home network connection issues. It turns out that in November 2024, a two-year contract was accepted, which I only found out about in 2025 when I wanted to cancel their services. I couldn't leave them XD However, checking who did this on my behalf and when (because it certainly wasn't me) was impossible, as I had no way to log into my Virgin account Now I cansee- the accepted contract has different number? There is no any signature of mine- and information that was sent to e-mail: back then controlled by hacker
