    Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  • ArmitageJohn
    John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  • maddyarden
    Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  • Jackielindak
    Jackie 🤍 (@Jackielindak) reported from Doncaster, England

    @virginmedia how long does someone need to be on hold for, all I want to do if cancel my contract, WhatsApp is just as bad! Also want to complain about my bill going up for no reason 4th month in a row!!!!

  • TWO_Librans
    Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

  • victimsvoice73
    Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

    @calvg @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 Stop blaming us and be responsible for your crap connections

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

  • summitsleap
    Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

  • statto95
    David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I pay £50 a month for my WiFi and Internet, any particular reason it keeps going down.....??

  • Helen_Claire71
    Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

  • BMiller36990477
    -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

    @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

  • tevowl9
    Adam (@tevowl9) reported from Brinsworth, England

    @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

    Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Useless you haven't addressed my points. I will go directly to the managing director Lutz Schueler. Really disappointed and I woukd have expected better considering I have been a loyal customer.

  • csijo
    jo bell (@csijo) reported from Doncaster, England

    @virginmedia - we (YOU) have a PROBLEM!!! Why have I been charged £147 for a contract of £64 even after speaking to someone on 25/09 (when bill was received) who assured me they would escalate the issue and get it resolved?? #unhappycustomer #overcharged #problem

    @virginmedia are your online chats for "upgrades" AI powered? The responses are terrible. So adios after 20+ years of good and bad service but mainly good. Your renewal prices are shocking though. #noexistingcustomerloyalty
