    @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.

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

  • EmSatch EmSatch (@EmSatch) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Continual issues with the credit agreement email not arriving (and yes I checked junk!) It took a webchat and 3 calls to get anywhere near resolving this. Had my dad in his 70s in tears at the stress. I do have to say after almost 2hrs on the phone today we finally 1/

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller 🇺🇦 (@geemiller71) reported from Washington, England

    @ee no signal on 5g in @IcelandFoods wife 4g on @virginmedia full signal.

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

    A week of no issues after a month of next to no tv and now it starts all over again. I have sound and the guide but just a black screen on every channel. So glad my contract is up, deffo going to be leaving this time. Waste of time and money!!!!! @virginmedia

  • liamsholder91 🇺🇦liam sholder #ISTANDWITHUKRAINE🇺🇦 (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working ne4 8qh please sort it 🙏

  • gazza_d 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.

  • Dave_is_Elvis David (@Dave_is_Elvis) reported 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?

  • ZicoPete Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England

    On hold with @virginmedia for 20 minutes then they decided to cut my call.. great service. 👍

  • 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

  • gazza_d Real Gaz on a proper bike #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @_MMaritima @virginmedia Wired speed test would be to isolate between a wireless problem or the connection in. Router might be shielded which would kill signal. Make sure other electronics aren't too close. I can ruin my wireless if I put router on top of my TiVo box

  • 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.

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller (@geemiller71) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Dont wanna air my business over a feed. Asvised phone we got was outa stock. Faulty phone . Was gonna exchange bit out of stock.i had to cancel contract then take a new one out. But send phone back but wife hasnt a spare???

  • ZicoPete Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia No, tried 3 times on hold for 20 minutes then cut off by agents without saying a word. After checking other responses I can see this has been the issue either other customers.

  • allymcgeorge Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia hi I need to cancel an engineer appointment but clearly you've made this difficult to do. Any thoughts?

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

    1 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.

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller 🇺🇦 (@geemiller71) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia broadband down??? Ne34????

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller (@geemiller71) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Horrific customer service

  • hylt64 Hilly Marshall (@hylt64) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia The issue is I’m trying to cancel my services but I see how you keep customers as nobody will answer the phone to do this hence the reason nobody can leave I’ve now been on hold 1hr 14mins which is totally unacceptable

    @virginmedia The app has booked me an engineer appointment for Friday…. My coursework is only due tomorrow, no problems….

  • Lankers Sri Raghavan (@Lankers) reported

    @virginmedia Please also check your recorded calls about the customer skills among your team. Extremely disappointed by their lack of support.

  • TonyBonnerChef Tony B (@TonyBonnerChef) reported

    @virginmedia The fact that our TV services like Netflix and Prime movies wouldn't play suggest it was a poor supply.

  • Paudie87 P (@Paudie87) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Cant even cancel this ****** service because nobody will answer the phones.. #virginmedia

  • lisahurst173 Lisa (@lisahurst173) reported

    @virginmedia Well raised a complaint with your company just to be totally fobbed off again! Didn't even read my complaint. I think Ofcom will be interested

  • pisaint pi (@pisaint) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia hi I reported an issue on sunday & an engineer booked for today who has not shown up. I have hardly any programmes & rebooted box numerous times.I am now unable to get through on the phone as message is saying there is an issue but my service update says no issues

  • Lankers Sri Raghavan (@Lankers) reported

    @virginmedia We have done these steps twice now - once yesterday and again this morning. We have done the pin reboot twice and have powered off and on 6 times. The internet connection is not stable. It keeps dropping intermittently. Meaning, works for about 3 or 4 mins, then drops. pls help

  • Pariz1 Pariztasia Beaverhousen (@Pariz1) reported

    @virginmedia You can help with refunding my last 2 bills but I won’t hold my breath and I have disconnected from your services because I refuse to pay £83 per month for a service I can only use sporadically , it’s just blatant disrespect and robbery at this point!

  • lisahurst173 Lisa (@lisahurst173) reported

    @virginmedia A fob off email when I asked for a phone call, still using my old name and saying they couldn't see a current outage. Probably because I'm complaining about repeated outages in July and early Aug. 🙄 I'm disgusted

  • beff__xo Beth Willmott (@beff__xo) reported
