-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

Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service
-
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.
-
Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.
-
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.
-
V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England@virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service
-

Sir Moanalot (@Sir_Moanalot_) reported@Benleo @virginmedia They are awful. I’ve been stuck with an exorbitantly priced rolling contract because I plan to move house soon and have no idea if wherever I move to will have VM cable in the street. Zero reward for customer loyalty. When I do finally move, @virginmedia can get in the bin.
-

Rick (@rickta1) reported@virginmedia @Benleo Generic replies and absolutely unforgivable call centres off shores just to make that bit more money out of millions- all the while providing an awful service!!!!! Leave them like so many of us all have. Loyalty means nothing to them.
