    @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/

    @virginmedia TiVo box down... No broadband or TV for the last hour in EH4. Called and your tests say there is nothing wrong but try resetting the box. 🤔 Done 3 times while waiting 50mins on your customer 'No' service answering my call! 😡

    Friday night powered by 5G since @virginmedia delivery via @YodelOnline seems to have disappeared into the ether. So work was painfully slow, and now I’m cleaning the fridge because, it seems everything in this 1860’s house is reliant on broadband. Thank god for @EE 📱

    @virginmedia I’ve no internet, phone or tv in South Edinburgh - following intermittent internet for days. Your fault checker says there is no service fault yet your website does not allow me to book an engineer. Can you help?

    @virginmedia how the hell do I get any sense from you guys? Eight days spent just trying to get an account sorted 🤬 your customer service is non-existent

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

    @virginmedia is the worst. Three days of off and on service has cost me significant time and money.

    Cost 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

    @virginmedia Hi, one of your little pavement brown boxes of cables is broken & missing its cover outside Dominos Pizza, North High Street, Musselburgh, Scotland. I've made it waterproof using a plastic bag and cable ties, but it will need to be repaired with a new cover. - SC

    @virginmedia what’s going on. No service alllllll day in EH14 area?! Working from home impossible today … great service!

    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.

    @virginmedia Thank you, but, hey...they didn't fool me...just thought you should know and maybe warn others. I've had 'it' before but fortunately never been 'taken in'.

    @virginmedia Stupid question!

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

    @virginmedia The phone is not working and your engineer was arranged to call today between 1.00 and 6.00pm needless to say he did not arrive or give me a call to arrange another day.

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

    @virginmedia what an absolute farce - have now tried twice to simply upgrade my broadband speed but end up stuck in live chat for over an hour each time with no progress - why do I need to go through your overloaded customer service just to do this?

  • lynettehiggins3
    lynette higgins (@lynettehiggins3) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes it is telling me there are no issues in my area and that I should have registered re issue - I did yesterday and today, do your departments or records not get joined up, completely shocking service

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

    @virginmedia I managed to find a phone number to call you. The message 'don't contact us unless you need to' isn't great is it! Follow up text asks me to rate VM on the basis of my interaction. Not fair is it. Not the help desk fault if everything else is so bad.

    @miaKJKJ22 @Gary1165 @virginmedia Working from home too. A real pain. They told me there was a problem in the area, then made up manifold times that it would be fixed. Often pushing forward the fix by a risible 56 minutes! Then a text yesterday saying it WAS fixed(app said perfect too)...when it obviously wasn't

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

    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??

    Anyone having issues with Virgin Media TV in the NG16 area? Broadband fine, TV nothing working.

    Eden Gem (@edengem) reported

    @virginmedia A pop up message stating virgin has blacklisted my a/c. Gadget rescue has sent a list of complicated instructions saying I’ve sent too many suspicious emails! Not true: I use this for work. Is it O2 causing the issue?

  • entrustTMF
    entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported

    @RogerGreen2009 @virginmedia I'm definitely going to be reviewing my options at the end of my current @virginmedia contract as they've been dreadful in terms of communication and help when the chips are down(day SEVEN of outage)😢 Sadly, I've only just renewed my contract... Thanks for the suggestions👍
