    @SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?

    Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia can you help? We’ve been struggling with internet for last 3 weeks. Now dropping on daily basis and devices not connecting. Spent 1.5hrs talking on Thurs... was promised a call back yesterday but received nothing and still major issues. Can someone pls call?

  • SparkleEyedGirl
    Nicola (@SparkleEyedGirl) reported from Newbury, England

    @virginmedia I have a security issue with my router, I cannot login in or change password as somebody else is logged in. I have tried repeatedly over the last few days to contact you. We have 2 vulnerable adults in the house and need to sort this ASAP!

  • pBullox
    Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia moved house today supposed to have been reconnected. You have a problem, known about for days but arrive and say not today mate! I gotta go to Vodafone now for data. After 20 years, it’s like my wife left me...

    Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

  • drewy__
    Jez (@drewy__) reported from Whitchurch, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to contact via calling the number but I can’t get through as I’m a new customer wanting to join!

    @virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

    @virginmedia Already checked that, no issues apparently..

  • skearney7
    Stuart Kearney (@skearney7) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

  • MatildaDr
    Joanne Wells (@MatildaDr) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

  • AndyOramEmax
    Andy Oram (@AndyOramEmax) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Great customer service!! NOT🤬. Returning customer and you told us it would work but doesn’t because we don’t have a face plate miss selling comes to mind!!

  • SimonMiller52
    Simon Miller (@SimonMiller52) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

    Went to @virginmedia online support last night - ran their automated test tool & identified a problem somewhere our end. Offered to request an engineer visit...

  • JGrenvillewood
    Joshua Grenville-Wood (@JGrenvillewood) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia fix your WiFi services. Can’t even get the tv to connect let alone a phone or a laptop. Terrible WiFi

  • CathyTVNews
    Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, England

    What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

  • draloksharma74
    Alok Sharma (@draloksharma74) reported from Oakley, England

    @virginmedia we are without internet now for over a day. No text updates despite registering what can be done about such poor service

  • lissaburns
    Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @tonight__we_fly @virginmedia Exactly this 👆🏻... at least long serving customers are apparently all treated equally... with poor service 😭

  • Loafite
    Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective

  • pBullox
    Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

    @virginmedia I want a call from a manager ASAP as I am sick of all your empty promises and poor customer journey. I've been trying to get this resolved the past 3 weeks!!!

  • fludgate1
    Callum Fludgate (@fludgate1) reported

    @virginmedia How am I meant to get on the page when I have no internet access by phone or tv? That’s my problem my phone gone down as well.. I’m only using my dad’s internet atm !!

  • fergal_hickey
    Fergal Hickey (@fergal_hickey) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Shocking Virgin Media Mobile. Can’t receive calls from Vodafone numbers for 6wks now. Now told it’s a widespread problem after being fobbed off for a month. Not good enough - VM should have been honest with subscribers and advised them but chose deceit instead

  • ross_biagini
    London leaver (@ross_biagini) reported

    @virginmedia 2 Outages Identified & raised but 2nd one is not expected to be resolved until 3/6/26 @ 9.06 That will be at least 3 full days of outage

  • CmucG
    Chris McGregor (@CmucG) reported

    @virginmedia So after the DM discussion there is still no resolution to the package I pay for not being fully available. Just being told to be patient! The compensation offered for not getting the full package I'm paying for is insulting. Not a great way to treat new customers.

  • burchett84
    Jim_Bo (@burchett84) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, can someone please help regarding a bill please

  • Louiseboxall
    Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported

    @virginmedia M43 area…. error code W02…. Did what virgin suggested and just blank channels….. this is getting ridiculous….. can’t watch tv when I’m sure Virgin will want payment for a service my parents can’t access half the month….

  • SarahDruscilla
    Sarah Loughran (@SarahDruscilla) reported

    @O2 since joining virgin media the coverage in Milton Keynes is terrible. I’m almost always on 1 bar. You’ve gone from being the best signal in the area to probably the worst.

  • andyg81

    @virginmedia yet another broadband fault in de7 area ! Utter joke ….. time to cancel everything and move away after 20 years of being a customer

    @Lulette5772 @virginmedia Very bad @virginmedia The opposite of customer centric (customer abusive ?)
