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

-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
-
Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported from Sheffield, EnglandMoved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

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

ThatGoku (@ThatFoxGoku) reportedVirgin Media down again in my area. Was looking forward to streaming today. Good job it’s not my livelihood. Imagine being a big streamer earning thousands a day and this happens. That’d be a big compensation bill going to #virginmedia
-
Triggerology (@TriggerologyUK) reported@virginmedia my Internet has been down for over 12 hours in the RG23 area. Can you at least tell us the issue?
-
Colm Brogan (@colmbrogan76) reported@irishpatriot91 Cancel your virgin media subscription
-
michaela👑💋 (@michaelad1997) reportedSomeone give us a good WiFi provider. Currently with @Hyperoptic that is shocking, TV loads every 2 minutes. Also been with @virginmedia and NEVER again, shocking connection. So yeah an actual decent recommendation would be nice
-
Jacob (@jacsal2244) reported@virginmedia I’ve had no WiFi for over a week now and everyone fix date gets pushed, I’ve now blew through my data like how are people meant to work and stuff??
-
Eamonn Hunt (@eamonnhunt) reported@virginmedia you need to up your game guys. Two weeks of intermittent connectivity and the best you can do is tell me that I need someone to come to my home but Ill have to pay a £25 fee if I miss the booking slot. How about I charge you £25 per day for lack of service?
-
Sonic (@MrSonicAdvance) reported@virginmedia What I found frustrating, was that if I trimmed features from my package, the monthly price would go up, and if I added additional features the monthly price would go down. Utterly perverse! The whole process left me frustrated and bemused. Lovely people on your team, though. 👍
-
Terry Lee (@tezlee1) reportedHelp! there was a fault in my area, but Im told its resolved, my router is still flashing red so a full outage still exits. The call center in India had no idea what to do and kept referring to a different ongoing outage. No service but no recorded outage! Help!! @virginmedia
-
Caroline (@finn33) reported@virginmedia I’ve done the trouble shooting steps. You’ve checked that I’ve paid my bills. Hence the comment about the engineer. I don’t need to give you any other details.
-
Ashley Smith (@AshleySmithUK) reported@virginmedia New contract Jul 31. Netflix completely broken, web throwing errors, and profile is showing an incorrect phone number that isn't mine. Called, used WhatsApp, zero help. Logged formal complaint and got a generic 28-day wait. Unacceptable customer service. Fix this.
