Sam 🏴☠️ (@BRFCSamuel) reported from Kingswood, England@virginmedia This contact was via the phone. He did give a reason, the reason being he didn’t know what the problem was. So told us to sit here and wait with no Wi-Fi and hope it sorts itself out.
-
Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia The only issue I have with that is that every time I contact that number, the following happens: 1) I explain the issue, again 2) they advise me to follow the steps as are online, again, that I've already done, even though I say I've done them 3) they ask me to monitor 1/2
-
AngelMelSelector (@AngelMel2017) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia Thank you for your reply. He told me that the cheque had not been activated when I first called 5th June. I was told it would be sent out via check. He told me today it would take a further 2/3 weeks. Sadly was no help at all. 😒😥
-
Tony Cox (@coxtonycox) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia stop emailing and texting me every day threatening to fine me £100 for the non return of your equipment. On 23 August I booked for one of your engineers to collect it on 13 September. This poor customer service is one of the reasons I left Virgin after 10+ years.
-
The Pistol from Bristol (@pistolpete303) reported from Kingswood, England@virginmedia trying to call 789 this morning. Either does not connect or getting an engaged tone. Also website not working correctly. Is there a problem as need to speak with you ASAP?
-
Blood Claw Bob (@Clottedone) reported from Bristol, EnglandHey @virginmedia could your sales team STOP trying to call me everyday, I’ve told them I’m not interested and blocked the number but y’all somehow just keep calling and leave voice mails. I’m already a customer so please just take that as a IM NOT INTERESTED!!!
-
Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia @bushwacka_ofc @nordoffrobbins virginmedia where can I email to complain? My VirginMedia Box won’t let me delete a number of things and my Internet is patchy at best! £83 a month for this ****? Every time you call you people you’re on hold or cut off!
-
graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England@virginmedia It's fixed now and it was a problem in the box down the road, almost 24hrs to fix it is a bit of a joke thou 🙄🙄
-
DavidJWood (@RedWoodyLFC) reported from Bristol, England@JaydMulligan @virginmedia Bs3 working 90% since about 9.30 this morning It went down about 10 mins ago but now up and running
-
Ruth Cottingham💙 (@ruthcottz) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia no Internet in BS16 1DY. I called 150. Your recorded message says service out until 3pm, as you're "working to improve services" in this area. Why didn't you tell us before?!
-
Tiffany (@lazy__goth) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia No, it doesn’t, and the internet goes down again within hours, usually in the evening when I presume there’s high usage. We’re in a loop - report issue, told issue is resolved, issue happens again.
-
Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England@virginmedia @virginhelp Yes. Have done this and spoken with your ‘fault management service’ who cut me off when I was explaining the problem.
-
Matt (@LetRIP) reported from Thornbury, England@virginmedia Quite the worst customer contact centre ever. Website does not offer phone or email contact. Only way to get web chat is to go to complaints page. 1 hour to get a 1 minute task done. Deliberately cut off twice. #poorservice
-
Derby Pascal (@derbypascal) reported from Bristol, England@virginmedia The service checker just says its down but doesn't tell me what's going on.
-
Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, EnglandHi @virginmedia @helpvirginmedia @VirginMediaCorp why won’t my Outlook connect to your server? No emails for 3 days. It’s an issue your end yet no help from your tech team.
-
Sarah (@sarahcliftonsc) reported from Kingswood, England@virginmedia help please. How do o get to choose a football game on the red button? It’s not working.
-
Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England@BookDreamerSal @virginmedia Having the same problem. Just called Virgin - it seems many people are too. They're trying to sort it.

mmhmm (@xhatne) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia Easy solution here, someone should invent a method to get the leaflet through the door, so it ends up in the house, but passers by can't see it so it isn't obvious that nobody is home.
-
Escape to the Garden (@JanetsEscapades) reported@virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!
-
Campfire Gin (@campfiregin) reported@virginmedia help! we need to remove the automatic Home Screen as it’s confusing my mum who has Alzheimer’s, i can’t believe anyone thought it was a good idea
-
DC (@dc250705) reported@virginmedia 13 hours until you notify by text that something is wrong…communication quite crap isn’t it. Now told not fixed until 0200
-
Kat Nycoll (@KatNyc1) reported@virginmedia I would like to make a complaint on behalf of my housebound disabled aunt who has been without any service since Friday- can’t get food, drs , or contact anybody This is a disgrace Your staff won’t connect me to complaints team
-
Kev Crane (@KevCrane41) reported@BonesE78 @virginmedia I have the same reply, I've sent them a dozen messages, including photos and videos of the streaming box not working but my Alexa still able to say date and time. Not interested, just saying I have to call them from my landline, I don't have one. The service is pathetic.
-
Paul O'Brien (@PaulOBrienKil) reported@virginmedia @MizzCQ I strongly urge anyone thinking of subscribing to @virginmedia to NOT do it. Took over a hour to get through to customer service & they still won't fix their mistake. Shambles of an organisation.
-
Malcolm Sillick (@Malcolm_Sillick) reported@LeilaniDowding @EE Lellani, it's not just EE, it's everyone. Even those on cable (Virgin Media) still have to have the phone plugged into the router. Seems like a good idea, until you get a power cut (which can be supported by a back-up battery, which is NOT given as standard) If the internet goes down, then so does your phone. Great if you have a mobile, but if you live in an area with a poor mobile signal, so reply on 'Wi-Fi calling' in the house, then when the internet goes down, you also have no mobile service. It's called progress!!
-
William (@William232393) reportedI had Virgin Media - for 10 hours, I also had Virgin Money, I will never EVER touch anything at all with Virgin in front of its name.
-
Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported@IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????
