    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  • deangledhill
    Dean Gledhill (@deangledhill) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Yep did that but the signal strength went . Not strong enough to use upstairs

    Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported from Leeds, England

    And again @virginmedia have taken payment for a service I cancelled and have never actually used. Still can't log on to my account because it apparently doesn't exist.

    Ashley Hirst (@ashleyhirst15) reported from Bradford, England

    @skytv are proper jokers account due for renewal and only offered to knock it down by £7 per Month... That's the £7 increase they put on... Virgin media can get same package for £30 cheaper!

    @virginmedia @O2 what's the point Virgin is as bad as BT I was supposed to have Virgin Broadband & phone installed on Friday got told yesterday it was delayed til December 1st earliest with no reason as to why asked for a 5G router to get me by til then was put on hold for 20 mins then cut off.

    @virginmedia I’m not a VM customer.

  • SamWatt30745054
    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

    Yamu Matarr 🇬🇲 🇬🇧 🦂 (@Yamusenghore) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia. It's getting ridiculous that my Internet has been jumping up and down like a skipping rope. LS8. I can't get anything done due to no connection. I do not want to use my mobile data anymore. Please sort this.

  • ThomasGaddPhoto
    Thomas Gadd (@ThomasGaddPhoto) reported from Wrose, England

    @SGiangregorio @virginmedia Terrible for the money they charge people. No doubt they’ll be happy enough increase your bill though at the end of the year

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  • JayDS87
    Jay Smith (@JayDS87) reported from Halifax, England

    @virginmedia why is my internet disconnecting every 5 minutes and the website won’t load for service updates……

  • astolante
    Louise🐦🐝🌵🧀🐌 (@astolante) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It was never connected. I haven't been able to access my account because when I try log on, it says my email and account number don't exist

  • JayDS87
    Jay Smith (@JayDS87) reported from Halifax, England

    @virginmedia Service status website page won’t load even on my phone service provider. I have reset my router twice. Still happening.

  • Lisalav22
    Lisa Lavelle (@Lisalav22) reported from Guiseley, England

    @virginmedia I have 2 main boxes have been told if I want to have 2 main I’d have to pay extra when I already have 2, I raised a complaint but next day it said resolved I’d like to know how as I was never contacted, told my services were cancelled but they weren’t so I don’t know where I am

  • guyrleech
    Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  • Churchill0782
    The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  • SamWatt30745054
    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  • westerby1
    Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts🐀 (@westerby1) reported from Thornton, England

    What #InternetSpeed does a one person household with a laptop /mobile & Roku streaming stick need? I sometimes watch HD movies while on my laptop, but I never play video games. I'm thinking of changing my @virginmedia package (price increase!) & am currently on M250 broadband.

    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @VirginMedia We’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.

  • loldiplo
    Diplo (@loldiplo) reported

    @virginmedia Already got one booked in. I will be complaining however as you already are charging a substantial amount for a service you’re clearly incapable of providing.

  • MeAndTheCloudss
    Vee (@MeAndTheCloudss) reported

    So I guess I am not the only one who is having problems with @virginmedia today and the past couple of WEEKS.....💔 Honestly what is going on.....

  • kelly_twidale
    kelly (@kelly_twidale) reported

    @virginmedia So things like iplayer will no longer work after 2nd of June ? The problem with a 360 is it doesn’t have recording capabilities which is the main purpose of the v6 it’s ok upgrading the systems but a lot of people like my parents still record not stream

  • peter_mcclurg
    Peter mcclurg (@peter_mcclurg) reported

    @virginmedia your app says intermittent issues yet your call centre automated response says no issues Utter shambles of a company.

  • DevilHatman
    Hatz (@DevilHatman) reported

    @virginmedia what on earth is going on? My upload speed has been dogshit since Friday/Saturday. Today along it's dropped from about 25mb/s to less than 10mb/s. All your site says is "intermittent issues in the area"... which is so regular its utterly redundant now

    Dear Lord. Virgin media. Crap. No one answers the phone.

    DOWN WITH CORPORATIONS (My virgin media is down)

  • PeteBradders
    Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported

    @virginmedia @DisneyPlusUK I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!

    @virginmedia Please answer the question - what is the reason for the problem?
