  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

  • AnnielizzieSten 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

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ ☮️ (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @DysphasiaPV @virginmedia Product is good but customer service terrible

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia first day of your internet snd massive regrets ! Can I cancel ? Cutting out constantly 😫

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Yes it’s signal and tried o2 got nowhere xx thanks for the reply

  • VanceBulla V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

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

    @virginmedia Yes both mum n dad are virgin and we’re still getting no signal

  • ArmitageJohn John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  • maddyarden Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  • DeborahTaylor3 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

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

  • samthompson98_ Sam (@samthompson98_) reported from Rotherham, England

    Sky sports red button not working with @virginmedia there’s a shock

  • 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.

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

  • TezzaBelle88 Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, England

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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No and tbh no apology for my internet not working since the day after install Friday and now I've been threatened in in contract ! I have 14 days to cancel can you confirm please . Im not paying for a fault after 5 days plus it's not worked from install .

  • AnnielizzieSten Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

  • bonghand Avik Ghoshal (@bonghand) reported

    @DavidMegicks @AskPS_UK @virginmedia You getting a 129mbps! I get 40 at most with Virgin wifi and that red bar is omnipresent. It's horrible. Wasn't the case 3-4 months ago with the same connection.

  • 1201Sam Sam hutchings (@1201Sam) reported

    @SoulfulScotsman @virginmedia Totally agree. Completely random as it’s started working again but for the money paid by everyone it’s a problem that shouldn’t be happening

  • dmcropley Dave Cropley (@dmcropley) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand this. I am going to spend time with my kids this afternoon, not sat on the phone troubleshooting a service I pay £600+ a year for. Not impressed.

  • gregarus Greg hook (@gregarus) reported

    @NatBradyoldlady @virginmedia I feel your pain, same with us, they disconnected us even after we told them not to, they said they had no recollection of me saying not to so I said to listen to the call, they just skirted around the issue, will never use them again, good luck in getting sorted tho

  • gregarus Greg hook (@gregarus) reported

    @Sesselwakey @virginmedia If they’ve put the price up mid contract you can leave without any fees I will never use @virginmedia ever again due to their poor customer service

  • RichieH37745130 Richie Hall (@RichieH37745130) reported

    @virginmedia I am an employee and trying to help customers and show and set and example @virginmedia #lovemyjob #virginmedia

  • jollybeggars Michael Bailey (@jollybeggars) reported

    @AnnCleeves @virginmedia The problem with Virgin is that while the actual connection is generally the fastest and most solid you can get, the Superhub 3 router is absolute junk, and will fall over at the drop of a hat. Get powerline WiFi extenders and it'll probably be great.

  • gm8arv David Taylor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 (@gm8arv) reported

    @AnnCleeves @virginmedia Whilst I would not rate VM customer service at all, I have received automatic upgrades since starting in 2000 at IIRC 512 kbps, now 200 Mbps. Possibly one or two paid upgrades in there as well. If the issue is due to Wi-Fi I can’t recommend a supplier as I run my own Wi-Fi.

  • yangzyylhr Yu Hsuan Yang (@yangzyylhr) reported

    @virginmedia Hello AB, no I don’t. Requested several times online but it never comes. On the forum I saw you can also arrange local engineer visiting to collect at door. Would it be possible for us to do the same please?

  • jawaid_mr WRESTLING (@jawaid_mr) reported
