    @virginmedia were there issues in S9 around 1020 this morning?

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

    @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

  • xjuewx Jules Tee (@xjuewx) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia not good when my 82yr old mum was left with no phone service so no health emergency service and city wide alarm for the last 2 days.... not good enough !!!!

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

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

  • olibrown77 Oli B (@olibrown77) reported from Sheffield, England

    @pauldevine1986 @virginmedia We are still down in S7. Nearly 24 hours now. Saying 2pm is the updated fix time. But that keeps getting pushed back 🙄😡

  • pearson_alison Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why is the red button not working I've paid for this service

  • 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!!

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

    @virginmedia why am h getting the message that my cable is broken

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • diddles1970 Diane Caira (@diddles1970) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Do you have a business outage in S8? Can't get through to anyone. Wondering whether to send everyone home?

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

    Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

  • 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.

  • 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 Help please. Tried to resolve wirh 3 members of your overseas Call Centre and was promised a call back. I can’t access my account.

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 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

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

    @virginmedia I can’t sign in with the original details. The email is no longer mine.

  • giinagii GiinaGii 🐱 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

  • B6_Dave B6 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 (@B6_Dave) reported

    @virginmedia I have a issue with my mobile account. Can someone assist please?

  • Jacquieann37 Jacquie (@Jacquieann37) reported

    @virginmedia corporate, faceless and unbelievably poor service. Would love to speak to someone who doesn’t keep repeating sentences from a crib sheet. 4 days waiting in and over 200 minutes on the phone 😠😠😠 appalling

  • julianabanan Juli (@julianabanan) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to fix a wifi issue with your customer service team since October 10th and now they keep hanging up on me. They refuse to deliver on a service they told me they would. How do I get in contact apart from calling?

  • NatGrove69 Natalie Grove (@NatGrove69) reported

    @virginmedia @njay691 Why call me every day to offer early upgrade yet want me to pay off rest of contract. When I say you are harassing me, your staff hang up

  • kimturner70 Kimberley Turner (@kimturner70) reported

    @virginmedia I’m no expert but even I know you can’t extend a wifi signal via any piece of kit if the signal is failing to come into the router. So how do I speak to someone at a level above your Indian call centre who wants to defraud me of money I do not need to spend?

  • lfclee1985 Lee Harris (@lfclee1985) reported

    @JimBoardman @virginmedia What did you get in the end Jim? My contract has a few months left but seems likely I'll need to cancel. Already pay £96

  • iShieldsi Liam (@iShieldsi) reported

    @virginmedia OK, and not to come across rude, but If numerous others have posted and not got replies/issues resolved I fail to see how posting myself will benefit the situation in anyway, this is 4 days of the same problem now

  • kimturner70 Kimberley Turner (@kimturner70) reported

    @virginmedia The agent said she couldn’t raise a complaint as her system wouldn’t let her bypass selling her equipment I don’t need. This is fraudulent activity by @virginmedia She point blank refused to escalate my call. Totally unacceptable

  • Edge_Creator Edge-Creator (@Edge_Creator) reported

    @virginmedia @Virgin @virginhelp surely one of these will be able to resolve this problem?

  • GarethThwaite Gareth Thwaite (@GarethThwaite) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia can you please just admit you value new customers over 20yrs plus ones? @BT want to help a family out?
