    @virginmedia Rebooted my phone earlier, no effect. Not actually had to call or text anyone today, but my signal icon has said 'Emergency Calls Only' all day. I'll definitely check that signal strength link though, thanks.

  • craigs06 ¿craig? (@craigs06) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Ran a test on the super hub itself. Its resolution to the Wi-Fi is to move close to it. Am 6 foot from it !

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....I just want to cancel Premier Sports. The guy who answered after 30 mins was polite but your system crashed twice. Not sure it's been cancelled and don't have another spare 30 mins to call again

  • SuperFlySimon Simon Burkinshaw (@SuperFlySimon) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why should I have to pay when I’m not being able to use the service I pay for

  • tal_kev kev adams (@tal_kev) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia come on now,This is getting pathetic now.trying to watch a film on Netflix and it's buffering all the time.15mps supposed to be 100mps.absolute joke.should be able to cancel contract as I am not getting what I pay for#falseadvertising#lyingthroughyourteeth

  • heaton2111 John Heaton (@heaton2111) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for response. It seems better this morning. All I needed to know is that it was a Virgin issue, not an issue with my hub.

  • Colderthananice Maxine Spencer (@Colderthananice) reported from Mexborough, England

    @MetLineDriver @virginmedia Remember they were on my bad company list

  • hollibob hollibob (@hollibob) reported from Doncaster, England

    @virginmedia well virgin I gave just phoned customer service because I want to leave only to be told I can’t do it over the phone as there too busy but can do it by letter WOW very 21st century

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No, everything on there is telling me 'very good'. But! Ironically, during this very exchange, my signal has popped up (although it's now not as strong as when I started writing this Tweet). Looks like me looking at the website has scared it into working. :D

  • NickNwarhurst Nick Warhurst (@NickNwarhurst) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia the company that’s only looks after new customers, not long serving ones. Me: paying £34 for vivid100. New customers £29 or £34 for vivid200. VM customer services, well you can have vivid200 for only £54. 😳🤬

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It's the same place & situation as yesterday, and, once again, after a few hours of no signal, once I actually Tweet about it, it suddenly reappears! No worries here now, ta.

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia Yes, dispite your Call Centre saying no area issues your status page says otherwise. Fix at 10pm. Lost all services not just internet.

  • Plezdiz Dean Haith🍋🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Plezdiz) reported from Doncaster, England

    @tyreboy2 @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia Think twice.. I've had virgin for years excellent..but since the intelligent upgrade can't connect in bathroom n upstairs. When i phone they said I need boosters..n so did the app. Purchased no change. Family n friends have same problems.. it's a minefield outthere..

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....it's about time that you had a service where you cancel part of your package via your TV.....30 mins on hold isn't funny😡

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I didn't realise when I negotiated a deal I'd be automatically entitled to no compensation and rubbish customer services. Lesson learnt.

  • tryfbellamy tryf (@tryfbellamy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia gunna sort your shit internet out or what

  • TCH5122 Tomh51 (@TCH5122) reported

    @virginmedia OK so you can't help me. I can't get through on the phone line. The text message service doesn't respond. Nobody from your company will call me. How is it actually possible to get anything resolved then?

  • In2townmagazine In2town Lifestyle Magazine (@In2townmagazine) reported

    Thank you for all the complaints about @virginmedia we will be following them up. If you think virgin is the only service out there then please check other better services. Virgin are expensive and their customer service is one of the worst

  • srk_xxx 🌹 (@srk_xxx) reported

    @virginmedia Your service status page is showing 4G in my area with no issues but I’ve been without service for over an hour now

  • Si_Hickster Si (@Si_Hickster) reported

    @virginmedia Its underhand how difficult you make it to even workout which option takes you to the disconnection team. Never known anything like this.

  • j3nnag Jenna G (@j3nnag) reported

    @virginmedia Cause that would be the logical solution when my complaint is about a broken hub which is preventing me having broadband.

  • exeus Andy Brick (@exeus) reported

    @virginmedia still down in AL7 but according to your system “no broadband issues”. I beg to differ.

  • MetinHuseyin Metin Hüseyin 🦋 (@MetinHuseyin) reported

    @virginmedia Logging into my account was where this trek started. There is an outage on the Service Status finally. There was not one there for the first two days of dead landline. Someone - not a bot - finally got in touch with me to tell me the outage will be repaired by 6pm today.

  • exeus Andy Brick (@exeus) reported

    @virginmedia And we are down again.

  • j3nnag Jenna G (@j3nnag) reported

    @virginmedia I also love the fact that I have no broadband and you’re telling me to log into something online to fix it. THANK THE LORD for my @ThreeUK mobile phone, else non of the customer service options your bots keep suggesting would be accessible

  • JohnSpencerTV John Spencer (@JohnSpencerTV) reported

    Worst thing about virginmedia IS there Leave dept. They're like 90s curry's salesmen, barrow boys. They're all about the verbal, haggle, confrontation. But that is alien to UK life. We don't go in shops and haggle the price of everything. The Retention dept ARE the disincentive.
