    @virginmedia you have the worst streaming service EVER. Thinking of quitting you, because it's 💩

  • 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.

  • 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!😤

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

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

  • Coops_71
    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.

  • GlasgowThat
    That Glasgow Florida Family🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏳️‍🌈 (@GlasgowThat) reported from Cambuslang, Scotland

    @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

  • ChristianBunga7
    bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yeah, I’ve already done this. I had a guy sent out to take a look and he just left without fixing it. Mind I can’t use most of these support things cause I was never sent my customer number or contract information. This does also make it so I’m unable to cancel my contract @Ofcom

  • GiggsyBlantyre
    Alan Lappin (@GiggsyBlantyre) reported from Hamilton, Scotland

    Here @virginmedia - any idea of some suggestions please, on how to contact your complaints/Customer Relations Team about a complaint I’ve submitted? Tried phoning, passed from pillar to post in the sub-continent, and getting nowhere. Two words: NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

  • lordofanywhere
    dios mio la creatura 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦 (@lordofanywhere) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia is a complete and utter joke in Glasgow. Apparently there is a fault and won’t be resolved until January 5th. On Twitter, they redirect us to the service status page, which is “experience some problems” and we can’t check service status. Compensation is in order.

  • DRoss215
    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia Email sent hopefully I will get a speedy resolution. Another 40 minutes of my time wasted!!

  • DRoss215
    David (@DRoss215) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @virginmedia Still waiting on Gareth to get in touch. @Ofcom can you please help? No service since the end of January 😡😡

  • wilsonfkp
    Wilson (@wilsonfkp) reported from Renfrew, Scotland

    Broadband is down, @virginmedia I guess this is affected by @ScottishPower blackout in PA4

  • tofolo_1
    David A (@tofolo_1) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia how do I contact the help team? Recently joined and trying to setup billing / online account says to call you. But 0345 is 30p a minute. Can't find webchat, can't find text thing, don't have a live landline yet. I can access the dark web easier!

  • keybo7
    Kieran Reynolds (@keybo7) reported from Clydebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia How did folk manage to buy these when site down?

  • Coops_71
    Elenita (@Coops_71) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia I sent an email at 10.51 this morning which was delivered without any issues.

    Simply Norwegian (@simplynorwegian) reported

    @virginmedia I need some help resolving an unauthorised account creation, outstanding unlawful charges and failure to resolve despite numerous calls and written correspondence dating back to October 2025. What number can I call to speak to someone with authority to end this??

  • TYS20212
    Told You So (@TYS20212) reported

    @Oxford_Life @virginmedia The new tv box is absolutely abysmal, the worst “upgrade” in history. If it wasn’t for lack of high speed broadband alternatives here we would be off like a shot.

  • 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!

  • 2cakesdakes
    twocakesdakes (@2cakesdakes) reported

    @virginmedia why does your call centre phone me about 3 times a day then just hang up when I answer?

  • 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.

  • KayCee312898473
    ohsandra70 (@KayCee312898473) reported

    @virginmedia increased bill to £70 but internet service is crap!

    Donna B (@beasknees81) reported

    @virginmedia had a guy phoning from a mobile number 07740338310, claiming to be from Virgin Media. I just hung up. As I have never had anyone from you guys phoning me from a mobile number ever!!
