Tracy (@Tracy15558923) reported@JaneVCarroll @virginmedia I agree Jane weve been with Virgin Media years always had good customer service always helpful when you ring them too
-
Reform UK - Lincoln Branch (@ReformUKLincoln) reported@Benleo Just look at @Trustpilot reviews. Almost impossible to cancel an @virginmedia contract. Sent all evidence to Ombudsman, got written apology and £150.
-
Stew G no23 (@StewartGar49182) reported@virginmedia They aren't recently issues they are current issues is BB being throttled back? All i get from virgin is there's no problems in the network so why is it so slow?
-
D (@idczn) reportedThe 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

Dylan Brown (@DillB1976) reported@virginmedia @luvshinobi No you wont, you have constantly ignored my messages regarding my issue
-
HRCastle (@hrcastle) reported@virginmedia Since 10am I have been trying to speak to someone to see if there is a problem in my area, or whether I need an engineer out. I have had phone calls from the complaints department, but still, no answer. Why won’t you confirm this?
-
Helkhiana (@helkhiana) reported@saltyy_savage I had Virgin media for years and only issues and expensive contracts. I am on Plusnet right now £43/46 for 900mb with 0 problems and uk customer services. They do £3 increase yearly and I am curious to see my first contract end what I'll get. Bet still better than virgin

Nicola Savory (@nicsavo83) reported@virginmedia how can I arrange a refund for lack of service? BB & TV down for nearly 24hrs, your call centre staff have been horrendous to deal with and I am sat inside on the best day of the year so far, awaiting an engineer - with zero confidence that they’ll actually arrive!
