  • 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 😡😡😡😡😡

    How about @skytv giving movie channels for free across all platforms @virginmedia @bt_uk and help keep people at home! Come on, do your bit Sky TV 👍

  • malandbren75 Malcolm Hodgson (@malandbren75) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia emails are not working the solution by Virgin is to log into My virgin media can you tell me how to do this when it is not recognising my log in and your call centres are all closed

  • Marilyn_huartt Marilyn malibu (@Marilyn_huartt) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Can’t answer calls ems bouncing back. Wouldn’t it make more sense to just take everyone’s sports package off. Paying £125 per month at this my point my other half is ready to cancel everything when we can.

  • dodgestweet Matt Dodge Donnelly (@dodgestweet) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Hi I text two evenings ago when you told me too, and then received a very generic response about upgrading my package online. I have since text again to say that the problem is with the increase and that I may need to cancel but nothing back yet. Over 6 hours on hold now to you!

  • goneinsixtysecs Simon (@goneinsixtysecs) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia three times since I first reported that I was having problems with all my services and it has gone down again

  • MajorManor lee major (@MajorManor) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  • goneinsixtysecs Simon (@goneinsixtysecs) reported from South Shields, England

  • 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... 😴😴😴😴

  • fossdog_ Jake Fossey (@fossdog_) reported from Stanley, England

  • 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

  • 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

  • sportingpat Patrick O'Kane (@sportingpat) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia No, unfortunately I never got that far. Seriously considering just cancelling and going with a company that has more respect for its customers. Literally became a client 5 days ago

  • sarah_bedell Sarah Bedell (@sarah_bedell) reported

    @virginmedia My Outlook is still not working. It took 5 hours to get my virgin email back because your technical team decided to shut it - and then send an email telling me! I have been vomiting with anxiety and missed loads of work. Way to go @virginmedia Thank you for your help. :-/

  • tamngaz220717 Gary murray (@tamngaz220717) reported

    @virginmedia @SpotifyUK So over a year of my tv Channels not working prop going all pixal I paid for an upgrade and got new remotes which I was promised would fix this guess what it hasn’t it’s worse and I can’t even speak to anyone as it’s automated and cuts you off so not great is it

  • sarah_bedell Sarah Bedell (@sarah_bedell) reported

    @virginmedia You have not resolved my issue. I have got back into my virgin media account, but my Outlook has been completed messed up and I cannot access my emails through Outlook. I cannot connect because it tells me to contact my ISP - you - but you deny any issues. I am in a hideous loop.

  • tamngaz220717 Gary murray (@tamngaz220717) reported

    @virginmedia so yet again I still can’t get channels as my tv is pixalling I was promised when I paid for an upgrade with new controls it would fix it guess what it hasn’t and I can’t even speak to anyone as it won’t put me through to a person this has been on going for a year

  • jamiecaines2 jamie caines (@jamiecaines2) reported

    Anyone having issues with virgin media every app on my phone isn’t loading that quick or is it just me?

  • brennen_mike Mike Brennen (@brennen_mike) reported

    @virginmedia Just spoke to your technical (again) who was talking absolute nonsense telling me that if there is an outage on YOUR network that my wifi will turn off 😳

  • cancelcakealt Yoshi (@cancelcakealt) reported

    @virginmedia Just been told by your telephone sales team that my address will never be able to get Virgin services... So looks like I'm stuck with Sky

  • ChrisJones_1 Chris Jones (@ChrisJones_1) reported

    @virginmedia OK I'm 20 minutes into your online chat, just trying to add one channel, and so far you've made several attempts to up-sell me things. And I know that if I cancel a sports channel I have to phone and go through the same hassle. This is why I'll end up cancelling CM. Just too hard

  • MisoKatiePie Katie Weidmann 💙💙 (@MisoKatiePie) reported

    @virginmedia Have just been 1hr 6 minutes on the phone to customer service and then Harvey in Retentions when my call dropped on hold. Rang back requested to speak to same agent and no one has called me back?? I rang to leave completely, got talked round now I want to leave again

  • GaryGrieer8 GaryGrier (@GaryGrieer8) reported

    @virginmedia another day where my broadband has just dropped out and will not work. What is wrong that you cannot provide a basic and reliable service?
