    @skytv and @virginmedia you are having a Reyt made tonight, ordered boxing and missed first half hour cause it wouldn’t come on, sound keeps going and now I’ve got some awful sounding crap crowd noises through. Sort it out ffs!!! #WhytePovetkin

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Horbury, England

    @Ofcom why are you still allowing virgin media to provide intermittent tv, broadband and phone packages without punishment. In our area over the last two year they have provided an awful service. Constantly going down or intermittent. Horrible customer service.

  • 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.

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Wakefield, England

    @philsid @virginmedia Me either mate. Was surprised actually. Only issue is the line speed was poor as they use the old bt phone lines so gaming ping could be a nightmare. I changed back soon as I could but thier name is mud up here mate

  • 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 😳

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia Customer service i can forgive in this climate with people working from home

  • LewisH90 Lewis H (@LewisH90) reported from Darton, England

    Stream down again because @virginmedia are incompetent! Catch you guys tomorrow if they can manage to sort it.

  • RonofReepham Ron Luton-Brown 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RonofReepham) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia I'm visiting family in Denaby Main And the internet is terrible for a cable service! It keeps dropping out and SLOW!

  • 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

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia I moved back to virgin in Feb as I had a house move and it wasn't on my new street.Soon as they put it in I switched back to you but it certainly isn't the "always on" service I remember. I've had a new tivo within 2 months. Line issue. And repeated loss of service.All in 6 month

  • 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!

  • Reverand_dave Rev dave walker (@Reverand_dave) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia Its off more times than its on of late. I'm still getting an intermittent line issue on my bb which ive had pretty much from day one and the whole service goes off in wakefield/ dewsbury area at least once a week. Its off now.

  • StuN_UK StuN UK (@StuN_UK) reported from Sheffield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam Losing patience waiting for you to contact me about changing my V1 Sky Q box for V2. Fed up with some UHD recordings having software errors. 6 months left on my contract but I’m considering taking a financial hit, terminating it & leaving for @Virginmedia

  • Nude_Jay Jay🧘🏻‍♂️🧔🏻 (@Nude_Jay) reported from Sheffield, England

    @openswimmer7 @virginmedia Really bad. In total yesterday spent 4.5 hours on the phone. Only wanted to renew, then everything else got broke on the way. Fingers crossed now sorted 😐

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

    @virginmedia Hi, no issues with Hub or my account so I’m guessing it was a scam call 😳

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia my internet is down, can’t actually speak to anyone to tell you about it. Absolute joke

  • uLtImAtE_hAzArD UH Modz 🇬🇧 #NoCrew 🇵🇱 (@uLtImAtE_hAzArD) reported from Wakefield, England

  • charlhowells Charl Howells (@charlhowells) reported

    @virginmedia why is it ever since I upgraded my phone from an iPhone 11 to an iPhone 13 I have no signal I barely ever have 4G when it does it doesn’t ******* work! I paid you £120 to upgrade to a new phone and the signal is absolutely shocking it

  • KristalKarma_ Jessica 🖤 (@KristalKarma_) reported

    @virginmedia Would be great if I could stream anything but my WiFi is so **** I can't. Got to love it

  • tianyigao1999 Tianyi Gao (@tianyigao1999) reported

    Once I thought the "router" functionality in a modem sucks is only a China problem. Unfortunately, Virgin Media hubs (cable modems) are also the same. After I switch the hub from router mode to modem mode and let my own Mikrotik router handle NAT, my life is bright again.

  • terrypaul1985 Terry Paul (@terrypaul1985) reported

    @virginmedia Always a let down. No service! I'm losing the will. All I get is a rubbish service and nothing but stupid advice. Most useless internet service provider.

  • zil75 Liz Cannings (@zil75) reported

    @virginmedia I've just purchased the new @ElvisPresley film to find put you don't support subtitles for the those who have #hardofhearing £20 down and I can't hear it

  • CZberowski Christian Zberowski (@CZberowski) reported

    @virginmedia Nothing has been advised at all... The problem is I haven't managed to speak to member of your team at all. I just want to speak to an actual human being. NOT an automated voice. This isn't helpful at all! It feels impossible to get any help from your customer service at all.

  • suntuenmun Bill (@suntuenmun) reported

    @virginmedia Just been able to speak to your colleagues on phone to cancel my engineer appointment tomorrow.

  • craftysarahp Sarah Pie 🌻🌻 (@craftysarahp) reported
