-
David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, EnglandAnd the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....
-

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.

-
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
-
Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, EnglandI’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia
-
Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, EnglandIf 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.😔
-
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.

Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I need to speak to customer services about a mis sold installation
-
Yorkshire Chuff (@YorkshireChuff) reported from Sheffield, EnglandReading all the tweets from you idiots who haven't got unlimited 5g hotspot. Been paying for this for years. For this very moment. **** you #virginmedia
-
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.
-
Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England@virginmedia mandatory internet down again S65
-
John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!
-
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
-
Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England@virginmedia Well this is a cracking start. A call back tomorrow rescues the situation. Been a virgin customer since broadband came along. Fingers crossed.
-
Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV
-
Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel
-
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
-
lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia first day of your internet snd massive regrets ! Can I cancel ? Cutting out constantly 😫

-
Iain Patrick (@iaindpatrick) reported@virginmedia hi guys. Internet out from just before 10.30am this morning. Status page says sorted by 3pm tomorrow (that its self is unacceptable) got a text saying service is restored, but its not, so why send a misleading message? Poor service and customer experience.
-
alex jones (@alex___jones) reported@virginmedia I can’t sign in as my email address has changed. No one at Virgin can be bothered to help. Complained numerous times. Shocking company
-
Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported@virginmedia This issue has been around for over 2 weeks, your CS staff are telling customers including staff members there is no issue and "just swap out to the stream boxes" which does not fix the problem! Between Virgin and @skytv there should be a months bill reimbursed for each issue!!
-
Gaz (@gazzawefc) reported@VirginMediaIE Day 3 of no Broadband.... cannot contact customer care, disgraceful carry on from Virgin Media....
-
💅🏼 (@mb26026) reported@ScouseBouncy @SkySports @virginmedia we are also having the same issue trying to watch, keeps freezing every time on the red button!
-
stevefairclough (@stevefairclough) reported@virginmedia What a shitshow. Possibly the worst experience I’ve had in my life trying to deal with your crappy AI bots… I’d appreciate a phone number….
-
Ralph (@RlphWigs) reported@virginmedia @Smallworth_xx Bet it wouldn’t take this long to fix if it was affecting premier league teams.
-
John Spencer 555 (@johnspencer555) reported@virginmedia Harlow here, Hub and TV down in afternoon, evening, and all night? It's back on this morning. As Hub does Telephone, it's difficult to find out what's happening.
-
PD1882 (@PD1_8_8_2) reported@virginmedia what’s wrong with your virgin media tv? Did an ‘update’ and now every time I turn on the tv it loads into TiVo and I have to go back to Virgin again. And now your red button for Sky sports doesn’t work. Tell me how to fix these issues, they’re maddening.
-
Chris Cooper 💚📻📺🎓⚽🏈 (@ChrisCoopsSport) reportedGreat start to the season for @virginmedia with red button games not working properly. Oh, it's not the Premier League so it doesn't matter.
