  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia And our Virgin TV has failed again your service truly is shite and a waste of my money looks like we are left with terrestrial TV through our always reliable tv aerial again you should be deeply ashamed of your outrageously poor service 👎

  • AL_SNR58 Allan Davis (@AL_SNR58) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia Tomorrow. This has been going on for over two weeks intermittent but the way I was treated was not the way to treat a loyal customer

  • AL_SNR58 Allan Davis (@AL_SNR58) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia I have informed the manager that I wanted to make a complaint and he has noted it. I am just starting to calm down now

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia Back up and working again I look forward to the next time your service fails - the worst service I’ve experienced since the demise of dial up internet and party line telephones 👎

  • RobbyRSSRobot L🍩ui💲e (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia No sorry I'm meaning the Internet on my virgin mobile phone is slow

  • jameshedges4 James Robert Hedges (@jameshedges4) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia No known issues. It’s only wireless speeds. There is no excuse for this, it happens to me almost everyday. I would like to discuss it with someone as I tried at the weekend and was completely fobbed off by your service team. I pay nearly £50 a month and often have to use my 4G

  • amymccordx Amy McCord (@amymccordx) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I was speaking with an agent an hour ago due to an issues with WiFi. They said they’d 100% ring me back in 30 mins as we did a hard reset of the booster. It’s been another 30 mins since then and no one has called. #notmyday

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I have the App but having it confirm what I already know is no help whatsoever. Instead of investing in Apps that confirm your service is not fit for purpose why not invest in providing an unfailing service to customers. Currently you take money for services you can’t deliver

  • scottilderton Scott Ilderton (@scottilderton) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia on hold for 46 mins so far having select options to cancel. The guy the system put me through to cant do this🙄 So i’m back on hold what horrific service #operationkeepthemallonhold

  • d_n_g_x 𝑫𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆🐸 (@d_n_g_x) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia It was @Stacey_MW_WL with the problem

  • AL_SNR58 Allan Davis (@AL_SNR58) reported from Sunderland, England

    @lisadunn1978 @virginmedia I have just had hell on and demanded to speak to a manager. At first I was told there was no issue in our area and it was the router then the manager has told me that there is a problem in our area

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia I didn’t miss your point I just do t agree with it - if we pay for service everyday it should work every single day. I do not consider any failure to be a good service

  • Clarquey Simon Clark (@Clarquey) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Hi @virginmedia. Trying to call, text, WhatsApp my wife today attempting to sort out our children etc and completely unable to. My contract has just been increased. Pretty shocking service and I'm paying more! I would expect some compensation at the very least 😡 #VirginOutage

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia I changed to Virgin because BT would drop out regularly in the middle of the Moto GP. Used to have a great service with Sky but they charge an extra 30 something quid for BT Sport

  • RobbyRSSRobot L🍩ui💲e (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    For all the poor sods like me who had nothing but trouble today! #VirginMedia #Virginmediaoutage

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia @jeffsprogress It didn’t work for a day and you think it is a great experience and good service. With that attitude no wonder we get such a shit service

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    Looks like @virginmedia are just as rubbish as @BTtv their rubbish service has been failing all night making watching catchup TV a right pain looks like I need another provider

  • RobbyRSSRobot L🍩ui💲e (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @anemoneproject @virginmedia @virgeinmedia The account is suspended now. I'm going to guess a disgruntled customer!

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia And no I can’t match it Virgin Media fails almost every week, we have a whole other level of shit service compared to you 👎

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It was just internet TV that day but today all your services telephone, TV (all channels) and the broadband are repeatedly failing - no idea why I get billed for such poor service I mean the phone FFS do you think it’s 1984!

  • memewithadream Papiliona (@memewithadream) reported

    @virginmedia there has been an alleged WiFi and broadband outage in the NW8 area for the past week. It was supposed to be fixed this evening (and all the evenings for the past six days) and now you've delayed it once again.

  • GRWilson38 GRW (@GRWilson38) reported

    @_mdara @virginmedia It’s the child safe on web safe that’s doing it. If you turn it off, it will play them. Virgin need to sort the problem tho as that’s just a temporary work around

  • Birksyal Alan Birks (@Birksyal) reported

    @virginmedia can you help? On many of the tweets I receive I am getting the message ‘Content not available’

  • GillW1220 Gill White (@GillW1220) reported

    @TwitterSupport @BillBarclay This is a major problem now and has been since Saturday morning. This mostly affects @virginmedia customers, and has been reported by literally thousands of people. Just search ‘content not available’. This is not resolved yet.

  • ronaldigray Ron Gray (@ronaldigray) reported

    Got to say @virginmedia has to be the hardest customer service and technical help team to get in touch with. 1 help options on phone 2 reset router 3 call back 4 txt messages to do same as robot voice on phone but does not fix problem I want to speak to a human - is that so hard?

  • bujarferizolli summer time (@bujarferizolli) reported

    @virginmedia @leonagraham V media you're absolutely useless she's been wanted to fix this internet for a long time and why no one has picked up the phone and rang her instead

  • Cyrawx Asher D➐ (@Cyrawx) reported

    So there's another update on my whole on going situation with @virginmedia making me have to feel like a ******* Karen constantly having to complain to get what I pay for and have had to open an @Ofcom complaint as well.

  • spooncarrotsbox beth ¹ᴰ (@spooncarrotsbox) reported

  • GRWilson38 GRW (@GRWilson38) reported

  • craigs06 ¿craig? (@craigs06) reported
