    @virginmedia All your cable services are down right now, but can you explain why I can't access the programs recorded on the hard drive my virgin box? That makes no sense...

    1/4 Customer scam alert: When moving and contacting @virginmedia to transfer your services to your new property, if they cannot provide services there they will apply an early disconnection charge which they will state is in accordance with their Legal Stuff, do not accept this.

    @virginmedia how come after nearly 3 days is my internet not working?? How do I claim compensation for this??

  • KayleighBlaker
    Kayleigh Blaker (@KayleighBlaker) reported from Worthing, England

    When you call @virginmedia for assistance with installing your kit (box on the wall is faulty) and the advisor wishes she wasn’t there... I get you finish in 20 mins but doing GDPR and placing me on hold for ages isn’t on?! I pay for a service!

  • Sacto_King_UK

    @virginmedia With all due respect, saying sorry doesn’t sort anything. I’d much rather you offered some help If I treated a ‘Customer’ in my workplace the same way Virgin Media have treated my family, I’d almost certainly lose my job. The customer service continues to be appalling

  • Sacto_King_UK
    Danny Williamson (@Sacto_King_UK) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia So you stopped replying to my emails The install team has finally turned up, one week later than the promised date, only to find the team that spent an hour digging up my road, haven’t pulled the cables and therefore cannot complete the install What will you do to help now?

  • MrBrianRoe
    Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia your DNS TTL (a web server change time to live) is probably the worst on earth. My new website works everywhere in the world other than on #virginmedia broadband. You absolutely suck, big time. Crock of shite.

    It must have been a bad day for the #virginmedia social media team. I’m one of those affected by the outages today, but I bet my day’s been better than theirs!

    @virginmedia tv not working any help

  • garypleece
    Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Hi, we had an engineer around Saturday but it’s not really made much difference. It’s still intermittently dropping out and pretty slow too. What do you suggest to correct this?

  • MrBrianRoe
    Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia You maybe there, but you'll drop the call...again, and again, and then once more for luck. Bloody awful expireince trying to phone you. Not something I'm willing to repeat.

  • churchlard
    Churchlard (@churchlard) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia @52marathonman Now have to wait until 19th July, absolute rubbish, apparently they had no contact details for me, yet had sent me 17 emails and a similar number of texts! Appalling service, so much for being new business!

  • mrgarrett100
    Lee Garrett (@mrgarrett100) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia you guys are truly the worst... move the service to you with 6 weeks notice and you don't have it ready - suggesting we wait 16 days until you're ready with no service as we've cut the other provider?????

  • AnneWebb777

    @virginmedia @KikeKD 150 NOT WORKING FROM ANY PHONE

  • sami_chanchan
    Sami Channon (@sami_chanchan) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia Amazing thank you. I think I am getting somewhere with virgins Twitter team but there phone staff refused to escalate my complaint to a manager several times and then insisted on a call back which will apparently take 72 hours

  • esjexe
    Siobhan Fitzgerald-Gibson (@esjexe) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Intermittent broadband service for 24 hours, no contact or apology, and when I called your customer service rep said it wasn't on the status page because "it only affects 25% of customers." Your company should be up in front of Ofcom.

  • sara_saehasti
    Sara (@sara_saehasti) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia With all due respect I can't face another encounter via the phone or WhatsApp, far too time consuming. Could you provide me with an actual complaints email address as the online submission doesn't work

  • garypleece
    Gary Pleece (@garypleece) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia No it was the ‘general area fix’ (my engineer was cancelled by Virgin) which was then followed up with an email that said ‘everything is sorted’ which it was, until today when it was in and out again for hours. It’s ok now, but for how long?

    @Simon_Coates @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Pay £20 a month for Hyperoptic and I get 1gb up and down.

  • Si_67
    Si (@Si_67) reported

    @virginmedia Our broadband has recently started to fail on a daily basis. It has been fairly reliable until a couple of weeks ago. Yes, it comes back after a while, but this really isn't good enough in 2026, especially bearing in mind how much it costs. What's happening?

  • HatedDesign
    Hated Designs (Jamie) (@HatedDesign) reported

    @Afctopgooner @virginmedia mines out and the sites only telling me "We can’t connect to the broadband kit in your home" rather than telling me if theres an issue or not

  • BoshBoom
    Here Comes ⓣhe Boom (@BoshBoom) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Virgin are truly awful. I never sent my kit back. They did bugger all about it

  • maatmouse
    Michelle L-Jones (@maatmouse) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Never bothered. Just stuck with BT. Expensive but not a bad service

  • duckterwhoo
    Duckterwhoo (@duckterwhoo) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Not had a single issue and been a customer for 10 years. And I get 1gb line which is full fiber no issues.

  • BillKilvington
    Bill Kilvington 💙 FCODP, FRCA (@BillKilvington) reported

    @virginmedia This isn't working is it. Asking if I'm available 'now' to answer security questions, when I respond yes you didn't get back to me for 3 hours. When, oddly I was no longer available. Very poor.

  • Jodie20
    Jodie Sinyor (@Jodie20) reported

    @virginmedia another let down. Waiting 5 hours for an engineer only to be told he’s rescheduled. I’ve taken a half day off work. Dreadful customer service.

  • Paul_Vine1
    Paul Vine (@Paul_Vine1) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Horrific company. So disappointed since we joined them in December. So many broken promises.

  • Murxdkhxn
    Murad (@Murxdkhxn) reported

    @virginmedia so I’ve had a total loss of connection. An engineer came to my property and said the issues are with the wires from the main leads which are on another street that leads to my property. How can this issue be resolved asap?
