-
Neil evans EVO (@neilevo18781967) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia It was with regards to my services.. When I phoned about it the lack of professionalism was horrendous.. When I mentioned the lack of professionalism I was basically told what is your problem. Awful really

SBJ💙 (@SharonJukes) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandTwo days have now passed and they have heard nothing. They have no phone or internet and Dad is 80. Please can someone contact me and I will provide further details by DM. This is poor service for what you class as a vulnerable age group. I have tried to call you #virginmedia
-
James Hope (@gingerjames1990) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia Virgin Media have gone down massively! The amount they charge doesn't represent the customer experience at all!
-
Beth Emma (@beth_emma_) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, EnglandThis is ******* painful @virginmedia were in the middle of a lock down sort yourselves out 🤬
-
Shaun Mountain (@Mountain1863) reported from Biddulph, England@virginmedia Not even a DM asking for contact details to discuss further @Ofcom & @CISASUK have been informed and will be supporting with furthering my complaint. Hopefully my followers will see these tweets and avoid your black Friday sales 👌👍 even if only one person avoids the #scammers

Tim Ray (@timothyray) reported from Tean, England@Cassetteboy @virginmedia Imagine being that crap a company that you don't realise the damage you do to @virginmedia's reputation when you piss off someone with 77k Twitter followers.
-
Andy Picken (@andyvic7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@drummerwhitey @northernsky67 @virginmedia Steve it was a last resort for me but other avenues were fruitless, I ended up getting a visit from an engineer , a booster and a reduction in my tariff after I told them I’d leave , normal customer service is dreadful, keep on pushing them
-
Chris Walton (@Ohrate_Tri) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England@virginmedia how do I organise a home move service. I’ve been on hold on the online chat since yesterday teatime. No one is answering or speaking to me in there.
-
Anthony Hibbs (@HibbsA) reported from Newcastle-under-Lyme District, England@Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

-
Gizëm (@seccadelikbaby) reportedWorking from home in TW1 and my Virgin Media internet has been down for 2 days. I literally can’t do my job. It’s 2026 and I’m still dealing with outages lasting this long. Completely unacceptable. @virginmedia
-
Keith (@Keith_Bredrin) reported@gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sky don't answer the phone when you want to cancel. Their sales team claim they can't put you through either. Cretins.
-
Yozgat (@futbolsayilari) reported@virginmedia @seccadelikbaby Not Gizëm, it is Gizem, she is a show-off, and dont fix her Internet, I dont think she is doing sth important with it. Cheers.
-
Old Motherduck (@Old_Motherduck) reported@virginmedia @JonStone101 no we've had this before many times, only when you threaten to leave do you get transferred to someone who speaks english, they obviously get paid more to snag a customer than the english speaking
-
Rob Jones (@robhjones) reported@virginmedia I’ve only used iplayer since changing but it’s impossible to watch anything so there’s obviously some connection problem and extremely annoying as its in the evening when we watch
-
Taz (@AppleTerence) reported@gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Believe Virgin are just a bad after the initial contract.
-
Anneli Lort (@annelilort) reported@JonStone101 @virginmedia Exactly the same with sky. I cancel my subscription every year before they put the prices up and a week later I get a call from the retention team offering me a deal at half the price. Madness.
-
Ian Lewis (@IanLewis299) reported@virginmedia Sorry, I've worded that badly. I meant I didn't even want to raise a complaint. I told them not to raise it, and they have done anyway, and resolved it. They also told me not to fill in the survey as my issue (not a complaint!) isn't yet resolved so it wouldn't look bad on them!

Colin Fenn (@ColinFenn45) reported@virginmedia I forgot to mention, during these low signal periods, when using okla speed checker download speed can be as low as 8mbps and upload often a little higher. Using the website fault checker does not register any problems , Colin.
