-
Wolé Adesemoye (@WoleAdesemoye) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia My previous landline telephone number was meant to be ported over and this never got done. I’ve never been able to receive incoming calls on my landline. Internet is very intermittent. My experience with your customer service hasn’t been great. All along I’ve been paying in full.
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Nope but your call centre and engineers told me that a ‘laser part’ needs replacing in Earl’s Court square sw5. They also said 500 homes are affected. Can’t tell me when it will be fixed. Problem ongoing for 3 weeks @ofcom
-
MIKA SIMMONS (@MissMikaSimmons) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Yes the TV is down in my area. The wifi is fine. I have known this for days and no one at Virgin media picks up a call or returns the text. I’d like to cancel my account
-
Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England@BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.
-
Nicky Beale (@NickyJBeale) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia not very happy with the service from Virgin Media! After looking to leave them last week they promised to improve the WiFi and install a 2nd box. Well we have never and now they want to install the 2nd box in a MONTH and a HALF! #poorservice #virginmedia

🎤Toby Gilles🎤 (@tobygilles) reported from Paddington, EnglandAnyone else having an issue making calls on @virginmedia mobile? Is this a known issue?
-
Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Yes I did try to call but couldn’t get hold of anyone after a 20 min wait. As you can see from the screenshot above in previous tweet, every appointment I make gets cancelled. Are you able to do something about this? Any help would be much appreciated
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@daisymcandrew @SkyUK Whatever you do, do not go to @virginmedia . Totally unreliable broadband and worse customer service
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@AsadMoghal @virginmedia That’s of course if you get a reply from a genuine account . Lots of scammer accounts reply to Vm complaint tweets - because there are so very many online complaints #virginmediadown
-
Asad Moghal (@AsadMoghal) reported from Kensington, EnglandWhy does @virginmedia have the worst customer service - the chatbot won’t work, the telephone service disconnects straight away - why bother with the service?
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@Amerah_Ahmed @virginmedia @richardbranson Absolutely it’s just extraordinary . I pay them 70 quid a month to be Spoken to like dirt by someone who has no knowledge of all the problems and can’t construct a sentence . The most appalling service I have ever experienced . The problems in sw5 have gone on for weeks @ofcom
-
Dr. Amerah Ahmed (@Amerah_Ahmed) reported from Kensington, England@edward_baran @virginmedia I am really horrified at their service..... I just can’t believe the way they speak to customers. I spoke to 3 different individuals who were so righteous. I understand you work for a big brand however that does not mean you can have a big ego....you are not @richardbranson
-
Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.
-
craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia And how am I to do that with no service? It took 3 technicians to figure out my modem had to be “pin reset” and another to rename it properly. Thats 1 hr of my life gone. So glad @CommunityFibre has arrived near me.
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia I have raised many complaints . I just had a reply by email in broken English weeks later. The reply made no sense. Three weeks on the faults continue @ofcom
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@AnotherRunHQ @virginmedia Same in London sw5. They won’t even acknowledge the issue
-
reme campos (@remecampos) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia I had check that a few times but unfortunately it could not be fixed. This is an ongoing problem and it is not on. Also my phone line not working
-
Mat Morrison (@mediaczar) reported from Paddington, England@OminousBagel @virginmedia This is what is annoying me most. They pretend to believe that their service status page is working. But they must have worked out that it isn’t.
-
Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia If you were sorry you’d fix the problems. They’ve gone on for weeks @ofcom
-
MarcHayo. Former ditherer. Now pro hard-changed EU (@markhayo) reported from Kensington, EnglandRespect to the engineers @virginmedia Consistently maintaining such a complex network is a tough job, especially at a time of exceptional demand. Whingeing the instant something as advanced as an internet network goes wrong is such a self-regarding 1st World problem. Shame on us

parody of a parody of a parody of nothing (@emnm69backup) reportedHey @virginmedia Why are there constant broadband issues in the fy4 area? Regular cut offs. At least half a dozen times so far this month. Contract to soon, so maybe time to switch if you can't provide a reliable service. Ps,your chat bot is also as useless as your broadband.
-
Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reportedHouses before, after and across the street from us have access to @WeAreOpenreach full fibre and all the companies but our block doesn't....like come on! Am kinda sick of how often @virginmedia dies out. On off yet again. Yet again complaint submitted

Virgin Media News (@VirginMediaNews) reportedPrince Harry, Elton John and five others have been ordered to pay an initial £9.5 million to the publisher of Britain’s Daily Mail following their failed privacy case. The group had accused the publisher of unlawful information gathering - claims it denied. The judge found there was insufficient evidence to support the claims and said there was a possibility the reporting came from legitimate sources. The £9.5 million payment must be made by August 28.

Misanthrope (@Misanth23754159) reported@Suzanne46462413 @virginmedia I get that all the time until I realised it was because for some stupid reason they block anyone not in the UK. Are you outside the UK?
-
putasinghonit (@putasinghonit) reportedAnyone ever had @virginmedia charge them for a movie they never purchased? Theres no history on my app, box or even an email confirmation of said purchase mind you - just a charge on my bill for £17.99 which they say was purchased with a pin number on the box.
