-

-
Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 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.
-
Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, EnglandHere we go its worked for a week virginmedia internet down rebooted worked for 2 mins down again ill check my status later usually goes off then comes back on and works again S65 area
-
Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 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
-
Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia How do I open a complaint then, because I’m still stuck on the phone with her and she is refusing to let me make my complaint.
-
Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.
-
Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported from Dewsbury, England@virginmedia Help please. Tried to resolve wirh 3 members of your overseas Call Centre and was promised a call back. I can’t access my account.
-
Chirpy Frances (@chirpyfrances) reported from Wakefield, EnglandBeen 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
-
Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, EnglandSlow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer
-
Adam (@tevowl9) reported 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
-
GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported 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.
-
Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, EnglandWhat an absolute shower of shite service as usual from @virginmedia they literally couldn’t care any less
-
lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .
-
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.

Cookie (@chrissincl29564) reported@virginmedia @CliveR39 Everyone knows there is an issue don’t play dumb!
-
Gram (@Gram7070707070) reported@Carolestfc1 @virginmedia Worst company I have ever dealt with and it's not even close. They'll screw your credit rating by mistake and never, ever fix it. They'll hang up on you, the staff don't put notes on accounts and you have to tell the same story to 20 different disinterested call centre staff.
-
johan cruft (@rjbjmb) reported@virginmedia I don’t have sky sports as part of my package with you but have been able to watch it since Saturday. Is this part of the same issue?
-
John Miles (@WHUbluesman) reported@1RavC @virginmedia And their sky sports + choice is still not working. When will it be fixed.
-
Emily Ford (@T0350X) reported@virginmedia why is it so hard to cancel an account?!? I’m moving house and out of contract, you don’t service the new area. You have been changing me stupid money for internet for months and when I ring to cancel the account I get moved between multiple people!
