  Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported 4 minutes ago from Rotherham, England

  @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

•

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

  @virginmedia what’s going on with internet service in HD8 area ? I don’t want to have to wait 23 hours before calling a technician as advised by your service page

• 
  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 16 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

  @virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 16 minutes ago 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

  @virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!

• 
  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 22 minutes ago from Brinsworth, England

  @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

• 
  Andrew English (@andy_english) reported 28 minutes ago 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.

  Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported 31 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

• 
  John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported 34 minutes ago 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?!!

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 35 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 42 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

• 
  GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported 49 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.

• 
  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 49 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? 🤔

  @virginmedia why is your broadband so bad? World cup games and im having a nightmare watching them with the broadband drop outs!

• 
  Conor 🇮🇪 (@WFCConor) reported 7 minutes ago

  Internets down all day, plugged the router out 5 times and it still isn’t working, usual service for @virginmedia 🫣

• 
  Charmaine Rome (@eightieschick72) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Sorted out. But it would have been nice if your customer service had checked outages first before spending an hour taking me through things that clearly wouldn’t have worked because an engineer had chopped through a live “in the area” and the whole area was down!

• 
  JS (@SweeneyJoanne) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I cannot tell you how horrendous my experience has been. 4 weeks later, no install, a broken path and I have no broadband! You didn’t show up again!!!! No communication either.

• 
  Keith (@Keith_Bredrin) reported 16 minutes ago

  @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sky don't answer the phone when you want to cancel. Their sales team claim they can't put you through either. Cretins.

• 
  Rosie (@RosieLastOf6) reported 22 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I’ve had to get my neighbour in to check everything for me, I have mobility issues. Seems to be ok now.

• 
  Gothguy (@GothGuyGamer) reported 23 minutes ago

  @MartinSLewis Virgin media top tip: If you're close to the end of contract, don't renew. Give them your 30 days notice, When 30 days has elapsed, apply as a new customer with a new email. They won't give you any better deals unless you're a "new" customer

  John merry (@Johnmerry85) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Intermittent signal in your area is that the reason my Internet has been on and off since 3pm and speed is terrible?

• 
  Jac Mac (@Stovies6) reported 26 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Trying to cancel my brother's phone and TV as he in hospital and will not be returning home. He is 85 and has no idea of his PASSWORD which is requested by every avenue I have tried. Any chance you can help?
