Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 6,461 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently reported poor service, including unreliable connections, slow speeds, and unexpected outages. Many found customer service unhelpful, difficult to reach, and often rude, with agents providing misleading information. People also struggled to contact the company, facing long waits or disconnections. Reviewers expressed dissatisfaction with pricing, citing unexpected increases, high exit fees, and feeling overcharged for the service received, while engineer appointments were often missed or rescheduled without proper notification. However, some customers also noted positive interactions with staff, praising specific individuals for being professional, helpful, and efficient during installations, problem-solving, or when offering good deals.

Appalling. Still waiting for a refund 5 weeks later

It has been over a month waiting for a refund of £105 and still not paid. They are very quick to take money from you but seem to have no intention of paying back what is owed.

No wonder they got given the largest fine ever issued by OFCOM.

Absolutely appalling. If I could rate them zero stars I would

Extremely frustrating and difficult cancellation process – Contract already expired

I contacted Virgin Media because my contract had already expired and I wanted to cancel my services, as I had arranged a switch with a new provider (Rise Fibre).
From the beginning, the experience was incredibly frustrating and customer-unfriendly. I was transferred between several agents (Acharya, Russel, Carllynne Jean, Amit, etc.), had to repeat the same information multiple times, and was constantly offered new deals even after clearly stating several times that I did not want to renew.
When trying to proceed with the One Touch Switch, my new provider informed me that Virgin Media was denying the request. After multiple long conversations, the agents kept insisting on a 30-day notice period, even though my contract had already expired. I was told I would continue to be billed during this time, despite having a new service already installed.
The entire process felt deliberately complicated and designed to make cancellation as difficult as possible. I wasted several hours over multiple days just trying to end a service I no longer wanted. The customer service was unhelpful, repetitive, and showed very little respect for the fact that I was no longer under contract.
Case Number: C-2207262832
This has been one of the worst customer experiences I’ve had with any company. I will definitely not recommend Virgin Media to anyone.

The absolute worst company!!! No recommend at all. Check what people is saying…

Have no ideas how can I deal with them… No recommend this company at all!!!!

I have two house to using virgin, once I want to cancel one of that as contract finished, then they disconnected the line which I am using…

Called them, they reconnected and send a brand new contract with 24month length which I have never ever expected! Tried to sort it out, no way… getting more stress, I leave it.

The line which want to cancel still live and took an other few month going on…

Later I need move house, asked move my package.
They booked one day for connection, all looks ok. After moved my Netflix which included in my package not working, then I noticed they send again brand new contract with big bill?!! Same package price from £28 to changed £78!! No ideas how they calculated outstanding balance is £260.15???

Contacted many times, they asking all the story then pass to an other person, and repeated the story then pass me again to an other person, then this person asked again the story then later just out of chat without any mention!!! Took more than 3hours still not been resolved!!

Yesterday contacted them again, the stories repeated, spent more than 3hours again. Later they told me resolve team will call me back, when I asked their number, been told can’t give me?!… They keep repeating “Don’t worry at all, this is not your fault” and no anything sort it out!

This morning, I noticed they disconnect the internet?!!
I am tired deal with them now… I have no idea … feel headache when imaging contract them and tell the story again, spend an other few hours..

I am just regretting that didn’t check their review before order. Every time have any changes in your details they just send new contract with different prices without your agreement! Then your bills getting big and the contract length changing also, you will be stuck with them…

Worst customer service I have ever…

Worst customer service I have ever experienced. Following my broadband failing I contacted VM on the same day. It took 3 days for the first technician to turn up to look at my router which, was not the problem, it took another 2 days for the 2nd to turn up to look at the wire to the house which was not the problem either. After calling everyday and wasting hours on hold, the 3rd technician turned up on day 6 to look at my router again and stated he had no idea why he had been asked to come as it was not the problem. After repeated calls to VM and been cut off multiple times, I finally got through to someone helpful who stated that it would take anoth 12-14 days to fix. I stated that this was unacceptable and was told that I could exit my contract with VM without penalties. Within 30mins of this call, another manager rang me and stated that I would be charged over £400 if I changed service providers - I informed them of the earilier call and they stated that I was mis-imformed as this was not possible. This manger was rude and unhelpful. I called again and was put through to another manager who then told me that only one technician had attended and basically told me I was lying and told me that I could not be connected to the 4th august - over a month from been disconnected and again stated I would be charged if I changed suppliers. At this point I stated that I would seek legal advice as the contract is to provide internet connection which they have failed to do. I called agin and with a different manager agreed that I would change service providers without charge and got this in writting this time. Basically, this is not a company that I could ever recommend dealing with as the company culture is extreemly poor with customer service staff always very understanding but never follow up on their actions and the managers used threatening tactics to try and intimidate customers. I have nver experienced such poor service from a company and suggest that anyone using VM should look at the reviews before signing up.

Very surprised at service received

Very surprised at service received. Recently moved home to non virgin area and was part way through contract. Expecting problems and end of contract penalties. But, no, they said penalties would be waved on proof of new address. Sent proof and returned equipment. Penalty was removed and even had refund for part of the month from termination date.

Please be aware this company will engage in outright theft

Due to moving home I have had to leave Virgin Media who told me that in theory because they could install services to my new premises I would have to pay a disconnection fee. This fee would be £249.20 minus a £50 credit for a prior outstanding complaint thus leaving a total balance of £199.20 to be paid.

On the 3rd of July I then received an email from Virgin stating that my bill was ready and £199.20 was due as agreed.

3 days later on the 6th of July I then used the link they specifically provided for me to pay the sum in full via a debit on their online portal. Thinking our business was now concluded I thought nothing more of it and carried on with life.

The following day on the 7th of July Virgin Media then took the sum of £249.20 from my account despite the fact that they were not entitled to this money, the sum taken was wrong and the bill had in fact already been paid.

I then telephoned them to ask why this money had been taken and to give me a refund. The 'customer service representative' who was wildly unhelpful and in fact hung up on me and then phoned me back 15 minutes later said they could see this payment had been taken in error and would refund me and asked me to quote the details of the card the money had been taken from.

When I then provided these details I was then told they didn't match the card details they had and a cheque would need to be sent and this would take 1 month! This argument then quickly fell apart when I confirmed the details were correct and I had the time stamp and the transaction ID for the payment in question and threatened to take this matter to Ofcom.

Shockingly, after a brief hold I was passed through to a manager who told me that a refund was in fact possible to this card and a refund was processed which I then received 24 hours later.

Having once again assumed all business was concluded and having carried on with life as normal I see Virgin Media have once again tried to charge me the sum of £199.20 this morning. Suspecting they might do this I made the decision to move all money out of the account the night before so it could not be taken although they did send me a lovely threatening email telling me this sum needed to be paid or my services would be restricted.

For reference my services were disconnected on the 30th of June and once again the bill has been paid almost 3 weeks ago!

In short please avoid using this company at all costs, particularly if you have any characteristics of vulnerability as they will deliberately attempt to take money to which they are no entitled, customer service will offer nothing in the way of support unless you back them into a corner because you've caught them out lying and they are generally just what I think can fairly be described as scam artists. However, that would explain why they have just been fined £28m for in fact trying to scam people.

Hi Sebastian,

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

We understand how frustrating and concerning it must have been to receive a bill for £199.20, pay it in full using the payment link provided, and then have a further payment of £249.20 taken from your account days later. We also appreciate how disappointing it would be to spend additional time trying to resolve the issue, particularly when you believed all outstanding balances had already been settled.

We're sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced when contacting us regarding the duplicate payment, as well as the confusion surrounding the refund process. We understand why receiving further payment requests and collection attempts after the matter had supposedly been resolved would leave you feeling frustrated and concerned.

We'd like the opportunity to review the concerns you've raised regarding your final bill, payments, refund and account closure. Please get in touch with us using one of the contact methods below:

So difficult to deal with

First of all can I say that I’m happy with the product but find the company so difficult to deal with. They constantly offer better deals to new customers and will not let existing customers take advantage of these. Trying to talk to someone is so time consuming. If you complain they simply open up a complaint and immediately close it. The point of this I struggle to understand.
Following the reply from Virgin Media I tried the WhatsApp option and, like the phone, a total waste of my time as I couldn’t get past the chatbot. I did eventually get to chat with someone but 1.5 hrs later nothing achieved other than trying to upsell me all the time. Really serving to validate my criticism

Genuinely the worst customer service…

Genuinely the worst customer service ever. THEY told me that they couldn’t provide internet at my new address so I started a contract with sky. Virgin then tried to charge me £400 for leaving and wouldn’t let me dispute this even though it was because they told me they couldn’t provide for me. They then said my only option was to switch back to them so I did. My WiFi was supposed to be working 4 days ago. I now have no working WiFi, a bill for £400, had to pay £5 moving house fee AND they’re trying to charge me over £40 for my ‘first bill’ when it’s supposed to be £23.99 a month. Can not stress more to never start a contract with them. Horrendous customer service.

Think Virgin think crap

Think Virgin think crap. Outages for the last 3 days. Booked an engineer as not website saying no problems in area. Cancelled appointments to be in but (no surprise) engineer didn’t turn up nor any notification from them. Spoke to (offshore and difficult to understand) customer services who told me a string of lies from UK wide outage to local outage to engineer phoned (2 names given neither of which live here!!) to engineer visited property (unlucky Virgin as my CCTV cameras can prove the lie). I HATE VIRGIN!!! THE WORST CS IN THE WORLD….

The absolute worst customer service

The absolute worst customer service. Been trying for 6 weeks to get the broadband wire that comes from the street reallocated. Told us it would be done upon installation. Installer arrived said it wasn’t his department, then sneakily connected and signed the job of as completed. Spent 8.5 hours over 5 weeks on the phone being passed from business customer care to faults team. Nobody seems to be able to arrange a wire reallocation. The worst customer service I have experienced. Mr Branson would be ashamed.

Disgusting customer service

Disgraceful company. Charging me a small fortune for broadband for the month. Have now sorted to move to a better and cheaper supplier. I have been a loyal customer to Virgin Media for years now and there's always an issue somewhere down the line. I have spoke to an agent on their website and they made little attempt to keep me as a customer despite me paying my bills on time for years. Anyway, time to try another company. Goodbye

Virgin Media should not even be given one star. This is the one of the worst companies you can ever be a customer of. The best message I can send to everyone out there is do not become a customer of Virgin Media.

Quick and easy changeover

Changed from another provider providing skow speed with increased cost, so took the plunge and changed to VM, who offered a higher speed, included Netflix, all for a lower cost. Setup easy and enjoying the experience so far.

ISP Throttling - Tor Browser

I believe my ISP - Virgin Media are throttling my connection to Tor Browser's onionized feature.

How does Callum know this...? because Callum isn't a stupid person and turned on his Norton Security VPN to bypass this, and then attempted to use the Tor Browser onionized feature with no throttling issues and then turned Norton VPN off again to which the throttling occurs again...why are Virgin Media doing this?

Thank You Martin and Virgin Media

A big thank you to Martin at Virgin Media who has given me an outstanding deal when renewing my contract. Martin was amazing he is a credit to Virgin Media. Martin has saved me money on my new contract and I will be paying less than before. This is a great help and so much appreciated during this cost of living crisis. I did not have a good experience recently when trying to negotiate with the Indian call centre. I just wanted to leave Virgin Media at that point. Now Martin and Virgin Media have restored my faith in them. I can continue to enjoy my Virgin 360 box which I love and enjoy the same services I had previously had but with increased broadband speed. Thank you Martin and Virgin Media today I’m truly delighted in how you handled my experience. You have restored my faith :)

Hi Matthew,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review.

We're delighted to hear about your recent experience and that Martin was able to help you find a package that works for your needs and budget. It's fantastic to know that he was able to secure a great renewal deal, increase your broadband speed, and reduce your monthly costs at a time when every saving counts.

We're especially pleased to hear that Martin's service restored your faith in Virgin Media after a previous experience had left you considering leaving. Taking the time to listen, understand a customer's needs and find the right solution is exactly the kind of service we strive to provide.

It's also great to hear that you're continuing to enjoy your Virgin TV 360 service while benefiting from your new package.

We'll be sure to pass your kind comments on to Martin and his management team, as recognition like this means a great deal to our colleagues.

Thank you again for your feedback and for choosing to stay with Virgin Media.

Worst company ever to deal with

Worst company ever to deal with. Ring three times cut off. Asked to upgrade boxes, on screen, due to service ending. Upgrade requested, engineer came out, no equipment. No equipment arrived asked to wait 2 weeks. No equipment arrived. Further 3 hours trying to get this resolved and be told I should be paying more but he will try and get it for me at no cost. This is supposed to be an upgrade at your request. If it wasnt for the fact everyone of your customers was tied to a contract I imagine everyone would leave. - You will no doubt reach out to me and ask me to contact you to discuss, which as we all know will be something that means you will lose the will to live on this earth and you will make it really hard to navigate the WA experience which should be quick, you will guide me through a range of options, none of which relate to a complaint and / or resolving my issue, pigeon holing me into anything but resolving this and yet by replying with a message stating you wish me to contact and resolve, you know damn well that no one will, because we are totally wasting our time.

Hi Pete,

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 advised that your equipment needs upgrading, only for an engineer to arrive without the required equipment and then for the replacement equipment not to arrive as expected. We also appreciate how disappointing it is to spend several hours trying to get the issue resolved, particularly when you're left with uncertainty about costs for what you believed was a requested service upgrade.

We'd like the opportunity to review the concerns you've raised regarding your upgrade and the support you've received. Please get in touch with us using one of the contact methods below:
