-
Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.
-
Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

-
John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia I’ve had that email.

Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

-
James (@jamestaylor1) reported@KenWhittall68 @virginmedia It was the same on sky. Not down to Virgin
-
Openreach (@WeAreOpenreach) reported@NeilJac74898351 @virginmedia Hi Neil, Virgin install and use their own network separate to the Openreach network, so any information on our website about services you can order wouldn't apply to any Virgin products and vice versa, I'm afraid. If you wish to order FTTP, you'd need to order through a (1/2)
-
m (@RamsbottomMark) reported@cxdi55 @skytv @SkyHelpTeam got the same with virgin media ..needs a regulation like with car insurance where they have to offer you the same deal as a new customer
-
Coxy 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻 (@StephenPie) reported@VeronParsons @virginmedia I am still with them, you have to praise them for having the worst call centre in a world full of awful ones, takes some doing
-
Terry Cooke 🇺🇦🇬🇧🇮🇱 (@tezcooke) reported@virginmedia your routers really are ****!!! I’m sat in garden, in direct line of maybe 8 metres from router and can’t get wifi signal. If only you valued quality of service !
-
Emma Thompson (@emmathompy) reported@virginmedia hi - I've done a few speed tests now that show I've got poor connection below what's expected (below 30mb) in my house but I seem to just go round in circles in my account to request a free pod and can't actually do it anywhere. Can you help please?
-
Nicky P. Smalley (@Nicky_P_Smalley) reported@virginmedia I haven’t tried ringing, as I’m more likely to get through to Elvis on a ouija board then you. For a month our top package internet keeps failing, you say you fix it & a week later it dies. Pull your finger out & sort compo for every customer in S63 7NR area.
-
Nicky P. Smalley (@Nicky_P_Smalley) reported@virginmedia All I need you to do is fix the internet in this postcode and keep it fixed. Not difficult.
-
Rationalist44 (@rationalist44) reported@andyburnham You might like to add VIRGINMEDIA to your list of organisations that do everything they can to prevent customers ending contracts. They are THE WORST.
-
Keiran Griffiths (@Keiran_Mark) reported@SamReesO @StephenP311275 @virginmedia Sky Stream (and glass) is on-demand service, so if you miss something, you can search for it and watch it, so no need to record it.
