    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.

  • ArmitageJohn
    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?!!

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

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

  • lettielou05
    lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

  • rwgladwin

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

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

    @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

  • pidgpie
    Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

  • HarlamTK
    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

  • John_murphy1
    John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 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.

  • SiDay14
    Simon Day (@SiDay14) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Did you even read the thread?? Now you want me to complain about an issue I’ve complained about several times already? The whole point is your pathetic response to issues!

  • SamWalker03
    Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

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

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

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

    @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  • Sheffield_Boy
    Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

  • lettielou05
    lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia very unhappy failed install and had no service since Saturday and I'm within my 14 days to cancel yet your staff don't understand this and want to charge me for a fault call !! When do you become so crap !!!

  • goonie2008
    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.

  • rywilnot
    Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  • TWO_Librans
    Phil J (@TWO_Librans) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Just want to lower my bill or cancel

  • andyksheffield
    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_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!

    @virginmedia I have already done that multiple times and there is an issue in my area, which was confirmed by customer services, but taking 10 days to rectify it is not acceptable

  • benalblogger
    Lynne Marshall (@benalblogger) reported

    @virginmedia no internet for 2 days. Virgin call handler tells me she will make appointment for tomorrow afternoon. Nothing showing on my app. She says nothing wrong with Virgin internet. System shows problem. No appointment showing on my app. Cancelling priority

    @virginmedia First thing this morning you said the outage in my area (22) would continue for another week,then another message saying it would be fixed today, and now a message saying it'll be a week again. Is there a playbook you guys are using to wind up its customers?

    @virginmedia @sharonmariahall Yes excellent internet speeds & the only provider you can put the router into modem mode & add your own kit. 9 times out of 10 any WiFi issues are down to devices or where you have the router not the service. If you have a WiFi pod ensure you set up WiFi back haul.

  • JohnnyRep74
    Rep74NL (@JohnnyRep74) reported

    @virginmedia your Webchat is awful , got an email regarding upgrading to 360 . Directed to webchat , 35 minutes later still trying to sort out what is an easy request . Your agent takes 10 minutes between each response to answer . I’m not bothering now

  • philbreadin
    Phil (@philbreadin) reported

    @virginmedia how come my bill has jumped from £55 to £72 mid contract? I understand it's April and a small price increase is expected but £17 is taking the mick. With the issues I've had lately @skytv is looking more tempting.
