    @virginmedia Hi, following on from the resolution of the issue outlined above. My dad has received a full bill despite being assured by every employee we have spoken to that he wouldn't be charged for the period he was without service (more than two months). Please advise

    Rubbish network is @virginmedia can't recommend to anyone one of the worst customer service

    @virginmedia Yes, and every-time it says no issue, when there clearly is! It interferes with everything, the hive, the tv everything! Really considering going elsewhere.

    @Tilton247 @virginmedia I had the same for 2 years. Constantly disconnecting on a daily basis . Changed the Hub and it worked straight away. No issues since. Good luck getting a new hub off them though.

    @virginmedia business installation, been given 6 dates since 17th January. 4 no show or wrong booked, 2 attendance but not equipped to extend installation from 1sf floor to 2nd. even billed for a service which is not even installed yet. Nightmare #virginmedia #broadband

    @virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.

  • Stephen12857059
    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

  • ReissOmari
    Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, England

    Mad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps a month for @virginmedia for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area??

  • SusieWJr
    Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Himley, England

    @virginmedia @WaynesWorld20_ How many areas have this 'intermittent' loss of service? O have it in DY6 too.

  • tarun65170952
    tarun (@tarun65170952) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Im getting slow speeds on my broadband. My package is volt and which should be 250mbs im getting less that half of that. Please ask your team to look into this

    @virginmedia Async live chat (WhatsApp) sucks as you let me text you with a problem, let it sit for hours, then close it down if I don’t reply within 5 mins and repeat. I’ll just ignore all the comms.

  • BrianMCape
    Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Quite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor

  • ________Danny
    Satish Danny Paul (@________Danny) reported from West Bromwich, England

  • stumccullagh

    Any news on outages in B37? Also how do I get compensation for loss of svcs (inc my TV not working properly since September) @virginmedia

  • redron1975
    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia guess what ********* your system is down again. Useless pricks.

  • PolymathTim
    SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Zero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

  • BeardPunk
    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • redron1975
    Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia so what crap excuse u got today for us in the ws10 area? Internet down again. Honestly if you were a guard dog nothing would be safe. Even less reliable than the weather forecast.

    Fed up of these “intermittent” problems with my @virginmedia broadband.

    @virginmedia your customer service agents on chat are utter crap. Taking 5 mins to reply to every response. Incompetent!

  • TheHarvDawg72
    Red Hand Rohl (@TheHarvDawg72) reported

    8 hours worth of calls and 7 hours sitting on the live chat with virgin media and I haven’t spoken to a single British person 🤯 Genuinely the worst customer service Ave ever had in my life btw

  • simplynorwegian
    Simply Norwegian (@simplynorwegian) reported

    @virginmedia I need some help resolving an unauthorised account creation, outstanding unlawful charges and failure to resolve despite numerous calls and written correspondence dating back to October 2025. What number can I call to speak to someone with authority to end this??

  • loldiplo
    Diplo (@loldiplo) reported

    @virginmedia Already got one booked in. I will be complaining however as you already are charging a substantial amount for a service you’re clearly incapable of providing.

  • kevinclarknw
    Kevin Clark (@kevinclarknw) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. There are now TWO issues, one of which is not expected to be fixed until Wednesday. Ssevice has been out since Friday.

  • NadineD_G
    Nadine_CCN (@NadineD_G) reported

    @virginmedia more than 24 hours of no internet service in the E4 area. I’m seeing people saying that this has gone on for days with them. How can we confirm that our service will be up and running by the suggested time? I have work to do and this is really causing a delay.

  • BenChubb4
    Ben C (@BenChubb4) reported

    Hey @virginmedia still 2hrs and 20 mins remaining to call me like you said you would to update/fix the fact that I’ve had no email access on any device for 11 days. Only 2 days over your last SLA. P.s. Thanks m not available to speak to Saturday, Sunday Monday

  • PeteBradders
    Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported

    @virginmedia I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!

    iptv smarter pro (@kai491435014910) reported

    Tired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV offers: * 300,000+ live channels * 65,000+ VODs * PPV events

  • ldp17470
    LoobyLou1970 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@ldp17470) reported

    @virginmedia do you honestly expect customers to stay with you when you're gonna increase my package by £75 a month! I'm now switching to @skytv for the same package plus Disney+ for a cost of £81 a month. The best your lot could bring it down to was £128 Bye 👋🏼 #RipOff
