Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!
-

-
Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England@StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Thanks for absolutely no help what so ever. Please fix your issues

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
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all
-
Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, EnglandAnyone else’s @virginmedia WiFi down ?Mines been down nearly 24 hrs 🥲

Andrew Poppleton 💙 (@popsgolf) reported from Wentworth, England@O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?
-
Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response
-
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
-
Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, EnglandIf 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.😔
-
🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia No it's always slow lately
-
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?!

Craig Peachey (@mrpeach1985) reportedSince the power cut on Saturday my @virginmedia broadband has been poor. Constant connection drops. Missed Kanes winner coz of it! Raging!
-

-
Keivin Crane (@kcranebda) reported@virginmedia At you can see, attention to detail has been missed within this response. My name is spelled wrong. Why am I not surprised. I’ve contacted their customer service 4 times and even walked into stores. It is still not resolved. They should reach out to me. #not-impressed
-
mark teasel💙💙💙 (@Mteasel67) reported@virginmedia is your website down at all ? , I'm trying to look at some links you sent me earlier ( via X) and all I get is an error message 403 forbidden 🤔
-
Lyn Prodger (she/her) (@Prodgey) reported@virginmedia Still no WiFi and now the call I was supposed to receive yesterday between 12 and 4 - guess what nobody called me! I just rang today to complain about not receiving the cal and the fix has been moved again from 4th July to 8th July. That will be 16 days. What is causing this
-
Some-Nick1976 (@Some_Nick1976) reported@virginmedia The issue is that it drops in and out constantly throughout these times. When it does eventually come back on it is very slow
-
Bhavin (@Bhavinmaru2020) reported@virginmedia Hi if there is fault in the area shouldn’t the engineers working on it now to fix it!
-
Molecule (@MoleculeClips) reportedThank **** the World cup games are on RTE and not @VirginMediaIE because holy **** the virgin media player is so bad. Like I can't even watch Love island Island on it. I keep getting a "Failed to connect to To streams API" pop up. Tech team must be asleep
-
aldo (@ukaldo2) reported@virginmedia Ok which area was that, You've not asked, it's clear your customer service levels are poor!

IFB Media (@IFBMedia) reportedThis is the problem LOI TV and Virgin Media can’t solve on their own. Both have done more for this league in a few years than RTÉ managed in decades. Let that sit for a second. A streaming service and a commercial broadcaster have outworked the national broadcaster on its own game. RTÉ isn’t short on money. It’s short on will. Every household in this country funds that broadcaster through the licence fee. League of Ireland clubs are part of that country too. Yet the domestic game still gets treated like an inconvenience, squeezed out whenever something bigger comes along… That’s not neutrality. That’s a broadcaster showing you exactly where its priorities sit. And it ain’t with covering our Domestic Football teams irrespective of whether it’s home, abroad or both. Other platforms shouldn’t be doing RTÉ’s job for it. They shouldn’t have to. A national broadcaster shows up for the national game. Consistently. Not when it suits the schedule. Until RTÉ treats League of Ireland like it matters, everyone else will keep doing the job it was funded to do. That’s not a compliment to the others. It’s an indictment of RTÉ. This is exactly why Irish football needs a genuine TV deal, not scraps of coverage from whoever happens to show up. The prize money isn’t there. The funding model is fragile. A real broadcast deal is how you finally finance this league properly. Until that exists, moments like this keep repeating.
