    @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

  • squeakytoy
    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.

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

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

    @virginmedia I presume so. I was quite clear I wanted to leave Virgin as I was not happy with the services provided even though they tried to keep me as a customer. I feel Virgin are making it as difficult as possible and I am paying for it

  • gendal
    Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.

  • Barchetta66
    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.

  • PieFaceMark
    mark (@PieFaceMark) reported from Poplar, England

    Absolute nightmare with @virginmedia arranging new package. Since agreeing package deal yesterday I've received FOUR different emails telling me I'm gonna be paying four different amounts, all higher than what was agreed. Absolutely terrible customer service and real headache

    Sevki 💉 💉🎉 (@sevki) reported from City of London, England

    .@virginmedia “we’re really sorry you’ve been having issues since 21st but rest assured we will resolve this by 1st of Dec” On the same exact call that gave a 10 day resolution time @virginmedia: “looks like your contract has ended. Let’s talk through your upgrade options”

  • AussieHarj
    Have you met Harj? (@AussieHarj) reported from Walthamstow, England

  • ASoria34455
    Alicia Folge (@ASoria34455) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia how can you leave customers without access to internet for days in 2026? I just came back from South America & when we had a problem it was fixed within the hour, you really can’t do better?

  • Jet_Piranha
    Jet_Piranha🔞 (@Jet_Piranha) reported

    @virginmedia broadband has been down for 13 hours so far and the estimated fix is still 11 hours from now, what is going on?

  • christophlander
    Chris Lander (@christophlander) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your faux sympathy, but its still not working. Terrible service. Is there a way to compensate for this?

  • DavidOw38948049
    David Owens (@DavidOw38948049) reported

    @virginmedia Tried numerous times to contact you (not a customer) for someone come to my home and remove virgins outside media biz and associated cables as they are unused, not required and unsightly Webb site just ask repeatedly if I am a existing/ joining customer and repeats

    @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Virginmedia did similar when my first wife passed away. They owed around £300. Chased up several times and never got it back. Yet they got debt collectors on me for £25 outstanding bill lol

  • 2124Jim
    james mcgarry (@2124Jim) reported

    @virginmedia Outages do occur and that's understandable, what is beyond ridiculous is your customer service team. To tell people there's no outage showing when near enough a whole town is down is insulting.

  • BillKilvington
    Bill Kilvington 💙 FCODP, FRCA (@BillKilvington) reported

    @virginmedia What on earth is going on. Intermittent broadband, all WiFi pods disabled and the site says I don't actually have any. Customer support says you're replacing cables in my area, but no planned work showing
