    @virginmedia @Ofcom - can you help with this situation? As you monitor, telecoms companies; Do you think 3-hours worth of phone calls, being cut off 3 times and 80 minutes on WhatsApp (and counting) is good enough service from @virginmedia just to renew a contract ? #virginmedia

    @virginmedia Unbelievably shockingly bad customer support today. 1hr 25 mins on the phone, spoke to 7 agents and no resolution 2 of your agents were excellent the rest were appaling. As a long standing customer I feel I have no option but to change provider. #virginfail

    @TheStevieG123 @virginmedia I had a similar issue with EE (plus the phone wasn't a good enough upgrade for the money!) I sent it back within 14 days and got a sim only. 5g prob won't be worthwhile over here for some time yet

    Can honestly say I don’t think I’ve ever received customer service as poorly as I have from @virginmedia this weekend/this morning. Absolutely disgusting 😡😡😡

  • Dan_lutonbear
    dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia do you actually have humans employed at your call centres ? After spending a total of 6 hours going from one recorded message to a automated line I have given up. I have absolutely had enough of your lack of customer service poor service poor quality broadband

  • mjdes
    Mike Desborough (@mjdes) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @virginmedia any chance of a useful update on service in SG1. Got no internet or TV. Status hasn’t been updated yet apparently an engineer has been working on it for over an Hour.

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia It’s not specific to me; and to be honest I’m not really bothered. The problem is your marketing 5G phones in areas that don’t have 5G which is affectively mis-selling. Probably something you should look into.

  • Dan_lutonbear
    dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia Same as usual. Bots. Round and round in circles I want to cancel virgin media. Maybe you will contact me when I cancel any further direct debit payment 😡😡😡

  • jasondflynn
    Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia what do I do when your phone team tells me they can’t do anything and it’s down to the WhatsApp team who don’t do anything ? What is the next turn? I have a contract offer I want to accept but can’t ?

  • crimimel
    Mel B (@crimimel) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling

  • LegitBoss69
    🦄 UnicornFarts641🦄 (@LegitBoss69) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia I WILL be going to trading standards. Enough Is enough and your team lie and never Wana resolve or help us resolve the issues Inc fact they break their own agreements with the customers!!! @TradeStandards

  • luciddreamphoto

    @virginmedia No known issues on everything (broadband tv & phone)

    @virginmedia Your agent was also very rude yet reckoned I couldn't make a complaint.

  • steviehind
    stevie hind (@steviehind) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have spoken to your tech guys. I have tried everything they suggested to no avail. All they say is I need to pay £5 extra a month for a booster which I think is unfair as I have done nothing to cause this issue

  • MrsMummypennyUK
    Lynn Beattie (@MrsMummypennyUK) reported from Knebworth, England

    @virginmedia Again i did all this before the engineer visit. Ive been having issues since July. I need to speak with cancellations team.

  • flissaggie
    Phyllis Charles (@flissaggie) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia been trying to speak to someone about my contract been fobbed off ' our system is down' or ' I will call back' still waiting!!!

  • SteveDunn09
    Steve Dunn (@SteveDunn09) reported from Harpenden, England

    @virginmedia Yeah... he he... when the broad band decides to work that might help.. when you get 'not connected' via ethernet and wifi the tests are a bit meaningless

    Niks (@lydia43632819) reported from Luton, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia lied to me when I join the network they I get a recommendation offer but I don’t get 😣

    John Aitken (@johnait72020789) reported from Stotfold, England

    @virginmedia Hi I’ve tried using the link you sent to fix our problem but it keeps just turn off and restarting itself. It happens whether we watch live tv or recorded programmes.

    @virginmedia “Intermittent signal in your area” check back in, in X amount of hours. Been that way since 7am this morning. I get that something has gone wrong beyond your control. But to know what has gone wrong would be nice to know. Thanks

  • Refan80
    Corax (@Refan80) reported

    @virginmedia Care to give a reason reason for the outage today? 28/05/2026. Est fix of 5:05 pm and no concrete reason why is not acceptable as that wipes a whole day of work for those who wfm. Transparency and actual details shared with your customers would be nice.

    Pete 😷 #COVIDisAirborne (@PeteUK7) reported

    @itsendeavour @virginmedia I hope they listen to the feedback they are receiving here. Not that I suppose they care that much. It's all about pleasing shareholders rather than providing professional service to their customers.

    @QuickRespoxd @virginmedia @virginmedia I got on the phone for a simple upgrade but your appalling 'service' had just inspired me to leave . Waste of space , ruined a once good company

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m a new customer and have been with you for 3 weeks. First week was fine but for the past 2 weeks the connection has been diabolical, now showing red light and currently offline- please can you update us if broadband is down?

    @virginmedia how do i request a spotter as my home is hooked up to your network but your site says it isn't?

    @virginmedia @PeteUK7 Maybe employ humans that would rectify this problem.
