-
Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England@Whiskey_Mick @virginmedia We’ve just had the same experience - waited 8 days. Not a word from them. Not a human spoken to. If I had another choice I’d drop them. 0/10 for customer service.
-
Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England@virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me to the auto bot/live chat messaging service which has no use at all as no one is actually responding.
-
Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported from London, England@virginmedia you have now postponed an installation scheduled for 4th November to Christmas Eve! Can’t see that happening. Maybe someone actually based in the UK might bother to contact me about this? Minded to cancel otherwise. Not acceptable service.
-
SallyH (@sallyhhk) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia 3 hours of online chat and I’m still haven’t managed to cancel my subscription. Why is it so difficult??
-

Lawrence ****** 🇺🇦 (@goonerlgh) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia Do you, or could you make a TV box remote for the elderly? Tiny buttons with tinier symbols instead of words, black buttons on black body.... Almost impossible for some older people to use. An OAP version with larger coloured buttons would be such a help!
-
char🏴 (@charliewhu__) reported from Camden Town, England@virginmedia hi, received my new phone. Except there’s no 4G/5G showing up even though I can send messages, go on social media and I can’t access sky bet. Is there any solution to this?
-
Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday
-
グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England@TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines
-
Geoff Neale (@g_neale) reported from Camden Town, England@premierinn no Free WiFi or Ultimate WiFi at Premier Inn Euston. Twitter has lots of other complaints of the same issue nationally… why I am asked to speak to Virgin Media, how hard can it be? Forget Network does not force the page to reload, what else can I do?
-
Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England@virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.
-
Lusitano71 (@Lisboadolphin71) reported from Camden Town, England@virginmedia no services for all 5 days now! Your customer care is appalling! And, apparently, nothing is wrong, according to your website. Bad!!
-
グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, EnglandI wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected
-
Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia how do I connect to London Underground WiFi now you have turned off your own hotspots? Hopefully you are not just depriving all Virgin Media customers of the service! Especially as you are putting all your prices up!
-
SA Punk (@michaelsamuels4) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia I have no phone signal so no WiFi. Webchat not working. Any suggestions?

-
Ant Hodges (@anthodges) reported@virginmedia No inconvenience - I’m asking if I can charge you if your engineer cancels on me and wastes my time as you had to remind me many time that I would have to pay you of if I cancelled - I think it’s only fair that I can if you cancel.

Johnny Mac (@JohnMac19059272) reported@Smallworth_xx @virginmedia Is it possible to go back to a satellite dish as all these Internet based have problems with buffering. Gone all for years now.

Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reportedIn 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife Ruby to cancer. But there was one small piece of her he could still hold onto. Her voice. Ruby had recorded the outgoing voicemail greeting on their home phone around 2001. After she died, Stan deliberately kept it. In the difficult years that followed, whenever he was feeling particularly low, he could pick up the phone and hear her voice again. He even avoided changing phone providers because he was afraid the recording might disappear. Then, in December 2014, it did. Technical work involving Virgin Media's voicemail system caused Ruby's recording to vanish. Stan was devastated. After protecting it for more than a decade, he believed the sound of his wife's voice was gone for good. When Virgin Media learned what the recording meant to him, a team of engineers began searching through their systems. They initially thought the chances of recovering it were extremely small. They searched for three days. Then they found it. In January 2015, BBC Radio Leeds was there as Stan heard the recovered recording for the first time. The moment Ruby's voice came through, he recognized her immediately. "That's her." Stan broke down in tears. He later described hearing her again as a "wonderful, wonderful sound." Virgin Media also gave him a permanent copy of the recording, so he would never have to rely on the voicemail system to keep it safe again. Ruby had recorded nothing extraordinary. It was simply an everyday greeting for their home telephone. Fourteen years later, that ordinary little recording had become something Stan thought he would never hear again.

Keith Tracy (@KeithT3103) reported@bmstewart2004 I cancelled my Virgin Media contract at £125, a week of my ignoring their calls I spoke with them and agreed a new contract at £40. Never let it roll over more than one year
-
Andy Wright (@ncfcandywright) reported@MickeyDN7 @virginmedia @SkySports Sky customer having the same issue, so I'd say the problem is on Sky's side not Virgins
-
Calvin 'Emeka Onwuka (@CalvinEmeka) reportedAhh @virginmedia, less than a month into your Broadband Internet and the service is down. You hope to "restore it by 10.08pm" 😡😡😡 What. The. Actual. F!! 4 years with a previous provider and this never happened.
