-
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?
-
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.
-
W. W. L. D. ? He'd stay at home. (@RobLow_7) reported from Sacriston, England@OffMyNoodles @virginmedia Many years ago, the way @virginmedia treated me, I vowed never to have anything to do with them from that day. Never have done, never will do.
-
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!
-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.
-
Neil Todd (@Neil_Rivelino) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia my V6 boxes have stopped communicating with each other (in reality downstairs is talking to upstairs but not vice-verse). Anyone who can help?
-
Mike Moody (@classicm) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia All my tv, broadband and phone services are down. Nobody available from Virgin to help. Done all the usual checks and still off.

Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England@virginmedia disgusting slow speeds AGAIN in NE27 Cant wait for my contract end
-
Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported from Whitley Bay, England.@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia The Hub is in modem mode connected to a separate wireless router as the Hub's WiFi has been poor since we got it, so technically it's a wired connection. Router's connection is lost when it drops so no devices can connect wirelessly. Has been stable for about 3 hours now.

Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England@virginmedia I called up about 6 weeks ago about the poor quality of the wifi, I was offered another booster free of charge. Then I received an email to say my bill was going up by £15.someone said they would listen to call, no one got bk 2 me & I called the other day & was told I was out of
-
Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia The link asks me to log in which I do, then it shows me my contract etc, I can either fill a form in for someone to contact me but I’ve did it before or it shows the complaint as been closed

Cameron Ross (@pumbingchap) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@virginmedia Well that was a pointless exercise reaching out to yourselves. Just proves once again what a load of rubbish Virgin is…. #virginmedia #garbage #dailymirror
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)
-
Adam Appleby (@adamappleby) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia seems your Cs WhatsApp is broken, can anyone one reactivate my WiFi pod?

-
guygorilla (@guygorillacity) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Agree - worst company - taking more than fixed price contract stipulated from an old age pensioner.
-
Chrissie (@Luv_Farmers) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I'm surprised that an investigative journalist even accepted these conditions in the 1st place. VM has an awful reputation for this kind of behaviour which is widely known. Sorry this happened to you but it was to be expected
-
BigK (@KelvinFavell) reported@virginmedia is there an issue sending out a 360 upgrade box? Told it takes up to 7 days. It is now 12.
-
Kelly Turner (@kellyj70) reported@virginmedia I am going round in circles. I’ve DM’d you several times and NEVER get a reply. Terrible customer service.
-
Swivel Eyed (@swiveleyed24) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I moved to community fibre a couple of years ago. Quarter the cost, faster Internet and better customer service.
-
Howard Freeman (@rwfc236) reported@virginmedia Internet down again, TV Down last week, problems are happening too often to be comfortable, perhaps the time has come to review my provider, there are many companies who chase me, I have resisted so far, but these mounting issues are too much
-
Στενδεκ (@stendec6) reported@virginmedia @Benleo Of the 12 companies that Which review, you're the second worst.
-
John Mercer (@Merse2506) reported@virginmedia After a week after transfer I still have no NETFLIX. They said 24 hours a week ago. I am a Kylie fanand have already missed promos and now going to miss the show promoted for the past few weeks. If i miss it i will never trust VM again.
