Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

TheBosz (@kolapoagunbiade) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Unfortunately, you dont have a ticketing system or cobtact email to track issues, rather a phone system that requires you to wait forever to get through to an agent. A/c number: 095063606. I was charged x2.5 of what i was tp pay.

Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, EnglandEnded up just reconnecting my TP Link router, it seems the problems were with my Hub 5 because everything seems to be working fine now. Not great @virginmedia
-
Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England@virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!
-
Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM
-
LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England@virginmedia Everything is running fine then my devices can’t connect. It takes me switching the router off at the wall and on again for the connection to reestablish itself. First world problems but it’s a pain when I’m working upstairs and the router is downstairs. And it should just work!

Tim Hazelwood (@timhazelwood2) reported from Bewdley, England@virginmedia my dad is a pensioner who has had no TV service for more than a month. We have called numerous times and not had resolution. Can someone please contact me to help sort this out
-
Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia But when a contract is agreed like a mortgage or a fixed energy deal surely the agreement should last the full term. I’ve had issues since September & been told I can’t leave due to being under a contract so why should my costs go up when I’ve got an agreement in place until Dec

Pretentious Opinions (@OpiniatedOne1) reported from Walsall Wood, England@virginmedia its nice you’re offering new customers ridiculously cheap deals but charging prices through the roof for an inferior service for a customer of nearly 20 years #CostOfLivingCrisis

hayley chapman (@haychapperz) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia what is going on B31 5 still without Broadband & TV from 11am and now being told fix is 12pm tomorrow. I have been unable to work all day & now problem is going in to tomorrow. This is unacceptable & I hope refunds for loss of service will be applied to all accounts.

Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England@virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL
-
Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England@virginmedia Right then fools. How many times do I need to contact you to tell you how bad our internet is? I am so fed up with this service and wouldn't recommend you to my worst enemy. I cant wait to get service from someone reliable. Clowns

Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reportedBy December 2025 @virginmedia ongoing service monitoring determined I needed a free hub to stabilise connection. Lost track of how often internet has gone down for few minutes or so then come back. However, in last month it has been out for hours 3 times. 2/?

Joe Duley American voiceover person (@Americanvoiceo1) reported@virginmedia @virginmedia AGAIN! All services-completely out! No explanation (although app says 'everything is fine') It's deceitful info. No BB OR phone. CANNOT ring customer service-at all. Now my life's mission is to escalate w/ CISAS because it's costing me financially/professionally. SMH
-
Jase Whelan (@WiJayWhelan) reported@virginmedia I have! still no Wifi 😡 day 3 , still no sign of any engineers who are apparently ' working to resolve the complex issue'?
-
Wingssherpa (@WingsSherpa) reported@VirginMedia_TV Shouldn’t it be ‘heavy entertainment’? I’ll look forward to that on Virgin Media Player. Actually, no I won’t because it never puts anything on there for UK viewers.
-
Iain Sykes (@iainsykes2014) reported@virginmedia appalling service, since I logged a complaint over a week ago, no one has responded at all. I even messaged you via X and the conversation on your side has run dry.
-
Dogred (@PaulBen29353194) reported@biggle1908 Virgin media will be very helpful when you want to join but you’ll regret it when there’s a problem or you want to leave, their customer service is probably one of the worst in the industry imo.

sirkeirstalin (@stalinoverlord) reported@biggle1908 I've been with Virgin Media since they were called NTL. I did switch to BT for a spell, but the speed was **** in comparison; I soon went back to Virgin Media. This is just for the internet, though.
