✖️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
-

Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia That's my issue; in terms of service, it is resolved. Thr cable was previously buried (all be it not that deep), & I would have liked it to be again. My suggestion was leave slack so I could bury it. That message wasn't passed on to the 3rd party engineer. What would you advise?
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service
-

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!!
-
VenusEnvi (@VenusEnvi) reported from Grays, England@virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!
-
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?
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 4/ I work from home so asked what can I do in the meantime? No help given. I asked to speak to a supervisor. Waited 15 mins to speak to Supervisor ( 45 mins total already spent on phone)..
-
Mark 🏴 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandBe careful if you ever want to cancel a @virginmedia account, I wrote to them, twice as per their T&C because you can never get through on chat or phone, they deny receipt of letters because you cant send recorded delivery so they just keep sending bills and chasing payments
-
Rachel Romain (@RERomain) reported from Chelmsford, England@virginmedia It has been almost 30 years since he was a new customer... 🙃
-
jordan lockey (@LockeyJordan) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I am not paying the bill until you fix your ****** internet plus your trying to scam us by raising our bill to £225 even though it's supposed to be £130 and we have never missed a payment
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal 💔
-
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
-
Tony Patis-Stannard (@tonyps1977) reported from Romford, England@virginmedia your service is shocking and spent 40mins on the phone to be told you can’t connect my call and to try again, you have my contact details get in touch with me as I want to speak to someone about the service I’m not getting…
-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!

JJ (@johnjoeoregan) reported from Manchester, England@stetopping Remember you did the piece late last year about Virgin Media Broadband being out for a day? It's now been down for six days in some parts of Manchester. Six full days and not a word from the company except automated messages.
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@virginmedia Hello. Broadband/internet has been down for a while this morning(three separate devices not working since mid morning). Is there a general outage or is this likely to be a local, to me, issue? In Scotland Thanks for any assistance you can give
-
AM (@itsmeitsmeandy) reported@bt_uk and by any chance if you @giffgaff can actually get of your backsides and at the very least give me a engineer appointment date been waiting a month now nothing maybe i should cut out the middle man and contact your friends @virginmedia directly
-
NWAKIBEYA (@_Nwakibeya1) reported@virginmedia @debbiecosway85 I’m having same issue, your services has deteriorated along the years.. the app don’t work, the website don’t work either.
-
lindahudson (@lindahudson66) reported@virginmedia @keithapearson @virginmedia Why don't you call your customer, do the decent thing.
-
Samuel Pierce (@Mrhalfandhalf8) reported@virginmedia hi there last few days my Internet has cut off between 3 to 7 when its been really warm this has happened before and yous have let me leave free of charge as it was never sorted out now its happening again been since Dec but was ok intill the good weather.
-
Donna Tudor (@donna2904) reported@keithapearson @virginmedia Couldn’t agree more. I’ve spent roughly 6 hours on chat talking to foreign robots and got nowhere. They should be fined for not having a uk call centre. I’ve gave my 30 days notice after 19 years as a customer. They’re a disgrace.
-
Ben C (@BenChubb4) reported@virginmedia Ive now been told that to get my ticket number, they will need to raise a new ticket further delaying the original problem resolution date. That cannot be true and doesn’t work like that in other organisations who use tickets and escalation points through a CRM system
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reportedDay 4 of poor followed by NO broadband service from good old @virginmedia. Fix now predicted to be by 29/4/26😡 Worryingly, none of their previous predictions have proved accurate Shocking and unacceptable performance #GetItSorted
-
Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported@entrustTMF @virginmedia Whereabouts are you out of interest? My daughter is working from home today at our house and says Virgin broadband has packed up. I'm in hospital for a few days so out of touch but wondering if problems are localised or nationwide. Thanks!
