  • whittickdiver paul whittick (@whittickdiver) reported from Sprotbrough, England

    @virginmedia after five years of custom you would rather me terminate my contract that provide me with the new router that you promised me as part of my new deal! Diabolical service!

  • 67BLADE 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

  • Ray_Lennox Tom Clark (@Ray_Lennox) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with WiFi in Sheffield. It’s been awful for weeks

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I had Virgin broadband installed yesterday but need a landline . Unable to get through to customer services. Should have been set up with the broadband . Engineer said I was miss sold the standalone package . Now I’m without a phone.

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I need to speak to customer services about a mis sold installation

  • John_murphy1 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.

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.

  • peterboardman64 Peter Boardman (@peterboardman64) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia no internet service in Chesterfield S40? What’s the problem?

  • parky1021 simon parkinson (@parky1021) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia WiFi constantly dropping out. How do I fix this plz

  • cranworth791 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.

  • chococlaire77 Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, England

    Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

  • goonie2008 Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  • 67BLADE Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia mandatory internet down again S65

  • statto95 David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    And 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.....

  • TheG0000ner Gooner (@TheG0000ner) reported from Chesterfield, England

    Is there something wrong with @virginmedia at the moment. Got a very very crap speed of less than 1mbs #virginmedia #virginmobile in the S40 area. Can't log into my account either? 🤬 This is happening far too often for £69 a month!!!

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful

  • statto95 David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I pay £50 a month for my WiFi and Internet, any particular reason it keeps going down.....??

  • Sheffield_Boy Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

    @virginmedia was just called by customer service to resolve a complaint, told I would be transferred to a person and asked if the complaint could be closed, then put on hold for the technical team. 10 min already. worst customer service ever. Cant wait to switch.

  • danzeyss danzey! (@danzeyss) reported

    @JLKwrld @virginmedia I’m sure virgin are fuming that they lost outcast jlk as a customer and listening to your compliant.

  • Mandtakespics MissMac (@Mandtakespics) reported

    @virginmedia I can't get through to anyone via phone, live chat nor can I request cancellation of my contract when it ends. How am I supposed to cancel?

  • World_Le_Wise World Le Wise (@World_Le_Wise) reported

    @virginmedia Will you answer the bloody phone! I want to cancel my a/c but you ignore my letters and won't answer the phone!!!!! DO NOT GO WITH VIRGIN MEDIA!!!!!!

  • timbola81 Tim (@timbola81) reported

    Hey @virginmedia my TiVo box has been dead since Sunday. Stuck in a loop between online and a phone service that pushes me back online. Please can you send me a new box so I can get the service I pay for?

  • mnxl_ Mia Wallace 🕺🏾 (@mnxl_) reported

    @virginmedia hey are there issues in the Romford area? No internet and no landline

  • Eltel5150 Mark Terry (@Eltel5150) reported

    @virginmedia At least 4 times. We can’t get any consistency of contact from virgin. Unless it’s sorted today we will terminate the Agt with virgin and never be back. My wife used to sit on the board of VM (before Liberty) and then virgin grp. Downhill since then!

  • GSABizDev Jonathan - GSA (@GSABizDev) reported

    @virginmedia Seriously. Community forums? What I need is a router and fast and the best you can offer is Friday and no specific time. This is really shoddy customer service.

  • LondonHotspur London Hotspur (@LondonHotspur) reported

    @virginmedia Any chance of a reply? Bad enough you mess with peoples Internet, but to ignore customers questions is just poor service.

  • RianneBradbury r i a n n e ☆ (@RianneBradbury) reported

    @virginmedia And to confirm, using the text message facility, I would be able to cancel my TV package?
