  • millersfm2011 Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia Well this is a cracking start. A call back tomorrow rescues the situation. Been a virgin customer since broadband came along. Fingers crossed.

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

    Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

  • sihackett86 simon (@sihackett86) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi recieved an email regarding an upgrade on WiFi network for hub 3 can you tell me what has been upgraded so I am able to alter my devices accordingly please

  • 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 ****.

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia No it's always slow lately

  • 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.....??

  • 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.....

  • 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.

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

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

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Only have broadband but it causes streaming issues. Service been terribly disrupted now for a couple of months.

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

  • victimsvoice73 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

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If 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.😔

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

    @virginmedia mandatory internet down again S65

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

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

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

  • Amy_1867 Amy 🦉 (@Amy_1867) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia whenever I’m on zoom upstairs and away from my route my wifi always seems to drop out. It’s always says my internet connection is unstable. I’ve restarted router etc is there anything else I can do to boost it

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • ReeceBryan94 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

    @virginmedia Virgin isn’t giving a current fix time it’s been a sliding scale and coming up to 48 hours by morning. All virgin users in my road in Crouch End N8 are looking at other options

  • PeterHarar Tech N food (@PeterHarar) reported

    @virginmedia Co@plaint raised and ignored basically have to carry in paying.. even tough I’m not getting the service I was promised. It’s like you buy bread half is rotten but you still got it doesn’t matter if half is rotten.. you still got other half that’s how Virgin attitude is.
