    @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

  • CEjottings Norman Perrin (@CEjottings) reported from Sheffield, England

    @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?

    @virginmedia Yes. I just want to speak to someone and get this resolved otherwise I want to cancel altogether

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

    @virginmedia this service is abysmal.. no one answering calls again, no live chat, how can I fix my problem if no one is available to talk to. We’ve been having issues since 26/10/20.. absolutely crap. @SkyUK we’re on our way

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @virginmedia Well one of my network ports still isn't working. Had the router for years. Anyway I can get a replacement?

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

    @virginmedia my 80yo Grandma has been without use of her phone for almost 24 hours. This has been reported and the automated message keeps saying will be resolved by a certain time, but that time keeps getting put back. Unable to speak to an actual person. Can you help?

  • 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 😳

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @virginmedia hey guys! One of my network ports on my router has stopped working. Any ideas if I can get a new router? I can DM you my details?

    @virginmedia can't connect to any WiFi device from my modem but its working with an Ethernet cable, tried rebooting multiple times but no joy, could you advise what is required to fix the fault please #virginmedia #WiFi

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @richardbranson yo! Can you fix my internet? @virginmedia

  • 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.

  • 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 😳

  • 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?

  • CEjottings Norman Perrin (@CEjottings) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Done that. Looks like the TiVo box the likely problem. Needs replacing. So how do i do that? Phone leads to online help: online leads nowhere helpful, for just replacing a TiVo box. Ideas?

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @virginmedia what's the number I need to cancel the service? I'm so fed up at the moment

  • TimBray07366626 Tim Bray (@TimBray07366626) reported

    @virginmedia It seems somewhat ironic to be repeatedly told the service is 'Good' when forced to contact you through 4G due to the lack of an internet connection.

  • KevinRye (((Kevin Rye))) (@KevinRye) reported

    I know it's hardly new to say it, but you really do provide some of the worst customer service of any provider of any service I use @virginmedia And I don't say that lightly.

  • pjay54 pjay (@pjay54) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, all sorted. The engineer came back and fixed whatever the problem was.

  • EmilyExplores1 Emily Simpkins (@EmilyExplores1) reported

    @virginmedia our WiFi speed hasn't exceeded 5mpbs (for months) and the lowest upload speed has been is 0.43mpbs, both myself and my letting agency have contacted you about this and neither of us were successful with your team. How do we go about finding some help for this please?

  • d_pedrini Daniel Pedrini (@d_pedrini) reported

    @alexdeutsch @virginmedia Sounds to me like a problem with your installation. Something may not be quite right and worth asking an engineer to have look. This is where the customer service falls down unfortunately

  • izword mark webster (@izword) reported

    @virginmedia I am having a really hard time trying to resolve my WiFi issue. Multiple calls, broken promises, lack of support. Been going for 2 weeks, zero resolution,

  • jimbo2707 James Butterworth (@jimbo2707) reported

    @virginmedia possible the worse customer service I have ever experienced. I would definitely not recommend any of your services to anyone ever. #CustomerService #rubbish #stayclear
