-
Wesley Hammer ⚒️ (@CouchPotatoUK) reported from Romford, England@virginmedia for a media company that sells amazing broadband, your website is terrible. Just goes in circles, doesn't let you change packages online. Terrible.
-
Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Romford, England@virginmedia Yes I have checked the service status, it is the first thing I do & all was fine. The issues is with the cable Ethernet & the phone connection in the Hub 4. I don’t use your WiFi setup as my house is fully cabled for networking. I am a Network Architect, so have done basic tests
-
Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, EnglandSo trying to cancel @virginmedia services and the stalling tactics being used are not cool. If customers want to leave they have every right to do so. Let them go.
-
Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England@virginmedia I've been having problems with my phoneline and it is currently dead, can't make or receive calls. An engineer came on Friday but its still not working. Charges have been appearing on my phone bill for calls I have not made. This has happened twice since November.
-
Pippa Crowther (@getpipfit) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Thankyou. The site still won't let me check status.. reported this.. says your site down. I've now spoken to someone as I need Internet for work. Someone coming out on Saturday!
-
Liam Stanley💙 (@SeasideAPNP) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@AnnG50707311 @virginmedia I always haggled with them and got them to come in at new customer prices. Surprising what they will give you when you let them think you are leaving. Also let them know what other companies will offer you to become a customer as they may match the offer
-
Janet E Baldwin 🌸 (@JanetEBaldwin) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@_andy_pandy_ @virginmedia Outrageous 😱 I’d cancel my subscription.
-
Simon Norris (@sinozza) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@ThatNickElse @virginmedia Did you get through in the end Nick...I'm having similar problems to you.
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia A number of times. But let’s be honest, they’re nothing but messengers. There is no escalation, and they can’t even call the construction company to escalate issues. As someone who has worked within many projects teams, and mapped business processes, yours is simply shocking
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia No as I look after an elderly lady with parkinsons on Thursdays which means she doesn't get to get out of the house if I don't see her. So it's booked in for Friday. What help doninhave till then? Or reimbursement? I'm free every day after 3pm & I'm free Tuesday all day
-
jordan lockey (@LockeyJordan) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Your customer service is the worst I have seen
-
Going for Gold (@Gold_Accounting) reported from South Ockendon, EnglandSHAME ON YOU @virginmedia refusing to send an engineer to repair my 87 year old mum with a heart condition who needs a 24/7 line for her emergency button. Making her wait ANOTHER 6 days
-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England. @virginmedia down yet again? Not able to watch On Demand and error messages. Plus their website is down. 🙄
-
Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia I'm sorry for the two poor support staff who are trying to sell us new remote controls, routers and O2 sims - for more money - till we hit the nuclear option and say we're leaving to get what we're asking? We're loyal customers; why does it need to get to that?
-
Richard Noble (@Richard09499442) reported from South Ockendon, England@virginmedia my wifi is terrible, how do i go about getting some boosters so that my signal is as strong as you promise? I can't access the app (thats another unresolved problem!) Also how do i go about receiving the £100 credit that you also promise? Thank you.
-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from Romford, EnglandSo @virginmedia want £288 to cancel a contract I've had since 2018. Can I get through to anyone to speak about it? NO!!
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I raised the complaint on 14/7 and I’ve heard nothing
-
✖️𝔻𝕖𝕒𝕟 𝕄𝕔𝔽𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕒𝕟𝕖✖️ (@NoddyMaccy) reported from Romford, England@virginmedia I contacted customer services for an update on my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I was informed by your Twitter account I wouldn’t need to send my current phone back until I receive my new one. I was then informed by the gentleman on the phone my new phone won’t be sent until I send this
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia No issues... I need to speak to someone I've tried everything... Reboot, reset and nothing is working
-
Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia Think it's more to do with the upgrade work then; when I select Help from the Help & Settings menu, the screen goes blank. I'm thinking it needs a network connection to work. Any plans for a Hub with built in 02 sim to increase connectivity? Currently hot spotting my phone.

RosyPosy 🌹 (@RosyPosy_kitteh) reported@IamCarrieagain @virginmedia .@virginmedia truly shame on you, do you realise how difficult it is for disabled people to be without the internet, unbelievably bad practice, and after the difficult time you also gave to my elderly Mum I’m glad not to be a customer too, if this is the way you provide a service.
