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

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

  • maddyarden
    Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  • 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.

  • Sedontane
    Thomas Foster (@Sedontane) reported from Newbold, England

    @nickkzie @scazz786 @virginmedia I have their business broadband, it's been awful. I then pulled the Internet cable out of the modem and fell back on the 4G backup on my plan. Fixed. I'll plug the cable back in tomorrow and get my speed back.

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting

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

    @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

  • 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

  • SBOmad
    Adam Hutt 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@SBOmad) reported from Swinton, England

    @virginmedia Broadband went back down for me around 16:30 and no internet etc and like others your website is still failing

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

    @virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.

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

    @virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

  • AndrewKerrison6
    Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported from Rotherham, England

    @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

  • 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

    @kingoftheshed @virginmedia Fault on mine from 6 July and to be sorted on 22 July shocking service

  • Si_67
    Si (@Si_67) reported

    @virginmedia Whenever I use your service checker, I get the message: "Intermittent signal in your area..." etc I go through the charade of checking the equipment (knowing it's not that) to get the stock message: "Don’t worry, we’re looking into this issue..."etc. This is all the time now.

  • MSBurkey
    Mark Burke (@MSBurkey) reported

    @virginmedia do you offer refunds or compensation for drop outs in service? No internet again in Leyland. WFH plans out the window today!

  • BillKilvington
    Bill Kilvington 💙 FCODP, FRCA (@BillKilvington) reported

    @virginmedia This isn't working is it. Asking if I'm available 'now' to answer security questions, when I respond yes you didn't get back to me for 3 hours. When, oddly I was no longer available. Very poor.

    @virginmedia Where did you read that I had an issue?

  • GeekyHairy
    GeekyHairyBestia (@GeekyHairy) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Your lucky you got dial up speeds bro. I’m lucky if I get 3-6mb on the GB package and that’s when I have a connection. But yeah customer service has got worse and worse. To point you can not contract or make a claim. Good luck dealing with them,m. Lost my job because of them 🤬
