-
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.
-
Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England@OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.
-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia 2 technicians over a week period, 4 visits. TV back on but Internet on and off now. Will be ringing Sky tomorrow and also your cancellation team. Clearly this is my service from now on.

Dowlo (@dowlo100) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia my elderly mother has been trying to contact you for over 3 weeks now to cancel her sub as it has gone up £60 pm. She has been out on hold numerous times and cut off no help on chat etc. her only option now is to cancel the DD as she can’t afford this anymore… help
-
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!
-
David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia If there is any tools that you can suggest I use to solve my issue it will be greatly appreciated, I don’t mean to mean in your position but I just would like to know exactly what you can do SHAW at the end of the day I’m assuming you’re going to tell me to go to technical help

liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia can you help me please everytime I try to log in the virgin media app on my mobile account it's logs me off all the time why ?
-
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?
-
Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Yes, it’s the email address that Virgin gave them for setting up the o2 mobile account. I spoke to o2 this morning and they’re having trouble changing it or even sending a text to us for security purposes to the number we are porting because that is now inactive.
-
Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England@virginmedia disgusting slow speeds AGAIN in NE27 Cant wait for my contract end

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
-
Craig Smart 💙 (@CraigSmartUN) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia Hi spoke to Customer services was told IT would get email sent out to me. 3 days later still no email to verify my email address so I can log into my online account.

-
Keith Dawson (@KeithRwc) reported from Washington, EnglandLooks like @virginmedia are again trying to take Netflix payment that should already be included in my Volt. This is disgusting behaviour having already spoke to them previously!! Anyone else having similar issues?
-
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
-
Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandWhat 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.

LivingSage (@LivingSage2) reported@Dacosta150 @Jojo_agboola Bro, I’m on Youfibre too, lovely network. I dropped virgin media broadband, not because they are bad but cos of Youfibre upload speed. Their 1000mbps download is same with their 1000 upload. I’m on You2000 and it’s been lovely. @Jojo_agboola should try it
-
Nick Morris (@nickjmorris_3) reported@virginmedia no tv or broadband all day in WD5 area. Called customer services who told us it would be fixed at 2:30am. That’s not good enough. Please can someone contact us to let us know how to get online sooner?

Khal (@khal_lfc) reported@Bev2810 @virginmedia I moved to YouFibre as @virginmedia was just too expensive and the service has been appalling over the last year
