  @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  Bernie Biggs (@Biggsy58) reported 13 minutes ago from Bexleyheath, England

  @virginmedia putting their tariffs up by 17.3% from 1st April - that’s 3.9% over the Retail Price Index Inflation of 13.4%…people getting nowhere near this sort of increase in their pay packets…hang your heads in shame especially in a cost of living crisis.

  @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

• 
  Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported 27 minutes ago from East Ham, England

  @virginmedia Just spouting corporate line does not improve the situation. No advanced notice, no resolution to problem, appointment missed, but if I am not here for a visit I am fined. This is very one sided for a service that has other companies wanting the business

  Khaled Miah (@Khaled_Miah1) reported 31 minutes ago from Poplar, England

  @virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?

  @virginmedia Hi. Have no wifi (green light) and despite rebooting several times have a had no luck. This has happened after following your instruction to reboot for ‘faster speed’. Please advise asap - no issues in the area according to your website.

  virgin media was asking for my customer’s card details over the phone which i found suspicious but he goes to me “i ain’t got anything in the bank for them to nick anyway hahaha” 😭😭😭

  @virginmedia awful disgusting customer service. 3 different agents 3 conflicting replies and told other were lies! What has happened to virgin? Supervisor was so rude. Didn't listen and kept interrupting me with robot replies. #terriblecustomerservice #badcustomerservice

• 
  Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported 44 minutes ago from Croydon, England

  Shockingly bad experience (again) from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - “upgrade” yesterday has wiped out my Wi-Fi - engineer coming next week. Couldn’t make it up, these cowboys really are the worst

• 
  Baltazarka (@MiaZagica) reported 49 minutes ago from Lambeth, England

  @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

  Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported 51 minutes ago from Southwark, England

  @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

• 
  Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported 53 minutes ago from Poplar, England

  @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

• 
  #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported 57 minutes ago from Southwark, England

  The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

  @virginmedia 11/ I've never been 6 days without internet and help was much more available in the past with virgin. Now, customers are being left high and dry.

  @virginmedia @JSims_92 During lockdown they off loaded staff and then didn’t re-employ - worse customer service across the industry and that says something when in the same list as BT and Vodafone

  @whisperwoIf @virginmedia was screwing me over too, was trying to play Fortnite with my Scottish friend and I lagged when in game and then when we reached lobby? My damn PlayStation overheated because of the heatwave

  JR (@Dadyougeek) reported 4 minutes ago

  No @virginmedia internet since Wednesday afternoon, engineer yesterday said someone needs to come out and fix something between box and house and we’re meant to do this yesterday! No show from them and nothing so far today! #shambles

  Addy (@iadnan9) reported 5 minutes ago

  @ipa1869 @virginmedia Virgin Media fined £28m over 'deliberately dropping calls' and putting people on hold 'for no reason' Customers trying to cancel or switch were routinely put through the wringer by Virgin's customer service agents, an investigation by the regulator has found.

• 
  Minute Market (@Minutemarketio) reported 7 minutes ago

  Virgin Media Gets Fined 🫰 Virgin Media was hit with a £28 million, or roughly $37 million, fine by UK regulator Ofcom for repeatedly making it harder for customers to cancel contracts between 2022 and 2024. That is not just a consumer-rights story. It is a warning for telecom and subscription businesses that “retention tricks” can become regulatory liabilities. In a market obsessed with recurring revenue, cancellation friction is now a legal risk.

  No service at all from @virginMedia nobody to take responsibily for any problems, no manager to speak to its tough we dont care that the attitude.

  @virginmedia Hub box is stuck on a reboot cycle with ‘welcome’ ‘please wait’ and virgin media logo screen. Nothing is happening. I’ve rebooted several times for the past hour. Please can you advise? I cannot get through to the customer service via the phone.
