  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

  • michaeltruefitt Michael Truefitt (@michaeltruefitt) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you planning on giving all your customers a discount for your constant broadband issues and not delivering what people are paying for? I see it was fixed earlier but it’s gone down once again in the last hour. It seems to be a daily occurrence now.

  • DjDno Dean Blavins (@DjDno) reported from Chadwell, England

    Ffs, there it goes again!! Sort your **** out @virginmedia

  • W4lshy_85 jennie walsh (@W4lshy_85) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia once again absolute outstanding useless customer care 👌🏻 #virginmedia #gotosky 👍🏼

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    @virginmedia If you can sort out the compensation for the 2 weeks loss of service, that'd be great 👍

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    FINALLY!!! After raising a serious complaint with @virginmedia with the prospect of the ombudsman getting involved... They've finally got my services up and running Now all that remains is for them to sort out some compensation and then we can pretend this never happened

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    2 weeks now and I still haven't got any service from @virginmedia!!!! I'm starting to think they're doing this on purpose

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Narborough, England

    I'm seriously considering cancelling @virginmedia!!! I'm getting ****** off with them. 11 days without a service is unacceptable!!!

  • DenhamKite Denham Kite (@DenhamKite) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia - what number do I call to talk to a real person to sort this rubbish before I cancel?

  • ollieg21296 Ollie (@ollieg21296) reported from Ketteringham, England

    @virginmedia Hi guys, I’ve put my UK sim card in my phone while I’m back in the country (I’m still paying the contract) - but I’ve had the sim in for 9 hours and I’m still not receiving any service. Can you assist please?

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia @O2 @peterkay_co_uk I think your service is a laughing show. Years and nothing ever fixed finally time to move on.

  • MonikP_97 Monik Patel (@MonikP_97) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    @virginmedia Definitely the worst broadband provider. How are you meant to wfh with no internet ??

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm looking at the new Sky Stream service that starts on 18th October combined with Three 5G broadband. Both offer rolling 1 month contracts

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia So whilst on the phone you put us through to get a dongle as an emergency and you tried to charge us £39! Wow the cheek of it!

  • aquarius16th Neil Walley💙🇺🇦 (@aquarius16th) reported

    @virginmedia Tried that & the sign in link takes me to the same Skysports app page that does not work

  • aquarius16th Neil Walley💙🇺🇦 (@aquarius16th) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, I have always been able to watch Skysports on my android tablet, until after the recent security update. For info, I can sign in to Skysports app via Virgin TV UK link on my mobile. Seems to be isolated to my tablet. I have unistalled & reinstalled the skysports app

  • aquarius16th Neil Walley💙🇺🇦 (@aquarius16th) reported

    @virginmedia No, not on my Android tablet as I am unable to reach the 'Virgin TV UK' sign in page. Pressing the button on the sign in page has no functionality. However, I can watch Skysports content on my laptop by normal signing in.

  • DavexPatrick Dave Patrick (@DavexPatrick) reported

    @virginmedia Email is now sorted but I still can’t log into my virgin media on my iPad I either get a blank white screen or the timing logo .. is this still an ongoing issue?

  • aquarius16th Neil Walley💙🇺🇦 (@aquarius16th) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, My Virginmedia & TVGo apps are working as normal. I believe it is a broken link on the Skysports sign in page. The Virgin TV UK button to enable me to sign in does not work.

  • HiyaItsRhiann Rhiann (@HiyaItsRhiann) reported

    @virginmedia having serious problems linking virgin media account to virgin media O2 ID account - correct email used despite it telling me it’s not and I have an email to confirm 02 account is linked to virgin account - very frustrating - please help!!

  • aquarius16th Neil Walley💙🇺🇦 (@aquarius16th) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately I am still unable to reach the sign in page via 'virgin tv uk' button on Skysports app. I have cleared the app data/cache & even reinstalled. All to no avail.

  • dishesrdone74 Chris Denton (@dishesrdone74) reported

    @virginmedia Done that. Still get into anything that requires a virgin media sign in.

  • dishesrdone74 Chris Denton (@dishesrdone74) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I've tried this many times but can't get past the email verification link page which puts me back to the last Internet page I was on. So I can't sign into anything that requires a virgin media sign in. Still stuck.

  • No_Bikers The EA 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸🇮🇱 #FBAH (@No_Bikers) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, there was nothing listed. However I discovered via local media there was a major outage near Dumbarton, however there was nothing on the website or app. The call centre didn't know either. Lasted most of the day. Pretty poor Comms.
