    @virginmedia How can we get money back from this issue or will you credit all the customers who got virgin tv etc due to what happened

  • FragileCreature
    Fragile Creatures (@FragileCreature) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia We already know there aren't problems in the area. I'm complaining about a lack of customer support staff and you send us to an automated line! Ridiculous.

  • garypleece

    @virginmedia Hi, the interruption is ongoing so I’m guessing we have faulty equipment? When I go onto the website it tells me to ‘reset’ which I do and it works for a while then goes wrong again. Can we sort a new router? Is that the issue?

  • 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.

    @virginmedia BN1 6FN - I’ve done the checks through your app and says no issue?

    3/4 T&Cs: Moving home outside of or within the Virgin Media Network service area “If you move within our service area, we cannot guarantee to provide you services, if we are unable to provide services, then you can cancel and you will not need to pay an early disconnection fee”

    @virginmedia Tried it several times - it says there are no issues. Our phone can’t ring out, constant sound of a message being there (intermittent beep) but nothing happens when trying to use it. People can’t hear us when we answer. Bought brand new phones and still the same.

  • dizzymabil
    ydnam (@dizzymabil) reported from Sompting, England

    @virginmedia Seems its all over the area. Dozens of posts on local SM pages, people without service since late last night. Can't wait to change providers, to a company that actually supply what I pay for

    @virginmedia Andy has now told me that the work was never rescheduled for today. This really isn’t very good.

    @virginmedia I’ve been promised a call back from Virgin media 6 or 7 times in the last 6 days No one called me back I was told by Virgin Media to raise a complaint, so I did. The lady who took my complaint promised to call me back yesterday She didn’t Worst customer service

    @lufc1990 @virginmedia I sat down to catch up on Sky Sports News while I eat my lunch - telly's not working!!

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

    @virginmedia Called and no issues. It has to be equipment, right? There’s an option to ‘test hub’ on that link but it just goes to an invalid page. I’ve been patient for a few weeks now, but I’m finding it hard to remain so! Trying to work like this is impossible

    @virginmedia getting 17gb download speed on 100gb service ??? Surely this isn't correct I should of stated with sky

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

    @virginmedia Did you read the message, I don't want to call or use whats app ad uve spent far too long doing this already. So I'll have to complain in writing then it seems. Shocking service yet again you do not read whta a customer is saying.

  • FragileCreature
    Fragile Creatures (@FragileCreature) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It's your customer service that isn't working. And our broadband router.

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

    @virginmedia getting somewhat irked at the constant failure in the delivery of your services. And please don't apologise, it won't fix the broadband issue. You are now costing me money. This is not ideal. It's time for me to find a company that can deliver reliable broadband.

  • FragileCreature
    Fragile Creatures (@FragileCreature) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    I've been waiting 2+ hours for a response over WhatsApp from @virginmedia 3 hours since first trying to reach them with Broadband down. Can't work, starting to think they just don't employ any staff. Second time I've had negligent service from them. Looking elsewhere asap.

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

    @virginmedia No. Your staff don’t respond to emails when they come back on shift. I’d like to raise a complaint please. Please escalate this to your supervisor if this is something you can’t do. I’ve been waiting since 14th December. Do you feel this is acceptable customer service?

    (((Tim from Radio Clash))) 🌈 🏳️‍🌈💛🤍💜🖤 (@radioclashblog) reported

    Sadly we are still last mile copper here, no Community/Open Reach fibre yet but we do have Virgin Media (old cable)... Yes I know...but I suspect support will be as **** like nearly all of them now....if Plusnet wasn't dropping phones and Zen wasn't hyper expensive I'd use them.

  • idczn
    D (@idczn) reported

    The only contract I ever signed with Virgin Media was in 2018, and it continues to this day. I have never changed or upgraded it; I only occasionally tried to report home network connection issues. It turns out that in November 2024, a two-year contract was accepted, which I only found out about in 2025 when I wanted to cancel their services. I couldn't leave them XD However, checking who did this on my behalf and when (because it certainly wasn't me) was impossible, as I had no way to log into my Virgin account Now I cansee- the accepted contract has different number? There is no any signature of mine- and information that was sent to e-mail: back then controlled by hacker

    @virginmedia Please can u let me know if Virgin emails are down? I can’t log into my account. I get this: “Your Virgin Media Mail account is currently unavailable. This is either because your Virgin Media Mail account is locked, or because you don’t have an active account with us
