  • andyksheffield
    Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

    @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

    Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  • 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.

    @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

    @virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service

  • 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.

  • lettielou05
    lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

    GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

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

  • alexwhit3head_
    Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported from Sheffield, England

    Coincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.

  • goonie2008
    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.

    @virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

    @virginmedia Just turned our tv on and still channels missing phoning you is a waste of time. I sincerely hope that you are going to compensate us for the loss of service

  • heyheyhandsome
    Daryl Antony Horn (@heyheyhandsome) reported

    @virginmedia guys, we’ve had a complete broadband outage now for some hours in BH14. We need this to be able to do our jobs over the weekend. Service update estimates fix by 20th May which is frankly unacceptable. Can you give me a real time update of when to expect service?

  • cuddy271
    Michael Cuddington (@cuddy271) reported

    All we are getting on our tv is a scrambled picture @virginmedia are no longer the people you can rely on, they have become far too expensive , their customer service is non exsistent and people are going elsewhere.

  • cyberbob1uk
    Cyberbob1uk (@cyberbob1uk) reported

    @virginmedia are you taking the proverbial? The broadband has been out more often than I have in the short time I've been with you. And now you aim to rectify the problem in 4 days time?

  • dollynoocat
    Dollynoocat (@dollynoocat) reported

    @virginmedia eh obviously I did that and went through the torment of trying to reconnect. Still not working. Then the internet went down for a number of hours. Contract up for renewal shortly. 🤔

  • standfreered1
    standfreered (@standfreered1) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely shameful treatment of my elderly mother in law on your chat service this afternoon. First of all the bill increase to over £100 for a pensioner on her own, she understandably struggles with technology and has gone on the chat to try to reduce her bill or

  • AndrewW12290183
    Andy W (@AndrewW12290183) reported

    @virginmedia 9 online applications 2 customer services call. I was assured an engineer would collect my Virgin equipment yesterday. Yep no call and they never turned up. I am beginning to think this is a scam from Virgin to charge me £90. I need to contact Trading Standards

  • TheDude_____
    Lebowski (@TheDude_____) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, we haven’t had broadband now since 2pm in the EN6 area. You sent a message saying it’s back on hours ago, but it’s not. I called customer services and was on hold for an almost an hour. Please can you update?

  • MaddogTurney

    @virginmedia service is down again. There have been 4 service interruptions within a 1 month period. 3 times this week and twice today. What is going on? EX4 postcode
