David Bryden (@Daveyb1974) reported from Urmston, England
@nickleeland @virginmedia I asked to speak to someone that could help and got “my supervisor is on 14 day isolation”. Ok put him on the phone as I’m guessing he can work from home? Computer says no! Poor poor service!
-
Sophie Reynolds (@1sophiereynolds) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England
@virginmedia Yes, I checked online and there are outage issues in the area. However I was sent a text saying it had been resolved yesterday, but it is still not working this morning!

Gareth Longley (@garethlongley) reported from Salford, England
@virginmedia what the hell is going on with your internet!? I’ve been holding to get through to your customer service department for almost an hour now (after being cut off twice!). I’m ready to cancel this AWFUL service!
-
J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England
@virginmedia So me as a customer who don’t know this information, and searches your customer number after you don’t provide your services, been kept 40mins on phone line and then get phone put down from your staff. Brilliant!!!
-
David Bryden (@Daveyb1974) reported from Urmston, England
Great work from @virginmedia, your contract has expired, we want you to stay as a customer, we’ll give you the best deal out there! Give them a call, sorry can’t help, you’re on the best package, but we want to charge you £40 a month more than a new customer! #shitshow

Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia Thank you for your response. I have submitted a complaint, although I’ve no response to that either. Our internet is shocking and we’ve got a temp fix outside which needs to be made permanent from 4 wks ago. Paying a lot for nothing currently
-
Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia What details do you require in any text I send?? Seems a bit odd considering you should already have my complaint and my details 🤔 we’ve established I don’t have a ref number, so further info will assist??
-
Richard Hizzard (@Hizz67) reported from Greetland, England
I now have more than16 hours wasted with @virginmedia trying to contact them to resolve an issue. Beggars belief how bad they are when the fault is on their part. Best I cancel contract as clearly not delivering their part 🤬
-
gomez (@tgomez7) reported from Sale, England
@virginmedia I have been trying to cancel my account for over a week now. 5 calls made and still nobody has been able to help me. This is an absolute joke!! Please tell me how I can do this in writing?
-
Sarah Cassidy 🐝 (@SarahCassidy) reported from Manchester, England
Anyone else who gave their details to track and trace suddenly being spammed with fake email accounts, and bombarded with phone calls from fake VirginMedia/BT claiming broadband speeds are up and down?
-
David Bryden (@Daveyb1974) reported from Urmston, England
@virginmedia This is the exact type of poor service I received when I called customer service. The package I am currently on is £89 for a new customer, but £129 for a loyal customer. The response back was “that’s all I can do”. Your response is almost as bad “don’t like it, raise a complaint”
-
chris petchelli (@Petchelli) reported from Rochdale, England
@virginmedia what’s going on with the PPV feed. It’s choppy as ****, £25 for this is a joke.
-
Richard Hizzard (@Hizz67) reported from Halifax, England
@virginmedia moved house last Friday and have brought my package with me. Engineer came to check all ok. Why a week later am I still not able to receive calls on landline. I have notched up 6 hours on your holding system thus far and spoken with 1 'assistant' Grounds to cancel?
-
J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England
@virginmedia That’s different scenario on my bill, why I’m charged to call your Customer Service line
-
J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England
@immihepburn @virginmedia I few for you, same happened to me as well. After 40 mins on the phone , charging me £8 to call customer number, their staff put the phone down on me . TERRIBLE SERVICE
-
Jamie McDonald (@lambtiger) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England
Truly appalling customer service from @virginmedia. Due an engineer visit today: he’s just rung to say your call centre raised the job incorrectly and he’s not coming as they don’t carry the stock any more. No apology, no lifeline, no empathy. Shocking.
-
Humps Snr (@HumpsSnr) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia I don’t. When I submitted the complaint (2nd) I chose the telephone call option, using my home number. I haven’t received any call to date!!
-
Sally pickford (@salpea77) reported from Stockport, England
@virginmedia code v210 on the tv how can I get help for this??

@virginmedia Hi, I've been trying to get in contact for ages with you guys. I'm extremely unhappy with your service. We have 'upgraded' and the WiFi's even worse now. I want to leave, please help.

Caroline (@CarolinePerry71) reported
@virginmedia VIRGIN HELP PLEASE. My mother is 81 her tv not working and someone supposed to arrive Monday with new box. No one has been. She has called customer service repeatedly and cant speak to anyone. She is vulnerable and lives alone and depends on tv. Who can action this
-
Joss (@cjossy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England
@virginmedia As slow as your broadband speed
-
Steven Robinson (@scrabsy) reported
So less than 1 week after signing up to @virginmedia my new land line number has found its way to scammers. Im not saying someone is profiting from selling on newly registered numbers but its very strange! Especially since i have never given this number out to anyone.
-
Jamie (@IveGotWood1979) reported
@virginmedia Sure. I negotiated my price a couple of months back for the 200mbps service. Then last month you tell me it's going up by £3.50 from march. Then this week Vodafone have said I can have their 500mbps service for slightly less, fixed for 24 months. Seems a no brainer really
-
Terri ♥ (@terrimcfarlane_) reported
Has anyone ever managed to actually successfully have a complaint dealt with by @virginmedia without being completely fobbed off? Please tell me how 🙌🏻
-
Lgmars (@lee1988mars) reported
@virginmedia why have I spent over 2 hours on the phone waiting for you to answer the phone so I can cancel the services ******* useless this company no one should be joining no wonder your having to drop your prices
-
Howard Wing (@howardwing63) reported
@virginmedia Have had issues with tv streaming services for past week or so. Internet (Wi-Fi) keeps dropping out on a daily basis. Virgin TV Control no longer allowing me to connect and watch tv via iPad. All in all - Not getting what I’m paying for.
