  @virginmedia somethings never change, £21 price increase can’t get you good customer service. Complaint logged for the second time, will I get response this time? 🤔

  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 24 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

  Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported 26 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 27 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 28 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

  @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 32 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia @virginmedia @O2 if you're going to sell merged packages to your customers then you really need to improve your joint customer service.. just batting me back to the other without an answer is simply unacceptable

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 33 minutes ago 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.

  @virginmedia hello, my grandmother is having issues with her TiVo Box, she's checked the cables and I've been online to check for service outage, and there's isn't any reported Can you help?

  John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

• 
  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 38 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

  Rebecca (@Bexwa) reported 44 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia The TV that it glitches on cant reach the box to get it wired in (but its only 10 ft away) I can't hard wire my laptop in. It goes off all the time! And then keep texting me saying you are coming for the WiFi pod after speaking with customer service. Im paying a fortune for this

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 45 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!

  Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported 50 minutes ago 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.

  Hi @virginmedia How do I stop receiving calls from your marketing department? I must be getting at least one weekly, tell them to stop & block the number, yet they keep coming. Can you help please? 🙏

  Abbie (@abz_06) reported 5 minutes ago

  @virginmedia you have left my 71 year old mother without internet and TV since 18th July due to a “problem in the area” and now you’re saying it won’t be fixed until 31st July? Two whole weeks you’ve left an elderly person completely isolated with no form of entertainment.

  @thenorth4theeu @virginmedia Who id you change to? I have had enough of Virgin. My internet works but the landline has not worked for months. It is impossible to get help from them.

  lyndsey buchanan (@lyndzb1990) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why is it so difficult to speak to customer service? Chat isn’t replaying and I’ve been hung up on and ignored twice. I have a complaint but I suppose if you ignore me you don’t have to deal with it 👌
