  • kaw7676 Karen Walsh (@kaw7676) reported from Normanton, England

    @virginmedia it’s impossible to contact them with a complaint if you aren’t a customer.

  • GaryFretwell1 Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

  • 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!

  • EJJFoster Ed Foster (@EJJFoster) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried the status but its saying the service is fine. Yet all the people on out estate are complaining they cannot get onto Virgin internet. We cannot book an engineer as isolating. Why is it constantly broken or speeds so slow?

  • 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?

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

  • giinagii GiinaGii 🐱 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England

  • chirpyfrances Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported from Wakefield, England

    Been through 16 mths of lockdown, 3 working from home & hardly a glitch on the broadband. Last 8wks its gone down for several minutes a day between 10am and 1pm. Only on weekdays & its supposed to be a problem with our hub, really? An engineer could find it @virginmedia #shoddy

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

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

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

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

  • wilcock_steve 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿steve wilcock 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@wilcock_steve) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia is the email down again??

  • John_murphy1 John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 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.

  • AndyM50760310 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.

  • victimsvoice73 Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England

    Anyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls

  • Tr33fi77y Sean Widdowson (@Tr33fi77y) reported

    @virginmedia As I say please read my tweets it was a planned outage as informed by your engineer. So you are just proving my point. And to be clear then you are not willing to get anyone to talk to me or anyone of the other 500 houses in our estate and instead want to push us through….

  • qwerfyyyy Qirraaath (@qwerfyyyy) reported

    @virginmedia Hi we’ve done this multiple times and have even called in but the issue is never resolved, we even have a WiFi extender in the house which also hasn’t helped.

  • Mr_B_solihull ChrisB (@Mr_B_solihull) reported

    @virginmedia internet down AGAIN! Can I speak to an actual person please?

  • boff64 Stephen Bough (@boff64) reported

    @virginmedia Well done Virgin, rung again on 150. When we gave our details we were told an engineer has been booked, but call centre could not tell us when or where the engineer was coming as they said they had no record. Absolutely appaling. Ongoing rubbish customer service

  • ThaBieberCrew sunset (@ThaBieberCrew) reported

    Hi again. @virginmedia If I cancel my current phone contract & return back to you. Can I still be able to purchase a new phone from your site?

  • variationhitter VARIATIONHITTER (@variationhitter) reported

    @crazyh0rse1234 No jokes lol and there’s no better option a avail. @SkyUK #skybroadband I’m switching to my new friends @virginmedia anyway, sky have rude people working there and don’t even offer a good service lol what a joke

  • LunchboxLogicYT LunchboxLogic (@LunchboxLogicYT) reported

    What really is the point in Virgin Media having wireless technology in their routers if their wireless is no better than trying to connect to it from over the road? I’m literally one floor up and there’s no devices in between and I’m getting no more than 5 down and 5 up. Scammers

  • TheGunner_J Jordan (@TheGunner_J) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I tried contacting the virgin support team on the website but I've been waiting for over 2 hours and no one has gotten back to me, so I said I'll message here instead but I'm wondering if it would be possible to enable port forwarding on my HUB 4 router?

  • timmym84 Timmy! (@timmym84) reported

    @virginmedia how come there is yet another 'planned outage' happening that no one has been informed of?! The only reason we know it's planned as someone found one of your engineers and they said it was an upgrade. Its almost a monthly basis now. Getting quite tiresome

  • Shreena_88 S_88 (@Shreena_88) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on why is media and internet down ???
