  • greav41 Paul Greaves (@greav41) reported from Gateshead, England

    @simonrim @virginmedia Ended up removing them from our lives due to atrocious (being generous here) customer service. Even now they are threatening £130 charge due to them not sending out the box return kit.

  • panicdragon8779 John Brunton (@panicdragon8779) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No problem

  • TaylorBurgen93 Taylor (@TaylorBurgen93) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia your customer service team is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard! Routers not working switch off then back on... it’s broken I can book an engineer for Saturday....

  • Northlander74 𝔖𝔱𝔢𝔭𝔥𝔢𝔫 𝔍. 𝔍𝔞𝔠𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔰 (@Northlander74) reported from Newbiggin-by-the-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely not, I'm not a customer, plus your service doesn't come this far north anyway

  • ozwaldo1985 Craig Osborne (@ozwaldo1985) reported from Wallsend, England

    @LouisRoss67 Virgin Media box up to 2 and a half minutes tonight, switched to Apple TV and I’m down to about 20 seconds

  • trisgallagher Hot Acid Rhythms (@trisgallagher) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Every single day for the last week my router just turns itself off and starts to update or drops out completely. Paying a lot of money for this service and it just isn’t good enough.

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Anyone else on @virginmedia getting “To Be Announced” on virtually every channel. Tried rebooting, switching on and off. Strikes me that VM has gone to shit recently. Loads of channels have gone, close to sacking it off.

  • ktowers74 Karen Towers (@ktowers74) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my internet isn't working in NE25, are you having issues in this area 😥

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Worst customer service from any broadband company. Avoid like the plague.

  • godisageordie andy kindred (@godisageordie) reported from Gateshead, England

    @neeta68 @virginmedia Worst customer service I have encountered is with Virgin media and mobile , needless to say I am no longer one of their customers, good luck

  • neeta68 Anita Whelan (@neeta68) reported from Gateshead, England

    @Davidwillough19 @virginmedia After another 22 minutes and explaining it all again, calmly and politely I may add, the other person has hung up, unbelievable! @virginmedia can you help me please

  • barbarafoggo Barbara Foggo (@barbarafoggo) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Wow @virginmedia amazingly poor customer services on many levels. Not your best moment @richardbranson

  • 1lynzi1 lynzi owens (@1lynzi1) reported from South Shields, England

    Not sure who I spoke to @virginmedia but gota say she was really helpful. Top customer service 👍

  • neeta68 Anita Whelan (@neeta68) reported from Gateshead, England

    16 mins on hold to @virginmedia before I got through to someone who said she needed to transfer me to another department, the recorded message of that department said the number no longer exists and gave me the original phone number to ring! Some customer service that!!!

  • barbarafoggo Barbara Foggo (@barbarafoggo) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I really don’t think you can. Please provide me with an email address for the complaints department. I will write a full and detailed email and if no resolution I will forward my complaint to Ofcom.

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

    @virginmedia your shit broadband and tv service is down again for the third time this week and it’s only Tuesday WTF do I pay you for! I bet I don’t see a refund for what you don’t deliver 😡

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia This lithium service you use is to get people off social media. It obfuscates and is unable to resolve anything. I'll take my chance in the legal system and with independent ombudsman.

  • lalunatic michael lamb (@lalunatic) reported from Sunderland, England

    @simonrim @virginmedia Worst company going

    @virginmedia is there an issue with the red button on sky sports as I can’t access any games on it?

  • jon_Oncecontent Jon (@jon_Oncecontent) reported

    @virginmedia Thats my question though - why can’t you - Dongle because the service has been poor fitting the broadband - ordered 22 August - order wasn’t done - wasn’t fitted - won’t be until November / its appalling - people hang up / drop calls / don’t call back - Joke
