  Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported 20 minutes ago from Walker Gate, England

  What will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.

  Sam (@purplelime) reported 31 minutes ago 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

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

  Craig Smart 💙 (@CraigSmartUN) reported 46 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  @virginmedia trying to set up online account ready for install on Wednesday, verification email expired. Clicking send new email but no email is being sent so can’t verify email. Please help!

  Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported 46 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported 47 minutes ago 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

  You lot need to sort yourselves out, Internet going down around midnight for the past few days yet you charge the earth @virginmedia

  Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported 50 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia Nothing reported when I checked before tweeting. Seems to have stabilised for now but must've dropped 15-20 times in the last 48h. No faults were reported on the site when my father-in-law had a complete loss of service a couple of months ago, but it was reported on the helpline.

• 
  Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 53 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  @virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.

  emma (@ema_neale) reported 56 minutes ago from Sunderland, England

  @virginmedia Thanks for your reset help earlier it worked, unlike waiting 10 hrs for someone to finally respond to me again via WhatsApp. I was told that there were no offers for current customers yet your website states otherwise!

  David (@Dave_is_Elvis) reported 58 minutes ago from Boldon Colliery, England

  @virginmedia checked your outage tracker and says all services good on the area. Been without internet for nearly an hour. What is going on?

  Last night I decided to join @virginmedia again via a virgin media assistant who was already in my area setting up for someone else, just one problem, he accidentally put my contract under “Mr” instead of “Mrs” how can I change it myself?

• 
  Abby R (@abbyr6498) reported 6 minutes ago

  @virginmedia never been so pissed off about something so minor. But the way your customer service team are is ridiculous. Then to try and say I will arrange the charge to be waived as if that solves the issue. Nothing should be waived for starters as I didnt get what I purchased

• 
  Clive (@clive503) reported 8 minutes ago

  @dvoradikal @virginmedia When I left this appalling company, I had so many calls I started calling them out for harassment! If they'd shown that much interest when I complained about intermittent broadband, I might have stayed! So glad I didn't thought! Better service, cheaper price!

  So, tomorrow begins the process of renewing my virgin media for the same price they offer new customers. My current deal renewal price £29.99pcm. New customer £24. The haggle and 1 hour of the worst customer service help line will be worth it.

  @virginmedia I’m getting so fed up with this. Every weekend. Every bank holiday. How long are you going to allow this intermittent signal to go on? I reckon it’s 4 weeks in a row now

  @virginmedia Estimated times were given on Thursday as 17th to fix. Friday 10th at 8am it said 18.00 on that day. 20 mins later it said 17th again. You need to sort out the messaging. I'm burning through my mobile data as a result of your self inflicted outage (it was an upgrade I was told
