    Come on @virginmedia I'm again being plagued by #fake #scam #fraud calls on landline. I'm not registered anywhere and on blocked lists. There's auto diallers i believe but operators should be cracking down on this.

    @virginmedia hi, I know you are dealing with t.v. issues but I need to talk to someone regards a missing mobile phone that Yodel have lost, will this be possible?

  • garycross
    Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Spoken with two different agents and got teo different answers. One said there was a known fault and the other said the opposite. Second agent claimed he booked me a virtual help call hut nobody called. I've ended up having to book my own engineer visit. Nobody has been helpful.

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia No. I’m done with text, on line and anything except talking to someone. You’ve had the opportunity using the bot, Twitter and online support, now we need to communicate in person. #realpeople

    @virginmedia been on live chat hold for nearly 30 minutes and it’s still saying 45 minutes wait as it did at the start. Not very good customer service since pandemic.

  • juanfelipe1
    John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Or you could invite your customers to get in touch when out of contract or you could even tell us what deals are on offer to help us stay. I suspect you don't because you realise that inertia effects are high when it comes to changing broadband packages.

  • LuetchfordClare
    clare luetchford (@LuetchfordClare) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia could you explain to me why over 20 years of being a customer of yours counts for nothing you’d rather lose a loyal customer

  • faizalmom
    Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia rang up yesterday for disconnecting phone & broadband very bad attitude from the lady i spoke too from the beginning off the call when i first said hello.

  • tkearins
    Tony Kearins (@tkearins) reported from Tilton, England

    @virginmedia my 77yo mother waits 40 mins in a phone queue. Explains the account/billing issue. Person puts her on hold for another 45 mins until she hangs up. And this is acceptable?

  • Manraj_Virkk
    Manraj (@Manraj_Virkk) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia why does my wifi keep cutting out every 15 mins for about 2 mins then come back? Not great when I work from home and my meetings cut out midway through…

  • Bobby_Dazzler68
    Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Yes, need a pod, also have t.v and home phone, TV service has lots of you tube, Netflix, sky movie drop outs

  • juanfelipe1
    John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia This isn’t a problem just today, we have had the same issues for nearly a month, can you at least tell us what the prob is, we might even understand!! Please fix or refund. Lk fwd to your call.

  • scottydaly1989
    Scott (@scottydaly1989) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia are you ever gonna reply to any of my tweets for help!!

  • SteveRiches4
    Safetypenfold (@SteveRiches4) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia router not working, of course not your equipment has to be mine. Why have to wait 48 hours to phone again if still not working. It’s arrogant to think we know nothing about IT.

    @Starlink Exciting times. VIRGIN MEDIA BULLIES NEED KNOCKING DOWN MANY PEGS. MY PREVIOUS CONTRACT STARTED AT £36.. WITHIN 2 YEARS IT ROSE TO £92 FOR A BASIC INTERNET PACKAGE. CONTRACT ENDED I MOVED ASAP. NOT REALISING VIRGIN WERE STILL CHARGING ME, RACKING UP A DEBT. RUINED MY CREDIT SCORE WHEN I REFUSED TO PAY THEM. I OFFERED 50% AND THEY POINT BLANK REFUSED. THE WORST CUSTOMER LOYALTY I'VE EVER DEALT WITH.

    @virginmedia WTF is up with your service lately in PA1? I've logged 309 disconnections in the past week (101 of those in the past day - 439 in month). All I get from your service status page is "Intermittent signal in your area". Is it the weather? Do I need a new hub?

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia You had issues too? I've been sent a new set top box and it doesn't work at all. I need to get back to them next week before they start chucking charges on my account though....

    If you’re a local business looking for new broadband whatever you do don’t use @vmbusiness Absolutely useless company, terrible customer service. My wife was given the wrong info when signing up, costing us money and they’ve so far spent 7 weeks investigating it to no avail!

    Alicia Folge (@ASoria34455) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia how can you leave customers without access to internet for days in 2026? I just came back from South America & when we had a problem it was fixed within the hour, you really can’t do better?
