-
Alli (@Alli3Fifer) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland@virginmedia Spent another 75 mins on the phone & managed to get a technician out this afternoon.The technician confirmed it is a known fault with the hub 5 and knew without testing what the issue was. The fault has no fix and my vulnerable parents are still left without the phone service.

diandrick (@ladyracer70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia Thanks for asking. An operator will call me back tomorrow, as it’s part of an ongoing three week saga. I’m so disappointed as I’ve been a loyal VM (originally Telewest) customer for around 30 years. Remaining hopeful 🙃
-
Lesley Neilan (@lesley_neilan) reported from Edinburgh, ScotlandHi @virginmedia it seems channel 160 is no longer authorised? (for me). Called 150, got text with link to check, advice? Call after 8am tomorrow. Any info on the issue much appreciated thanks
-
seldomseenkid (@seldomseenkid) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@vmbusiness @virginmedia @virginmedianews Why is your service so unreliable? Are we expected to pay for a service that doesn’t work?
-
-
trippfuller (@trippfuller) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia is the worst. Three days of off and on service has cost me significant time and money.
-
Darren Obbard is on mastodon (@DarrenObbard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia Yes. Yesterday. Which is why our phone doesn't work. No adapter, despite being assured it would be sent.
-
Kim667 (@Kim6672012) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland@virginmedia poor show @virgin media. Nothing works! Not even the app or your service status page.
-
victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, ScotlandFinally something positive to say about @virginmedia following a call from Callum at the “executive team” providing the level of current service I would expect from a such a huge company! Perhaps the skills of good customer service need to be a CPD exercise for the call centres!
-
M.J Plastering & Tiling (@plasterer_mj) reported from Tranent, Scotland@virginmedia Certainly not ideal paying for a service we're not getting
-
Shirley Monteith (@lethalshirl) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia Yes and there are no issues in the area so it’s something in my house - my neighbour below is also having broadband issues. I need to book an engineer to come & check connection/equipment etc but can’t get logged in to do this either on computer or phone
-
Wendy Bell (@WendyBe54745206) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia Issues when you phone VM you are constantly transferred to different people cold transfer then if they put u on hold cut off .why is there no email or decent human web chat poor customer service I am still waiting to get complaints resolved
-
trippfuller (@trippfuller) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia It's a bit offensive to send someone u cost significant income a link so they can get a fee bucks. If u just communicate sucking in advance those who count on service can arrange.
-
Patrick McCarthy (@PatMcCarthy37) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia What is going on with your email service? You don't recognise my password causing me to keep changing it and now you've locked me out and stopped me doing that. Awful service.
-
Ally (@Nowhereman91) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland@virginmedia a want to upgrade my account but your site hasn't let me view my options in over a week and I can't get through on the phone. Please help.
-
The Bar Fly (@thebarfly) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia It claims intermittent issues. Mine has been totally dead for the past two days. I appreciate there is nothing you can do. It means when that is fixed and I still have my issue, I’ll have to start again to report then patiently wait till they can be bothered sending someone.
-
Mike McNulty 🏴🇪🇺🇺🇦✊ (@bankaudits1) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia I tried to get help but didn’t get through to anyone just a text sent to my mobile telling me how to fix it but no joy. Checked the forums and turns out I’m not alone and the upgrade is rubbish so just stuck it in the cupboard.. hopeless!
-
Edinburgh’s Disgraces (@EdiDisgraces) reported from Edinburgh, ScotlandCost of living advice - IF Virgin Media ask for a big price hike tell them you are going elsewhere but will stay for the same price as a new customer would pay. It takes a while but saved £800 (over 18 months) today and will get more for same price/no increase @MoneySavingExp
-
Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia as it was tiresome and he can’t get through to anyone. The same problem I had today. He has his phone, broadband and tv with you. His mobile as well I reckon. Having spent a good bit time today going through all the stuff on the phone to eventually be hung up on is infuriating
-
Abhishek BEHL (@iABehl) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@virginmedia I would like help / assistance in setting up my new account. I received 3 missed calls today from your sales team and when I did call back nothing productive happened. I have a severely disabled daughter and we need the new account to be activated as we have alot of…

Seph (@sephiroth17181) reported@wrighty1707 @virginmedia the company is a complete joke, i was paying £56 a month for 1gig and the last 2 months were atrocious for connection the best they could do was send patronising emails saying it was my issue, so i switched to EE 1.6gig for £35 a month with unlimited mobile data to boot

Truthwillsetyoufree (@Truthwills26171) reported@RakeLark @handsomedave32 @VirginMediaNews What personal issues, my disgust at the race baiting grifters and the morons who support them? If that’s a personal issue I’ll happily hold it. Where did I say it wasn’t a concern or problem? I stated facts about Virgin Media, & that many agencies can get state funds!
-
dEBT shredder (@andybearz) reported@robert_grieve @virginmedia Yup Terrible customer service Seems to be once they have you signed up they no longer give a ****

-
Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported@ulickdcox @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.
-
master P (@mastersdog) reported@CheekyVic @virginmedia They r all the same. Was with Sky for 25 years now with Virgin. Not the best customer support

Seren 7 (@Seren_7) reported@virginmedia your online chat to us hasn’t worked for over 6 weeks. I have only been able to cancel today after being on a 1 hour call. Please advise when my account will be credited?
