  • ruthemmj Ruth Bennett (@ruthemmj) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Other than checking the plugs and the cable connections - your light indication service doesn’t work.. it made me run and run and run diagnostics and engineers in 3/4 days isn’t good enough - still didn’t repost any fault even saying the internet wasn’t working.. RUBBISH

  • samiq Gilbert Corrales (@samiq) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia hey guys is internet down in Gateshead? Lost connection now foe 30min and rebooting the router doesn’t work

  • GraemeBell_NUFC Graeme Bell (@GraemeBell_NUFC) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to an understanding and reasonable human please? Or do they not exist in your company? I’ve had nothing but trouble from day one and the customer service has been woeful

  • ruthemmj Ruth Bennett (@ruthemmj) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Done that.. hence why calling - your website is crap

  • HBP_Surgery_CHS Ben Banerjee (@HBP_Surgery_CHS) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Never ceases to amaze how poor @virginmedia is. Successive errors including appalling dropping out broadband. Now transferring to BT today and they stop internet last night despite specifically saying I wanted no gap in service. Glad to leave after 23 years.

  • stevemhh Steve Mayne (@stevemhh) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia Nice adverts for your content, shame my recorded delivery complaint about my issue originating in MARCH (after three failed online submissions and pointless texts) has still not been acknowledged,been ignored,treating a customer as a piece of 💩 way to go 👏🏻

  • annoyed_thyroid Sammie (@annoyed_thyroid) reported

    @virginmedia Your team suggested I reach out to the named person (who I don’t know or never heard of) and ask them to phone customer service to remove my mum’s details 😳 this has been very upsetting. My mum did live at the property but moved 3 years before she died.

  • HotHayleyUK ʜᴀʏʟᴇʏ ᴅᴀɴɪᴇʟꜱ🌹 (@HotHayleyUK) reported

    @virginmedia Well it's either you or it's @AdultWorkcom that doesn't work. I have tried different laptops, different browsers, wired connections and unwired connections. Next thing will be to change broadband provider...as they seem to think it's @virginmedia
