  • kaw7676 Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported from Normanton, England

    @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  • John_murphy1 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.

  • John_murphy1 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!

  • steeleygash Gary Steele (@steeleygash) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia why is the red button on sky sports football not working no option to watch the live games ?? Poor service

  • AndyM50760310 Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia That is really poor. It should be for Virgin to sort not the public. I spent an hour on the phone on Thursday speaking to a next to useless overseas call centre.

  • EJJFoster Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia hi is there an issue in wakefield with the broadband? It has been off all afternoon. Constantly on the blink!!

  • chirpyfrances Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported from Wakefield, England

    Been through 16 mths of lockdown, 3 working from home & hardly a glitch on the broadband. Last 8wks its gone down for several minutes a day between 10am and 1pm. Only on weekdays & its supposed to be a problem with our hub, really? An engineer could find it @virginmedia #shoddy

  • EJJFoster Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

  • kgannon1 Kevin Gannon (@kgannon1) reported

    @virginmedia I really need to sort this issue and I can't call your phonelline, no mobile signal here. Can you please respond, please with a cherry on top?

  • brettlempereur Brett Lempereur (@brettlempereur) reported

    Hey @virginmedia, any updates on the network outage affecting W4 today? We’ve been offline since 9:40am and your status page is unreliable at best.

  • DouglasFreshman easylife (@DouglasFreshman) reported

    @virginmedia @Tokolosh63 Absolute garbage I've been on hold / going round in circles all day .

  • p_louisa Puichi (@p_louisa) reported

    @MarkWalker59 @virginmedia Have you spoken to someone in the retention team? I spoke to 2 different people in the space of an hour and one offered me more than what I needed and told me he couldn't cancel my contract and couldn't transfer to someone who can. The second person was much more helpful...

  • mattz0rpwnz Matthew Scully (@mattz0rpwnz) reported

    @virginmedia Tho Idont want to downgrade, I want you to accept there is an obvious issue.. but you won't, so no point...

  • ShotsByJai Shots by Jai (@ShotsByJai) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah you shouldn’t have to but the alternative is to call your customer services number and wait for hours before someone helps you. Seriously what’s the matter with you people?

  • princessytamtam Tambo The Destroyer ADHD (@princessytamtam) reported

    @virginmedia I've looked through your web site and tried the chat service but was left for nearly 3 hours without assistance

  • drrcgallagher Ronan Gallagher (@drrcgallagher) reported

    @virginmedia Still no internet hours later. Work day completely disrupted. The service checker earlier said that there were some "intermittent signal issues" and a few subsequent visits confirms there is still an issue with the connection. Can you please check the status in Edinburgh EH10?

  • Stevena44372872 Steven angel (@Stevena44372872) reported

    Virgin Media man, got to be one of the worst companies in the UK. How can they justify banging thier prices up MID CONTRACT EVERY single year? Absolute crooks. There's got to be a cheaper, more respectful company I can move to surely? Any suggestions would be appreciated?

  • Rachel_At_RFW Raspberry_F_Windows (@Rachel_At_RFW) reported

    No on demand or catch up for 2 days, now on day 3 and have no TV at all @virginmedia apparently we have an issue in our area but the time it will be fixed by has changed for the last 3 days. No on demand I can cope but no TV at all, that's a bit much.
