  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Nothing has happened today, I'm just commenting on your offer to give all broadband customers free mobile 4g when your broadband goes down. Whenever my broadband had gone down, so has my cellular connection also.

  • AnthonyyBurke Anthony (@AnthonyyBurke) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia yo, anyway to cancel the TV part of my package, without having to ring, being on hold for ages, yawn.

  • Claredo91857219 Clare doyle (@Claredo91857219) reported from Barnsley, England

    @Alroblade @virginmedia Who you gone to. I need to kick them into touch. Crap service and a rip off price that gets money expensive each year x

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 !

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

    @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.

  • w47carr Mrs c (@w47carr) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia are you aving problems with ITV channel mines gone off in the s70 area

  • pipathon Richard Milnes (@pipathon) reported from Ossett, England

    Decided to leave @virginmedia today after ringing them up. Great service no reason to leave other than I need to be a “new customer” to access the best deals. My monthly bill more than doubled. Hello @NOWTV or @SkyUK I think.....

  • nathandainty Nathan Dainty (@nathandainty) reported from Sheffield, England

    @sky @virginmedia hey @SkyUK You should tell your customer service: “Online, mail and telephone order customers have the right to cancel their order for a limited time even if the goods aren’t faulty. Sales of this kind are known as ‘distance selling’…

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

    @virginmedia The service seems to have been interrupted again. Been fine all week.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @TrainedPengling @virginmedia The problem I have with this, is that whenever their broadband has gone down, so had my mobile with them at same time. Like when it all went down nationwide earlier this month. Having free 4g when you actually can't connect is kinda pointless lol

    @virginmedia who I @ for tech support?

  • Wee_Linz_ 👸🏻 Queen Wee Linz 👸🏻 (@Wee_Linz_) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as a family, all 4 of us are having problems with the mobile network. This has been ongoing for a few weeks and despite assurances that the problem is being fixed, it clearly isn't. This is frustrating and we are not getting the service we're paying for.

  • nyreehood Nyree Trimbel (@nyreehood) reported

    @virginmedia I've waited in all afternoon with a baby and toddler (imagine how fun that is) for our engineer visit which was supposed to be between 12-4 no one has turned up. Can you help asap please? We have no internet and need to work

  • smudge258 gordon smith (@smudge258) reported

    @virginmedia They are sending me a new box out, as the other one is broken

  • petertrimbel petertrimbel (@petertrimbel) reported

    Hi @virginmedia we have no internet and the engineer hasn't turned up. Our time slot was 12-4 today. Please help urgently as we need to be up and running for working from home tomorrow.

  • kellytayloruk Kelly Burgess Taylor (@kellytayloruk) reported

    Appalling customer service from @virginmedia for my father. His numbers have disappeared from his account and he cannot re-add them. Trying to find an email address so he can sort it out (and likely get the PAC code at this point) but no email contacts on their website.

  • andrewprayle Andrew Prayle (@andrewprayle) reported

    @virginmedia Seems to still be a problem. But only this website. Everything else works fine. Weird.

  • DR_ADH Adam Hudson (@DR_ADH) reported

    @virginmedia OK thanks. They have had issues with the service and are fed up and want to leave, but my dad has forgotten his 'security question' and says he thus gets blocked on the phone. Note its not his online password. Can you advise? thanks

  • fableandfont Lynda Hewitt (@fableandfont) reported

    @virginmedia 7mths ago I bought a broadband and SIM package deal, but the SIM never arrived. I have rung customer service so many times, yet no one has sorted this. I am getting billed for a SIM I don’t have and your customer service is a farce!!!!!! Please advice on WHO CAN HELP

  • JohnHutchinson John (@JohnHutchinson) reported

    @virginmedia Too much to tweet I’m afraid... constant issues for a month since house move. I have a complaint ref now, but just need to be contacted about this, despite endless “texts” to a number that never contacts back. This matter will NOT be resolved within 28 days it seems...
