Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 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

John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported 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?!!
-
Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia I’m trying to resolve an issue with your collections team regarding an incorrect default and because I no longer bank with the same account and do not have those details, they won’t talk to me, yet they are happy to just take money off me without telling me why. It’s disgusting
-
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.

Adam Hutt 🏴 (@SBOmad) reported from Swinton, England@virginmedia Broadband went back down for me around 16:30 and no internet etc and like others your website is still failing
-
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.
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Yes it’s signal and tried o2 got nowhere xx thanks for the reply
-
Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

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
-
Andrew English (@andy_english) reported from Dewsbury, England@LordTets @virginmedia Go to Ofcom... you have clearly given them ample time on numerous occasions to resolve your complaint. Life is too short to spend your time waiting for promised calls and web chats... let the ombudsman deal with them.

🕹️ EᑎGᗩGEᔕᗷᖇᗩIᑎ 🎮 (@EngagesBrain) reported@RobRollin2 @virginmedia Virgin Media's routers are garbage. As a result I've have only ever run mine in modem-only mode and provide my own wi-fi for my home. Works flawlessly.

Tony Dabell (@TonyDabell) reported@mark_wootten I'll see your sky TV and raise you my @virginmedia they're by far the worst 😡

RetroGamerX (@RetroGamer90) reported@Stephencheatley @virginmedia We had the full VM package quite a few years back but always had issues with their tv service. We ended up going with Sky and havent had any problems since then. We kept the broadband with Virgin because we get 1GB for £38 month with Netflix included. Shop around mate 👍

786 (@TS7319) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Virgin Media couldnt fix my internet broadband after 3 engineer visit and they broke my wardrobe and i switched to EE which is better
-
Ben Leo (@Benleo) reportedI have released all audio tapes of my many calls since April 30 and will be collating them for the nation to see how @virginmedia treat their customers and breach consumer law.
-
Anumcara (@Anumcaras) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Similar happened to me and again the call centre pushing am unnecessary sale and left me with no internet for weeks. Falsely claiming I needed new equipment but didn’t book an engineer It’s not the same company these days. Issues started September and this Friday engineer will finally arrive. I had to go back to sky in the meantime and move the virgin account to an other address because they would not cancel and kept ending calls. I would not recommend them. Also they have had issues nationwide with internet past two weeks impossible to work from home or study. Will they reimburse those customers?
