  • vitosauras Helen #RacingForAnthoine🇧🇪 (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    Hi @virginmedia sort the Internet issues out in NE10 please that's twice my connection has dropped in the last hour

  • dannyrobbo82 Danny Robinson (@dannyrobbo82) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia understand that like every other business that you’re short staffed with the pandemic, but the speed of internet recently has been shocking. Website is useless, community help is useless. Don’t want to ring up, yet they’re happy to still take my money every month.

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @virginmedia .... 0420 and still no service 😡😡😡😡😡

  • WillHowe Will Howe (@WillHowe) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia consistently excellent service and speeds but today has been a real headache, internet going down for ~20mins ever 1hr-1hr30 all day

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @monsterwba1968 @virginmedia Don’t bother they don’t work either... after 6 months of shit internet I got one... still can’t get WiFi upstairs... and I am not in a mansion!

  • justraffers helen rafferty 🌹 (@justraffers) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia every month I have the same issue. Go to pay bill and despite having Google auto password (which works on every other thing I log in) it says my log in is wrong and I have to reset it EVERY MONTH!! EVERY MONTH!! IT'S RIDICULOUS

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @DavidAHSleath @virginmedia I love the customer service when they just end the call half way through trying ‘to help’ I once spent 5 hours back and forwards with the every part of the business... engineers... blah blah blah... still was no better! Until I managed to get through to Scotland! 👍🏼

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @DavidAHSleath @virginmedia Me and you must of spoken with the same ‘fabulous customer service’ shame it’s my only option where I am ... although dial up maybe easier! 🤣🤣🤣

  • Earlosnicho Earl Nicholson (@Earlosnicho) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia why you bullshitting everyone you have serious concerns with your broadband at the moment I’m following all customer services advice and myn still isn’t working even your media connect app is down!! #sortit

  • Earlosnicho Earl Nicholson (@Earlosnicho) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia are you just responding to tweets you want to reply to your service is failing big style I’ve spoke to customer service to sort my broadband concern followed their procedures and it’s still not working #pathetic

  • MarcusRoberts13 Marc (@MarcusRoberts13) reported from Morpeth, England

    @robhinds @mark395625 @virginmedia It’s always baffled me how existing customers don’t get decent deals when you’re showing loyalty by staying with them. It’s the same with all utilities and when they say you have to CALL to cancel it turns into a nightmare

  • MatthewEmmer Matthew Emmerson (@MatthewEmmer) reported from Gateshead, England

    Can’t continue to work remotely from for the NHS if this #virginmedia issue is on-going 😭

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @spookysquidd @virginmedia Do let me know how your customer experience is when the shit hits the fan for you... when you have been a loyal customer for 14 years! 🙌🏼

  • Dyl_Atkinson Dylan Atkinson (@Dyl_Atkinson) reported from Washington, England

    Virgin media are not stupid like give everyone 10GB free data then nock everyone’s WiFi off so they go over there allowances😂

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @spookysquidd @virginmedia Thanks for your input 🙄 I have issues with how bad the customer service is in general. On that note it’s back down... 😴😴😴😴

  • mainini_Seti Se Tinah (@mainini_Seti) reported

    @virginmedia they still want me to pay the discontuing fees as i have breached the contract which i just renewed this last Aug they said the service was off for 9 days so thats ok unless if it was thirty day so if i leave I will be charged but i will be refunded the nine days with no service

  • BryanLedger B Ledger (@BryanLedger) reported

    @virginmedia do you think its acceptable that i have to pay for this service after waiting all morning for your technician not to show up and now i have to wait a further two weeks?

  • mrshom3rsimpson ❤️ Mrs Wow ❤️ (@mrshom3rsimpson) reported

    @virginmedia any chance you can just get your act together and fix all the area outages? 3 weeks in a row, 3 outages. It's a disgrace. Your call center are no better

  • PhilBemmygas Phil Clarke (@PhilBemmygas) reported

    @virginmedia Appreciate your reply, just not happy with the escalation and resolution process. Nobody seems willing to actually get the problem sorted, there seems to be a rigid application to written processes with no deviation. I won't be recommending any family or friends to Virgin 😥

  • BryanLedger B Ledger (@BryanLedger) reported

    @virginmedia So its fine that i have to wait two weeks now? You as @virginmedia think its all good to not show up, not make a quicker booking and still charge the full fee? It does show how bad the customer service is for anyone considereing signing up with virgin.

  • TamaraRenshaw4 Tamara Renshaw (@TamaraRenshaw4) reported

    @virginmedia Dear Mr Mockridge, I have a major complaint to raise NOW, please call me immediately about my account with you.07741 478221 Miss Renshaw

  • jabesmxtv jabesmx (@jabesmxtv) reported

    @PyrionFlax @virginmedia Didn't know you had Xfinity/Comcast in the UK. What woeful technical support. Just depressing.

  • StarfishAndCafe Starfish & Coffee (Best Brunch Winner 2022) (@StarfishAndCafe) reported

    @virginmedia can you provide any update on the broadband outage please? Fourth day trying to run a business without Internet. You're killing us here.

  • daveglass1 dave glass 🧠💙£££✈️ (@daveglass1) reported

    @virginhelp @virginmedia @Virgin - folks my tv keeps cutting out even though Im getting 67mbs. Help please.

  • Ginds79 Gurminder Singh (@Ginds79) reported

    @O2 Two weeks in a row. Surely you guys have the infrastructure to manage this offer? Services have become poor since the merger with Virgin Media. Total shambles.
