    @virginmedia Tbh just looking in to cancelling the current package, nothing but ongoing problems with Virgin Media and impossible to talk to someone on the phone without going on hold for hours and even they they can’t resolve issues. Issues stemming back 5years now! 😠

    @virginmedia I've been in an online chat for nearly 2 hours today just to arrange transfer of services to my new house. I've led the conversation entirely. I'm not even going to report the CMs identity. Just wanted you to know how bad the experience was.

  • TMFeeG
    THE FEE MG! 👩🏻 (@TMFeeG) reported from Maidstone, England

    @virginmedia No he is NOT! I have called and logged the complaint. Your rep who came to the door around an hour ago was extremely rude. I am utterly disgusted that he could treat an elderly partially deaf gentleman this way. Had I not witnessed it for myself I may not have believed it.

    Why is it every companies customer service line is so crap and does not want to help in any way shape or form #curryspcworld #virginmedia @BBCWatchdog

  • heyitsant
    Antony Collett (@heyitsant) reported from Maidstone, England

    Hey @virginmedia, why is my issue still not resolved? I've spoken to several agents over the past 2-3weeks, all of whom said it was sorted. I have an open IT ticket and this is the reference number P010931869 .

    @virginmedia Can you tell me how to correct the address on my own! Apparently it’s been incorrect for the 4 years we’ve had your service!

    @virginmedia There isn’t internet down time the box has stopped working, they can’t get a new box out here till mid week, with a lot of people working from home you think you’d have next day delivery or something, bad enough we can’t have a engineer out to help

    @SaxonKate @virginmedia Ditto with Virgin and the booster and we still have issues.

    @virginmedia Third Superhub and it's just as unreliable as the previous two. Frequently has to be reset. Slow speeds, unstable wifi. When are you going to replace it with decent hardware?

    Virgin Media was fined a record £28 million by the UK communications regulator, Ofcom, on July 8, 2026, for using deliberate tactics to trap customers trying to cancel their broadband, landline, or pay-TV services #News

    Steven Porter (@ste_porter) reported

    @virginmedia I've resigned up for a new 24 month contract on 10th June (contract expiring 5th july). And when I now log in you tell me my contract has expired. Always find your customer services so bad. Please fix - I have my order confirmation and contract details.

  • Coleman48J
    john (@Coleman48J) reported

    Ofcom has fined Virgin Media a record £28 million for repeatedly making it difficult for customers to cancel their contracts. The regulator found the company used "deliberate" tactics to delay or block millions of customer cancellations.

  • CBTwizard
    Shelton (@CBTwizard) reported

    Good @Ofcom 28 million fined to the parasites that are Virgin Media. Good. I have been victim to this horrible pass on pass on (6+ hours on the phone) department to department and back to start again, as well as a 2 year new contract without my consent (early termination £500 being chased for, after 2000+ disconnections in a month, email proof, text proof, delayed line fixes) list goes on. Parasites, charging elderly people £70+ for like 100mb Maybe @MartinSLewis applied some well deserved pressure. If I'm not mistaken @dshensmith had issues too.

  • ainm_gan5505
    GanAinm (@ainm_gan5505) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin Media is not actually Virgin, it’s a ****** American company called Liberty with a license to use the Virgin Media branding. The real Virgin company should take the license off them for driving the name through the ****.

  • iadnan9
    Addy (@iadnan9) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Media fined £28m over 'deliberately dropping calls' and putting people on hold 'for no reason' Customers trying to cancel or switch were routinely put through the wringer by Virgin's customer service agents, an investigation by the regulator has found.
