  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are we going to finally have some functional WiFi service from yourself? 3/4 days constant issues... pathetic

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

  • millersfm2011 Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia Well this is a cracking start. A call back tomorrow rescues the situation. Been a virgin customer since broadband came along. Fingers crossed.

  • PippaKOldfield Pippa Oldfield (@PippaKOldfield) reported from Wakefield, England

    @AssistanceVm @TranslatioNinja @virginmedia That’s a bit of a salty reply. I think your customer was referring to various barriers in the way of cancelling her contract, not the difficulty involved in selecting call options. She’s still been unable to cancel and is being pressured her to keep her contract.

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia No it's always slow lately

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Cos I've been a customer for well over a decade and I'm sick of seeing new customers get given the moon on a stick to join. I reckon your sales team would let a new customer have a night with their wives to sign them up. But loyal customers get nothing.

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Only have broadband but it causes streaming issues. Service been terribly disrupted now for a couple of months.

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    Dealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • Joannemarygriff Joannemarygriffin (@Joannemarygriff) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia On demand still not working and every time I sign in it’s been moved on three days for repair in my area. This has been ongoing for two weeks now which I find unacceptable especially when all bills have just gone up in price.

  • millersfm2011 Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

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

    @mouthwaite @virginmedia I had awful internet for years with them best thing I ever did was change to sky and not only do I get more for my money it’s cheaper than what I was paying roughly three years ago xxxx

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I'm moving to sky, saving a tenner a month and adding sports and movies. I might be back in 18 months. Seems like hopping between providers is the only way to get a decent deal. It's perverse logic. Surely cheaper to retain a customer than gain one? But no, so I'm off.

  • ianpnaylor Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.

  • sihackett86 simon (@sihackett86) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi recieved an email regarding an upgrade on WiFi network for hub 3 can you tell me what has been upgraded so I am able to alter my devices accordingly please

  • bally79 Suzy Swift (@bally79) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Can’t get through to customer services need an engineer to come to mums as unable to set up broadband and phone line! And why you sent out a tv box when she isn’t having virgin tv is puzzling?!

  • Helen_Claire71 Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    Recently renegotiated my contract with @virginmedia just received notification that they are billing me for 50% more than was agreed. Called them and they cannot explain why, and have registered my complaint and someone will call me at some point in the next 48 hours. Scandalous

  • martynbolt Martyn Bolt (@martynbolt) reported from Mirfield, England

    Terrible customer service by @virginmedia cancelled 0800 installation in Dewsbury today at 2100 last night Strangely blaming @KirkleesCouncil

  • dcb72 Damien. (@dcb72) reported

    am not best pleased with @virginmedia in the uk. we told them my mum had passed and needed to pass the account as it was to my dad. they then told us this was possible but there would be a larger bill to cover the use of service from mam to dad. this isn't acceptable

  • simplyure Urenna (@simplyure) reported

    It has truly been a very frustrating 5 hours on the phone with @virginmedia customer service and I'm so glad I am cancelling this account. Good riddance.

  • LawTRICIA Tricia 💙 (@LawTRICIA) reported

    @virginmedia I got a new hub a month ago and an ‘upgraded’ speed! Im paying for a non existent service and now tied in again.

  • ChrisLoco_ Chris Loco (@ChrisLoco_) reported

    @virginmedia Ok trying now, will come back to you in half an hour. I’ve thought the issue has been the hub for a while, I’ve offered to even buy a Hub 4 from your customer services but it seems like no one will let me lol

  • leegarryallen LAllen (@leegarryallen) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, area outage again! Sunday - Thursday last week and now Tuesday and we're off again. Compensation kicks in after 48 hours yet I'm now in day 6 of service loss in 10 days. It's just not on.

  • ChrisLoco_ Chris Loco (@ChrisLoco_) reported

    @virginmedia Hey. It feels very warm yes. It was offline for a while last week while I was away as our Ring devices were offline. This is after months of intermittent service and back & forth

  • Alexand95906231 Alex S (@Alexand95906231) reported

    @virginmedia , what a joke, 3 hours and no response from your online support to do a simple house move application.(this is the 2nd attempt after the failure to process it last week) Maybe should just switch ISP to @SkyMediaUK

  • HowcroftKay Kay Howcroft (@HowcroftKay) reported

    @virginmedia When will this outage be fixed

  • zemuogele83 Giedre Clarke (@zemuogele83) reported

    @virginmedia Numerous times. Last time few days ago. You are saying no issues with signal coming to router. But WiFi keeps dropping out numerous times a day. You said that you can't guarantee WiFi signal strength due to walls etc. However my router is right next to me..

  • kitchentowel Ben (@kitchentowel) reported

    @virginmedia I've spent several days trying to tell you I'm moving. Called, tried on website, WhatsApp. I've cancelled my direct debit and you're not getting another penny out of me as I have no time to continue to try to get you to move or cancel my services. Had enough.
