    Virgin WiFi is up and down all the time, but now it's really down and not working. Can't even turn on my Alexa smart lights so stuck in the dark and soon landlines will be WiFi so that won't work either. @virginmedia #noservice

    @virginmedia No, I have TV service only and the live chat agent said I would get the compensation form.

    @BBCWatchdog I was without TV service with Virgin Media for over a week this month, could only use chat bot, eventually a live chat with a person because I took to twitter, but they couldn't help me either. Still waiting for the comp form they said would come automatically.

    @virginmedia why can I not get through to speak with your customer services? The 1st time, the call centre cut me off. 2nd time the phone options didn't work. Your online Quick Pay is not working. I just want to pay my broadband bill 🤷🤷🤷

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.

  • Mrspdyer
    Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Finally sent letter on 28 September and on checking my account realised you’ve got wrong email address attached to complaint file. Funnily enough you have correct email address for sending bills. 3/

    @virginmedia Just spend over an hour on live chat/phone. Your service means we’ll be nearly two weeks without internet!

  • dionnepat2000
    Dionne (@dionnepat2000) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia I shouldn’t have to. It’s a new issue that other people are having too. I can turn off wifi on my phone and it’s fine. Please tell them who fix things to fix it. Not only me

    @virginmedia @NatGeoUK "We hope to fix this by 25 January at 16:00" But what's this? Do you really imagine a world where people don't have to work and can stand all your frequent service disruption? #daylight_robbery

  • spandya1
    Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?

    Absolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

    John Sanderson (@SanderjoJohn) reported from Barnet, England

    @MartinSLewis @bbc5live Had replacement windows from a local company 18 months ago and they were excellent but I will tell you the worst people I have ever dealt with - Virgin Media, even worse than British Gas used to be.

  • DerrickSWB
    Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

  • sam_batty
    Sam Batty (@sam_batty) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia We’ve been disconnected early. Been trying for nearly an hour on your live chat but no help provided at all. Still waiting.

    Good old @virginmedia down yet again. Need to find a reliable provider. Sick of this.

    Harry (@Rzchy) reported

    @joshstirz No one I play with gets the issue just assumed you was on virgin media aswell interesting , no fibre available in my area so I guess I’m just handing out free wins / map leads vs west players forever now

  • kellyan99166027
    kellyann (@kellyan99166027) reported

    @virginmedia since 1pm yesterday afternoon we have been told that the problem is being fixed. Every time the estimated time comes up you change it again. We have little to no information about what’s happening. Could you please advise on when. It will be corrected ?

  • Samina_masood3
    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @virginmedia we’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. It is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently

  • Rzchy
    Harry (@Rzchy) reported

    Does anyone on virgin media get 15% packet loss and 225 ping on west host? It’s been happening for about 3 weeks now got to be a fix somewhere

  • Rusty_Barnacle
    Dave #oafc (@Rusty_Barnacle) reported

    @virginmedia have to say I've really enjoyed spending over 15 hours on the phone and 10 of those on hold this week trying to sort my contract out because your salesperson didn't sort it properly. I've been trying to cancel for 2 hours this morning and been left on hold again

  • loldiplo
    Diplo (@loldiplo) reported

    . @virginmedia can you explain why your servers are down again. It’s pathetic constantly happening and conveniently falls on a bank holiday weekend so most of your customers will be without service for 2 days. Disgrace of a company.

  • christobinsings
    Cristoir Toibin (@christobinsings) reported

    @virginmedia absolute shambles of a service today, missed the football and now no Internet again for the last hour. Happy to send me 4 messages to say you've fixed "the issue" Time to move to another provider.

  • av47ar
    av47ar (@av47ar) reported

    @virginmedia are your online chats for "upgrades" AI powered? The responses are terrible. So adios after 20+ years of good and bad service but mainly good. Your renewal prices are shocking though. #noexistingcustomerloyalty

  • nottmsteve
    Nottmsteve 🇬🇧 (@nottmsteve) reported

    Had an appt this pm for @virginmedia to come for this phone line transfer. It's bad enough that they want a 5hr window, even worse when they don't show up. Went to lodge a complaint but tells me I'm not the a/c holder. It's been in my name for over 30 years! I'm not best pleased
