Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Barnsley, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Barnsley and nearby locations:

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I'm moving to sky, saving a tenner a month and adding sports and movies. I might be back in 18 months. Seems like hopping between providers is the only way to get a decent deal. It's perverse logic. Surely cheaper to retain a customer than gain one? But no, so I'm off.

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to start issuing people the Hub 4 as the SH3 is useless for delivering wifi. Doesn’t help that you seem to be constantly having issues and massive speed problems over the last month. Any chance of us actually getting a service that we pay for?!

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia still not gettingg full speed for connection on internet, very slow, phone lines a joke still to get through - Covid as per usual - fed up of slow speeds constantly after new router!!! Please sort yourselves out!!!

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are you going to provide a functional service? Having to constantly reboot your pile of **** “Superhub 3” multiple times a day because you’re saying that’s the fault... what exactly am I paying for? #Virginmediaisshite

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia when are we going to finally have some functional WiFi service from yourself? 3/4 days constant issues... pathetic

  • liaryredhead Angelina Perrett (@liaryredhead) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond

  • martynbolt Martyn Bolt (@martynbolt) reported from Mirfield, England

    Terrible customer service by @virginmedia cancelled 0800 installation in Dewsbury today at 2100 last night Strangely blaming @KirkleesCouncil

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    @virginmedia please please can someone help me. I left virgin in October and have had several calls to say I didn't ask to. Now they are threatening me with debt recovery. Is this correct

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Cos I've been a customer for well over a decade and I'm sick of seeing new customers get given the moon on a stick to join. I reckon your sales team would let a new customer have a night with their wives to sign them up. But loyal customers get nothing.

  • mrriddlesworth Mr Riddlesworth (@mrriddlesworth) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I test through a wired connection, i have already sent a complaint form with all the details on the online portal.

  • bally79 Suzy Swift (@bally79) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia Can’t get through to customer services need an engineer to come to mums as unable to set up broadband and phone line! And why you sent out a tv box when she isn’t having virgin tv is puzzling?!

  • PippaKOldfield Pippa Oldfield (@PippaKOldfield) reported from Wakefield, England

    @AssistanceVm @TranslatioNinja @virginmedia That’s a bit of a salty reply. I think your customer was referring to various barriers in the way of cancelling her contract, not the difficulty involved in selecting call options. She’s still been unable to cancel and is being pressured her to keep her contract.

  • Healeybrooks Healey 🤍💛💙🏆 (@Healeybrooks) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia are the absolute worst company I have ever come across. 18 days trying to get them sort their shambolic internet dropping & still being passed from 1 agent to another in same team. Don't waste your time with this company. They have no idea what customer service is.

  • summitsleap Anita Whittaker (@summitsleap) reported from Conisbrough, England

    If you are going to cancel a contract and move to a new provider, don't rely on them taking action from your phone request. They can always say you didn't call then continue to charge for something more expensive, @virginmedia will then pass you to debt collection companies.😔

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia It admits it’s not working .. says my coverage of a **** .. then offers to fix it for another £60/year .. same week they send me a letter to say my bill is increasing anyway .. clearly forgotten we’re in a pandemic!!!

  • Gag_N_Bone_Man Graeme Rayner 💙 (@Gag_N_Bone_Man) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @iamaafaq @sky @virginmedia Point of principle now. Been with virgin for over a decade and the deal is awful. They don't reward loyalty. Grwat package from Sky. Only are that's worse is speed but for our purposes it's fine. We don't game online and i no longer download torrents etc

  • loonylankylegs 🇬🇧Russelena Jessie🇬🇧 (@loonylankylegs) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia Yes but can never get through via phone

  • Healeybrooks Healey 🤍💛💙🏆 (@Healeybrooks) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Yes after 1.5 days I heard from tech team who said I need faster broadband, they put me in queue for customer relations who upgraded me last night but today we've lost internet 4 times 🤬 Will give it another day but probs spending tomorrow night onwards trying to get through 😡

  • Mashcat Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England

    @koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈

  • Joannemarygriff Joannemarygriffin (@Joannemarygriff) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia On demand still not working and every time I sign in it’s been moved on three days for repair in my area. This has been ongoing for two weeks now which I find unacceptable especially when all bills have just gone up in price.

  • DK1_DK1 DK (@DK1_DK1) reported

    @virginmedia To my mobile. As I've said I appreciate updatds to marketing preferences can take up to 30 days. But regardless of a customer's marketing preferences you shouldnt be hounding me this often with the same call. You would probably call me less if I stopped paying my bill!

  • ozi9mm oz (@ozi9mm) reported

    @virginmedia Over time we called Virgin media to discuss contract ending and possibly cancelling or renegotiating contract many times. Everytime we call they put us on hold to check acc and drop . Asked for a call back if it cuts off everytime and never got a call back fed up

  • tfoyle Tom Foyle (@tfoyle) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I do. I have always had issues with O2 signal hense why I'm not with 02 as a network operator. Is it possible to get out of my 2 year contract as I wouldn't of renewed if I knew this was going to occur

  • SteveSlade273 Steve Slade (@SteveSlade273) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. How come a new customer can have the same deal for £35 a month cheaper than an existing customer? Doesn't really seem fair tbh

  • obsilverfox Ollie Brown (@obsilverfox) reported

    @virginmedia I am away and roaming isn’t working. It won’t reliably connect. I have already restated the phone multiple times. I’ve enabled roaming both in mobile data and sim applications I’ve tried to auto select network and tried all networks available…

  • CapitalC07 Chloe (@CapitalC07) reported

    @virginmedia I put in my post code and it says it’s not valid. It is the correct post code so there must be an issue with the link

  • cui_yulong tony (@cui_yulong) reported

    @virginmedia No RF signal detected, what should I do?

  • HelenRashleigh helen rashleigh (@HelenRashleigh) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, can’t be done, apparently! I have a land line and broadband. Don’t use land line. Never have . Paid for that since 2018. Charged £63. Neighbour pays £30 for just broadband. I was told I had to have LL. I’m offered a £9 discount to remove , because I’m already a customer 😡

  • stephieceeee Stephanie Carter (@stephieceeee) reported

    @virginmedia When I spoke to someone on the phone via the number you provided, they said it was a real virgin media number. Quick Google search shows conflicting messages on the virgin media help forum. Has Virgin sold my details?

  • tfoyle Tom Foyle (@tfoyle) reported

    @GirlJambo @virginmedia They are migrating customers over to 02s infrastructure hense I have also experienced deterioration of network quality
