    @virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.

    @_Lewis_A @virginmedia I had this problem and was advised to buy new cables, did that and it gets minimum 200mb now, also make sure all cables are really tight and fitted properly.

    @virginmedia — is there a number for existing (long term) customers to call to talk to a human about an issue? #support

    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Well I guess as it went down Wednesday afternoon and if all goes well back up tomorrow we will automatically qualify.

  • edshots
    the world's most copied Edward Moore (@edshots) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia The next slot was 28th April which I would not be in and so have taken 5th May. A loyal customer of about 12 years this a complete let down after arranging today from a previous cancellation on your company's part.

  • joozuk
    Julie Compton (@joozuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia absolutely sick of the lack of service over the weekend- trying to watch catch up and it constantly crashes, then doesn’t remember where I was actually up to. This isn’t good enough. What is going on? If it’s not sorted asap I’m off to @skytv

    Dear @virginmedia how many incompetent people (now on my 10th call in 2 weeks) before one of your staff get it right..No sooner had my tv, bb etc working then someone in your movers dept disconnects my service.

  • catt_hurman
    Catt Hurman (@catt_hurman) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia guess what? I still have no wifi. Our 8th engineer visit scheduled for today (this time rescheduled because they needed a permit for the work). Just had a text saying engineer will be here next Tuesday now. Livid does not cut it. What kind of service is this?!

  • Keldavey
    hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?

  • kevinri00714924
    kevin richardson (@kevinri00714924) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia So someone fraudulently set up an account in my name. Because I don’t know the password to something I didn’t set up I’ve now spent 5 hours on the phone to 5 different @virginmedia reps and a debt recovery letter. Never use @virginmedia #badcustomerservice #stress

  • Ashley_Rhysss
    #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

  • Gabarillo
    Gabby Harrington-Poole (@Gabarillo) reported

    Non stop problems with @virginmedia over the last couple of months. Today is exceptionally bad. I’m unable to work from home, not great when you’ve got press deadlines. Bet there won’t be any reduction on the direct debit they take! Time for an official complaint I think!

  • WiJayWhelan
    Jase Whelan (@WiJayWhelan) reported

    @virginmedia so 4 days later i receive this 😡Virgin Media Outage Update - Description: Service update. Broadband, Voice and TV fault F012405802. The latest update we have is: We have identified the problem and an engineer is on their way. The estimated repair time is now: 12/08/2026 13:00:00

    A-A-RON (@rising_lefty) reported

    @j_ball13 @virginmedia They were awful when my nan died. I told them so they could cancel everything, sent proof and still tried to charge each month.

  • Ca33ieKins
    Caz (@Ca33ieKins) reported

    @virginmedia Horrendous service! Complete outage all day today. TQ area. No apology. Just the usual standard dialogue. Not acceptable.

  • LiamGM90
    LiamGM ⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️ (@LiamGM90) reported

    @virginmedia Sort this problem you have up and down the country With both broadband and TV Cause it needs to be fix ASAP

  • shardon1980
    Shardon (@shardon1980) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t send DMs but update. Issue won’t be fixed until 14th August . Absolutely unacceptable. No notice or comms I had to check myself. I pay you a lot of money. To be over 2 weeks with no WiFi is unacceptable. No details either and your hotline has a wait time of over 45 mins.

  • boomerangjf
    Jackie (@boomerangjf) reported

    @virginmedia your service is diabolical ! We are still experiencing intermittent/reduction in service after being told it would be working properly from 29 July. I assume you will be expecting a reduction in payment from me?

  • DrealSMAK
    Militia Matt (@DrealSMAK) reported

    @PaulTurner140 @virginmedia Oh I know this. I did DM and they’ve given some instructions. If those don’t work I’ll be gone. Can’t be paying for rubbish service

  • j_ball13
    Jack Ball (@j_ball13) reported

    .@virginmedia your bereavement team are a nightmare. We’re trying to transfer account from my deceased parent but we’ve been told we have to immediately cancel within 24 hours? Baring in mind we haven’t got anything else sorted to continue? Is this policy you promote to everyone?

  • Navigator429
    The Navigator (@Navigator429) reported

    @virginmedia hi. I am an ex customer of yours but it seems my account is still active. I keep getting emails alerting me to someone trying to log into my account. How do I request my account to be deleted? You shouldn’t hold an active account for me if I’m not a live customer.
