  Andy M (@AndyM50760310) reported 40 seconds ago 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.

  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 4 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

• 
  Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported 10 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?

  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 12 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.

  Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported 13 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia what's the issue with answering a call? Line went dead, my mum can't receive incoming texts and is due an upgrade. Your customer service is terrible, God only knows what will happen when I call for TV

• 
  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 13 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  @virginmedia I've emailed MD and they called me within the hour and sorted my issue out within 10 minutes. You should be ashamed of yourselves

• 
  anne l (@annie7hudds) reported 16 minutes ago from Fenay Bridge, England

  @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

• 
  Adam (@tevowl9) reported 20 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

• 
  GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported 25 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.

  Sky sports red button not working with @virginmedia there’s a shock

• 
  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.

  Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported 37 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Dad got rushed to hospital still in and @O2 connection is still not working in my house or mums @virginmedia mobile same problem (according to there test it’s fine) well try using it here especially when a loved one is ill and you can’t even connect a phone call &it’s a main road

• 
  Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported 40 minutes ago 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

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 43 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  Slow 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

• 
  Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported 44 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

• 
  Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported 45 minutes ago from Oughtibridge, England

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

• 
  Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported 47 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

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

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

  @virginmedia been on hold 15 minutes your agent been back to me yet again same telling me I have to pay extra why do virgin think that if you charge extra this will fix an issue #badcustomerservice actually get it right first time to stop repeat calls

• 
  Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported 54 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

• 
  V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported 59 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

  @virginmedia Service desk closed for the evening, so logging this here. Broadband and television down in B24 8RB. TV shows a code CS2004. WiFi hub flashing red and TV box flashing a symbol with two arrows. Have rebooted WiFi, but this has made no difference.

  JacquieB 💚🤍💜 (@callderone) reported 8 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why can’t you cancel or reduce your package online? @Ofcom is it legal to try and delay any attempt to cancel your TV package by failing to respond to requests on messaging apps or keeping you holding on a call for hours?

• 
  Wizz (@Wizz57058652) reported 11 minutes ago

  @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia ISP's have to fix it within 30 days or you can leave your contract without the early penalty. @Ofcom
