    @virginmedia Would you please give me a phone number so that I can talk to a human being about a technical problem rather than wasting my life listening to a automated telephone

  • JobbyOvy
    Jon Bond (@JobbyOvy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    Phoned @virginmedia tonight to cancel, as my price was going to £74 from £55 a month. Best they could offer was £60 a month even though as a new customer it is currently £50 a month! I was told if they offered their current customers those prices, they’d go out of business...

    @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?

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

    @virginmedia Virgin Broadband / WiFi not working again this morning RG14 6xx Newbury. service line and app say no issues. Please resolve ASAP. We need working WiFi and not rely on 4G.

    @virginmedia I would really appreciate a phone call from yourselves to resolve an issue that is becoming frustrating to which my wife can not continue to work from home 😡😡

  • 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.

    . Why have you hung up on be after being on hold after 40 minutes. Your customer service is an absolute disgrace. You should be ashamed. @virginmedia

    @DaddyHoggy @virginmedia This is terrible!!!

  • Gazimoff
    Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

  • TropicKarenB

    @virginmedia No broadband service in RG14 and your service status checker isn't working. Is there a know issue? #virginmedia

  • pilot_paul
    Pilot_Paul (@pilot_paul) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @ianmills99 @virginmedia No internet in RG21 either. Cannot even get on to the service page on my mobile

  • 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

    Chloe (@Chloe1seymour) reported from Basingstoke, England

    Trust @virginmedia to go down🤬

  • TheTomothy
    Tom Hogan (@TheTomothy) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia better have a good explanation for this but likely this will never be answered and all my years of bills and loyalty mean absolutely sod all. @bt_uk and @SkyHelpTeam Any good deals on broadband? And can you promise you wont vandalise my home & connection randomly?

  • 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

  • i96jms
    Jane (@i96jms) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

  • 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

  • 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.

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia I can't stand virgin I will not be renewing that contract November **** that. I dont pay failure

  • stephenm68
    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @alan_reddish @virginmedia Day 34 here. And no proper answers such as whether any engineers have actually been out to try to fix things. Just stock answers from the @virginmedia script.

  • HNMZY16
    Harry M (@HNMZY16) reported

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia It's not Virgin Media themselves that do this btw. Some outside leaflet drop company gets hired to do it and they don't give a **** where they put that leaflet.

    sarah (@Mears1Sarah) reported

    @DAZNBoxing Not working in @virginmedia

  • xhatne
    mmhmm (@xhatne) reported

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia Easy solution here, someone should invent a method to get the leaflet through the door, so it ends up in the house, but passers by can't see it so it isn't obvious that nobody is home.

  • JanetsEscapades
    Escape to the Garden (@JanetsEscapades) reported

    @virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!

  • wolve585
    Craig (@wolve585) reported

    What a joke @virginmedia are! 2 weeks, twice "the system isn't working", 3 times been promised call backs to sort the account of my dad who has passed away and nothing! As if its not a hard enough time as it is! I was going to keep the account but this has made me want to cancel!

  • MasterRoshi1667
    Master Roshi (@MasterRoshi1667) reported

    @MelJanie @virginmedia They really are a pack of useless *****. Typical VM. Takes your money and a shite service. We all accept it anyway because they are allowed to get away with it. It doesn’t pay to be loyal any more.

  • scouse9000
    Darren (Dazza) (@scouse9000) reported

    @CheekyVic @virginmedia Yes I would totally agree with that! I had to get in touch with one of the directors to sort my account out! She waved the massive bill if I dropped my complaint!! We had closed the account 5 months before that! Shocking customer service!!
