    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

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

    @virginmedia so. I left virgin media in October after 19 years, not that I wanted to. I just was fed up of new customers getting a better deal. Now I keep getting billed and its up to £150. How can I stop this. Been on the phone 20mins but had to put it down 😤😤😤

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

    Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to start issuing people the Hub 4 as the SH3 is useless for delivering wifi. Doesn’t help that you seem to be constantly having issues and massive speed problems over the last month. Any chance of us actually getting a service that we pay for?!

  • JohnLeesley john leesley (@JohnLeesley) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia appalling service virgin media! On 24/12 v6 box broke. So far, 4 telephone calls, 3 promises of calls back (not received), told new box posted to us but it wasn’t, engineer appointment cancelled by virgin with no explanation. Week later & still cant watch tv

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are we going to finally have some functional WiFi service from yourself? 3/4 days constant issues... pathetic

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

  • liaryredhead Angelina Perrett (@liaryredhead) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia No it's always slow lately

  • 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.😔

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

    @virginmedia please please can someone help me. I left virgin in October and have had several calls to say I didn't ask to. Now they are threatening me with debt recovery. Is this correct

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia It admits it’s not working .. says my coverage of a **** .. then offers to fix it for another £60/year .. same week they send me a letter to say my bill is increasing anyway .. clearly forgotten we’re in a pandemic!!!

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈

  • mrriddlesworth Mr Riddlesworth (@mrriddlesworth) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I test through a wired connection, i have already sent a complaint form with all the details on the online portal.

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Hi no - the link is broken and chat says up to 4 hour wait 🙈 .. please just want to order the booster please

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Only have broadband but it causes streaming issues. Service been terribly disrupted now for a couple of months.

  • AbigailBriggs_ Abigail Briggs (@AbigailBriggs_) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia The estimated fix time was 8pm last night, then 10pm, then 12am and now it is 4pm. Will it be fixed by this time, or will it just be put back again?

    @virginmedia She said it was your problem and would probably be fixed (remotely) in next 24 hours. I requested a call when it was fixed and she agreed. No mention of steps if it is not fixed. It’s still broken.

  • yasminecamilla Yasmine Camilla (@yasminecamilla) reported

    @AbiAgyeman @virginmedia Wow! Tbh, I think my complaint was given lip service and not written, until I insisted on a ref, and made her read it back to me. Needless to say she couldn’t….
