  • Lopek Andy Gibson (@Lopek) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia It's the continued problems that annoy me. Down again now, third time this Easter Weekend. Yes it's showing as down on your dashboard. I always check & flag it when I (also) have a problem. Getting worse all the time. Beyond a joke.

  • LouiseBaldock Louise Baldock 💙 (@LouiseBaldock) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    2 calls on landline from Asia, using dummy UK phone numbers, pretending to be from Virgin Media, telling me of a problem with the security of my router. Neither liked it when I told them their mother and father would be deeply ashamed if they knew what their son was doing.

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Waiting on the Medallia survey as the engineer was fab. Want to make sure he gets recognition for his good service

  • TerryFBH Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I look forward to receiving your offer regarding the complaints that I already made and have still not received a response. I suppose you could consider this a further complaint that your complaints process is inadequate.

    @virginmedia Why does your organisation make it so difficult to raise a complaint? Please advise with whom I may raise this.

  • Curriepeter1 Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Why are virgin media so crap so slow and keeps buffering every day we pay for a service that’s not fit for the purpose

  • JamesGilroy James Gilroy (@JamesGilroy) reported from Yarm, England

    @cyclingbetting @virginmedia Had a similar issue before Christmas. One of their engineers came out, changed router cable and some settings on router. Works champion now

  • Core_Legal CoreLegal (@Core_Legal) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Our phone lines and internet are down at our Wakefield office at the moment due to a national Virgin media issue. We have been advised that this is trying to be rectified as soon as possible and when we have an update from them we will update our social media platforms.

  • CraigScanlon86 ⒸⓇⒶⒾⒼ ⓈⒸⒶⓃⓁⓄⓃ (@CraigScanlon86) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    3 weeks and 2 engineers later and the broadband outage between the hours of 6 and 9 continues, absolute useless from @virginmedia next steps unless engineer 3 can fix this tomorrow is #ofcom and seeing if we can switch providers 👋

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I have been one of your customers for years. We have broadband (used constantly) TV (never switched on) Telephone (only Virgin call it)

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

    @virginmedia I honestly can't deal with being passed around departments again. The problem is the WiFi is weak upstairs and I'm paying for a product thats not fit for service. You advertise intelligent pods to boost connections, all I want is to order one to resolve the issue.

  • Lopek Andy Gibson (@Lopek) reported from Darlington, England

    Broadband down yet again. Can I suggest a now slogan @virginmedia... Reliably Unreliable".

  • LumbWriter David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Checked l the internal cabling and all right etc so hopefully just a lose wire somewhere at the cabinet or something the engineer can easily fix. Is there any refund due to lack of service? I pay £67 a month. Can offset that against my mobile phone data

  • Douggy1908 Douggy (@Douggy1908) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia I have issues with everything

  • bradfreeman123 Freeman 🤷🏻‍♂️ (@bradfreeman123) reported

    @TommyCosham94 @virginmedia I’ve used it and it just says ‘ there are no issues ‘

  • hitchhkr Ben Haslewood (@hitchhkr) reported

    @virginmedia just so you know, I waited 28 days to hear back from you on my official complaint. I've heard nothing from you. Your customer service has been diabolical lately.

  • LilyMezza Lily Merrick (@LilyMezza) reported

    @virginmedia not sure how you get your customer service so bad. Being transferred for the 5th time to a diff “dept”! 1st engineer couldn’t setup my 2nd tv box, said they’d send another, they didn’t. All I need is another engineer to come out to finish the setup, seems impossible!

  • windintwillows Adam Willows (@windintwillows) reported

    @virginmedia Are you joking! This is only one issue I have with yourselves and that’s the first thing I have done

  • GKetz83 Gary (@GKetz83) reported

    Since the outage yesterday, my upload speed has been awful. Service status suggests there are no issues, but clearly there still is. G67 area. Any thoughts @virginmedia??

  • hanmaryalice Hannah Mary Alice (@hanmaryalice) reported

    @virginmedia I’m working from home and WiFi isn’t working. I booked an engineer appointment but the earliest they can come out is tomorrow morning.. that doesn’t really help me for today! Please tell me that you’re aware of an outage in the Bedford area and an engineer is on it?

  • monk3ybarz Monk£y Bar$ (@monk3ybarz) reported

    @virginmedia It's going badly - we're now approaching a 48 hours outage. I don't even believe there's even engineers working on it. I think you're lying.

  • ChiefOfOverIt Sarah K (@ChiefOfOverIt) reported

    @virginmedia So When I call in, they say there is no issue and no issue in the area but the hub keeps blinking green and losing connection. Engineer says there is an area issue due to be resolved 19 March!! Is this for real @virginmedia ?

  • rramsey91 Rico Reekz (@rramsey91) reported

    @virginmedia customer service is absolutely shocking. The incompetence of people to carry out a simple instruction is horrifically bad. Now they don’t want to do anything to resolve the issue that was caused by them not simply changing a direct debit as they said they had done.

  • SusanHa85471577 Susan Harrison (@SusanHa85471577) reported

    @virginmedia after being a customer for many years i am appalled by the customer service I have received since yesterday. My contract runs out on the 31st March so I rang to see what deals you could do. After being misquoted twice i am now being called a liar
