  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 21 seconds ago 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

  @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.

  @virginmedia Well I guess as it went down Wednesday afternoon and if all goes well back up tomorrow we will automatically qualify.

  @virginmedia All these problems. But still fleecing money from us.

  @virginmedia ** PLEASE NOTE ** We don't have human agents supporting troubleshooting / technical issues over our Messaging Platform. If you wish to speak to someone please contact one of the Team on 150 from your Virgin Media Landline or 0345 454 1111 Well that was "helfpul"

  Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported 26 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia You didn’t reach out sadly and I’ve now cancelled the installation. Having spoken to someone clearly at home with her baby screaming in the background I have zero confidence that you are able to help us.

  @virginmedia Still no broadband and now the estimate is over a week !?! Terrible

• 
  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 29 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @virginmedia Here we go, phones again. This is the 21st century where other communication methods are much more efficient. I'll be surprised if they do respond to me and actually help with my 2 open support tickets (both failing your SLA)

  Mariachiara (@mariesnotcool) reported 33 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia we’ve had no service in EC1V London, since our Wi-Fi was installed last month. We’ve tried to call countless time and we keep being told about “area issues” that would be solved the day after but never do. This is just unacceptable behaviour!

• 
  Connor Dean (@donnorcean) reported 35 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia have had intermittent issues for over a month now, every time I go down the route of reporting the issue it just says wait 24 hours. How can I speak to someone about this as the phone number never gets me to a person?

  Please @virginmedia can you change your waiting music. Its the same 4 tracks adnauseum & very poor quality at that. No wonder customers who wait for over an hour hang up. Its enough to drive you mad with these earworms all day.

  SA Punk (@michaelsamuels4) reported 39 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia I have no phone signal so no WiFi. Webchat not working. Any suggestions?

• 
  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 41 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginhelp @MistryMistry21 @virginmedia Virgin Media give really poor customer service. I’ve been waiting over 14 hours? It feels like your customer service team is a team of 1

• 
  Sam Batty (@sam_batty) reported 48 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia We’ve been disconnected early. Been trying for nearly an hour on your live chat but no help provided at all. Still waiting.

• 
  Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported 49 minutes ago from London, England

  So @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

  @themotablogger @virginmedia Terrible in Dagenham too! At least 3 times a day it drops out and normally in the middle of an important meeting! Not good enough!!

• 
  Amanda Birrell (@blackheathma) reported 52 minutes ago from London, England

  @MartinSLewis It is the worst company I have ever dealt with and I’m now actively discouraging others to use Virgin Media. Cancelling is also very difficult and deliberately so

  @virginmedia DB was dealing with this issue but has not responded since lunchtime Friday

  @virginmedia I sent you the screengrab, it says “your mailbox is not available at the moment”. Can you confirm what the issue is with your mail server?

  @virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!

  Dear @virginmedia whilst trying to sign into virgin tv go,I find myself trapped in a never ending loop off misery and frustration 😫🤬

• 
  Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported 20 minutes ago

  @MartinXTweets @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.

• 
  👑 NG Football 👑 (@Bigdeano88) reported 21 minutes ago

  Anyone else watching Sky Sports News on Virgin Media channel 509 having problems? The picture is flickering/bouncing and the text at the bottom is really blurry. Every other channel, including the other Sky Sports channels, is absolutely fine. Anyone else getting this? @virginmedia

• 
  For Hod,for Harry,for England & St george (@CoulsdonTHFC) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia over a month with broadband issues, still not rectified after being told intermittent service, engineer visit & new router. Now intermittent service AGAIN .Quick enough to raise prices but not fix problems. Still no compensation either. NOT HAPPY 😡

• 
  Paddy Sweeney (@PaddySw99745534) reported 24 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @LucyW1972 Why is no one dealing with customer service complaints. For one month now I have emailed, messaged called but still your equipment has not been sorted. Paddy Sweeney
