    @O2 Hi, I've been going around in circles for weeks. I'm an O2 and Virgin Media customer. I'm supposed to be in a Vilt package but mu data hasn't been doubled on the o2 end. Can this please be sorted asap

    This is what I get for being a customer for over 8 continuous years and then 5 years before that. This is awful customer service by Virgin media. #Virginmedia @virginmedia

    @virginmedia please sort your systems and processes out. I was due a call yesterday to discuss a complaint. Only to not receive it and for you to replicate the same error. #virginmediadown

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s been erratic all day on both connections and your service check says no issues identified. One minute it’s doing 40-60mbps then it’s just plain dead but shows a connection

  • joshuamasters_
    Joshua Masters🎥 (@joshuamasters_) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia hub still down in SW8 region. Box and hub are on. Ran tests everything fine. Can see WiFi to connect to, but not devices can connect. This started after last nights midnight update it seems.

    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Really losing my patience with Virgin media now. Down for 8 days been told 3 times it’ll be fixed within 24 hours but won’t send an engineer out

  • declan1968
    Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • Champs707007
    Stephen Champion (@Champs707007) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Again my Virgin Media broadband has shat itself. Shows it’s connected to the net but with zero download zero upload yet service checks says no problems In your area. Can’t wait to leave fed up of this

  • guydorrell1
    Guy Dorrell (@guydorrell1) reported from Wandsworth, England

    So @virginmedia wifi down in SW18 2 for the third time this week. Don’t ask me to check your status dashboard, this happens EVERY week. It’s a constant, systemic issue, please get an engineer to come out & look at local box. Paying £130/month for terrible service, fuming 🤮😡

    Appalling from @virginmedia today! The whole network in shambles today, no one working from has been able to do anything! Just spent 40 minutes listening to Footlose in their phone queue and as I got to the front, they put the phone on me! Absolute shambles!

    @andyburnham PLEASE READ THIS TWEET EVERYONE. IF ANY VIRGIN MEDIA STAFF AT BAGULEY MANCHESTER CALL CENTRE WHERE I WORKED WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR SLANDERING ME / FRAMING ME. THEN HERES PROOF THAT COMPANY ARE A BUNCH OF CRUEL UNETHICAL IMMORAL SCAMMERS YOU DONT THINK IF THEY CAPABLE OF DOING THIS TO THEIR CUSTOMERS WHAT THEY CAPABLE OF DOING TO A WOMAN THEY HATE AND NO DOUBT JEALOUS OF here’s some confirmed validated real evidence NOT THEM BEING FRAMED that the staff at Virgin media call centres were all pardoned allowed to scam MILLIONS of their customers Here is proof Copied and pasted from Google please refer to articles in the press that confirm this what I’ve tweeted here If you think moral decent people do this to their customers scamming them in a cruel cold way SEEK JESUS  Virgin Media was fined a record £28 million by Ofcom in July 2026 for deliberately making it difficult for customers to cancel their contracts and switch to rival providers. Investigation Findings The regulatory investigation covered calls made between January 1, 2022, and September 11, 2024. Ofcom found that MILLIONS of customer service interactions were mishandled to prevent or delay cancellations. Specific tactics included: • Deliberately dropping or hanging up calls when customers asked to cancel. Putting callers on hold for no reason to frustrate them Excessive and unnecessary call transfers between departments. Using a two-tier retention system where only specific agents were allowed to process final cancellations. THIS LOT ARE CONFIRMED CRUEL SCAMMERS

    I'm so unbelievably ****** off that @virginmedia have **** the bed with streaming Sky Sports + and not even taking responsibility for it. Trying to say there isn't an issue. We pay for a service and spend all day looking forward to watching the game and nope...doesn't work

    🇬🇧 Rob @No-Bull-Politics 🇬🇧 (@bull_robin56713) reported

    @virginmedia I'm sure I'm not alone in having asked you to reduce my service, such as cancelling a second set-top box, in order to reduce my bills. As you can see here I asked for my bills to be reduced in Jan 2024. Yet notice how those bills have crept up again ever since. There has been no increase or improvement in the service you provide to justify this. According to my analysis, despite having gained a better paid job recently, my net income is down 4.2% compared with 5 years ago. Like many, I am going to have to tighten my belt, and those bills that increase without any prior warning must be the first to go.
