    @virginmedia can you help please we’ve just been passed around to 4 different people and they hung up on us.

    @Doddstar79 @virginmedia Their service seems to be particularly bad in recent weeks...

  • ChrisLonelyguy
    Christopher Hallick (@ChrisLonelyguy) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Come on @virginmedia I'm again being plagued by #fake #scam #fraud calls on landline. I'm not registered anywhere and on blocked lists. There's auto diallers i believe but operators should be cracking down on this.

    @virginmedia The wifi in my house is awful despite having 500mb broadband with you

  • TeresaBudworth
    Teresa Budworth (@TeresaBudworth) reported from Quorn, England

    52 minutes and two escalations for @virginmedia call centre to agree the diagnosis I’d already made. ‘Your “intelligent” booster pod is not working. A new one will be with you in 3-5 working days’ No wifi upstairs for a week is unacceptable

  • JessLeighA
    Jess Adams (@JessLeighA) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @Jake_BHughes @virginmedia apparently we have a blockage where they need to connect us, which is what we would need fixing by thursday. being that unreliable we decided to cancel everything with them fully. a shame because what they offered was great. customer service department is not easy to get round 😭

  • yogi7592
    Yv (@yogi7592) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia been on live chat hold for nearly 30 minutes and it’s still saying 45 minutes wait as it did at the start. Not very good customer service since pandemic.

  • Jim_Hulbert
    Jim Hulbert (@Jim_Hulbert) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia experiencing some WiFi issues in Leicester. No Internet despite able to connect to the network. Are there any known issues? Thanks.

  • sewychloe
    Chloë Pritchard (@sewychloe) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia my mum’s landline has a fault - no dialling tone. She’s been on hold but can’t get through to a human to report it. We have both tried to report it via her online account but cannot access it. And yes she has wiggled her sockets! Help!

  • MatthewWalne
    Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia The text service is a bot so doesn’t understand what I want. I don’t understand how posting on a community forum will help me order wifi pods. I’ve posted but just get replies from other members. I want to be able to contact someone at Virgin not other customers.

  • djstar3d
    David Johnston (@djstar3d) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Come on guys. Can you at least let me watch the MotoGP on BT sport 2? I’m pretty sure I have the rights to watch it since I watched it yesterday no problem

  • JessLeighA
    Jess Adams (@JessLeighA) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @Jake_BHughes @virginmedia we had similar issue. they came when we were on holiday, no communication. we rang, were told they were coming yesterday to connect us, they didn’t arrive. told they’re coming today, didn’t arrive. spent 2 hours on the phone cancelling and was hung up on 3 times.

    What **** is blocking my internet @virginmedia , it’s in a open space, switched it off and on, stood on one leg, got full bars but still won’t let me watch a basic YouTube video on my phone

  • worksopchap
    worksopchap (@worksopchap) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia I can’t find the last message where this thread started - I’ll go to the bot system - I’m a returning customer - need to reactivate my account etc

  • rachlb33

    Always good when @virginmedia take your internet down on a Friday to ‘improve the service’ without any warning, when you’re working from home!

  • NickFitz
    Nick Fitzsimons (@NickFitz) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @PreetBharara @ZellaQuixote Around 2009 or 2010. I had a computer with a modem that could send faxes that was just about working, and I had to get @virginmedia to send an engineer out to fix my landline. The landline broke again a month or two later and hasn’t worked since, though they still bill me for it.

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

    @virginmedia so how long have you been working to fix the red button problem?

  • harrewis
    Paul THORNE (@harrewis) reported

    @virginmedia Unacceptable…should be offering compensation to customers for failing to provide the service being paid for.

    @virginmedia Any idea when the ongoing issues with the Sky Sports X button are going to be resolved. It's been going on quite a while now.

  • Dazlerhotspur
    DazMcT (@Dazlerhotspur) reported

    @virginmedia It mentions red button service loss not complete service loss

  • pgreen83
    Paul Green (@pgreen83) reported

    @virginmedia Could you reply to my DM? Absolutely shocking service with no accountability. £120 a month for what? No service, no customer service! Potentially you are in breach of contract and now ignoring customer complaints. Not a good look this!!

  • thechr1sbird
    Chris Bird (@thechr1sbird) reported

    @DMGoodman1989 @virginmedia No shame! Mines down too

  • conjuredundead
    Conjured Undead 🧟‍♂️ (@conjuredundead) reported

    @virginmedia . Can someone please give me an update on an intermittent service issue dating back to 30/7/26? We’ve been told there’s a service cable issue but no update on a “fix” and the disruption is costing me as I can’t work from home, because broadband is unstable. Thanks.
