  @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

  Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported 13 minutes ago from Sheffield, England

  Moved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating

  @virginmedia please sort the Sky Red button issue which is preventing Sheffield United fans subscribed to Virgin from experiencing the service they've paid for.

  @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

  Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 24 minutes ago from Wakefield, England

  @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported 25 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

  John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported 32 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.

• 
  Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported 34 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

• 
  Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ 🔰 (@Callum_SEND) reported 42 minutes ago from Brampton Bierlow, England

  @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

• 
  Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported 47 minutes ago 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?

  Amanda Brightmore (@mandybaps1) reported 58 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

  @virginmedia are you trying to call ref my complaint. I believe I am trying to be scammed by people claiming to be from Virgin.

  Russell Frew (@rhfrew) reported 16 minutes ago

  @virginmedia The landing page is a pain in the backside. The user should be able to disable it if they want. Please issue a fix!

• 
  Gauci Reports (@GauciReports) reported 19 minutes ago

  @LPXIOP This isn’t anything new tbh. The two copper networks are basically BT & Virgin Media. They’ve been migrating across to VOIP (Voice over ip) for a long time now. Unfortunately copper networks have become old and expensive to maintain and quality of service just deteriorates over time with fault calls, replacing cables and customer complaints etc.
