Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, EnglandI’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia
-
John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England@virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband
-
Angelina Perrett (@liaryredhead) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond
-
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.
-
Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England@koffee_truffles @virginmedia It admits it’s not working .. says my coverage of a **** .. then offers to fix it for another £60/year .. same week they send me a letter to say my bill is increasing anyway .. clearly forgotten we’re in a pandemic!!!
-
simon parkinson (@parky1021) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia WiFi constantly dropping out. How do I fix this plz
-
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.
-
Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No one has informed me of this, I feel I have been misold again very poor. No one mentioned this previously I have been told it was a new promotional that was added, so again alot of tosh. Does anyone know what they are doing at virgin.
-
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.
-
Sam (@samthompson98_) reported from Rotherham, EnglandSky sports red button not working with @virginmedia there’s a shock
-
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.
-
Oli B (@olibrown77) reported from Sheffield, England@pauldevine1986 @virginmedia We are still down in S7. Nearly 24 hours now. Saying 2pm is the updated fix time. But that keeps getting pushed back 🙄😡

-
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
-
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
-
GAMING DRAGON (@GAMINGDRAGONUK) reported from Hoyland Nether, England@virginmedia I already have and I reported the fault bit it see like you have a service outage in my area
-
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
-
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.
-
paul whittick (@whittickdiver) reported from Sprotbrough, England@virginmedia after five years of custom you would rather me terminate my contract that provide me with the new router that you promised me as part of my new deal! Diabolical service!

Pachicin 🇬🇧 (@pachicin) reportedVirgin Media. An astonishingly **** company, even by the standards of the UK telecoms industry. You are an absolutely ******* appalling company. You utter ******* disgrace.
-
Keiran Griffiths (@Keiran_Mark) reported@vdaybabygirl85 @rayquannnnnnn @virginmedia Keeps dropping out? Which VM Hub do you have? I've just got upgraded free from the hub 3 to hub 5 and so far haven't had any drop outs. Give the customer services a call and ask for an engineer (free) and when they come, it's ifs the hub 3, they'll change it for free.
-
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?
-
Vix (@vix_no9) reported@virginmedia I am trying to resolve a billing a dispute which has been paid over month ago but is still showing as unpaid on your systems impacting credit scores and everything that goes along with that. No one can help me get this cleared. Missing payments dont respond to emails
-
Tracy (@tracybet) reported@Alexarmstrong @GBNEWS Major UK mobile network operators like Vodafone, Virgin Media O2,Tesco Mobile don't make direct cash donations to refugee charities, but instead donate technological equipment, free data, connectivity packages directly to refugees & asylum seekers through partnerships.
-
Roy Andrew Clarke (@royo42) reportedEvri have got to rate alongside Virgin Media as Bloody a awful excuse for a business!
-
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. 👍
-
Dansun (@elbondivad) reported@Ewan_Huzami @downdetector Down in East Surrey since yesterday too. Virgin Media app says service won't be restored until 11th August. Luckily I'm out of contract so I'm switching to Starlink
-
Rationalist44 (@rationalist44) reported@andyburnham You might like to add VIRGINMEDIA to your list of organisations that do everything they can to prevent customers ending contracts. They are THE WORST.

Ian Davies (@IDavies1979) reported@biggle1908 There Internet is faster but Virgin media are a nightmare to deal There by far the worst of all the platforms
