Jose Carvalho (@josethepotter) reported from Hammersmith, EnglandExtremely disappointed with Virgin Media. Made a contract with them for internet for my business on the 09/09/21 and still NO INTERNET installed. Called customer service and they can’t help, call the order manger and they can’t help too. Who can Virgin? @virginmedia @Virgin
-
Hanieh Vidmar (@haniehvidmar) reported from Paddington, England@virginmedia I need to urgently speak to someone regarding an account! And the fact that you’ve non stop taken money out of the account and refuse to refund as well as cutting the service off when you’ve had payment
-
Nicky Beale (@NickyJBeale) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia not very happy with the service from Virgin Media! After looking to leave them last week they promised to improve the WiFi and install a 2nd box. Well we have never and now they want to install the 2nd box in a MONTH and a HALF! #poorservice #virginmedia

craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia F*k YOU. No wifi for a week. Waiting for a supervisor to call me back within 24 hours. FOUR DAYS Later and 2 IDIOT technicians ... cancel my service NOW. I’m moving my building Into the 22nd century. Keep playing with copper wires See ya *******
-
Al of hereford (@al_hereford) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Thank you. A call centre would have saved pain and a chat line that works would have also sufficed. Failing that a status page that works would have have helped. I still need to terminate the agreement as we are leaving the flat. No online form. Can you send me one or a link.

shoegal (@Marshall5Sharon) reported from Kensington, EnglandNo internet at all now… apparently there are a few areas with dodgy internet problems… thanks Virgin media 🤬🤬🤬🤬

-
Sunny Russ🏓⚽️ (@RussSunny84873) reportedVirgin media is the worst service provider I’ve ever known. Charging loyal customers more and more every year! Ridiculous!
-
Jeegar Jagani (@JeegsJ) reported@virginmedia Five weeks with no broadband or TV and still no proper fix. The 4 week long area outage is supposedly resolved but I’ve still got issues!!Can you please tell me what is going on?
-
Mitesh Patel (@mitzpatel85) reported@Channel4News Don’t think £28m justifies their actions.. if they were deliberately putting customers on hold and dropping call while they tried to cancel, the fine should be £1bn - absolutely pathetic from Virgin Media
-
Andy (@andyosb) reported@Ofcom @virginmedia did exactly the same thing to me back in 2019! It was - and still is - the worst customer service experience of my life (and I'm now 65). It was just so glad to escape them eventually. They're utter scum. Do yourself a favour & don't go anywhere near this company.
-
Pirate (@pirate1100) reported@MartinSLewis Virgin Media are terrible, I had the phone package removed years ago as they kept billing me for calls I hadn’t made. If you don’t renew broadband contract they charge you extortionate fees. Terrible company.
-
PEER COMMUNITY HUB, Our Empowerment Zone! 🇨🇦✌️ (@p_communityhub) reportedVirgin 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
-
Nichola (@Nic_Nic88) reported@virginmedia been in chat with yourselves for nearly an hour to be disconnected and no resolution
-
Gary Freemantle (@Gary_Freemantle) reported@virginmedia in light of @Ofcom ruling, will you now be refunding the 6 months you continued to take from my bank account by DD after I moved house and cancelled out of contract? Especially as even after a 4 hour call you were still transferring me to ‘someone who could help’
-
Graham Hill (@grahamhill1) reported@MartinSLewis Virgin Media were terrible to deal with when I had a contract with them, terrible customer service up until I quit - only then did I get to talk to someone in charge. I still quit and signed up to @sky
-
Jake Maddocks (@MakeJaddocks) reported@LBC Virgin Media overcharged me when I tried to cancel and then gave me a default when I cancelled my DD I’ve appealed to them and the credit scoring agencies with evidence but no responses If anyone has any advice, please let me know
