  • 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

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?!

  • Helen_Claire71 Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

  • 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.

  • victimsvoice73 Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia I had awful internet for years with them best thing I ever did was change to sky and not only do I get more for my money it’s cheaper than what I was paying roughly three years ago xxxx

  • 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.😔

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

  • 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 🙈

  • 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

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Only have broadband but it causes streaming issues. Service been terribly disrupted now for a couple of months.

  • 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!!!

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

  • millersfm2011 Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia No it's always slow lately

  • 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

  • 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

  • sihackett86 simon (@sihackett86) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi recieved an email regarding an upgrade on WiFi network for hub 3 can you tell me what has been upgraded so I am able to alter my devices accordingly please

  • JimHawkins12 Jim Hawkins 🐝 (@JimHawkins12) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down yet again, shocking service by Virgin

  • Samm1976 Samantha Donnelly (@Samm1976) reported

    @virginmedia My mother in law was paying for Line and BB, my partner called to add tv for her and he wanted to pay for the service for her. This wasn’t done, so 2 accounts, we called in sept 2020 to cancel the service and only the tv was done, so you have continued to charge her for a service

  • Looopylu13 jojo (@Looopylu13) reported

    @virginmedia constant issues with tv & broadband. And constant issues with trying to get through to a person to speak to. Shocking service from a company that charge so much. Will be leaving soon 😡

  • Tarl_knight Tarlia (@Tarl_knight) reported

    @virginmedia worst service from your customer service team apparently you have no complaints procedure either?

  • playzone1000 Matt Wood (@playzone1000) reported

    @virginmedia your ruining my day!!! No wonder your @Trustpilot score is so awful. You shouldn’t be allowed to supply services

  • lemonfreshrob Rob Morris (@lemonfreshrob) reported

    Oh, and guess what? Just had a text putting that visit on hold while they investigate a network issue in our area... GAH! Seriously @virginmedia DO BETTER!

  • ashthethroat Ashley Cleaver (@ashthethroat) reported

    @virginmedia My money was not yours to take! I was paying you for 100mbs and averaging speeds of 25. I was always losing connection, I could not work from home! Your poor excuse for an internet provider could not fix it! You team have no idea what they are doing

  • CliveR39 Clive Richardson (@CliveR39) reported

    4 30pm @virginmedia advisor "it's your hub sir, engineer call booked'. I know it's a network fault, as usual, and 3 hours later this is confirmed by text. May need new hub but NOT paying £35 engineer fee to click mouse to set up!

  • 82ladyK Kirsty Richards (@82ladyK) reported

    @virginmedia Finally managed to check the box when the wifi went on my phone. Nothing flashing. It does say weak security on the wifi... could anyone else be accessing it perhaps? It’s very slow service - not just evenings but mornings too. Sporadic really. #PoorWifi #Virgin

  • samuelmoore2309 OpDwarff (@samuelmoore2309) reported

    @virginmedia So they reimbursed me £300 for technical issues but then took £180 of that because of new WiFi set up. I was deliberately misled and this info was left out of the charge . They then refused to let me speak to a manager. They said a manager would call me before 5:30! Never happene
