  • cathd100 Cat Wasnidge (@cathd100) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm the issues with wifi today in S62WG? Attemping to work from home is very difficult when the wifi keeps disconnecting. Virgin website says no issue!

  • jamesda31316845 james davis (@jamesda31316845) reported from Worksop, England

    @Epithemiou @virginmedia Looks like loss of signal, or interference from another device too near virgin box ?

  • 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!!!!

  • Tomasu87 Thomas Robinson (@Tomasu87) reported from Staveley, England

    @virginmedia I can’t login in to my email it’s says that part of the site is down do u knowwhen it mite working again

  • ccielucas CARLA LUCAS (@ccielucas) reported from Pleasley, England

    @BenJamesPhotos @virginmedia Was with Virgin & initially happy with the service. Their customer services were dreadful when I wanted to cancel to go to Sky who were alot cheaper. No loyalty was shown at all & that is the one thing Sky has proved they have an abudance off during a hugely difficult 18 months.

  • LindaParnham Linda Parnham (@LindaParnham) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia do you have broadband issues in Chesterfield? Been in queue on phone ages!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • AdieThompson Adrian Thompson (@AdieThompson) reported from Aston cum Aughton, England

    @virginmedia broadband & TV down in area 14 since 1pm today (26th). App says bband restored at 6pm but ours still out, no reply on chat support been waiting online trying to keep phones clear

  • 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

  • MikeHull2u Mike Hull (@MikeHull2u) reported from Holmesfield, England

    Really annoyed that @vmbusiness can’t resolve pathetically slow upload speed in central Sheffield for a week. It means colleagues requiring remote access to our server because they are working from home are wasting hours of their time due to crushingly slow speeds.

  • 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!

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

  • Tomasu87 Thomas Robinson (@Tomasu87) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Hi @virginmedia your email part of the web site has been down for about week now

  • HarlamTK Harlam (@HarlamTK) reported from Sheffield, England

    Low and behold... @vmbusiness is down again on the first work day of the week. Makes me wonder how often this happens and I’m normally in the office so don’t notice... I can’t wait to one day move to somewhere where another provider can connect me to fibre optic internet

  • TimFran41497014 Tim Franklin (@TimFran41497014) reported

    Mines working now, hope that's the case for everyone else. @virginmedia I'm assuming you will NOT be charging your customers full price as we've missed an hour and 15 minutes of the event due to your problems?!

  • tom2tuff Tom2tuff (@tom2tuff) reported
