Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England@virginmedia That is really poor. It should be for Virgin to sort not the public. I spent an hour on the phone on Thursday speaking to a next to useless overseas call centre.

-
Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye
-
Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

-BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

-
David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported@virginmedia are in top 3 worst companies I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. They may even be top. Rude, expensive, evasive, and unreliable. What started as a simple investigation into switching for cost reasons has now made me resolute in my decision! Disgusting!
-
Paul Matthews (@Pmatthews123) reported@virginmedia VM r an absolute joke I am trying 2 switch back 2 sky & there is delay with the new broadband but VM won’t allow me 2 cancel the TV part & just keep broadband till sorted (end of my contract) & going 2 charge me ridiculous amount of £ - WONT EVER B HVING VM AGAIN
-
kevan ramsdale (@KevanRamsdale) reported@Claim_Respond_V I appreciate Virgin Media complying with the EA2010 trying to dictate the terms you provide a service is both unlawful & arrogantly ignorantly rude #disabledhatecrime you can find my details through my account!
-
Martinayres65@outloo (@Martinayres65o1) reported@virginmedia it’s now been an hour since the promised call from you. Given we have been without broadband & TV since Friday I would have thought you would make it a priority. Seems Virgin doesn’t care about its customers. Happy to take money whilst delivering no service
-
andrea stevenson (@AngeStevenson) reported@virginmedia hi! I keep getting a message saying to upgrade my virgin box to get sky Atlantic - is it easy to install myself, is it a case of using the same wires as my existing box so a quick change over? Also my internet is often very poor, I assume this won’t affect the box?
-
Stu Plays XD 🎮 (@StuPlaysXD) reported@virginmedia honestly hindsight is great because if I had just waited I wouldn’t of gone with yourself as a provider. £90 a month for constant drops in internet / tv. Your stream box is useless. Massive thumbs down 👎 would not recommend. Should of just renewed with @skytv 👍
-
Imran (@imran_khan404) reported@virginmedia Wifi is getting connected but it is showing "No internet access". I am not getting internet. Talk to your customer support multiple times.
-
Kevin Nash (@KevinDNash) reported@virginmedia @keithapearson Virgin media should not be able to trade in UK, horrid company, I don't miss speaking to India, South Africa to name but two.
-
Sean Pearson (@soapyrct) reported@mobily_uk @virginmedia Because they expect lots of folk to either not realise or just pay anyway, its also why they make it so difficult to call. Funny you can join and change everything on line except cancel! Virgin are THE worst company for service.
-
Adz (@MrAdz259) reported@virginmedia I sent a notice of cancellation on 16/03/26. So my service would end and be disconnected on 16/04/2026, as advised by one of your customer reps.
