  • mickeywhizz
    Michael Taylor (@mickeywhizz) reported from Newburn, England

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Pleased it’s not just me Mark. It really pee’s me off the contempt with which they treat their existing, loyal customers, some of whom have remained loyal since the days when they were Telewest. #newcustomersonly

  • purplelime
    Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I’m signed in but I see no option to test the landline. I clicked on ‘fix landline’ but that just sent me back to the main menu page.

  • classicm
    Mike Moody (@classicm) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia All my tv, broadband and phone services are down. Nobody available from Virgin to help. Done all the usual checks and still off.

  • purplelime
    Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No, service page still says all services are fine but my landline still not working.

    🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It's not a problem at my end, and it's not just me affected. Have you really not noticed a flurry of people saying the same thing? I know people in different areas of the UK who have the same problems at the same times.

    @virginmedia Horrific customer service

  • UnicornRunning
    Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)

  • liamsholder91
    liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia basically I can't do anything on the stream box comes up contact customer care I do then I get absolute no were...look I understand everyone has teething problems but this needs sorting ASAP because different when you need the money I ain't paying for something I can't use said

  • didixon74
    LadyDi (@didixon74) reported from Blyth, England

    @virginmedia please can some one contact me about my unresolved complaint. Genuinely worst service I have aver received, want to cancel my contract as I have lost all confidence in your service. Over 4 hours on the phone in the last week and still no further forward. Thanks

  • liamsholder91
    liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia sorry for the late reply I smashed my phone I phoned customer service and I'm still waiting for someone to phone me iv had NO TV for about 15 days now

  • Look_North
    Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

  • ZicoPete
    Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England

  • Misterpinkcat
    mrpinkcat (@Misterpinkcat) reported

    @virginmedia @GlitteringAngel Katie shouldn't have to send you a DM, just treat loyalty with some respect and give people discounts the longer they stay with you instead of giving newbies better deals than long standing customers

  • andrescopeland
    Andres Copeland (@andrescopeland) reported

    @virginmedia do you have any issues in the beckenham / bromley area? Both Internet and TV went down, tried restarting etc but not working.

  • ScottWLFord
    Scott W L Ford (TICK) (@ScottWLFord) reported

    @virginmedia - what are you playing at? My TiVo not working! Intermittence signal problem went on week this week! Now my new 360 thingy remote I got it from start of this week. Only to find out I had to order a 360 box it’ll take a week or so? Had enough now.

  • Welshyyyyy
    BH (@Welshyyyyy) reported

    @keithapearson @virginmedia Couldn't agree more, awful company to deal with

  • DanTaylor86
    DT (@DanTaylor86) reported

    @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years but the customer service I've received today is extremely worrying. Everyone has been polite and tried to help, but still my package is all wrong. This needs rectifying immediately or your major competitor will be gaining new custom

  • Martinayres65o1
    Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported

    @virginmedia My complaint has been ongoing and so far you have failed to address it. I have your handler my complaint ref no and he promised I would receive a call back from a manager at 3:00pm. As usual your managers fail to ring back.

  • begumdi

    @virginmedia can you please fix the internet? It’s down for the last 5 hours in East London.

  • BigPaul91
    PMAC (@BigPaul91) reported

    @virginmedia My connect keeps cutting out for 30 seconds to 5 mins due the signal one engineer said it was interference on the line the one yesterday said nope couldn’t see it … my entire 2026s relationship with Virgin/O2 has been a disaster

  • cymroglyn
    CymroGlyn 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏉🍾♿️ (@cymroglyn) reported

    @virginmedia You should be keeping an eye out for this sort of criminal activity, creates profiles for most large UK companies so they can reply to any complaints and get the customer to download software so they can compensation…and rob them. Report them to X

  • rabtaylor1981
    Robert Taylor (@rabtaylor1981) reported

    @virginmedia Just fyi, 2 days of back and forth on DMs now, waiting hours for replies, and still nowhere! 2 more days paying for a service that doesn't work and I can't and don't use!
