    @virginmedia can you help me with a broadband technical issue. I have 200Mb, power cycle the router daily and still by the end of the day end up with super slow speeds. Less than 1Mb tonight. Thanks.

  • Lauras95 Lauraaaa (@Lauras95) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It's always 47.37 when it should be a straight £47. We do everything online and never get paper stuff to do with our package or billing

  • Lauras95 Lauraaaa (@Lauras95) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It was for my internet and TV account. I've managed to do it on my housemates app as they had no issues with the app.

    @sky do you resolve customer complaints in less time than the 3 weeks @virginmedia need #imightneedanewprovider #coolingoffperiod #virginmediasaga

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia #virginmediasaga on hold to yourselves again. #youneednewholdmusic. Although I do find it ironic that you play a song with the lyrics 'I'm a sucker for you. The only suckers are the customers like me that can't seem to get issues resolved! #virginmedia #thieves

  • ll370 IanBurns (@ll370) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks back with you and my signal keeps dropping almost every single day, best internet provider. I think I have grounds to terminate my contract. What a joke

  • bigpinkdressgnr BIG PINK DRESS (@bigpinkdressgnr) reported from South Shields, England

  • MrPaulDH Paul Humphreys (@MrPaulDH) reported from Washington, England

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    So your staff forgot to cancel my service properly and then conveniently raised two new bills rather than giving us the 70 pound you owe us. 2 X managers and not a clue between any of them #virginmedia #thieves #makethecustomerpayforyourmistakea

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No better, worse. Still no response from you. I’m told technicians aren’t available because the coverage is so bad across the board

  • OptiDcf David Fisher (@OptiDcf) reported

    @VodafoneUK Sorry, but too late. Have now gone to Virgin Media. Originally on each occasion Openreach supposedly called me and although I never had any calls, they said that I cancelled it. Someone needs to get their act together
