Robby #CelebrateNeighbours (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia Any idea when my service will be back? Hub is flashing green. I'm working from home so need it urgently.
-
Fraser Porter (@TheFraserPorter) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!
-
Steve Dey (@Stevedey) reported from Newburn, England@GingesLife @virginmedia Honestly mate it’s a joke! Just paid the bill yesterday and now the cheeky buggers can’t even provide the service they charge us so much for.

-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England1 whole week without any @virginmedia, months of signal issues. Engineer has gone out of his way but having to continually wait. Hopefully the engineer booked for tomorrow turns up and replaces my now faulty equipment.
-
JOP (@40yearsofhurt) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@Magpie24_7 Fitness levels of Virgin Media are poor.
-
Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England@_MMaritima @virginmedia I'd say that needs an engineer visit then at least. Probably either a bad connection or a flakey modem. Phone and log it every time it goes off.
-
Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia my Mam has been trying to sort her mobile out today. As she can’t remember her password or security answer, she has been unable to access her account to cancel it. Can you let me know what she can do?
-
Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Mitford, England@virginmedia Ridiculous service from your team in Manilla. Both Joy & Brian telling me I wasn't able to pass security because I couldn't tell them my next bill date as the package/contract is ended even after telling them my normal date and all other DP information
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia This appears to be a known issue on your forums (phantom calls) but we refuse to be charged for the visit. Also waiting for a WhatsApp for over an hour because the direct debit still has his late wife's name on account after 7+ years, & we can't change it online (same acc no.).
-
NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandTime 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.
-
Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia what channels do I need to go down for a stable connection check in my area, two days in a row internet keeps dropping not ideal when working from home. Thanks.
-
Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia why is your self service so poor please. Unable to resolve the fault that I have on my service for 2 days now. No one to speak to and the website is abhorrent in terms of customer experience and engagement. Endless loop of bad requests within the servers you use too
-
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
-
Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia I’ve looked & it’s no help
-
Trid (@TrevorRidley) reported from Whitley Bay, England@Designer_Ross @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia Yeah that’s the issue I’ve come across . Slow download speeds but always reported at just above the payment threshold. It’s got worse recently
-
Paul Corney (@Corney77) reported from Choppington, England@virginmedia disgusting customer service once again. No manage to take a call to help fix another problem with our service. Can someone please contact me to help

Yasmin alibhai-brown (@y_alibhai) reported@virginmedia So @virginmedia what are you doing about this problem? And failure on the part of your company?
-
🇺🇦 Clive Davies #FBPE 🔶🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@CliveDaviesUK) reported@O2 There’s really no point as nothing ever changes! And when Virgin Media goes down (which happens far too often) I have zero means of communication. The price hike was the last straw really - time to move to another provider.
-
Zoe Is Dangermouse (@ZDangermouse) reported@virginmedia pathetic service and customer service is non existent… bye 👋
-
J Harris (@BingoBertie) reported@RichardLXXII @virginmedia Simple. Arrange a new supplier. Cancel direct debit. Commence a claim under the direct debit guarantee scheme for the un-agreed unauthorised increased amount Never have anything to do with @virginmedia again Except for suing for damages for falsely registered credit reference
-
Sophia (@tayyab57488257) reportedTired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_PRO_IPTV16 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies
-
Davie G 🇬🇧 (@fredbeare) reported@virginmedia why is your customer service sooo bad spent 5 hours today on various chats/calls each time you transferred me had to start all over again. Why dont your teams speak to each other. In the end i cancelled joining you. Your lack of service told me all i needed to know
-
Yasmin alibhai-brown (@y_alibhai) reported@virginmedia My email account has been locked since last Thursday 11 June. I am an award winning journalist. This has totally disrupted my work. Your customer services raised a ticket P0136 01850 on Saturday to get it unlocked. Nothing has been done. Over to you.
-
Louise Ford (@pixiepoppett) reported@virginmedia Still no solution and fix times just being moved all day. Ur customer services was of no help. Will be leaving at first opportunity.
-
Tanisha Smith (@Tanisha_Molly) reported@virginmedia is there issues with the internet tonight? Ours has been connecting and disconnecting for the last few hours! 💀
-
Nicholas (@Nichola09215766) reported@virginmedia Are you able to contact the staff that used to work on them because I have a long running complaint and despite forum staff having access to info nobody at 150 can help and apparently the ONLY time my problem got identified and fixed nobody can find except for forum staff.
