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

  Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported 8 minutes ago from Knottingley, England

  I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

  @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  @virginmedia 7 days and still no @O2 resolution

• 
  Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported 15 minutes ago from Rotherham, England

  @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

• 
  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 15 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 18 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I do need assistance over why the 4G backup didn't kick in when I had an outage last week but I've raised that with you already, I hope

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 24 minutes ago 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!

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 26 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 32 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia I can’t help with that. Good luck.

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 33 minutes ago 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

• 
  Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported 35 minutes ago from Darton, England

  @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

• 
  Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Yes both mum n dad are virgin and we’re still getting no signal

• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 42 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

• 
  Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported 43 minutes ago from Normanton, England

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

• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 46 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 55 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 58 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

  Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported 60 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Anyone else’s @virginmedia WiFi down ?Mines been down nearly 24 hrs 🥲

  Sean Pearson (@soapyrct) reported 4 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @customerchamp1 It is literally the level of service you have provided for many years.

• 
  Lynne (@lynne_thomson2) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I have done all that earlier today and keep checking and still states no known issue. However was advised through chat online with a staff member there was an issue in my area with hope of it being back up within 24 hours! Everyone is getting same messge when checking online!

• 
  Yasmin alibhai-brown (@y_alibhai) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia So @virginmedia what are you doing about this problem? And failure on the part of your company?

• 
  Gloucester Glass (@gloucesterglass) reported 14 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Yes, it said issues with broadband and tv, but it’s been 3 consecutive days now. Plus like I said I can’t get mobile signal and I don’t live in the middle of nowhere so dependent on wifi calls unfortunately.

• 
  Julybird (@Julybird) reported 15 minutes ago

  @y_alibhai @virginmedia Change your internet provider. Or ring their cancellation number and they'll likely push heaven and earth to help you then. If they don't, definitely change. I was with them years ago, absolute rubbish of a service.

• 
  jason (@Jason29wctb) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia All they say is need a engineer and I tell them no but send them any way knowing they can't fix it ,if I cancel £1600 ,even tho it's illegal to hold me I a contract with a service that's not fit for purpose

• 
  STEPHEN (@stevied151181) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I've just had a lovely chat with Kameer to renew my contract. He was polite, friendly and helpful. Please make sure he's praised for his customer service. 5🌟

• 
  Gaz (@yerwhit) reported 23 minutes ago

  @EpicLastSong @virginmedia My virgin Internet signal dropped out all the time, after being told to restart several times, I bought a tp-link router and used the virgin one as a modem, no problem after that.

  🐺 (@stefan655) reported 24 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I've just had one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever encountered over the phone. The representative I spoke to today was incredibly rude, dismissive, and unhelpful throughout the call!
