  • wal_tastic Christopher Walton (@wal_tastic) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia right how do I going about getting a new router, I've had mine for about 4ys and it keep on dropping signal from phones!!

  • gazza_d Real Gaz of Trumpton #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia It would help if you read the thread and the attached screenshot. I did email with specific requests under gdpr. That was forwarded within VM and I got a generic dismissive reply which didn't even acknowledge the queries. Further eroding trust in VM

  • edginggodout Darren Leigh Arkless (@edginggodout) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @_simonlambert @GECFrost you said it about virgin media. Maybe it’s just me (King in waiting) but when I speak to customer services a “firm” stooge e.g nice but dim wills intercepts the calls to attempt to mentally turn me over. They are sinister AF. Now I’m locked out of iPlayer

  • VictoriaBarry82 Vicki barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    More issues with our broadband again today @virginmedia I don’t think we’ve had a full day off broadband for months 🤬 #timetocancel #wasteofmoney

  • mrspag47 Elizabeth Pearson (@mrspag47) reported from Stanley, England

    @BT_Openreach can I ask why a 0161 number rings me every day (foreign accent) states he's open reach when apparently this is virgin media!! I hang up

  • TyneTom 𝚃𝚘𝚖 𝙱𝚊𝚒𝚕𝚎𝚢 (@TyneTom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia It all started as a Blueyonder customer in the '00's.... But actually, no, best not...

  • leewhttngtn Lee Whittington (@leewhttngtn) reported from Hebburn, England

    Never felt so left down by @virginmedia after years of being a loyal customer my bill has increased by £20pm for no extra services when I rang to cancel I was offered £1 discount! To say I was insulted is an understatement, shocking service loyalty counts for nothing!!! Cancelled

  • lukejameson17 luke jameson (@lukejameson17) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia honestly get a ******* grip@of your WiFi man ******* joke if my tv has a known problem in my area. Why ******** Is my WiFi ******* down then *****

  • hilly_1986 Iain Hill (@hilly_1986) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Say no known issues. Wired is fine but WiFi all over the house is shocking! Tried moving the hub but can only go so far as it’s restricted by the wires.

  • GarYoung Gary Young (@GarYoung) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia just the most horrific service ever from you. Your agent agreed a discount due to poor service and to stop me leaving. It now transpires the discount is at the expense of skysportsHD which we did not agree. I’m now having to take it to ofcom because no one can help

  • RobbyRSSRobot Robby (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Just checking as it calls me your customer and I'm not! 🤣

  • gazza_d Real Gaz of Trumpton #fbpe (@gazza_d) reported from South Shields, England

    .@virginmedia have emailed me a survey about their handling of my complaint. Nil points all the way. To be fair once I managed to speak to someone she was ok(just) and gave me answers. Trust is so low I don't entirely believe them

  • lukejameson17 luke jameson (@lukejameson17) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia don’t give a **** what time of year it is but to reset my ******* WiFi 4 bastard times today is a ******* joke, absolute ******* usless ***** man

  • GarYoung Gary Young (@GarYoung) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I will@go@to ofcom and I will chaffe you for my hourly rate for any time expenses on this disgraceful approach to customer experience when I’ve been a loyal@customer for 15 years

  • M_RashidAmin Mohammed Rashid Amin (@M_RashidAmin) reported from South Shields, England

    @vmbusiness I’ve send a direct message. Im absolutely angry and annoyed by the situation today. Worst customer service experience.

  • 1lynzi1 lynzi owens (@1lynzi1) reported from South Shields, England

    Not sure who I spoke to @virginmedia but gota say she was really helpful. Top customer service 👍

  • VictoriaBarry82 Vicki barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia Yeah & someone promised to call back last week & they never. We’ve had no broadband since yesterday & it keeps acting up

  • TyneTom 𝚃𝚘𝚖 𝙱𝚊𝚒𝚕𝚎𝚢 (@TyneTom) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @gazza_d @jo2gard @virginmedia They are awful, but the broadband is fast, trick is to never try to communicate with them.

  • stephwales_ S t e p h . ♡ (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    Great what deals you can get when you ring to cancel your contract 👍 @virginmedia a very helpful Hayley in your call centre. Paying less now for more than double what I had before.

  • julieclayevents Julie Clay (@julieclayevents) reported from Shiremoor, England

    Don’t forget to cancel your @virginmedia @skytv package!!!! #nofootball 😢

  • Citytillidie12 Citytillidie (@Citytillidie12) reported

    @GINGER_ROCKET99 @virginmedia Nothing screams “Tory” quite like giving abuse to low paid workers. As the poor lad at virgin can’t say what he wants to in this situation, on his behalf “get a ******* grip you sad ****”

  • leenux_tux Nigel Henderson (@leenux_tux) reported

    @virginmedia Internet down since around 15:00 this afternoon. Currently 19:00. What's going on VM ?

  • OllieGlanvill Ollie Glanvill (@OllieGlanvill) reported

    @simonnread @virginmedia How many times have you required this type of callout for outages as a Virgin customer?

  • aRathbone1968 andrew rathbone (@aRathbone1968) reported

    @virginmedia Thats the problem I was on the phone for an hour n half and I was no wiser what they had planned to fix my issues after I hung up because they just put me on hold and I take it that is what they do if I'm a problem they can't fix

  • chineseaddict Jo Edmunds (@chineseaddict) reported

    @virginmedia It was back on this morning. I’m hoping there will be no more issues. It’s just disappointing as I have always thought of Virgin as the best for broadband but just recently it’s been quite unreliable.

  • HeadleyLeMuir Graham Muirhead (@HeadleyLeMuir) reported

    @virginmedia Having issues with broadband but service status says it’s TV issues 🤦🏼

  • lowis_fitt Lowis Fitt (@lowis_fitt) reported

    @virginmedia have no wifi and checked online and it says there are no issues in my area. Just called your helpline and was told that you are having a system update and they cannot access my account to check for problems and to call back in 3 hours. What should I do??

  • maryhippychick m a r y (@maryhippychick) reported

    @virginmedia again appalling service, WiFi keeps dropping , I'm doing an MA remotely having to hotspot my phone @O2 I will expect to get compensation

  • halfpenny_j Jackie Halfpenny (@halfpenny_j) reported

    @virginmedia My recent experience of speaking with the customer service team left me totally frustrated/disappointed.

  • andrewlwood Andrew Wood (@andrewlwood) reported

    @virginmedia I can’t access that page from my home network when the internet is down, for what should be fairly obvious reasons. If I log in using a hotspot, no broadband errors are reported.
