  With the intro of new dedicated Gigabit lines in my street I can't wait to switch over and leave Virgin Media for good. 3x internet has gone down this week and I just called VM. The systems there are down and gotta call back in 3hrs..... useless

  Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported 10 minutes ago from Westhoughton, England

  @virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)

  @virginmedia Yeah I've seen that already thanks, but it's not going to help the kids with accessing homework online. no I am not on a B account as of yet as I have only just started out in the last week 😑 but even if I was on a B account it would still be off so doesn't make any difference

  @virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.

  @virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

  Very poor service from @virginmedia for a friend of mine in the Stockport area. No TV now due to failure of upgrade, engineer can only go on Tuesday. Better off with Sky!

  DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported 33 minutes ago from Litherland, England

  @virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.

  @virginmedia In this room have always had problems but just not like today. The router is just over 2 metres from box.

  Ian Hawksey (@ShanklyBob77) reported 47 minutes ago from Aintree Village, England

  Absolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.

  @virginmedia Yet again an intermittent service in Area 20 BL1 2 this has now gone beyond a joke, paying for a service and not getting it

  @virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia

• 
  Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported 49 minutes ago from Eccleston, England

  @virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.

  🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported 51 minutes ago from Wigan, England

  @Virgin @virginmedia I've had no Internet now for 14 days and my bill is due in 2 days. This is disgusting service, your call centre staff are useless, your engineers are useless, this is appalling for £52 a month. Sort the problem out now.

  @virginmedia What about poor O2 customers who have been trying for months, with loads of wasted hours of listening to hold music, to unlock their accounts. I have been told 17 times now that it would be sorted, still not sorted. I think I’ll need to move all my family’s phones.

  Waqar (@Waqar83971366) reported 5 minutes ago

  @Ofcom Regardless of the fines they've still not improved with broadband, customer service and their prices are always high yet can't provide good service and quality of signals and equipment.. they need a full upgrade in equipment, signal quality and customer service @virginmedia

• 
  Shaun Key (@SKEY2011) reported 6 minutes ago

  @Stsantek @virginmedia Hello, i work in the industry, as bad as Virgin are, and they are bad, the responsibility is the EE salesmen who placed the order without knowing your termination charge, whenever signing up i check for things like this so things like this dont happen.

  Shelton (@CBTwizard) reported 12 minutes ago

  Good @Ofcom 28 million fined to the parasites that are Virgin Media. Good. I have been victim to this horrible pass on pass on (6+ hours on the phone) department to department and back to start again, as well as a 2 year new contract without my consent (early termination £500 being chased for, after 2000+ disconnections in a month, email proof, text proof, delayed line fixes) list goes on. Parasites, charging elderly people £70+ for like 100mb Maybe @MartinSLewis applied some well deserved pressure. If I'm not mistaken @dshensmith had issues too.

  Minute Market (@Minutemarketio) reported 13 minutes ago

  Virgin Media Gets Fined 🫰 Virgin Media was hit with a £28 million, or roughly $37 million, fine by UK regulator Ofcom for repeatedly making it harder for customers to cancel contracts between 2022 and 2024. That is not just a consumer-rights story. It is a warning for telecom and subscription businesses that “retention tricks” can become regulatory liabilities. In a market obsessed with recurring revenue, cancellation friction is now a legal risk.

  @Stsantek @virginmedia Virgin are poisonous. We have 1 GB, we’re lucky if we get half that, hard wired. The patronising pleb on the phone said “you must be too far away from the router” I’ve just had a renewal quote for 48.99 a month but a new customer can get it 29.99 (on the website as we speak) Scum
