  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia It admits it’s not working .. says my coverage of a **** .. then offers to fix it for another £60/year .. same week they send me a letter to say my bill is increasing anyway .. clearly forgotten we’re in a pandemic!!!

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia so. I left virgin media in October after 19 years, not that I wanted to. I just was fed up of new customers getting a better deal. Now I keep getting billed and its up to £150. How can I stop this. Been on the phone 20mins but had to put it down 😤😤😤

  • 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?!

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

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

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia appalling service virgin media! On 24/12 v6 box broke. So far, 4 telephone calls, 3 promises of calls back (not received), told new box posted to us but it wasn’t, engineer appointment cancelled by virgin with no explanation. Week later & still cant watch tv

  • liaryredhead Angelina Perrett (@liaryredhead) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond

  • mrriddlesworth Mr Riddlesworth (@mrriddlesworth) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I test through a wired connection, i have already sent a complaint form with all the details on the online portal.

  • curt_curtdavies Curt Davies (@curt_curtdavies) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @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

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

    @virginmedia broadband been down for over 2 weeks. Working intermittently. Phoned on numerous occasions, on hold for over an hour each time. Tried the messaging service. Respond only when I’m at work. Abysmal service/provider. My wife works from home and is having to us hotspot

  • 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

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia The estimated fix time was 8pm last night, then 10pm, then 12am and now it is 4pm. Will it be fixed by this time, or will it just be put back again?

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia please please can someone help me. I left virgin in October and have had several calls to say I didn't ask to. Now they are threatening me with debt recovery. Is this correct

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Hi no - the link is broken and chat says up to 4 hour wait 🙈 .. please just want to order the booster please

  • MrRabbitGB MrRabbitGB (@MrRabbitGB) reported

    Sooo @virginmedia any updates on the North West Internet outage? Just went down during stream and still down atm

  • bencrawley82 Ben Crawley (@bencrawley82) reported

    @Ofcom How do I complain about @virginmedia - I am attempting to leave their service (in fact I already have a Talk Talk account) and they make it impossible to contact them to process a cancellation - I thought account was cancelled and found out they've still been charging me

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    And @virginmedia want me to pay if I decide instead of the uncertainty i want to cancel it and get someone like @SkyUK or @BT installed that can actually provide the service you pay them for

  • donelikeakipper Monsieur Soars (@donelikeakipper) reported

    Dear @virginmedia I have had to put up with a year of no telephone service after multiple visits and enduring the god forsaken hold music. Whilst I have come to terms with your staff never delivering, can you please provide an option to switch off the **** music whilst on hold.

  • SteveA_3 Steve Arliss (@SteveA_3) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    This is the exact reason I use the web chat!! To ensure conversation is saved on screenshots! So far today @virginmedia have been completely useless! Want me to pay for a service I'm not getting and they dont know when I will be able to get again

  • ajkeeley Andy (@ajkeeley) reported

    @virginmedia Another 1 hour on hold waiting in a queue. @richardbranson is this what you call customer service?

  • CindyHowkins Cindy HOWKINS (@CindyHowkins) reported

  • Breesey3 Chris Breese (@Breesey3) reported

    @virginmedia how hopeless their support is. Get cut off after over an hour waiting on phone, completely useless phone bot and no way to get to speak to a human. No service for 3days and no response #failvirginmedia

  • LouisEmm2205 Louis Emmanuel (@LouisEmm2205) reported

    @virginmedia provide the WORST service.. we are leaving them on December 4th but they cut our internet on November 12th.. I was told it would be back up in 72 hours only to call back on the 15th Nov to find out the request didn't get put through.. part 1
