    @virginmedia hello, my grandmother is having issues with her TiVo Box, she's checked the cables and I've been online to check for service outage, and there's isn't any reported Can you help?

  • BMiller36990477 -BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

  • ClaireWinslade Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported from Sheffield, England

    Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

  • martinaspiers Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England

    @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

  • w47carr Mrs c (@w47carr) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia why am h getting the message that my cable is broken

  • DeborahTaylor3 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

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

  • mandybaps1 Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Useless you haven't addressed my points. I will go directly to the managing director Lutz Schueler. Really disappointed and I woukd have expected better considering I have been a loyal customer.

    @virginmedia Do you have a business outage in S8? Can't get through to anyone. Wondering whether to send everyone home?

  • benbrailsford Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

  • mandybaps1 Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I've emailed MD and they called me within the hour and sorted my issue out within 10 minutes. You should be ashamed of yourselves

  • Adz_lufc adam (@Adz_lufc) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia your chat bot is broken, how hard it is yo actually speak yo someone who knows what they are talking about

  • mandybaps1 Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.

  • rwgladwin Richard Gladwin (@rwgladwin) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia were there issues in S9 around 1020 this morning?

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

  • lotpot17 lottie (@lotpot17) reported

    @virginmedia I think you’ve furloughed too many members of staff... could do with a few more on customer service

  • vzzbucks vzzbucks (@vzzbucks) reported

    @virginmedia Since getting your SuperHub 4 our internet cuts out several times a day and only comes back on by turning the hub off and on. Your service status website can’t run diagnostics on my “shiny new hub”. Can you send me my old, ***** hub back? This new one is crap.

  • bazzacollins Barry Collins (@bazzacollins) reported

    @virginmedia Can you give any update on the problem? You appear to have cut an entire town off for over 24 hours, your service status says everything is fine, you told me to contact your text line, who sent me a text six hours ago asking if I'm at home and hasn't replied since.

  • ashleyhannan_ Ashley Hannan (@ashleyhannan_) reported

    - @virginmedia have to be one of the most incompetent companies I have ever dealt with. 3 engineers out, countless phone calls to rude support and as a new customer to be left without internet at home, when advised to work from home during a global pandemic is absolutely shameful

  • CharlieOsman Charlie Osman (@CharlieOsman) reported

    @Kerrieb86 @virginmedia The service page just keeps rolling back. Get to the time stated and it’s delayed. It’s of no use.

  • CharlieOsman Charlie Osman (@CharlieOsman) reported

    @virginmedia @Kerrieb86 It would be great if Virgin Media could be the ones letting us know how it’s going instead of asking the customer to do the job for you? Shocking lack of communication about a problem that’s knocked out the whole area.

  • AFCGoonerPaul Record Cup Winners (@AFCGoonerPaul) reported

    Ah the local MP has now tweeted about the @virginmedia outage to Burgess Hill. At this point I am just assuming the spare parts to fix this are stuck in a lorry in Calais somewhere.

  • Rachel_Buckland Rachel (@Rachel_Buckland) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to get in contract but very impossible if you aren’t an existing customer. An NTL world email has been hacked and we need the account deactivated ASAP.

  • lotpot17 lottie (@lotpot17) reported

    @virginmedia totally inexcusable customer service.

  • DominoRappo Dominic Rhapsody (@DominoRappo) reported

    Great, first we can’t see our loved ones and now we can’t speak to them either thanks to a Happy Christmas from @virginmedia Apparently an engineer needs to confirm that said broken box is broke and one can’t come out to do that until the 31st December 😡😡😡
