-
Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

-
LVWLVS (@lvwlvs) reported from Cheslyn Hay, England@virginmedia That was the first thing I tried but nothing happened. It’s only when I power off at the wall, wait a minute then power on that it changes. Right now it’s working fine but this has been a recurring problem this week.

Phil Queenan (@philq001) reported from Birmingham, England@Ian66232919 @virginmedia @02 have been awful and the reception is non existent, especially any where near Villa Park. May as well not take my phone out.
-
Martin Price (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia I have been but they couldn’t get a good-enough price and directed me to the self-service page but I get “customer-exclusion” at the end of the URL which tells me to use chat.
-
Chris Psaras (@chrispsaras) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia no broadband since yesterday afternoon, told engineers were on route but still no update. Your offshore call centre is also unhelpful and not able to offer any further information. Please can you help?
-
Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia afternoon. I’ve been on hold for 25 mins and when I finally got through the line went dead after security questions. My mum has been without her TV service for over a week. Last night an engineer was due by 6 o’clock and never showed. Another text stating the 26th
-
Howard Martin 💚 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England@virginmedia Can you please explain why, when I renewed my package in March you reduced my last invoiced bill to reflect the change & took by DD what you said you would! Now you say you will suspend my service because I underpaid? You took what you wanted!
-
jen (@jenkin99) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????
-
Ronnie Harris (@redron1975) reported from Walsall Wood, England@virginmedia Right then fools. How many times do I need to contact you to tell you how bad our internet is? I am so fed up with this service and wouldn't recommend you to my worst enemy. I cant wait to get service from someone reliable. Clowns
-
Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, EnglandEnded up just reconnecting my TP Link router, it seems the problems were with my Hub 5 because everything seems to be working fine now. Not great @virginmedia
-
Stu Jones (@StuJonesMusic) reported from Kidderminster, EnglandHi @virginmedia, I am in Kidderminster, Worcestershire (DY11) and my Virgin Media broadband connection is very poor this week. I have checked your website & apparently there are no issues in my area. I have also restated my access point/router twice but no improvement.
-
MJP - mastodonapp.uk/@mrmjprice (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Async live chat (WhatsApp) sucks as you let me text you with a problem, let it sit for hours, then close it down if I don’t reply within 5 mins and repeat. I’ll just ignore all the comms.

Iain Patrick (@iaindpatrick) reported@virginmedia hi guys. Internet out from just before 10.30am this morning. Status page says sorted by 3pm tomorrow (that its self is unacceptable) got a text saying service is restored, but its not, so why send a misleading message? Poor service and customer experience.
-
alex jones (@alex___jones) reported@virginmedia I can’t sign in as my email address has changed. No one at Virgin can be bothered to help. Complained numerous times. Shocking company
-
Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported@virginmedia This issue has been around for over 2 weeks, your CS staff are telling customers including staff members there is no issue and "just swap out to the stream boxes" which does not fix the problem! Between Virgin and @skytv there should be a months bill reimbursed for each issue!!
-
Gaz (@gazzawefc) reported@VirginMediaIE Day 3 of no Broadband.... cannot contact customer care, disgraceful carry on from Virgin Media....
-
💅🏼 (@mb26026) reported@ScouseBouncy @SkySports @virginmedia we are also having the same issue trying to watch, keeps freezing every time on the red button!
-
stevefairclough (@stevefairclough) reported@virginmedia What a shitshow. Possibly the worst experience I’ve had in my life trying to deal with your crappy AI bots… I’d appreciate a phone number….
-
Ralph (@RlphWigs) reported@virginmedia @Smallworth_xx Bet it wouldn’t take this long to fix if it was affecting premier league teams.
-
John Spencer 555 (@johnspencer555) reported@virginmedia Harlow here, Hub and TV down in afternoon, evening, and all night? It's back on this morning. As Hub does Telephone, it's difficult to find out what's happening.
-
PD1882 (@PD1_8_8_2) reported@virginmedia what’s wrong with your virgin media tv? Did an ‘update’ and now every time I turn on the tv it loads into TiVo and I have to go back to Virgin again. And now your red button for Sky sports doesn’t work. Tell me how to fix these issues, they’re maddening.
-
Chris Cooper 💚📻📺🎓⚽🏈 (@ChrisCoopsSport) reportedGreat start to the season for @virginmedia with red button games not working properly. Oh, it's not the Premier League so it doesn't matter.
