-
𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕋𝕐𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕊ℍ (@MATTYB00SH) reported from Burnley, England@virginmedia Yes it works on my phone browser, but not on laptop, so I'll just continue using that method, thanks. One more question; Why do your customer support agents ask for a security password that I use when speaking to an agent, despite being a new customer and haven't set this up yet
-
Tony Mulgrew (@cheftonymulgrew) reported from Ripponden, England@SheilaDillon @virginmedia Vodafone not much better waited 6 weeks to have my issue sorted. Only interested in profit not the customers
-
Marsoma (@Marsoma) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia Yes I’ve done all that. There was an issue in the post code but it says it’s sorted now, but it’s not. Still nothing at all!
-
Kevin Kitten (@LovecloughKev) reported from Rawtenstall, England@virginmedia Why is your WhatsApp chat so rubbish for the 4th time i have been kicked off. Terrible service
-
Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England@virginmedia Came back on early hours this morning but it's been awful for a while, same as the rest of my family I'll be leaving without a cancellation fee tomorrow
-
Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Rawtenstall, England@Craig273 @virginmedia No. I just want to cancel sky sports as for £31.75 a month I don’t get the use out of it. I was lied to saying it would affect my package discount. I already get BT sport for free and if Amazon will be streaming more it’s pointless
-
Cath Buchanan (@CathBuchanan80) reported from Nelson, EnglandReckon its #virginmedia with the issue, its all the channels not just football #skysports
-
RC (@ryanchapmanx) reported from Blackburn, England@geewelchx @virginmedia Mate I was on phone for a hour told them to shove their internet up their ass and going elsewhere Lmao their customer service is shocking so I did it back
-
Scott Nelson (@ScottShaqNelson) reported from Keighley, England@virginmedia problems with my router and your tech help told me the cables must have come loose. I didn’t touch or move the router or the cables and your help got it back on by telling me that me tightening it resolved it. I never touched it. can’t you admit the router is faulty
-
Wes Odell (@wesleyjodell) reported from Rawtenstall, England@PaddyTheBaddy @virginmedia Agreed. It’s terrible. Il be changing when my contract is up
-
liquidBorn (@liquidborn) reported from Burnley, England@virginmedia broadband has just gone down in BB12, I work completely from home so this is extremely frustrating for me. Please help. Router has been restarted twice.
-
Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England@virginmedia when is someone going to ring us back after the failure to apply the package to our account we sorted on the phone yet still hasn’t changed or a manager ringing back to deal with the complaint. Shocking services but soon quick to mailing bills out!
-
James Swinburne (@jaswinburne1) reported from Silsden, England@virginmedia It’s technical issues with the broadband and network stability issues. No one wants to help, I’ve spoken to 3 technicians and no one has offered a resolution. Joke
-
𝔸𝕓𝕦𝕝|𝕊𝕙𝕖𝕝𝕓𝕪 (@IamAbulShelby) reported from Burnley, England@virginmedia @BexInfante mine is now not working at all
-

-
☺️ (@Rebecccakate) reported from Great Harwood, England@virginmedia £150 a month and the internet doesn’t even work. Amazing. Can’t wait to cancel that.
-
Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, EnglandCracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks! And you can book a slot to fix it Why not invest your advertising budget in stopping it from breaking? Not to be smug but (touch wood) @virginmedia has never conked out!
-
strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?
-
patricia foy (@PattipooFoy) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia No TV from 23rd December till 29th! Got a new box fitted, okay for about a week then started playing up again! Spent 3 hours on the phone Thursday night trying to sort to no avail...need an engineer to come out again...but no idea how to arrange!! Terrible service 😑
-
Flying Officer O’Connor🇬🇧 (@seanyseanysaeny) reported from Silsden, England@virginmedia Yes, it’s rubbish. The service you provide is really poor. All you ever get told to do is switch of and reboot. Never works.

-
mec337 (@mec337) reported@virginmedia I’m busy composing an email for ofcom about how I’m forced to pay for a phone service to be able to have a package that’s overpriced. Yet when I actually want to use it, it’s broken- repeatedly. Then forced to go through stupid phone menus and wait >30 mins
-
Shaun (@shauny67) reported@virginmedia @kimtaylor18 In 2026 I cannot understand why people want to pay for a TV service that you can subscribe to yourself. I have Virgin 1Gb then I subscribe to Netflix Amazon Prime & Disney, when it's F1 season I subscribe to Sky sports but I can cancel when I want at no extra charge
-
Gregor McAbery (@GregorMcAbery) reported@rpd_pacer @virginmedia Sad rule applies, comms companies are truly awful at comms and fixing stuff.
-
Jade Fairclough (@_jadebrady) reported@virginmedia down for 9 hours now, only fixed in 24 - 48 hours. In today’s world where everything relies on internet this is really appalling service. If you had prior warning there was an outage expected you can prepare but to have it off for so long is ridiculous
-
Gen X (@trail_71) reported@virginmedia It says there’s a fault but hoping to fix by May 18th 🤷 I’ve rebooted the box and it seems fine now
-
Dylan Brown (@DillB1976) reported@virginmedia @ShirleySarah70 You dont reply to messages, you have not responded to me for 4 hours on an issue that is not resolved
-
Just D. (@DuggyStand) reported@virginmedia Thanks guys. Hes okay. But I think he wants to cancel his Sky Sports subscription now That correct @TruthTalkingMav ?
-
Rachael. - Whimsical Art 7🌞 (@Art71Rachael) reported@virginmedia You’ve basically told me what I’ve told you! I wanted to know what the problem is? And why it hasn’t been fixed yet! Not to check the service status which I have already done 😖😡
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported@virginmedia Still no refund though! Seems like what you said about registering an outage (which I did on the website) - and my in-law's registered as well, resulted in nothing being refunded to either. When should this be expected?
-
Paul Moore - Security Consultant (@Paul_Reviews) reportedDone with @virginmedia 3 times I've requested Comex come out and dig up the drive to bury their own cable which wasn't installed correctly. 3 times they've sent a level 1 tech with a shovel, who can't do the job. Contract cancelled. I might return if they ever decide to put customer services back in the UK - preferably with someone who understands plain English. #hopeless
