-
Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!
-
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

GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England@calvg @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 Stop blaming us and be responsible for your crap connections
-
Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported from Sheffield, EnglandCoincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.
-
Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, EnglandWell @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?
-
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.
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported 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
-

-
Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia the cheek or virgin media staff complain about virgin router dropping out constantly call raise a complaint and tell them router is disconnected from network and request a hub 4 as been told this is what’s needed I get told I have to upgrade to 1 gig for new router
-
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?
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England@virginmedia I do need assistance over why the 4G backup didn't kick in when I had an outage last week but I've raised that with you already, I hope

-
Ian (@irbrassmonkey) reported@virginmedia What is going on with the internet in Bounds Green really not happy. This is my first month with you and because of this black out I have missed a one in a universe event. It will never happen again ever. Very disappointing.
-
Rorschach Slays🇸🇮🇪🇺🇬🇧 (@RorschachSlays) reported@misselledee @virginmedia This is normal. My friend has been on a broken line for weeks now. Engineers came out 3 times. His internet is still worse than his mobile internet. Virgin is saying everything is ok. Engineers barely know much more than: Let's reboot your router. Get out. Get City Fibre.
-
Shaun (@oliverjames77) reported@virginmedia good morning I hope you can help I have received a letter stating I owe £90 For equipment I returned, I Was told to return box and remote, can someone explain what is needed as I cancelled my contract and thought all was concluded … thanks
-
AdamB® (@OfficialAdamB) reported@mobily_uk @virginmedia You get a better deal when u 1st joined then after your in there trap u get shafted, price rise, price rise until u ring them then it drops. Then rinse and repeat. Same ****.
-
Stanley Percival Simmonds (@simmo1024) reported@Prosperity_Inst This is a question for parents, and parents should have the ability to enforce their decision. See Virgin Media, they have the ability to block social media. Government needs to force all ISPs, especially phone service providers, do provide the same, and turn it on by default. The bill-payer (e.g. the parents) then get to choose which sites to permit. What is not required is digital ID for everyone.
-
GrumpyByName 🇮🇱 (@LessGrumpy) reported@IanSlaterPhoto1 @BrydonN2 Absurd. One of the reasons I’ve never left virgin media is that they were the only fibre to the door operator round here till recently.
-
Jenny Roberts (@Miss_JRO85) reported@virginmedia no WiFi since 7am yesterday. Engineer appointment cancelled without me being told. I’ve now been told wait 48 more hours to see if the problem fixes itself. 4 hours on the phone to customer service and just been hung up on. Awful customer service.
-
Owly McHoot (@OwlyMcHoot) reported@mobily_uk @virginmedia Way back 30 years ago I worked for cable and wireless up at Seacroft; the retentions team called themselves The Dream Team; they got a bonus for each customer who threatened to cancel they converted to a retention-when you call, drive that deal down as they have a lot of scope.
