  • glynfletcher Glyn Fletcher ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (@glynfletcher) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia are just great, takes 25 mins to speak to someone who cant help or understand the problem so they put me though to the "concern team" but I'm cut off whilst on hold !

  • MarkHughes_ MH (@MarkHughes_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @jamiec1995 @virginmedia Won’t show the 5G network on the wireless at all, reboots back the the 2G one its saving the settings then when you click WiFi it’s not there and reverts back to only showing the previous WiFi’s

  • Hortini Rick Houghton (@Hortini) reported from Liverpool, England

    I see @virginmedia have it sorted. You can only cancel or suspend your sports subscription if you call them. Reduced call centres meaning massive waits on the phone. But if you don’t pay they cut your internet and tv off at the time of most need. Let us do it online!!!!

    @PeterBayliss @Ofcom Must be a local issue for you - I’ve been relying on @ThreeUK for broadband as my @virginmedia 100mbps fibre line has been epically slow even phone calls made on Wifi calling are bad, switch to mobile and it’s perfect 👌

  • timerpool Tim Underhill (@timerpool) reported

    @virginmedia I was on watsapp with them and they told me there was a rise in my bill but the reason my bill went down in the 1st place was because I was going to leave Virgin because of the rise so really I shouldnt have had the rise.

  • satyen_gotecha Satyen Gotecha (@satyen_gotecha) reported

    @virginmedia I find your responses most unhelpful just like all your colleagues at customer service. If you are unable to help, then I am just going to complain to your regulators. This is beyond ridiculous that no one at VM is willing to take ownership and help a loyal customer out.

  • averagejo10 C.R (@averagejo10) reported

    @virginmedia hi got upgraded to your Hub 4 when are you going to update the app so it can be linked? I can scan for black spots and the WiFi keeps dropping off my laptop constantly since your HUB upgrade. Help. Thanks

  • skybluechick72 Sam D (@skybluechick72) reported from Rugby, England

    Any one else having @virginmedia broadband issues?

  • timerpool Tim Underhill (@timerpool) reported

    @virginmedia There was an advisor on here a few weeks ago called Steven that was able to see my account and helped me so I dont see why it cant be done again. When I talk to customer services they never help me and give me the run around.

  • ChadPFC CHAD (@ChadPFC) reported

    @virginmedia I have, it was on the forum that I heard about the Hub 5. My issue is I’m going to buy my own router, and set up a mesh system. This is to fix the poor coverage I’m getting from your hub. It would be good if I could get the Hub5, as I know other customers have got them now…

  • craig_webster Craig Webster (@craig_webster) reported

    @virginmedia Looking at sky I can get same tv package and faster broadband for same price. I’ve been a customer for 4 or 5 years and my loyalty discounts are due to expire

  • earlofmarl Nick P (@earlofmarl) reported

    @virginmedia down again. Two times in three days. Sort it out #virginmedia #noservice

  • 714lemmons bavitaz (@714lemmons) reported

    @londongirluk @SkyUK @virginmedia I will be too. Sky Q is awful. Terrible interface and the box is constantly disconnecting from the WiFi and it’s not the WIFI as no other device in the house does it. It’s the crappy Sky Q box. The old HD box was a million times better. More cheap crap labelled as “new”

  • saulpavage4 paul savage (@saulpavage4) reported

    @virginmedia hi got a volt package and 02 sim but sim not working how do I get a new one
