About

The company was formed in 2006 by the merger of NTL and Telewest and the further merger with Virgin Mobile UK. As of the end of 2012, they had around 4.8 million cable customers with nearly 3.8 million of them supplied with its television service, Virgin TV. Approximately 4.2 million of the customers took Virgin’s broadband services and 4.1 million have fixed-line telephone services. As of the same time, there were around 3 million mobile phone customers.

Complaints information

Virgin Media’s complaints record is generally good according to Ofcom statistics relating to the period from the last quarter of 2016 to the third quarter of 2017. For telephone and broadband, the level of complaints is lower than the industry average —and amongst the lowest of all its main competitors.

The same applies mostly in the case of its mobile phone network. Apart from the final quarter of 2016 and the third quarter of 2017, levels of complaints were below the industry average.

Complaint levels for pay TV were higher than the industry average, although improvements were noticeable up to the final quarter of 2016 when they dropped below industry averages for the first time in the Ofcom period analysed.

Making a complaint

The website contains a full range of help and support services including fault-finding, reporting and diagnostics via a straightforward and easy to navigate menu system. If website-based trouble shooting is not successful, complaints can be made by telephone on 0844 409 8730.

When trouble shooting and/or making complaints, first establish if you are a national or cable customer. If you take your service through a fixed phone line you are a national customer, if through the fibre optic cable network, then you are a cable customer. This is important as you will be routed through the help menus according to the service you take.
