-
Elliot ⚽️🏈🎮 (@SourEnvy) reported from Preston, England@virginmedia Afternoon, I have an iPad with a Virgin SIM card that I no longer use. Obviously still need to pay off the monthly device fee but am I able to cancel the SIM plan?
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
Ian Forrest (@IanForrest10) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia Plugged in new Wi-Fi hub all good. Paired new remote with box but upgrade to box failed error code M63. Bot is all over place customer service rep basically non-engineer saying turn it off on again!
-
LeChonk (@J_w_D94) reported from Horwich, England@virginmedia Hi, I'm tweeting from the device I'm having connectivity and signal issues with, I've looked on the website and it's not stating if you're having network issues or not.

zach close YT 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia you are so crap we don't pay you to keep having problems daily
-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, EnglandWho in their right mind schedules planned maintenance for a Monday morning and says it could go on until three pm? Oh yeah, @virginmedia - cracking service as always #workfromhome #muppets
-
TheAspiLawStudent #NoReturns (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England@nerdscav @the_hinchy @virginmedia Yes because a WiFi extender will fix the issue when it's the incoming line and not the hardware 😳. The routers gives a 3ping and 1GBps connection. The issue is virgin's crappy network 👍
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@Virgin @virginmedia I've had no Internet now for 14 days and my bill is due in 2 days. This is disgusting service, your call centre staff are useless, your engineers are useless, this is appalling for £52 a month. Sort the problem out now.
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.
-
BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England@virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH
-
Stephen Murtagh (@TheRealRagtag) reported from Penwortham, EnglandNot very often I say good things about @virginmedia but todays service was excellent. Peter sorted out Wi-fi problem, wavered the set up fee, and arranged a new hub after lots of line tests. Thank you. (But will have no service for 6 days in all.🙄 Refund?)
-
Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!

🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported from Bury, England@virginmedia It's nothing you can help with on twitter unfortunately 😞.
-
🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported from Bury, England@virginmedia Hi. Is there a difference between cat 5E & cat6 & cat7 ethernet performance wise on your network 🤔. I'm using cat 6 ethernet from my hub 3.0 to your provided powerline booster . Then from powerline booster to my V6 box. I'm using cat7 ethernet from hub 3.0 to V6 🤔
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.
-
Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported from Salford, England@virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia I reported a total loss of service on 31/8. It was finally fixed this morning. After no shows, lies and weeks between visits. They have not even offered to cover the cost of my last 3 dd’s which I wish I hadn’t paid as I had no service whatsoever

lisa kitching (@lisakitching1) reported@virginmedia I literally tried all day yesterday to get through to someone, web chat and WhatsApp weren’t working . How are we supposed to get support if can’t contact anyone
-
Santhosh🌏🕊️ (@SubraSanthosh) reported@virginmedia This is bullshit. No internet and phone for over 5 days. I want to cancel the contract and join someone reliable.
-
Mandie (@themandiespence) reported@virginmedia I'm having trouble signing into O2 priority. Please help
-
Owain (@OCP_84) reported@virginmedia @quidco @Top_CashBack ...which always inevitably routes the customer to cancellations after being offered an initial substandard rip off deal. You are treating your current members like dirt. You really have to review your retention initiatives, and put offers in place for EXISTING CUSTOMERS
-
Carole Winter (@CaroleWinter) reported@virginmedia please answer the phone. You are one broken system
-
Steve McKenna 🇮🇪🇬🇧🐕💚 (@SteveMcKenna2) reported@virginmedia been waiting for your call since Saturday, been private messaging several times a day since last week. Appalling service.

-
Josh (@6HLJ_) reportedHi @virginmedia my internets back down again today. Any chance of flicking switch for a couple of hours? Ta Josh xoxoxo
-
Dave in IT (@dbaa3) reported@JoshCF_ Virgin Media did this exact thing to me, so I gave them my notice. Had 3-5 missed calls a day for an entire month afterwards, until I answered and they offered me a better deal, but I turned it down out of principle! No reward for loyalty.
