-
Louis Romégoux (@RomegouxLouis) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia please sort the Sky Red button issue which is preventing Sheffield United fans subscribed to Virgin from experiencing the service they've paid for.
-
David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, EnglandAnd 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.....
-
Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, EnglandDad got rushed to hospital still in and @O2 connection is still not working in my house or mums @virginmedia mobile same problem (according to there test it’s fine) well try using it here especially when a loved one is ill and you can’t even connect a phone call &it’s a main road
-
John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.
-
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?!
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, EnglandAnyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls
-
Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England@koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈
-
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
-
Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported from Sheffield, EnglandCoincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.
-
Gary Steele (@steeleygash) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia why is the red button on sky sports football not working no option to watch the live games ?? Poor service
-
-BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers
-
Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia I've emailed MD and they called me within the hour and sorted my issue out within 10 minutes. You should be ashamed of yourselves
-
Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, EnglandHere we go its worked for a week virginmedia internet down rebooted worked for 2 mins down again ill check my status later usually goes off then comes back on and works again S65 area
-
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.
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England@mouthwaite @virginmedia I had awful internet for years with them best thing I ever did was change to sky and not only do I get more for my money it’s cheaper than what I was paying roughly three years ago xxxx
-
Callum 🏳️🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England@virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months
-
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
-
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?

-
lifeaintgreat24 (@lifeaintgreat24) reported@virginmedia 23 years as a customer I have just had to cancel due to your rep being unable to offer any kind of deal remotely close to what I am currently paying for this years renewal
-
paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported@virginmedia couid you explain how the renewal person couldn't help me cancel ? told me to ring someone else? said she was on her own no team no manager to talk to?
-
John Spencer 555 (@johnspencer555) reported@virginmedia Harlow here, Hub and TV down in afternoon, evening, and all night? It's back on this morning. As Hub does Telephone, it's difficult to find out what's happening.
-
Lynne Harper (@LynneHa33713143) reported@andyburnham Just keep issuing massive fines to these companies like you did with Virgin Media until these companies make it much less complicated to cancel their subscriptions.
-
Joe Stanley (@yosagojimbo) reportedCome on, why does my TV and internet keep going off @virginmedia ? Can't get through the 1st episode of reacher without the whole thing going off....why does your service consistently get worse each year?
-
Simone-Lee Deal (@StiffNips2) reported@JimMooreJourno CEO is too busy counting his £1 mil package to give a ****, and Burnham shows no interest in dealing with it. Amazing that it's a merry-go-round of useless bastards buggering up companies; he used to be at British Gas, equal only to Virgin Media for dissatisfied customers.
-
CallMeMo (@CallMeMoMow) reported@virginmedia You are aware of how absolutely dogshit your Hub 5 is for anything other than brand new tech devices aren't you? I'd like compensation for the piss poor performance please and thank you
-
LeedsLadSam (@LeedsLadSam1) reportedIf anyone’s @virginmedia red button plus channels aren’t working for the football the best thing to do is login to the sky sports app/website. Click login with virgin media. Once logged in you can watch the games. 👌🏼 #virginmedia #skysports
-
Elaine Walsh (@mabaker_moz) reported@virginmedia here we are again … wfh and it’s been impossible since lunch time. Dublin 6W area . When is expected return to service ? Service checker says there’s a fault
-
m (@RamsbottomMark) reported@cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam got the same with virgin media ..needs a regulation like with car insurance where they have to offer you the same deal as a new customer
