  • stuartbquick Stuart Bolton (@stuartbquick) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I’m not impressed. Switched for phone and broadband on 31st Aug. Telephone switch got rescheduled on the day of installation! Had to get existing provider to extend contract for 2wks. Broadband is constantly buffering and now gone down. @NOWTV @VodafoneUK better.

  • mechasquid Andy Welland (@mechasquid) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi there! Do you have a customer support email address at all? Broadband customer here. I can’t get through on phone or live chat and need to discuss service issues and wish to downgrade service. Hope you can help!

  • nicohobson nicohobson (@nicohobson) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia hi , your text service is awful and your agent went missing for 20 mins after I passed security and then said they were going to be an hour? It took 2 days for you to get back in the first place

  • dale_beverley84 dale beverley (@dale_beverley84) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia why did you promise us broadband by today yet still an engineer has not been out to do the work then to install. This is shocking service.

  • dawnproc 👻🤩DP 🤩👻 (@dawnproc) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why have you just contacted me to tell me my internet service will be disconnected in four hours as we need a new router?? We had one last week and you’ve been out to it twice since 😳

  • paul_phillips83 Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia how come all walking dead have now moved to virgin store when they were all on demand I’m a customer and my sister in law just joined was told it’s all on demand when they installed it yesterday now you have to buy them

  • blade4life17 Andrew Challenger (@blade4life17) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia how do I cancel my service with you as I no longer need it as I've moved address and it's not round the address I'm currently at

  • lisasevern Lisa Severn (@lisasevern) reported from Sheffield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam wow, it's hard to buy a new service from you guys. You're in danger of making Virgin Media look good here

  • slivaugh51 Sylvia (@slivaugh51) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Had problems with our WiFi, engineer turned up at the door we asked shouldn’t he be wearing a mask 😷 he answered “nah we’ve run out” seriously Virgin you’re sending out engineers to peoples homes without masks!!!!

  • andrewsberry68 Andrew Berry (@andrewsberry68) reported

    @virginmedia Why? They know there is an issue, just tell me when it will be resolved. I don’t want to wait on the phone to tell them something they say they already know.

  • Sean899 SHON (@Sean899) reported

    @btsportufc I have virgin media in Ireland. How do I watch the PPV on Saturday. Please help

  • alexislignereux Alexis Lignereux (@alexislignereux) reported

    @virginmedia Now the status page says 23:45 today? That is so ridiculous. Please compensate me for loss of service without me having to have to do anything. Please also fix ASAP

  • JadeGuest3 Jade Guest (@JadeGuest3) reported

    @virginmedia I have called over and over again today and cannot get through to anyone - they keep putting the phone down. Obviously don’t like dealing with issues or maybe my number is recognised from the constant problems I am having!! ALL I WANT IS WIFI - is this something you provide???

  • Dan94205414 Hmm (@Dan94205414) reported

    @virginmedia any chance of a response to messages? Or maybe speaking to somebody on the phone rather than just having a signal sent to my router to make it even worse?

  • FidelUK FIDΞL (@FidelUK) reported

    @virginmedia This is simply unacceptable! Does anyone at your end have any idea of what the issue is and WHEN it is going to be resolved? The estimate for resolving the issue was 15 minutes ago! An earlier txt said it was done. NOT TRUE! How can we trust #VirginMedia?

  • Udayan_Banger udayan (@Udayan_Banger) reported

    @virginmedia Impossibly slow speeds when trying to load up a few basic internet tabs. Please don’t say you’re doing repairs :(( (in Fallowfield, Manchester, M14)

  • leziadavies Lezia (@leziadavies) reported

    @virginmedia Cancel the subscription. I have it with another service provider, Amazon dont seem to have the same issues. Thank you.

  • kaziamelx 𝐊𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐀 𝐌𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐀 🎠 (@kaziamelx) reported

    @virginmedia hi our WiFi has been really terrible for the last two weeks it’s dropping on all our devices around 4/5 times a day each. I’ve tested our WiFi connection and it says there’s nothing wrong with it but it’s getting ridiculous now as we wfh and can’t work

  • p403n1x87 Gabriele Tornetta 🇪🇺 🇮🇹 🇬🇧 (@p403n1x87) reported

    Hey @virginmedia I tried phoning customer service to give notice that your services are no longer required but the operators keep hanging up on me. Is it just not possible to get rid of you at all?
