    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!!!

    Anyone else’s @virginmedia WiFi down ?Mines been down nearly 24 hrs 🥲

  • HarlamTK
    Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

  • tevowl9
    Adam (@tevowl9) reported from Brinsworth, England

    @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

    @calvg @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 Stop blaming us and be responsible for your crap connections

    Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

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

    @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

  • 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

  • AndrewKerrison6
    Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

  • paul_phillips83
    Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia been on hold 15 minutes your agent been back to me yet again same telling me I have to pay extra why do virgin think that if you charge extra this will fix an issue #badcustomerservice actually get it right first time to stop repeat calls

  • Sedontane
    Thomas Foster (@Sedontane) reported from Newbold, England

    @nickkzie @scazz786 @virginmedia I have their business broadband, it's been awful. I then pulled the Internet cable out of the modem and fell back on the 4G backup on my plan. Fixed. I'll plug the cable back in tomorrow and get my speed back.

  • andyksheffield
    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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • xjuewx
    Jules Tee (@xjuewx) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia not good when my 82yr old mum was left with no phone service so no health emergency service and city wide alarm for the last 2 days.... not good enough !!!!

  • 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 ****.

  • 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.

  • giinagii
    GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? 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?!

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia Mad concept but it is possible for both Ireland to be poor and the ref have had a poor game.

    @virginmedia internet out again. This is the 5th week now for UB10 area. Still saying fix date of 17th July when it’s the 21st today. Any update please?!!?

    @0xsachi I think "moat" is just a polite way of saying monopoly. First mover advantage builds a brand and customer stickiness, and I think this should be the goal, personally. But all these anti-competitive practices like making cancelling services ridiculously hard (hello @virginmedia ) or walling the garden once you get enough users (hello @facebook Open Graph) should be cracked down on, in my opinion.

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Good luck trying to cancel the contract. Virgin media have been fined for not letting people leave.

    @virginmedia my internet suddenly stopped working in the middle of the night, I've tried to scan the password to reconnect but that's not working. I've unplugged the router and that didn't work either. Any suggestions?
