    The only good thing these new @virginmedia super hubs are good for is flying out of a window! Dropping internet connection like AH dropping her package on JD’s bed! Fricking awful service!

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia my contract has finally been resolved. 3 hours of phone calls in 24-hrs (including phone being cut off 3 times) 6 hours of WhatsApp Failure to honour contract offers. Shambles of a company. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. #virginmedia #fail

    @virginmedia The @virginmedia box has completely broken down since yesterday & we can’t watch TV. My broadband is also affected. I’m a fairly new customer & I’ve had constant issues since moving from @sky I’ve now got to wait until Saturday before a technician can come & repair everything 👎🏼

    @Ofcom Thanks. I wasn't able to find anything on @virginmedia site for requesting compensation so I have raised a complaint instead.

    @virginmedia when I switched to you in April the guy selling the package offered me some Wi-Fi boosters if I had poor signal in parts of my house which I do… now some months in I really do need them and was promised them free of charge so can you make good on your promise please

    @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.

    Paul Swain (@PaulswainDJ) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia An ongoing account issue. All I’m trying to do is sort it out. Your staff accepted my call today and then hung up after 17 minutes of hold time.

    VIRGIN MEDIA beware over 25 yrs a customer, there customer service has hit rock bottom what an appalling company to deal with anybody had the same experience please pass on.

  • Pegnarista
    Carlo (@Pegnarista) reported from Stanstead Abbotts, England

    @virginmedia You are the worst. 1. Never once asked me to DM my account details so you can look into and resolve privately. 2. Paid no attention to my first tweet, in effect advising me to continue to do the very thing I complained about telephone call after telephone call Pathetic.

  • Pegnarista
    Carlo (@Pegnarista) reported from Stanstead Abbotts, England

    @virginmedia Been a customer for 10 years, now thinking of leaving as a result of: 1. Remote control for 360 upgrade don't work and despite promises hasn't been fixed. 2. Hours wasted on the phone. 3. Conflicting and incorrect information from Customer Service resulting in above

    @virginmedia “Have you checked for any issues in your area” No I have not checked that link. It is intermittent; one minute it is useable and next the internet service is missing; it is regular occurrence, happens almost daily!?

    @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.

    @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.

    @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?
