  • cranworth791
    Sam Millington (@cranworth791) reported from Rawmarsh, England

    @virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.

    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

  • 67BLADE
    Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband

  • lettielou05

  • 67BLADE
    Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back

  • 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

  • GAMINGDRAGONUK
    GAMING DRAGON (@GAMINGDRAGONUK) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for absolutely no help what so ever. Please fix your issues

  • 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?!

  • John_murphy1
    John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

  • rwgladwin

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia I can’t help with that. Good luck.

    So been without WiFi and tv because of @virginmedia outage in barnsley since early morning supposed to be fixed by 5pm tonight and 4g is useless

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia That's awful. Whenever you leave they always try and squeeze a bit more cash out. Disgraceful

  • StevenByro
    Steven Byron (@StevenByro) reported

    @virginmedia what is the update on the broadband please. Ours has been intermittent for the last two weeks I’m unable to work and my partner is also unable to work. We have called multiple times and get told there’s been a fire causing the problem and told to wait 48 hours?

  • skihippy
    Skihippy loves flops (@skihippy) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia When my grandfather died and my dad tried to cancel his phone contract, the company said they needed the written approval of the contract owner. My dad said that this will be difficult because he’s already buried and the grave has a pretty heavy stone cover…

  • w47carr

    When you have to use 4g because @virginmedia is down due to storm 😡😡

    @andyvanstan @virginmedia It’s been down since 10am Tuesday, no TV or broadband in the CF63 and CF62 area, Barry, Wales

  • neilheppen
    Heppo (@neilheppen) reported

    @virginmedia @GeoffJonners Why should that matter. An existing customers should be offered the same renewal deal whether online or by speaking to an agent. But of course that's not the case - and even the online renewal offer goes up or down every couple of days. Time the regulators got to grips with it.

    Bill Y (@BillY18201250) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia #Vodafone did this to me with my dad's estate. 2months left on a 24month. Gimme the money and kit back. Then had the cheek to try and upsell the package during the call. I lost it on that one. Think its time #ofcom cracked down on bereavement account closure tactics.

  • GMCC_Diane
    Diane Elebert-Morgan (@GMCC_Diane) reported

    @virginmedia loving the even further dial down of our broadband as we enter InTo the last few days of contract with you! You already turned it down after the first 8 weeks so we had to upgrade! We have never used you before and we will never use you again! Good riddance!

    @BrianNicholso16 @virginmedia Their customer service is appalling, I've told them i am leaving and the date, which is my contract end date so they have sent me a bill for beyond that on out of contract fees
