    @virginmedia I am sorry, but what a shocking customer service, hardly speaking a word of english, patronising me as if I am setting it up wrong and going over what I have already done. Can I have someone english explain what us wrong. !!!!!

  • richardtaylor37
    richard taylor (@richardtaylor37) reported from Stapleford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, we are having issues connecting to the wifi throughout the house. The room the hub is in is good but the rest of the house is very poor, we have our children complaining that their games consoles won’t connect or buffering and glitching and it’s costing us a fortune.

    @virginmedia Still no return bag 3 weeks after you said you were sending it. Can’t speak to you because I’m not a customer. Sort it out please ASAP.

    I want to leave @virginmedia but they are hoping I lose the battle of how long can we keep this man on hold before he gives up” battle ..what a terrible company.

    @drummerwhitey @virginmedia Not sure if you’ve done this Steve but when I had issues and no joy I slated them on here every 10 minutes, they finally pulled me into a private chat room and I got things sorted

    @virginmedia This could not have happened at a worse time for me. I'm happy to make them cups of tea if they fix the fault a little sooner.

  • SmileyJMH
    Joanna Hayes (@SmileyJMH) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia just had call from 'Harry' in London, your technical department. Apparently I'm having issues with broadband speed... His employer ID was 194, apparently? He was shouty, in very loud place, couldn't tell me who I was. Please look into number 01323897224. Infuriating.

    Mr T O'regan (@Taidhgh) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia service in NG8 #Nottingham becoming an expensive joke. Now apparently likely to be intermittent until 3pm for 'improvements' but no notice given? Great service guys. #planning

  • sarjeantm01
    Michael Sarjeant (@sarjeantm01) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia We have an engineer booked for Monday but I don't believe this is really acceptable with the amount of money we pay each month we should be able to expect a service which works, I understand there will be issues but over 3 hours later nothing?

  • mattdowning5
    matt downing (@mattdowning5) reported from Selston, England

    @virginmedia How about just giving your customers reliably service for the extortionate prices. We can look after our kids as parents. You do your job as service providers. I don't want my kids in borstal

  • horseracingmama
    whatsitallabout!! (@horseracingmama) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia can’t wait till they read the feedback on the email survey they asked me to do they scored a massive 0 from me and no I would not recommend them and will never go back to them either!!

    Chris Newton (@chrisnewts) reported

    @virginmedia why is it so difficult to reduce your package. Numerous phone calls and messages and none of your employees can manage to take off items off my package. Please respond before I cancel completely. Appalling customer service.

    Josh McTighe (@JoshMcTighe94) reported

    @virginmedia Hi team, I had a complaint raised about lots of internet issues. I called up and accepted the good will gesture but after 6 weeks it has still not been credited.

  • Salfordoriginal

    @virginmedia Obviously a capacity issue and rate throttling going wrong!!!

  • jamesf61
    James Ferris (@jamesf61) reported

    @virginmedia Could you get any worse? 3 weeks of no reliable broadband. Customer service suggesting i cancel because they don't know when it will be fixed. Pathetic.

  • Si_67
    Si (@Si_67) reported

    @virginmedia Our broadband has recently started to fail on a daily basis. It has been fairly reliable until a couple of weeks ago. Yes, it comes back after a while, but this really isn't good enough in 2026, especially bearing in mind how much it costs. What's happening?

  • AllysonEdwards1
    Dr Allyson Edwards 👻 (@AllysonEdwards1) reported

    Having consistent problems with my @virginmedia broadband, & have just had the update that they hope to resolve the problem by Tuesday... I work from home, so how will it work to not have access to the internet for the next 2-3 days? I'm having to hotspot my pc.
