  • EdinburghNJS
    Neil Sneddon (@EdinburghNJS) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Got to say. Been a customer of @virginmedia since Dec 10th 1999. First problem I've ever had this week, and service, ability to contact and understanding of my problem is absolutely woeful. Luckily still in cooling off period for new deal. Dreadful.

    @virginmedia what is going on? No television or broadband from 550pm Thursday the 30th of June. Estimated fix was 3am 1st of July. Guess what? Still nothing. Now estimate is 12pm today. Aye thats no happening. What time will the service I'm paying for be back online?

  • wshiells
    willie shiells (@wshiells) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia , spent 2 hours online chat with yourselves, then passed onto customer service , now 5 hours later still no response. Worst customer service out there folks

    @virginmedia Stupid question!

  • StuartLyon
    Stuart Lyon 💙 (@StuartLyon) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Virgin Media probably the worst broadband provider in the world. Can’t access their service status info via 3G.

    @benjitindz @virginmedia Product is good, customer service non existent

    @Will_Jeffs @virginmedia Tbf ive had problems with my wifi for the last few days, what i done was unplug everything then wait a couple of mins then plug it all back in again then it was fine.

  • PatMcCarthy37
    Patrick McCarthy (@PatMcCarthy37) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @AndyHarrison123 @virginmedia Help desk pretty much admitted it. Said suspicious activity. No doubt me constantly changing my password. Suggested fix within 5-days. Said they would email me when done!!!! First noticed it about a week ago. Galling when you get the followup marketing text.

    @virginmedia been down all morning, reset router and checked service status and everything online

    @virginmedia broadband in EH11 is up and down like a yo-yo. More down than up. (like my attempts with a yo-yo)

    Trying to downgrade/cancel your @virginmedia is made harder than it ought to be! Perhaps of your customer service was better then I wouldn’t have made this request after all these years. Diabolical and shoddy! There was a time when I’d have only recommended them over competitors!

  • wfastronomer
    Nicholas Cross (@wfastronomer) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @andrewducker I did have two rather stressful conversations with Virginmedia a couple of months back. In the first one they offered me a terrible offer and said it was the best and moving took ages. They did this in a slow way, always trying to divert the conversation. 1/

  • bigtoodle
    Peter Tuffy (@bigtoodle) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes I have phoned yet again this morning so I think your organisation are considering some sort of compensation for the five weeks I have been without the service. No doubt it will be a paltry sum in comparison to what I pay every month.

  • louham74
    Louise Hamilton (@louham74) reported from Grangemouth, Scotland

    @virginmedia I just phoned again and was told they cannot order for me. So close to just cancelling this shoddy service 🤬

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Since yesterday afternoon. I was working so not entirely sure but approx 24 hours. £160 a month to be without even “free” channels. I am aware nothing is without fault but the poor customer service and lack of ability to locate/tell us what the issue is, is appalling.

    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia What complex issue? Can you explain what it is? Your service status says it’s fine. I have to wait a week for an engineer. Forgive me for being cynical.

  • seldomseenkid
    seldomseenkid (@seldomseenkid) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia internet down. Again. Why?

  • D3borah1404
    (@D3borah1404) reported from Livingston, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes!!! Constantly. Haven't had selected channels now for over 2 weeks and WiFi is abysmal! Seems to fall on deaf ears as the issue is never resolved ! Certainly won't be renewing my contract with yous if its not resolved anytime soon!

  • Dannymycockgma1
    Danny mycock Portsmouth/fife (@Dannymycockgma1) reported from Lochgelly, Scotland

    @virginmedia is the biggest load of ****. 8 days with no service and still no one has come out to sort it. ******* useless *****. I hope mr Branson is happy the ******* prick

    @virginmedia And idea what you have not replied to my post and now ignoring my DMs? Breach of contract and you are now in breach of your complaint procedure

  • IainSankey
    Iain Sankey (@IainSankey) reported

    @NommeDeTwit @virginmedia They seem to favour new customers, so I expect I'll have to change again in 2 years or threaten to. It's really stupid that companies no longer reward loyalty.

  • GazzaAdams
    Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    Hi @virginmedia This latest update appears to directly contradict the update you sent me earlier today. At 12:57, I was told that an engineer **was already on site and working to fix the problem**, with an estimated repair time of **18:00 today, 19/08/2026**. At 15:24, I am now being told that you have identified the problem and that an engineer **is on their way**, with the estimated repair time moved to **14:10 on 21/08/2026**. This is the original date that was stated 2 weeks ago. Could you please provide an accurate explanation of what is actually happening with fault **F012421201**? In particular: * Was an engineer on site earlier today, as stated? * If so, why is an engineer now apparently only “on their way”? * What has happened to cause the estimated repair time to move from this evening to Friday afternoon? * Is 21/08/2026 at 14:10 now a reliable estimate, or is this simply an automated placeholder? I appreciate that faults can take longer than expected to repair. What is frustrating is receiving contradictory information that makes it impossible to understand the actual status of the fault. Please provide a clear and factual update rather than another automated status message.

    @virginmedia - resorting to contacting you here as other channels have failed to help me get a connection to your services even though neighbours have it. Please reply in direct message - thank you

  • marcwalby
    The Yellow Head (@marcwalby) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia Interesting, this was going to be my move in October. I have never used the phone line and we don't watch any of the Virgin TV stuff. Was it really that hard to get just Broadband?

  • RyanCartiers
    RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported

    @virginmedia No, that has resolved nothing. A fundamental change to actually learning to provide timely customer service is required. 6 min. to schedule a call back 20 min. later - approx. 30min lead time Pick up phone and resolve issue <5 minutes. who needs math class?

    @virginmedia @heid_the_baw_ You ain’t sorry yer robbing bastards , existing customers get pumped silly for a shite service , and can’t even get some one to talk to in this country , just a **** mob to deal with let’s be honest

  • HathorsDaughter
    Sue Henderson 💙 (@HathorsDaughter) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia They're dreadful. When I enquired about social tariffs via their chat facility the agent spent ten minutes trying to add on extra fees. I decided then I'd never have anything to do with company which would exploit poor and disabled people. Enjoy your dinner and drinkies.

    @virginmedia In this digital era how long will this fix take to apply? I want to watch the sport on the TV screen NOT on computer or mobile device!
