  • 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?

    @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?

  • 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

  • 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?

  • Yorkie_Jock Derek Libberton 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Yorkie_Jock) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hello, we had a letter saying work would be carried out on broadband 23rd Oct, my partner is at home today booked into an NHS online training course and has no service. Called cust svcs, msg says work being carried out today. Why no notification?

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @virginmedia Well it keeps cutting out and I still haven't had a response about my broken network port on the router. I'm just stuck

  • 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 😤😤😤

  • 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

  • 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

  • Saphysaft Saphy (@Saphysaft) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia could somebody help pleas? I have a question about a broadband package and installation that no FAQ or community question has answered (that I could find) and there is no phone number or live chat. Thanks in advance :)

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @richardbranson yo! Can you fix my internet? @virginmedia

  • SammyJT77 Samantha Harrison (@SammyJT77) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia how do you not have an email address for customer service? You are asking that we don’t call unless it’s urgent but then all other options (text bot in particular) are not fit for purpose.

  • 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!!!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • CEjottings Norman Perrin (@CEjottings) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Rung 151 before. Just done again. Same recorded message. No help whatsoever. How about suspending my monthly charge until you sort out the problem?

  • Michaelh747 Michael Harrison (@Michaelh747) reported from Staveley, England

    @virginmedia Well one of my network ports still isn't working. Had the router for years. Anyway I can get a replacement?

  • markmoylan Mark Moylan (@markmoylan) reported

    @virginmedia I have been told every day there is no fault! Then that the signal from my hub is too low. Friday when the tech was coming would be two weeks! Now what? I’m left two weeks down the line with nothing! There is clearly something else a going on

  • blondie_helene Hélène LDP (@blondie_helene) reported

    Hey @virginmedia, could you explain to me why pay £60 per month, for no internet access? It is not getting better, it’s actually getting worst! Your service is a proper joke! Because of that, the heating system in our house doesn’t work properly and we have a little baby!

  • mariemrswood marie wood (@mariemrswood) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve reset network, signed in and out of icloud, changed the number on phone setting, turned off/on but now stuck as imessages aren’t working it is buffering on the number and says waiting for activation - any help appreciated. Thanks

  • aghorsley Alicia Ahmet (@aghorsley) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to resolves this problem since Saturday. Tech support were calling me to help.. they left a voicemail but my phone did not ring for me to answer.

  • budleigh_beagle Budleigh TM 💙 (@budleigh_beagle) reported

    @virginmedia ....I’ve contacted your customer support by phone, which took hours & they promised we would be disconnected but still nothing. I’m not paying after 25 Feb! #virginmedia

  • daniell50725302 danielle roach (@daniell50725302) reported

    @virginmedia It’s a bit poor when we can’t even get through to speak to customer services, we’re paying for a service and haven’t had it for 2 days, hopefully they will offer someone off the bill atleast

  • nazmantoo Naz Mantoo (@nazmantoo) reported

    @virginmedia Made a complaint over 8 weeks ago, and still no response. Apparently I can have it independently reviewed by CISAS as it has been that old! But yet I get a call from your staff yesterday, despite this, who tried to up sell me as a resolution to my complaint. Great service that is

  • UFC_NEWS_UK UK UFC NEWS (@UFC_NEWS_UK) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken to 3 members of your team, logged a complaint and been promised 5 callbacks, yet have not had a single call from your team. Why do you think that I should now spend more of my time trying to chat virtually with them? Your team should be calling me to make this right

  • JenMcG03 Jennifer McGuigan (@JenMcG03) reported

    @virginmedia awful customer service. Very disappointed

  • ReedGooner 🔴📖⚪️ (@ReedGooner) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Simply put, the sales person missold the package and I’m now being told I’m not entitled to what I was promised at point of sale. Send me a DM and I will provide the complaint reference.
