• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 7 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 10 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

  @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

  Jules Tee (@xjuewx) reported 19 minutes ago 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 !!!!

  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 19 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Useless you haven't addressed my points. I will go directly to the managing director Lutz Schueler. Really disappointed and I woukd have expected better considering I have been a loyal customer.

  @virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 30 minutes ago 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

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 33 minutes ago from Heckmondwike, England

  @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? 🤔

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 33 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.

• 
  Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported 39 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

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

• 
  Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported 43 minutes ago from Rotherham, England

  Virginmedia Rotherham some with no internet and no TV known issues in the area 6pm fix time

• 
  Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported 44 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Coincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.

• 
  The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported 48 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

  lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported 49 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

• 
  Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported 55 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 57 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

• 
  Alison Pearson (@pearson_alison) reported 58 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

• 
  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 59 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

  Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported 7 minutes ago

  Day 22 without @virginmedia broadband, with still no explanation of why it’s taking so long to fix the outage in my area. It’s also the 4th date they’ve said it will be fixed by this pm. On the other 3 I’ve had a lunchtime message to say it will be 1 more week. Let’s see today..

• 
  Rob Heneghan (@robheneghan) reported 8 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @CliveR39 How is this even close to being an acceptable response @virginmedia. Mine doesn’t work either. And watching sky sports doesn’t help when what I want to watch is on the red button. 🤠🤠🤠🤠

  ElaineGolding (@Elainebks) reported 12 minutes ago

  @RJAldous1 @virginmedia Oh dear you got the scammers. Their help dept is shown on the profile

• 
  Craig Sutton (@CraigSu66242369) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia @alexand979677 Customers shouldn't have to compromise. We have all paid for a service which we are currently not getting. It's a disgrace really considering the cost. Maybe time for a change.

• 
  Mo (@Notts52) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia DM about what? From my post you have my details, the situation that repeats and repeats and repeats. None of this happened until VM decided that you would make changes for better security by having the VMO2 p'word. Is this problem just us or are others affected? #virginmedia #O2

• 
  Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reported 17 minutes ago

  So @virginmedia after 15 years as a customer for broadband don’t deem you worthy of a recordable 360 box if you want to use them as a sole provider instead of Sky and only offer a streaming box that won’t work if your internet goes down. #AwfulCustomerService #Sky

• 
  CliveR (@CliveR39) reported 18 minutes ago

  As a @virginmedia customer for a decade or so, VERY disappointing to find a problem with @SkySports Sky + red button service, taking some TEN DAYS and still not fixed @Ofcom

  david holden (@dhol_den) reported 21 minutes ago

  @virginmedia service down again

• 
  johnhughes (@JFab208) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’m not interested in using an app my contract is for tv service so get it sorted

  Andy Wright (@ncfcandywright) reported 23 minutes ago

  @MickeyDN7 @virginmedia @SkySports Sky customer having the same issue, so I'd say the problem is on Sky's side not Virgins
