    @virginmedia Rung 151 before. Just done again. Same recorded message. No help whatsoever. How about suspending my monthly charge until you sort out the problem?

  • JordRd Jordan Reid (@JordRd) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia broadband been down for over 2 weeks. Working intermittently. Phoned on numerous occasions, on hold for over an hour each time. Tried the messaging service. Respond only when I’m at work. Abysmal service/provider. My wife works from home and is having to us hotspot

  • 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!

  • SammyJT77 Samantha Harrison (@SammyJT77) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia how do you not have an email address for customer service? You are asking that we don’t call unless it’s urgent but then all other options (text bot in particular) are not fit for purpose.

  • jojo_oh_jojo Jo of JAM Artworks (@jojo_oh_jojo) reported from Sheffield, England

    @KatePinkSmith @virginmedia I finally made the break from Virgin last week, moved to BT. Shocking service all round xx

  • 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 😐

  • 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

  • Yorkie_Jock Derek Libberton 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Yorkie_Jock) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hello, we had a letter saying work would be carried out on broadband 23rd Oct, my partner is at home today booked into an NHS online training course and has no service. Called cust svcs, msg says work being carried out today. Why no notification?

  • 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.

  • RebeccaRose_B Rebecca Hardy (@RebeccaRose_B) reported from Doncaster, England

    @GoldenSilverGun @virginmedia We’ve had the same problem here. Been hung up on three times all after 40 minutes both yesterday and today. Now 30 minutes into holding again 😩

  • 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 😳

  • StevenDixon25 Steven Dixon (@StevenDixon25) reported from Barnsley, England

    @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

  • 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.

  • 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 😳

  • 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.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TCMuffin Jayne Samuel-Walker💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈#FBIW (@TCMuffin) reported

    @RichardJMurphy @virginmedia letter yesterday. Price rise will be RPI + 3.9%, i.e. the higher of the 2 common inflation measures 🤬 Jan 2023 RPI = 19.2% Jan 2023 CPI = 10.1% Even if RPI <= 0%, £ rise will be 3.9%. Why? From April 2024 you cannot cancel contract within 30 days of £ rise 🤬

  • Thatsprettycoo7 Bryan Kavanagh (insert $8) (@Thatsprettycoo7) reported

    @virginmedia I've just checked and it is a fault your end. I've signed up to the text alerts. I wouldn't want to post messages with my postcode on via social media either. How do I claim compensation for this outage?

  • andrewmac_09 andrew mckinna (@andrewmac_09) reported

    @virginmedia To discuss my complaint. It was & I was promised a call back in 72 hours on Friday afternoon. You’ve broken your complaint’s procedure-why are you reluctant to actually talk to your customers via the phone, when things go wrong?

  • WilloTheWisp99 Willow the Wisp (@WilloTheWisp99) reported

    @virginmedia @BlokeWorking Listen, Virgin. Your customer service is rubbish. To raise prices by this much on top of the twaddle you pump out with no uplift in efficiency is an insult. You’re profiteering, pure and simple.

  • walderston ¶ Adam J Wall 🇬🇧 (@walderston) reported

    Never mind @virginmedia push their crappy firmware again :( lost all speed. What is this crap

  • aminamangera1 amina mangera (@aminamangera1) reported

    @virginmedia there has been intermittent breakdown of Internet in my area since February 7th and now no broadband! You say it won't be fixed until tomorrow! Appaling service.

  • ___GJS___ G R A H A M (@___GJS___) reported

    The last sentence on @virginmedia’s phone message says they “want to provide good customer service”, clearly they do not practice what they preach!

  • lukestratton Luke Stratton (@lukestratton) reported

    @virginmedia You didn’t answer my question.. why did I not receive any advance communication regarding this issue?

  • janefedupwitho2 jane (@janefedupwitho2) reported

    @virginmedia No sorry, my problems are with @o2 not u

  • luvcatrin Catrin (@luvcatrin) reported

    @virginmedia Yes this is an issue we have had since we switched to virgin. We never have WiFi. But can’t seem to get virgin to get someone out to fix it. Can’t switch to sky as I’m locked in. So I’m paying all this money for something that has never worked
