    Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I was told to log into the Myo2 app to change it myself, but I have been sent no login details and of course if the email address is incorrect it won’t be recognised if I try to register. O2 said we would receive texts with updates on number port timeline but had no communication

  • stephwales_
    Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia everything else is working except kids channels 712 to 717, W02 error. No other channel issues or broadband, done all the standard resets, unplugged at mains etc. Do I need to call to have this resolved? TV guide just says 'to be announced' Everything else is fine.

    @virginmedia Any idea when my service will be back? Hub is flashing green. I'm working from home so need it urgently.

  • NETheatreGuide
    NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Time for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.

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

    Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

  • geordievillan1
    The Geordie Villan (@geordievillan1) reported from South Shields, England

    3rd dayin a row on hold to @virginmedia to cancel my TV package and again its over 45mins no answer. Shocking customer service like.

    @virginmedia I look forward to the money off the bill for the issues.

  • UnicornRunning
    Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Lots of people are complaining about this on the customer forums. We've had very little downtime since the separate router was connected, it's suddenly gone to pot and seems to be a general issue at the moment.

  • purplelime
    Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t get the opportunity to call yesterday, but I noticed last night that it’s working again. There was nothing mentioned on service page (not unusual) but there must’ve been a fault that was eventually fixed.

  • Ne31phil
    Phil Robinson (@Ne31phil) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia please advise Reduced mobile signal in the NE31 area. The signals were fine until a couple of months ago. previously had 4g I now mainly get E or sometimes 3G this is an issue due to my elderly mother-in-law being in hospital and now very poor signal in their home

  • Carl_Walsh33
    Carl Walsh (@Carl_Walsh33) reported from Wallsend, England

    @jmstocka @virginmedia Has to be the worst app going. It regularly says this to me despite the 47 step verification

  • PaulCraig24
    Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia She has tried but every time they say they can’t help if she hasn’t got her password! Can I chat to someone about this as there are personal issues. I understand that this may be difficult as it is not my account. Thanks

    liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  • UnicornRunning

    @gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)

  • DJLKP
    LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Can I win a TV service that works (Thursday 2nd Dec it's been off since) , or internet with no huge drop outs please? Or a link that works to fix anything. #AllIWantForChristmasistheserviceipayfor

    @moonpeach212 @virginmedia Hey, VM will not sort anything out. I have spent so much time trying to sort out my issue as O2 failed to apply my Volt benefit. VM claims they have done everything while O2 claim they are waiting for VM confirmation. They drag the issue out hoping you will go away

  • cheetachops
    Cherta (@cheetachops) reported

    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    @j_ball13 @virginmedia They don’t alas. Day 30 of no services here and nobody customer-facing can say what the engineers have done or are going to do.

  • BarstowJenny
    Jenny Barstow (@BarstowJenny) reported

    @virginmedia no service for 32 days appointments booked but for wrong issue, every time I go in chat I get different reasons but nothing comes of it. complaints resolved with no communication with me, all I get is we are dealing with it, to say I’m fuming is an understatement
