  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @GameOver0197 @virginmedia @bt_uk This must be the exception not the rule. My own experience is dreadful. Poor Cust service. Shameless hike in fees for no benefit. Several friends have had to leave as they didn’t get what they were promised. 3 words spring to mind. POT, KETTLE & BLACK.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @lostinpost DC - perhaps you or your manager should call the CS team on 789 as a mystery customer. You might begin to understand what a liability to the @virginmedia organisation they are.

  • BethTiger1973 Beth Wallace (@BethTiger1973) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia No known issues it says

  • Freddiefarkle freddie farkle (@Freddiefarkle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I simply want to be able to reduce my cost substantially due to poor change in circumstances online rather than Face long long waiting to chat on a phone .. and online I can double check read anything that's been suggested before proceeding

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @BT I tried. It was quite clear that you see no problem in putting my bill up by 325% I gave numerous chances to fix it, you just weren’t interested and now MY only interest is to tell as many people that will listen how bad @virginmedia is. I’ve already left so no going back now.

  • GreigDarby Greig Darby (@GreigDarby) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia are there any known issues in my area (Hartlepool) currently no Internet. I've tried resets and the broadband check but it says no issues.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia - your poor service never ceases to amaze me. I’ve received notice today advising my plan is ending and I’ll be moved to a new one. Extra £9 for 1Gb extra data & 1000 more minutes when I don’t use what I get now. I will use the get out clause. #AwfulCompany

  • AutonomyCounsel Fay Brown #projectsnowball (@AutonomyCounsel) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    ... @virginmedia don't ask us to fix your problems, we're paying you for YOUR SERVICES, not the other way round!

  • Emfozz Emma (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I asked for extension on bill on the 13th until the 27th, was told that was sorted, woke up this morning and been cut off, advisor told me the notes say I was told until the 21st which I wasnt & opened and closed my complaint because nothing else will be done

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @hickeydave1 I’m no longer interested in your complaints code, after all you weren’t interested in my complaint when it occurred. I’ve left and see no further satisfaction to be gained from your process. I will get huge satisfaction from telling anyone who will listen how poor @virginmedia is

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Both crap waste of a poll

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia JGS - You can do nothing. You have no access to my account as you often say. You will tell me to call CS on 789 and therein starts the problem. They offer service they can’t or won’t deliver. They are rude. Other than that, read my comments & tweets for detail.

  • Freddiefarkle freddie farkle (@Freddiefarkle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @virginmedia It is about time changes to package or cancel etc should be online

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @BigbadJohnny34 This must be the exception not the rule. My own experience is dreadful. Poor Cust service. Shameless hike in fees for no benefit. Several friends have had to leave as they didn’t get what they were promised. 3 words spring to mind. POT, KETTLE & BLACK.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @liamgreene Good luck with @virginmedia customer services. Their phone lines to that dept are about as reliable as their broadband service. #DropsAllTheTime #AwfulService

  • Freddiefarkle freddie farkle (@Freddiefarkle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Just seen this ..not really useful I and I suspect thousands of others just want to be able to downgrade or cancel online either by firm filling or live chat (or even quick response emails) .

  • Danielson_1991 Daniel Thompson (@Danielson_1991) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, appears there's issues with all services until at least 1255 this afternoon

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @nickkingone @virginmedia The @virginmedia customer service and product is definitely the joke

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @lostinpost @virginmedia @virginmedia bad service never ceases to amaze. Got letter to say mobile plan is ending and I’ll be moved to new one. Extra £9 for 1Gb extra data & 1000 more mins when I don’t use what I get now. CS shocking too. I’m out. Bye Bye. #AwfulCompany @bt outperforms you with everything

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • se3john John (@se3john) reported

    @virginmedia I can't see the section on handling false broadband claims from your ISP or the section on how to get your ISP to provision more capacity on their oversubscribed network. Maybe you could point me to those sections?

  • teamhillier2016 Fiona & Rich (@teamhillier2016) reported

    @virginmedia We have tried that too. It is bad on the laptops but worse on my phone. Might there be a reason for this? Is there something else that can be done as we are working from home so it is a really issue and actually not what we signed up for!

  • ash_mcloone Ashley McLoone (@ash_mcloone) reported

    @virginmedia @Virgin I dont know why but my #virgin app on mobile is saying this is wrong ID. And wasnt working on site either. BUT link i had in email from VIrgin, took me to sign in, and got in?

  • se3john John (@se3john) reported

    @virginmedia You're running your network backbone over WiFi?

  • onceinaLIVtime Liv (@onceinaLIVtime) reported

    @virginmedia We have called your construction teams and pre-installation teams this morning, both have said they cannot help us and that we should speak to the other team... this is beyond a joke.

  • HighburyHighs_ HighburyHighs (@HighburyHighs_) reported

    @virginmedia @erm2urm You know damn well it’s not a local area problem, you’re on Twitter now so just search “virginmedia” and see how many latest tweets from your team there are in the last hour alone, all saying the same thing. Stop trying to pass the blame and admit it’s you that has a problem.

  • N3CR0M4NC3R Daniel Barnes (Mr.N3CR0™) (@N3CR0M4NC3R) reported

    @virginmedia As per my added tweet above to my original there's yet another outtage in my area , local multiplex cabinet and others havn't been damaged so is a weird one.. all I can do is wait now as no active service at all

  • bettycutting bettycutting (@bettycutting) reported

    @virginmedia Yes , please can they call me this time so I don’t have to wait on hold ? I’m so over all the errors with virgin

  • Dissquiet Clare (@Dissquiet) reported from Diss, England

    @NikyEllison @msmalonedies @virginmedia Sorry you cannot change providers, Virgin 13th worst provider out of 14 according to Which? Poor customer service. Gutted for you.

  • StaceyMcCann_24 Stacey Mccann (@StaceyMcCann_24) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had a look but still don’t understand why it’s increased. Is the text service free?
