    @virginmedia evening, we have phoned once today re; activating WiFi hub, however it’s flashed all day. We reset but still flashing hours later, and now can’t get through on phone to activate new WiFi box. Any help at all? Been on hold for an hour now, no WiFi for 2 days.

    Frances Godden (@LaGodden) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia No, you never gave me one. Just an automated email and then via Resolver RES8137564. Agent yesterday promised me Paul would call me before 4pm. She said my complaint had been closed in error as a duplicate but you’ve never attempted contact despite it being over 3 weeks.

  • AndyCarolan
    Andy Carolan (@AndyCarolan) reported from Old Catton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, the speeds are making out at about 94mbps… I used to get up to about 240Mbps. If for some reason those speeds are no longer possible, how about my service plan being changed to reflect this?

  • CRISTINAjj
    Cristina (@CRISTINAjj) reported from Thorpe St. Andrew, England

    @virginmedia Took me couple of calls, a new hub delivery today and now still no internet. And apparently I have an engineer coming this Friday. I am definitely closing my contract , not the only one who doesn’t have a service

    @virginmedia I still have not talked to anyone to get help. I was sent a text last morning at 7 asking if I still need help which I saw last night 🤪

    Mark Standbrook (@Tall2D) reported from Norwich, England

    Three years with @virginmedia involved runaway price hikes, terrible customer service and promises of higher speeds that never materialised.

    Jacques (@FutJacques) reported from Norwich, England

    Virgin media are awful. Wi-Fi should’ve been installed on 19th of August, and the full installation has been pushed back to past November despite still paying for the Wi-Fi. Shocking.

    @Just_Ranting2 @virginmedia @Virgin We’d just like someone who can solve problems to pick up the phone instead of passing on to another person who can’t or won’t help. I’m currently texting someone who must be on Mars judging by the speed of response

  • sockformation
    Tim (@sockformation) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to install my broadband, but don’t have the right socket at home. I was told I wouldn’t need an engineer which is why I booked it in now. Also, my password isn’t working so I can’t do anything. Please help because at the moment I’ll be paying for nothing

  • DrS_Reynolds
    Shirley Reynolds #FBPE (@DrS_Reynolds) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s not relevant what the service page tells us about this area - the problem is that we have had no internet since Sunday and want to know when we will be reconnected.

    @TeaKayB @virginmedia My son endured similar circle of hell cancelling his account with them when the Uni’s shut down in person teaching and he returned home. Have numerous screenshots of hr long waiting. In the end, he cancelled his direct debit and complained to Trading Standards.

    @virginmedia what a crafty way of getting money. Charging £240 to disconnect as moving to property that you can't supply service to

    Is this a known issue? Same here for us @virginmedia

  • GazzaAdams
    Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    Hi @virginmedia This latest update appears to directly contradict the update you sent me earlier today. At 12:57, I was told that an engineer **was already on site and working to fix the problem**, with an estimated repair time of **18:00 today, 19/08/2026**. At 15:24, I am now being told that you have identified the problem and that an engineer **is on their way**, with the estimated repair time moved to **14:10 on 21/08/2026**. This is the original date that was stated 2 weeks ago. Could you please provide an accurate explanation of what is actually happening with fault **F012421201**? In particular: * Was an engineer on site earlier today, as stated? * If so, why is an engineer now apparently only “on their way”? * What has happened to cause the estimated repair time to move from this evening to Friday afternoon? * Is 21/08/2026 at 14:10 now a reliable estimate, or is this simply an automated placeholder? I appreciate that faults can take longer than expected to repair. What is frustrating is receiving contradictory information that makes it impossible to understand the actual status of the fault. Please provide a clear and factual update rather than another automated status message.
