-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, EnglandSo @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband
-
Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it
-
Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England@virginmedia Can someone advise how I fix the Wi-Fi pod which isn’t working with my new router - I had to upgrade at extra cost to receive new kit as the lead time was shorter than getting a competitor in #ThisIsWrong
-
Matrim Red Hand (@tripodmatt) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia hello - I'm moving house and was told I'd receive something to post back your equipment. Nothing yet. I tried to call but was cut off. Any help?
-
kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, EnglandI've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.
-
Vignesh (@mistervickster) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia how do you have the worst customer service ? Will just have to book a technician to sort out issues with account login.
-
Lucy Hunte (@HunteLucy) reported from London, England@virginmedia - workman cut through my cable, no Wi-Fi, TV or phone and earliest engineer appointment is Monday??! Completely unacceptable! I work from home and have teens! 😭Help!!!
-
Jeff Salmon (@JeffSalmon) reported from Camden Town, EnglandCont… @virginhelp @virginmedia What can be so difficult that a COMPETENT team of engineers can’t fix in these days. The fact is we believe that virgin are a team of incompetents and the time has come for us all to leave Virgin. You are a disgrace.
-
Dr Jan Evelyn-Wilson (@WilsonJevelyn) reported from London, England@VirginMedia wi-fi just cut out AGAIN! Annoying when one is in the middle of something. WHY!
-
Jeff Salmon (@JeffSalmon) reported from Camden Town, England@virginmedia Your bland response is no different to the info being said on your website. Rather than tell everyone that the fix will be ready in a few hours (as you have done for the past three days), why not tell us what the problem is and stop giving us false hopes. Your response please.
-
Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia I cancelled my broadband subscription in October and Virgin have kept charging me for landline although other provider inform me that they are providing service I just want to close the Virgin account
-
Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England@virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me straight to auto bot/live chat messaging service and there is no one actually responding.
-
Cate McLaurin (@madebycatem) reported from Camden Town, EnglandHello @virginmedia I get that things break sometimes. Do you think there’s a way you cld keep customers informed about how long it might take to fix it? I’ve tried your status page which tells me both that there’s no issue in our area and also that there is an issue . .
-
Adam Farnsworth (@farnsworth_adam) reported from London, England@virginmedia It’s appalling they can act so quickly What about the speed issue?
-
Michael James Weaver (@Weaverfooty14) reported from London, England@virginmedia recently joined virgin for broadband and it isn't cheap its amazing when it works but every night recently it has gone down and when you check the app it says engineers are working on resolving an issue is there a update with this please as its so frustrating
-
Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported from City of London, England@virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.
-
Shar 💙 #IStandWithUkraine (@sharlewis58) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia the tv connection has had a fault since 8th June. You are "working on it", & each day checking status the date to fix is moved further away. You do not refund for lack of service why is that? And text updates are not received. And its STILL not working.

Openreach (@WeAreOpenreach) reported@NeilJac74898351 @virginmedia Hi Neil, Virgin install and use their own network separate to the Openreach network, so any information on our website about services you can order wouldn't apply to any Virgin products and vice versa, I'm afraid. If you wish to order FTTP, you'd need to order through a (1/2)

alan holt (@alanholt7) reported@virginmedia any idea when WiFi will be back on in bb2 5eg area? Been down all day
-
Mike (@mike1995__) reported@AdamLeePawson @FNBRintel I don't have an O2 SIM and I still have access to it as a Virgin Media broadband customer
-
The Void Between Good and Bad (@NoMoreStarmer) reportedOh **** you @virginmedia Tried to ring to cancel TNT Sports and Sky Cinema and you put the phone down on me, Then I did live Chat on the app and the guy Mohammed closed it, Can you get someone who is English to work in your customer services.
-
steppa (@steppaCS) reported@wixinho @virginmedia literally 3rd time ive had this issue at different properties, you'd think theyd be able to do it right first, second? no, third time
-
LGWLGWLGW (@lgwlgwlgw) reported@virginmedia another hot day. Another day of utterly shite internet service. Much of the population WFH and your service is making this more and more impossible. My router has been rebooted. There are known local network issues - and it can’t be the wrong kind of heat #pissedoff
-
tracey johnson (@traceyjohnson44) reported@virginmedia It was very frustrating and the caller kept saying my mum had to talk. But my mum gets confused. I was getting stressed as my mum relies on it. But it should say on my mum's account that she is elderly and has emergency calling attached to her phone.
-
Heathcliff (@heathcliffom) reported@dkitwood virginmedia customer service is the worst . I ditched them a couple of years ago but they really made if difficult
-
whitebear 🔜 VeXpo '26 (@whitebearvt) reported@DigBipper188 @LiveFastSimp @miaaowing In the EU I get 30GB included, and there’s international minutes in my plan anyways. Just data that’s the issue outside the EU. Also O2 in my area was garbage last time I tried it, was on a virgin media contract so experienced both before and after the VMO2 merger. Then again, haven’t touched it since 2022.

James (@jamestaylor1) reported@KenWhittall68 @virginmedia It was the same on sky. Not down to Virgin
