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

    @virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.

  • whittickdiver paul whittick (@whittickdiver) reported from Sprotbrough, England

    @virginmedia after five years of custom you would rather me terminate my contract that provide me with the new router that you promised me as part of my new deal! Diabolical service!

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

    @virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

  • 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.

  • peterboardman64 Peter Boardman (@peterboardman64) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia no internet service in Chesterfield S40? What’s the problem?

  • chococlaire77 Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, England

    Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

  • 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

  • leannerains Leanne Rebecca (@leannerains) reported from Sheffield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam went to renew our sky package and they quote us £99 for new package deal bye bye sky il cancel our sky package and go somewhere else and maybe try @virginmedia #ripoff

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

    @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  • 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

  • pearson_alison Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported from Sheffield, England

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

  • Sheffield_Boy Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

  • TheG0000ner Gooner (@TheG0000ner) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Is there something wrong with @virginmedia at the moment. Got a very very crap speed of less than 1mbs #virginmedia #virginmobile in the S40 area. Can't log into my account either? 🤬 This is happening far too often for £69 a month!!!

  • steeleygash Gary Steele (@steeleygash) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia why is the red button on sky sports football not working no option to watch the live games ?? Poor service

  • AndyLGAtkins Andy Atkins (@AndyLGAtkins) reported

    Hi @virginmedia my service has become so unreliable, I can no longer work from home. It's no longer stable enough for VOIP calls. There does not seem to be a way to talk to a person about this. I am constantly routed to your automatic diagnostic checks. Can someone please help?

  • pugw5sh DirtyAirKills (@pugw5sh) reported

    @virginmedia No problems with service status according to your webpage, but my signal continues to intermittently drop out which is very annoying. A new hub is on its way to me so maybe that will help. Coverage in my house is poor as you only allow 2 Powerline boosters on each account 🤨

  • theYugster Guy Hartley (@theYugster) reported

    @virginmedia HELP I need someone from Customer Service to 'own' my complaint and sort it out, not to be passed from department and department and then cut off (several times) You are supposed to be telecommunications company!!! I spent 6 1/2 hours trying to get help yesterday!

  • Mike_Sammons Mike Sammons (@Mike_Sammons) reported

    @virginmedia No known issues, ran a broadband test and it reports back as ok. It seems the router drops all devices, both wired and wireless and the box hangs for 5 minutes and then judging by the lights on the box it reboots. I have been rebooting the box previously when this happens

  • iain_c_hill Iain Hill (@iain_c_hill) reported

    @virginmedia Tried to activate on Sunday 7th. Hub not reachable by anyone at VM. MAC address not coming up on the systam/inventory. Hub seems to be able to communicate with the network but showing 'access denied'.

  • Tabbers1968 Stats T (@Tabbers1968) reported

    @virginmedia To reiterate, no third party permission is required. It is down to communication between your sales team and your contractor.

  • lukesmart89 Luke Smart (@lukesmart89) reported

    @virginmedia It was my final bill which you take and credit back. You haven’t credited me back. It’s bad enough that you do this to try and “encourage” people to stay. But then to subsequently miss the repayment is extra unethical

  • swrb1 Prof Richard Barker #WearAMask (@swrb1) reported

    @virginmedia Long story, latest issue - you sent us a new TiVo box, without remote control. Old remote doesn’t work on half functions eg, volume, mute etc.

  • diane_mas DMM T&D (@diane_mas) reported

    @virginmedia Ironic..my virgin super duper broadband this morning is slow....very slow. In fact on occasions stopped! 😫😫

  • Tabbers1968 Stats T (@Tabbers1968) reported

    @virginmedia And me, the customer. Someone should be responsible for managing this delivery and giving an ETD and updates.
