    @virginmedia How can I phone 151 when my phone line isn’t working! And yes, I’ve dialled the 0345 number on many occasions yet still can’t speak to anyone!!no doubt I will hear from you when I cancel my direct debit and move to another supplier!

    Elenita (@Coops_71) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia is there a problem with email all of a sudden? It was working this morning and now when I try to send an email from Outlook or on my iPhone, I’m told my password is wrong and when I try to log onto webmail I’m told I have no password.

    Hi @virginmedia after 2 weeks of repeated calls and being promised a new remote ordered each time when it wasn’t, I finally reached a customer service agent called Maciej Betnat who took the time yesterday and today to help. He is great & I want to see that this is recognised. 👏🏻

    Banjo (@Chban1967) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia honestly your service is shite

  • G1NG355
    AR #55 (@G1NG355) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Well that's another inconvenience. I can't put into the limited characters what we've been through since Friday with your service.

  • donmackeen
    don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia had the technician come out today after days of patchy service. Got the hub changed, and ... Service still terrible. And now I'm to wait "24 hours"...

  • H0raceWimp
    Iain Montgomery (@H0raceWimp) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia What am I supposed to do when your systems fail and there is no-one to contact for a fix?

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia For the past 5 days I've had limited Tivo use and no access to apos at all in Ml15hd also no Internet 90%of the time. Virgins site says they're working in my area to fix this by 20th October. So will I get a reduction on bill for a week of no service.

  • wolfofwhickham
    wolfofwhickham (@wolfofwhickham) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Very simple .... I never had paper billing it started and I keep getting charged for it .... and no matter what is discussed or sorted on a call wotyncustomer services it keeps getting charged. ...

  • TheGodofPod
    TheGodofPod (Movie Daft) (@TheGodofPod) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @toptenpods @skytv I to have fell victim to this, but via Virgin Media, who it took fully 2 days to cancel with. Horrible experience for Mrs B.

  • jamboross
    Ross R MacLean (@jamboross) reported from East Kilbride, Scotland

    @virginmedia As a mark of respect,have you given us all the day off from the internet? Nothing working again!!! Getting pretty fed up with this, and yes I've checked your service online.

  • ThistleTigger
    Joan Murdoch (@ThistleTigger) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia No, it's not fixed. Same thing happening now as it did yesterday. Alexa cannot connect to Internet, yet my phone can. Echo Dot has been checked and is fine so problem is with @virginmedia

  • naveedasghar
    Naveed Asghar (@naveedasghar) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia @stephenblack32 Shocking to say the outage fix could take up to 5th Jan in Glasgow. over a week with no internet during the festive period is unacceptable. I will be cancelling my virgin fibre today.

  • zandercurrie
    ZanderCurrie (@zandercurrie) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia Wifi not working at all also not letting me watch any live tv?

  • kl7582

    @virginmedia Trying to get help with tv box, no online help through the live chat? Can you assist please

    @virginmedia Bullshit! I’m gonna do everything I can on social media to let everyone know what a **** customer service and service you supply. This is not a one time thing it has been constant. I will ensure anyone thinking about joining to go elsewhere. Keep checking my page and you will see

  • LoraineRiddick2
    Loraine Riddick (@LoraineRiddick2) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia must be the worst company in the world to sort out an issue. Can’t even say their customer service is bad, as can’t get talking to a human being!! Time for change!😤

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks. I'll try that. When I do a status check it flags Tivo right away but shows no issues with broadband or phone when I then run a broadband check it says there's an intermittent fault in my area. !

  • reid2131
    Craig Reid (@reid2131) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia I had a quick start broadband kit sent out. I fitted it all. No broadband, despite 6 calls to your “help” line. Been told a different fault each call. Can this be looked into?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

  • AddickAddict
    Gary Naylor (@AddickAddict) reported

    @virginmedia @DevilHatman You've just been fined £28m for deliberately dropping calls, leaving people on hold, not putting cancellations through etc etc. This is absolutely disgraceful and time the Government closed you down for your continued abuse of customers.

  • SlimMethod
    JOJO METHOD (@SlimMethod) reported

    Virgin Media fined over cancellation practices - UK regulator Ofcom has fined Virgin Media £28 million (about $37 million) after finding it made it unnecessarily difficult for customers to cancel their contracts.

  • soup_gravy
    Bri Bri (@soup_gravy) reported

    I need a new broadband provider, so fed up of dealing with daily outages with @virginmedia Never known a company to be this terrible. Paying for Gig1 Volt yet I can barely even get 50mbps download speed. Engineer visit booked, wait in and no one turns up or even communicates

  • Gary_Freemantle
     Gary Freemantle (@Gary_Freemantle) reported

    @virginmedia in light of @Ofcom ruling, will you now be refunding the 6 months you continued to take from my bank account by DD after I moved house and cancelled out of contract? Especially as even after a 4 hour call you were still transferring me to ‘someone who could help’

  • PaulAllen007
    Sir Paul A (@PaulAllen007) reported

    Brilliant news. The worst of the worst. Moved house, no virgin media at new property and they would not cancel the contract. @virginmedia never use these con artists.

  • NathanDuffin03
    Nathan Duffin 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@NathanDuffin03) reported

    Dear @virginmedia you are the worst please go away

  • Inevry109
    Ryan (@Inevry109) reported

    @ZiaYusufUK Virgin Media knocked on my door asking if I wanted to change my provider. I asked them to leave. Then I got a delivery leaflet for the local takeaway through the letterbox. I've never felt more harassed in my life.

  • LRNA11
    LaurenA (@LRNA11) reported

    @MartinSLewis Another major issue with Virgin Media (and possibly other similar providers) is that they don’t provide customers an option for “No Roll-on” at the end of the contract. Their reminders are puny and twice I got caught with paying almost double monthly rates after contract. 1/

  • ConorSwifty
    Conor Swifty (@ConorSwifty) reported

    @virginmedia Hello Virgin the issue I had got resolved after 40 mins until Clarissa decided to do her job. I'm hoping she gets looked into & gave proper training & help people who have Learning difficulties/disabilities as we struggle to understand stuff but she rather take advantage

  • IanSMcNee
    Ian McNee (@IanSMcNee) reported

    I ditched @VirginMedia years ago over terrible customer service - this is the same as water companies: a semi-monopoly owned by US finance: asset stripping profiteers. Switched to local independent Andrews & Arnold - @AAISP. Top service, real people on the phone who fix problems.
