  • ema_neale emma (@ema_neale) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reset help earlier it worked, unlike waiting 10 hrs for someone to finally respond to me again via WhatsApp. I was told that there were no offers for current customers yet your website states otherwise!

  • TheFraserPorter 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!

  • VictoriaBarry82 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

  • ZicoPete Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia what channels do I need to go down for a stable connection check in my area, two days in a row internet keeps dropping not ideal when working from home. Thanks.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I was told to log into the Myo2 app to change it myself, but I have been sent no login details and of course if the email address is incorrect it won’t be recognised if I try to register. O2 said we would receive texts with updates on number port timeline but had no communication

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

    @virginmedia She’s sent me a service receipt out

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia Yes that’s fine, I offered to send it back but I was told to use it until the call was listened to. Can you check on the progress of the complaint

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No help needed, thanks - just praising the deal I was given last night 🙌

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia M125, it’s terrible, it’s always going down, if we are both wfh we need to turn any devices off to be able to use our work laptops

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I'm definitely filein complaint 15 days without no TV and 2 kids is really hard work its either that or I'll go with someone else

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia basically I can't do anything on the stream box comes up contact customer care I do then I get absolute no were...look I understand everyone has teething problems but this needs sorting ASAP because different when you need the money I ain't paying for something I can't use said

  • tenchylad Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England

    @OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

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

    @virginmedia Yes spoke to a member of the team, we have been having issues with our wifi. She offered to send another booster & cable out free off charge. Available on our contract. I’ve just received email to say my payments are going up to £60!!

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia sorry for the late reply I smashed my phone I phoned customer service and I'm still waiting for someone to phone me iv had NO TV for about 15 days now

  • purplelime 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.

  • Deggsytweets Deggsy™ (@Deggsytweets) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia I have to wait 24hrs & call back not only is the red light an issue, the WiFi has now stopped working!

  • StevieWalls Steve Walls (@StevieWalls) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    “You don’t need to be there, we can do the cable work outside no problem” That translated into a card through the door saying “Sorry we missed you” and the work not being done. Don’t really understand that one @virginmedia

  • VictoriaBarry82 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

  • iamnickjh Nick (@iamnickjh) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I never confirmed that my account was to be closed but I've just received a final bill. I've tried to contact you about this but have got nowhere. This is a joke

  • mattbidds Matthew Biddle (@mattbidds) reported

    @virginmedia please explain why my mobile phone 4G is faster than WiFi from your hub 3? Will cancel if you don’t do something about…..

  • Ruth26078984 Ruth (@Ruth26078984) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. Yes I was able to do this eventually but it seems a bit of a coincidence that the problem seemedcto get rectified at your end after I had told a helpline operativr that I was considering cancelling my entire Virgin package because I was so frustrated with them.

  • snoo999 Sue Carr (@snoo999) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, 24 days without an emergency line. It is clear @virginmedia don't care.

  • afarmer78 Andrew Farmer (@afarmer78) reported

    @virginmedia The phone replaced! She keeps getting cut off when on 'hold' whilst the customer service operative 'finds' a manager to speak to her! Stop apologising and let's get a solution! #virginneedbettercustomerservice

  • EgoZentric_ Mar. Jordan*=19&6🏆 (@EgoZentric_) reported

    @virginmedia Should I wait any longer, since the last activity was Tuesday? It's not going to go up the queue from what I've seen this week. Appreciate that there has been a lot of demand due to the email issue, but I'm struggling to see a forum resolution.

  • LeeColvin711 Lee Colvin (@LeeColvin711) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, why is your app and website so unbelievably crap? Trying to reschedule my broadband installation and the website keeps telling me to sign in every time I try, even when I’m signed in. Absolute joke and I’m not even a customer yet.

  • bigdaveclarke34 Dave Clarke (@bigdaveclarke34) reported

    @virginmedia I phoned up last night via 150 and it was like talking to a brick wall, I tried explaining on a number of occasions what my problem was & she didn't understand. I just thought all this problem was resolved on the Web chat I had with yourselves recently.
