    @virginmedia Still here waiting for the restoration of the internet service I pay you to provide.

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do really get fed up with VirginMedias poor service and platitudes. The speed on my internet connection is down less than 56kb, but your Helpdesk technicians consider this to be a problem

  • Matthew56242945
    Matthew Cooper (@Matthew56242945) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Virgin Media fixed the phone issue, a local fault, so I rang Royal Mail to get my money back. The phone went out again during the call. If I was a person with anxiety and depression issues this might be a major problem. Oh wait, I am a person.....

    @virginmedia hello, I'm having an issue signing into my online account, I've tried resetting my password and have entered the correct information multiple times, it says that the site doesn't recognise my account/password. Can you please advise?

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I have been offered the opportunity to complain, but as a customer of 20+ years I am aware complaints tend to get ignored. At its worst speed was down to 0.5Mega bits per second ... At its best (for 20 minutes or so) maybe 150Mega bits per second. Paying for 200Mbps .....

    @virginmedia No one has replied to the text. Spent hours on it ourselves and Googled the problem. Virgin media were no help at all.

  • jaynlaura
    Jay (@jaynlaura) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia currently been sat hold for 20 mins trying to help my gran as your team have failed in their service for her. She is currently without working services and a 20 minute wait on the phone is not acceptable

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia being shifted from technician to technician to technician.....no resolution ...on the phone for nearly an hour

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia That’s not true that why they now allow calls to other urgent services for priority vulnerable customers such as gas, water electric police and medical urgent but not emergency numbers the trouble is this doesn’t allow calls to hone help and life lines though they should!

  • Hannie02Allen
    Hannah Allen (@Hannie02Allen) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Wow 😮 so trying to sort out my @virginmedia account due to pad day date has changed and I get the phone put down on me I was angry before the call started as @virginmedia wont listen to us now I’m pissed. #sortyourselvesoutvirginmedia #poorcustomerservice #hangupkings

  • JamesAlexKirby
    James Alexander Kirby (@JamesAlexKirby) reported from Skellingthorpe, England

    @AndyPearson68 @helgy2 @NEZZY80 @virginmedia @SkyUK @btsportfootball going tomorrow. £22 a month and only had for the @premierleague Got to pay £64 for to cancel contract early. Bastards.

  • obendorf
    Simon Obendorf (@obendorf) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia No. Trying to upgrade to a faster broadband-only plan. Chat can’t do it because cancelling the landline I don’t use is heretical. Fastest broadband speeds require me to take a SIM I don’t want or need. Online tries to push a TV service. No one listens. Customer fumes.

  • RichardFarrell8
    Richard Farrell (@RichardFarrell8) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Looking for advice. Trying to cancel @virginmedia as they keep saying I owe them £168 but they should have credited me £70 but they have debited me instead. Made several calls over the past weeks to no joy. Logged a formal complaint to no avail. Advice is much appreciated 🤯

  • richardfox92
    Richard Fox (@richardfox92) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia why is my speed down from 500 Mbs to 92.8 when your system states nothing wrong in my area 🤬

  • Clive_Burt
    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I have that already, and the issue exists in the middle floor, which is why I want to get a booster for that floor, and also enable my laptop to plugged in on that floor, in the office that I have

  • lightpro
    Paul Saxby (@lightpro) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia I know you had to close most of your call centres but why couldn’t your staff work from home, like the rest of us. Your comms are crap... just saying..

  • SkyAlicry
    AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t know I could use the forums to terminate my contract.

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    A recorded voice saying sorry only calls to an emergency number are allowed is not much help of your lying on the floor only able to press your emergency lanyard! @virginmedia urgent training is required to ensure people aren’t left in this situation. #unacceptable #LivesAtRisk

    Working from home in TW1 and my Virgin Media internet has been down for 2 days. I literally can’t do my job. It’s 2026 and I’m still dealing with outages lasting this long. Completely unacceptable. @virginmedia

  • Keith_Bredrin
    Keith (@Keith_Bredrin) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sky don't answer the phone when you want to cancel. Their sales team claim they can't put you through either. Cretins.

  • futbolsayilari
    Yozgat (@futbolsayilari) reported

    @virginmedia @seccadelikbaby Not Gizëm, it is Gizem, she is a show-off, and dont fix her Internet, I dont think she is doing sth important with it. Cheers.

  • Old_Motherduck
    Old Motherduck (@Old_Motherduck) reported

    @virginmedia @JonStone101 no we've had this before many times, only when you threaten to leave do you get transferred to someone who speaks english, they obviously get paid more to snag a customer than the english speaking

  • robhjones
    Rob Jones (@robhjones) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve only used iplayer since changing but it’s impossible to watch anything so there’s obviously some connection problem and extremely annoying as its in the evening when we watch

  • AppleTerence
    Taz (@AppleTerence) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Believe Virgin are just a bad after the initial contract.

  • annelilort
    Anneli Lort (@annelilort) reported

    @JonStone101 @virginmedia Exactly the same with sky. I cancel my subscription every year before they put the prices up and a week later I get a call from the retention team offering me a deal at half the price. Madness.

  • IanLewis299
    Ian Lewis (@IanLewis299) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry, I've worded that badly. I meant I didn't even want to raise a complaint. I told them not to raise it, and they have done anyway, and resolved it. They also told me not to fill in the survey as my issue (not a complaint!) isn't yet resolved so it wouldn't look bad on them!

  • ColinFenn45
    Colin Fenn (@ColinFenn45) reported

    @virginmedia I forgot to mention, during these low signal periods, when using okla speed checker download speed can be as low as 8mbps and upload often a little higher. Using the website fault checker does not register any problems , Colin.
