GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

-
Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.
-
Judge Drokk | Mark Hellewell (@JudgeDrokk) reported from Darton, England@virginmedia Well I don't know if the problem has been restored at virgins end I received help and advice from an outside source who showed show me how to work around the problem with manual DNS entries. But for me, working now. Thanks.
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

-
Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for
-
Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England@virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Yes it’s signal and tried o2 got nowhere xx thanks for the reply
-
Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!
-

-
The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.
-

Colin (@Colinmc7t) reported@virginmedia Yeah yeah yeah absolutely useless service
-
MerlinJ & the Dowager. (@HamsterSick) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia I can't stand virgin I will not be renewing that contract November **** that. I dont pay failure
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported@alan_reddish @virginmedia Day 34 here. And no proper answers such as whether any engineers have actually been out to try to fix things. Just stock answers from the @virginmedia script.
-
Harry M (@HNMZY16) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia It's not Virgin Media themselves that do this btw. Some outside leaflet drop company gets hired to do it and they don't give a **** where they put that leaflet.
-
sarah (@Mears1Sarah) reported@DAZNBoxing Not working in @virginmedia
-
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!
-
Craig (@wolve585) reportedWhat a joke @virginmedia are! 2 weeks, twice "the system isn't working", 3 times been promised call backs to sort the account of my dad who has passed away and nothing! As if its not a hard enough time as it is! I was going to keep the account but this has made me want to cancel!
-
Master Roshi (@MasterRoshi1667) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia They really are a pack of useless *****. Typical VM. Takes your money and a shite service. We all accept it anyway because they are allowed to get away with it. It doesn’t pay to be loyal any more.
-
Darren (Dazza) (@scouse9000) reported@CheekyVic @virginmedia Yes I would totally agree with that! I had to get in touch with one of the directors to sort my account out! She waved the massive bill if I dropped my complaint!! We had closed the account 5 months before that! Shocking customer service!!
