Very disappointing service from Virgin…

Very disappointing service from Virgin Media. The internet is extremely slow and keeps cutting off throughout the day. This is now the 5th time I have had this issue, and nothing has improved. The same broadband problems keep happening again and again. It is unreliable and very frustrating, especially when working or streaming. For the price paid, this level of service is unacceptable. I would not recommend to everyone and I will not go ahead in future.

I’ve had 3 installation appointments…

I’ve had 3 installation appointments and my order cancelled 3 times. It’s impossible to speak to anyone in the uk.
Virgin have been emailing the incorrect email address for my local council to get permission to dig the street. I have given the call centre the correct email address twice and have now been told my installation has been cancelled for the third time as you’ve had no reply.
How many times do I have to pass on the correct email address 😡

Steer clear for the sake of your mental health!

Impossible to get through to technical support, tried again today Thursday on chat @4.49pm, they responded to say 'you've contacted us outside our chat hours, so no agent is available. Our chat hours are Mon-Fri 9am to 5pm????? Steer clear if you want to keep your sanity!

Virgin media horrendous customer service…

Virgin media demanding return of equipment which their own technician took away. Non payment of promised £50.71 compensation for loss of TV package. Inability to resolve via their own platform. Probably switch provider as their customer service is horrendous.

NEVER even consider getting your…

NEVER even consider getting your broadband from Virgin Media. In 20 years of using different providers I have never experienced such a horrendous service. Within 6 weeks of taking out broadband with them we had 2 full outages in a 4 week period. The first was for 3 days, no service at all. Then 4 weeks later it was out for OVER A WEEK! 8 days with NO internet at all. As I work from home this impacted my job massively.

After asking to leave because of having no internet at all for 11 days in a 4 week period, they tried charging us £380 for a cancellation fee. After much back and forth and multiple complaints, we were allowed to leave free off charge, and have now moved on to another provider.

Awful internet service and even worse customer service! Avoid at all costs!

The Philippines services is the worst…

The Philippines services is the worst DISGUSTING service ever. My old email address was closed down back in March. I can not get into my account. My husband has gone mad and I am trying to get an injunction to have him removed from the house. So a simple pin to verify who I am would make life easier like Barclays and Natwest do. Not stupid questions set up 16 years ago! I'm 52. Please can you use a pin sent to your mobile to verify you. This system doesn't work for women fleeing the home that are trying to freeze the account that is in my name.

Virgin Media has no honour or pride in customer service

I have complained about VM many times. Complaints to them are fobbed off with platitudes. Back in June it said it would send me a cheque for monies owed after we finished our contract with the company in January. That cheque has still not arrived. That this company customer service gets away with what it does is a disgrace.

I would like to give a huge thank you…

I would like to give a huge thank you to Dinesh for the outstanding support he provided. From the very beginning, he was incredibly kind, respectful, and professional. He answered every single question I had with patience and made sure I understood everything clearly.

Throughout the conversation, I genuinely felt respected and valued as a customer. Dinesh went above and beyond to help me, and his positive attitude completely turned my day around. By the end of our chat, I felt genuinely happy and relieved knowing everything had been taken care of.

In my opinion, employees like Dinesh are a huge asset to Virgin Media. He absolutely deserves recognition—and honestly, I believe he deserves a pay rise for the exceptional level of customer service he provides. Thank you again, Dinesh, for making this such a fantastic experience. You're amazing!

Kind regards

Impossible to speak to a human at virgin media.

Have tried all day to speak to a human instead of the bot which is useless. Virgin media sent me a message offering a free upgrade from hub 3 to hub 5 . Details on how to apply in my email but nothing shows. The same offer is on my account when using the app but nothing
shows way to get in touch with a living being at virgin media . Terrible customer service .

Have tried numbers given 150 unable to connect. Telephone number is to a bot not a human. Watsap is also only a messaging system cannot speak to a person on the phone

1. Given install date of 28th ( adult needs to be home )
2. They arrived on the 27th ( I wasn't home ) after visit (27th)they said they would need construction work to fit cable ( we have 2 access points and they only checked one , one is blocked but the other isn't... Sky informed me of this as they had the same problem, but they sorted it without issue) then updated install date as 11th aug .
3 . Online advisor said they'd be back on the 28th .
4. You guessed it no show on the 28th .
5 . Spoke to advisor ( hard to understand)who promised they be back 29th ...
6 . Yep no show 29th !
7. Online chat said they be here tomorrow 30th .
They keep telling me I don't need to be in but the engineers missed the second access point the first time so I do need to be in .
I've now wasted nearly the whole week sorting something out that had they turned up when arranged it could have all been sorted .

Absolutely disgusting customer service

Absolutely disgusting customer service.
I have emailed, no joke, over 10 times trying to receive a response. Virgin Media do not cover the area I am moving to, and despite showing them proof of new tenancy etc have still charged me over £600!!! Do you think I can get a hold of anyone or a response? Not at all. It doesn't seem to matter who I speak to or email.

Hi Marissa,

We're sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

We understand how frustrating it must be to be moving home to an area where Virgin Media services aren't available and then find yourself concerned about charges on your account. We also appreciate how disappointing it is to send multiple emails and feel that you're not receiving the responses or support you're looking for.

We're sorry to hear that this has left you feeling let down, particularly after providing documentation relating to your move.

If your move is taking place outside of our network, you can find information about moving home and the options available here:
