-
Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported from Camden Town, England@BBCWatchdog I was without TV service with Virgin Media for over a week this month, could only use chat bot, eventually a live chat with a person because I took to twitter, but they couldn't help me either. Still waiting for the comp form they said would come automatically.

S (@MSROPER10) reported from London, England@virginmedia Its magically started to work on ethernet but it's not giving out a WiFi signal? What is going on?
-
Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England@virginmedia It’s arranged (3rd time) for engineer visit tomorrow 4-7pm…. I just hope they don’t randomly cancel again
-
Adam Farnsworth (@farnsworth_adam) reported from London, England@virginmedia It’s appalling they can act so quickly What about the speed issue?
-
Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia The quality of customer service cannot be recommended. The long delays are a constant problem Coming up to 2 hours this morning and no response
-
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.
-
Brenda (@joybrenda) reported from London, England@DannyMonez @virginmedia Yes sat down to watch final episode of " and just like that " and the screen is pixels all across. Just tried to watch on catch up is the same. Virgin Media i want a refund how can this be fixed. Can you tell me when sky will repeat this final episode.
-
Jeff Salmon (@JeffSalmon) reported from Camden Town, Englandcont/- Every 2/3 hours you say that it is going to be fixed within three or four hours. It has not. We could not give a **** about £8 compensation per day. You are costing us thousands of pounds in lost revenue for those of us working from home. More @virginhelp @virginmedia
-
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??
-
Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England@virginmedia Brilliant get out clause @virginmedia. What you fail to realise is that when your so called service goes down for hours at a time, over the course of time amounts to so, so so much more than 48 hours!! Roll on switching of providers.
-
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!
-
Steven Peterson 🏳️🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia I’ve already terminated my service with you since you were unable to get it installed in less than a month.
-
Mr Lee Daniel (@MisterLeeDaniel) reported from London, England@virginmedia Stop calling me then hanging up. That’s rude.
-
Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia 14 hour wait for a response on your chat bot and I still haven’t passed security. That’s some service
-

-
CJ (@ZJM_331) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia your service checker isn’t working. Can you please advise of service issues in the N1 area as the broadband has gone down again? Thank you.

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.
-
Helen Pinkers (@Barchetta66) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia So that’s it. We’re still no closer to solving this issue than we were when it went down at the beginning of the week. Absolutely dreadful service.

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.
-
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
-
Nicky P. Smalley (@Nicky_P_Smalley) reported@virginmedia All I need you to do is fix the internet in this postcode and keep it fixed. Not difficult.
-
Caroline (@finn33) reported@virginmedia home WiFi down again. No update on engineer time. Just that they’re fixing the problem. How can we get this sorted. Seems a bit of heat and your WiFi goes down. What exactly am I paying for?!
