  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 7 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 14 minutes ago 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

  Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported 22 minutes ago from Rotherham, England

  @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

  @virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

  I’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia

  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 29 minutes ago from Wombwell, England

  @virginmedia I tried that and that’s how I got stuck in this situation. Is there a number I can call that is DIRECT for a complaint?

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 33 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

  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 36 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

  Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported 36 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

  Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported 43 minutes ago from Dewsbury, England

  @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  Gary Steele (@steeleygash) reported 44 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia why is the red button on sky sports football not working no option to watch the live games ?? Poor service

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 47 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

  Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported 48 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia the cheek or virgin media staff complain about virgin router dropping out constantly call raise a complaint and tell them router is disconnected from network and request a hub 4 as been told this is what’s needed I get told I have to upgrade to 1 gig for new router

• 
  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 50 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.

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 50 minutes ago 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

• 
  Andrew Poppleton 💙 (@popsgolf) reported 53 minutes ago from Wentworth, England

  @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

  @DysphasiaPV @virginmedia Product is good but customer service terrible

• 
  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 58 minutes ago from Barnsley, England

  @virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

  @virginmedia my WiFi is down right nor sure why

• 
  BZSM1TH (@BazingaSmth) reported 7 minutes ago

  @virginmedia So ALL servicea are currently down in CT17 (TV, Fiber , and phone) They have been down since 1500hrs on July 13th. Not expected back up and running until 1300hrs on 14th July. This is not acceptable. You really are totally inept

• 
  Enzo Ferro (@EnzoFerro2023) reported 10 minutes ago

  @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Very sorry for your loss. I left virgin media a few years back after very poor service and I am hearing lots of examples recently of why I will never return.

• 
  Sinbinnin (@sinbinnin) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia We have had no TV in L22 since Saturday 11th July, outage checker has shown fix time this afternoon - just received a text to say engineer on the way, fix time now tomorrow. This is a bit more than rubbish, how do I claim compensation? (I thought it was automatic)

• 
  RedditchVilla (@K6HolteEnd) reported 10 minutes ago

  @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Virginmedia were horrible to us. My mother had a stroke and had severe dementia. we tried to cancel her broadband and just keep the tv as she couldn't use a computer any more. They kept asking to speak to her and got angry when she couldn't remember her password. Utter scum.

• 
  Michael Crick (@MichaelLCrick) reported 14 minutes ago

  @MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK As I have said here before, Virgin Media treat customers with total contempt. The worst type of British capitalism. Branson must be so ashamed.

• 
  UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported 14 minutes ago

  Virgin Media simply do not seem to grasp customer service, I really fear the damage the merger with O2 will do to the service there. Penny pinching over a bereavement is proof of a fundamentally mismanaged customer service.

• 
  CFC._AKHI😴 (@Yolo123Rana) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Checked everything still not working
