Review: Absolutely terrible experience with Virgin Media. I’ve had constant WiFi outages, making it impossible to work or even use basic internet services. When I reached out to customer service for help, they were dismissive and unhelpful, only ever suggesting that I spend more money to “upgrade” instead of actually fixing the issue. Their lack of proper support has genuinely affected my mental health, adding unnecessary stress and frustration. On top of that, when I decided enough was enough and wanted to leave, they slapped me with a £250 cancellation fee, demanding it all in one go with no repayment options or flexibility. There was absolutely no sensitivity around financial difficulties, just a “pay up or else” attitude. Avoid Virgin Media at all costs—awful service, zero care for customers, and a money-grabbing approach that prioritises profit over people. The sum of money also changed from 250 to £200 so honestly don’t think they have a clue.

I’ve been a loyal Virgin Media customer for nine years, spending over £100 a month. Now, at a time when I need to cut costs due to my husband’s critical illness, Virgin Media is making it as difficult as possible to reduce my contract. Twelve months into an 18-month contract, the only way to lower my bill was to pay £214 and upgrade to a broadband package we don’t even need—just so they can squeeze more money from a family already struggling. Absolutely disgraceful. Once this contract ends, we’ll be taking our broadband business elsewhere. Virgin Media’s greed and lack of compassion are shocking. Avoid this company at all costs!

Lowest intertnet speed and worst support They promised high speed, and i have never seen it. They support doesn't work, just waste of time. They don't answer in whatsapp. It is so upset. Please avoid it, and i will cancel too.

Avoid at all costs! What a mistake I made not to check reviews before going for a VM contract! I have had a month of endless phone calls to them, queuing at times for an hour, just to be put through a dept that either refuses to help or puts me through to another dept. Customer service dept that are in India are useless, the ones based in UK are rude, have spoken to countless team leaders, floor managers (when there is one available, which is seldom), tech advisors- all promising to help and nobody ever does! VM ruined my Xmas, caused ne immense amounts of stress and time, and affected the resale value of my house! Literally EVERY other provider is better, don't even contemplate using them and don't get tempted by their sales spiel and fibre promises - once they hook you, you are roasted! Avoid like the plague!

My contract expired 4th December. I notified them a month in advance on multiple occasions that I intended to leave. Every single time without fail they ignored what I said and tried to sell me upgrades and new packages. I was also told that my new provider contacted them about the switch (I received emails from both Virgin and Sky confirming this). They then charged me for the month of December, after my contract expired. Not only that but about £40 more than the monthly value of my contract. I was furious and left a complaint. They replied that what they have done is legal and asked me to pay the bill. Because I did not want to go through extra hassle I just paid it. Now they have sent me another bill for the same amount for this month. I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to pay it and cannot really afford to pay it. I am devastated and wish that I never signed up to Virgin's internet. How is it legal for them to keep charging after your contract is expired?

I’ve had poor tv and Broadband quality for many weeks now and virgin have confirmed it’s their faulty cable that needs replacing. Their engineers have been scheduled to replace the cable on two occasions and both times they have failed to show up. No phone calls or explanations or apologies from virgin. They just don’t seem to care.

I was supposed to receive a hub from VM and took the day off. I called, both 02 and VM when the hub didn’t turn up. No help at all as usual. Received no feedback which seems to be normal nowadays. I put complaint in which I felt was necessary. As of yet no explanation.

Worst company and customer service ever. Don't ever use this company. UK based company makes a massive difference. Call centres in India that are rude and racist do not help. Avoid at any cost

I started my contract with you two months ago, but due to ongoing renovations at my flat, I was unable to install the broadband. Finally, yesterday, I attempted to set it up, only to discover that the broadband box was not brand new and I could not complete the installation. Of course, I contacted your customer service team for assistance. To my surprise, I was told that if I had called within the first 20 days after starting the contract, it would have been free to send an engineer to install the box. However, because two months have passed, I was informed that there would now be a £25 charge. This makes no sense to me. The installation would be the same, yet I am being asked to pay an additional fee simply because I have delayed the installation. ​I have already paid two bills without using the internet, and now I am being asked to pay an extra charge when I am finally ready to use the service. This feels both unfair and unreasonable. Other broadband providers who respect their customers are sending engineers to install equipment to ensure everything is working correctly, yet Virgin seems to charge customers for the same service at a later time. Furthermore, when I requested an email explaining why I am now being charged £25, the operator I spoke to refused, stating that this could only be discussed over the phone. I regret deciding making a contract with them. Please avoid if you don't want stress in your life. *And another thing: I wanted to raise a complaint, but their online form can't be filled (the name and address).

AWFUL, AWFUL SERVICE. AVOID LIKE A PLAGUE. We asked to move address a month in advance, and instead they started sending us new bills a week later! We contacted them and explained the situation, and after waiting on hold for 30 minutes they disconnected our wifi service and HUNG UP!! Then followed another 2 hours of calls and being hung up on to get them to turn it back on and re-instate our contract for the remainder of the month. Appalling treatment and incompetent company. Now we are ending our service with them forever, and they are still demanding an early exit fee. If I had the time to take them to court I would...

Completely Disgusting Experience I have signed a new plan (broadband + TV) At that moment, they notified my current provider of the termination. Virgin postponed twice already the installation date I am waiting for almost 2 months now. I have just cancelled the new contract and will be with my current provider. Shame!

Avoid Virgin Media at all costs. This company is beyond corrupt and will wreck your credit file without warning, justification, or even basic communication. Their customer service is an absolute disgrace, and their broadband is a joke. Anyone even considering signing up with them needs to seriously reconsider. After being a loyal customer for over seven years—never missing a single payment and always honoring my contracts—they’ve destroyed my credit file out of nowhere. No warning, no acknowledgment, nothing. This is not just incompetence; it’s outright exploitation. Virgin Media is the most disgraceful, dishonest company I’ve ever dealt with. Stay far away.

Didn't send us a single bill then threatened to cut us off. When we rang customer services on multiple occasions they were utterly hopeless.

I have been misled by this company, which has been holding onto my money and asking for further deposits. Despite my initial payment yielding no outcomes, they continue to require additional funds before I can withdraw. I am thankful to have found a dependable organization like AMDARK LIMITED ** C0M that aided me in recovering all the funds they were preventing me from accessing.

I wanted to turn a profit when I used this broker to invest my hard-earned money. But after achieving some early winnings, I ran into a lot of problems when I went to withdraw my money. The broker gave absurd explanations in response to my persistent questions. In a desperate attempt to find help, I turned to an industry specialist for advice, and he suggested that I get in touch with a specialized company that [deleted by editor]s assets from scams and schemes like mine. After doing a thorough examination, I came to the conclusion that M-E-R-S-E-Y-H-I-P.C-O-M was the best firm. I called them right away and gave them a briefing. They said they would do everything they could to help me as quickly as they could.
