    @virginmedia No it's always slow lately

  • 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

  • statto95 David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    And the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

  • 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

  • Amy_1867 Amy 🦉 (@Amy_1867) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia whenever I’m on zoom upstairs and away from my route my wifi always seems to drop out. It’s always says my internet connection is unstable. I’ve restarted router etc is there anything else I can do to boost it

  • 28gem Gem 💎 (@28gem) reported from Wakefield, England

    I have been trying since the 19th February to cancel my @virginmedia services. I can’t get through on the phone... ever! I’ve sent numerous messages which haven’t had any response.

  • 0ssettTerrier Paul (the original Ossett Terrier 🐶) (@0ssettTerrier) reported from Ossett, England

    @carltonnash @virginmedia Good luck! Unless they're trying to retain your business, they're as bad as @sky

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 ****.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • statto95 David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I pay £50 a month for my WiFi and Internet, any particular reason it keeps going down.....??

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

    @virginmedia le11 2hq area broadband not working. Anything happening to the system today?

  • DanSull92625028 Dan Sullivan (@DanSull92625028) reported

    @Virgin @virginmedia can you explain why every time I ring to cancel my contract I get hung up on after 15mins on hold and why I have spent 3 days on Web chat waiting for a person?

  • carolwilliamson Carol Williamson (@carolwilliamson) reported

    @virginmedia Wished you’d sort mine out. 3 calls in a week and still getting ‘there’s a problem call us’ message! 😳

  • Lorrainelawrie1 Lorraine lawrie (@Lorrainelawrie1) reported

    @virginmedia still waiting to get through to customer relations since yesterday. Customer care is shocking

  • BoabieSinclair Ewan Cook (@BoabieSinclair) reported

    @virginmedia #betterconnected don’t make me laugh! I have been trying every day this week to contact Virgin Media to cancel my services. Every day the messaging service has been unavailable.

  • WowbaggerHT Peter Walker (@WowbaggerHT) reported

    When @Virginmedia help themselves, unauthorised, to more than £200 from my bank account and, despite my repeated protestations, keep it for months, is it theft or is it fraud?

  • rossgrosvenor Ross. (@rossgrosvenor) reported

    @virginmedia Hiya, Can someone get in touch with me re: price rises and wanting to either amend my service, or cancel please? cheers.

  • revdgarry Revd Garry Roberts (@revdgarry) reported

    @virginmedia Yep. that's what we are trying but there is no option to speak to anyone who can help

  • revdgarry Revd Garry Roberts (@revdgarry) reported

    @virginmedia Youre not trying to take it yet You are setting up the DD for our first 'double payment' before service start in 9 days time. At present our bank will refuse the DD as it is in the wrong name and we are worried that our current provider will have disconnected our services by then

  • RPrehn22 RPrehn22 (@RPrehn22) reported

    @virginmedia while your support is unresponsive, mind telling me why I'm still receiving bills after I've cancelled and switched to another provider? Direct debit is deleted so no worry on that part but not a good look on top of the bad service...
